Good to see I'm not the only one who takes a bottle of water everywhere, though I gotta say mine is a lot less fancy.

I remember the Xbox 360 headset sometimes producing a kind of echo effect. If the XBOne turns out to have a similar effect on some occasions, would it be possible to use this to activate someone else's Kinect voice control and sign them out? Now that would be trolling!

These aren't trolls. Trolls aren't that bad and don't directly target an individual (except sometimes a celeb whose fans they want to make fun of). Trolls are not about hurting or excluding people. A troll is someone who likes to do stuff which are funny to some and annoying to some othersothers, for example wear fake

There are, of course, other ways of determining whether or not someone is family. But those are complicated and necessarily involve human intervention (and those humans have to be paid). Equating last names, on the other hand, can be done very easily by a computer and is cheaper as a result.

The name "freezone.reboot" suggests that this will create an infinite reboot loop. Am I getting close?

It actually works by changing people's driving habits. People report increases in their MPG "without changing their driving habits" because it happens subconsciously and they don't notice it. The same would happen if you give the driver some lucky hat and somehow manage to convince him/her that it increases the car's

Recently downloaded this game, haven't really played it yet. I wonder how much I can do since I rely on WiFi for my internet, but I'm definitely gonna try to capture some portals near WiFi hotspots!

Elitebook 8530w here, 4 years old, never had problems and still feels high-end. I guess with this thing being military-grade, drop proof and all it's only natural that they also put the most reliable components they have in it. After all, what's the point in a mechanically unbreakable pc that electronically breaks in

There are in fact smaller phones. Apple's iPhone always stayed small because Apple has always emphasized single-handed operation. If you want an Android you're currently stuck with a midrange or low-end phone, but unless you're gonna do heavy gaming or other resource-intensive stuff, a midrange will be more than

Usually I turn to WOT in this kind of situation, but it seems they have no known reputation for virus4u. I don't even know if the site really exists. Just use your common sense and something like NoScript when visiting the site and you should be safe against viruses I guess...

That would be really awesome if it could be done. I've never owned a pc that wasn't a laptop, ant that's basically the only reason why I never built a pc myself.

I too have the habit of keeping boxes, at least for expensive stuff. Some I've eventually thrown away when I realized warranty had run out years ago, but there are probably still some 10-year old boxes gathering dust that I've forgotten about.

You mean Faraday bags? :P

Don't know the show and I don't have a thing for rednecks, but I do like the idea of a WarioWare-style mobile game. Especially if it gets decent (i.e. Mega Party Games-style) multiplayer. Sign me up if/when this comes to Android!

On Linux it does support themes. The themes are not app-specific but rather apply to all apps which use the same GUI toolkit (GTK), which is used by more than half of all Linux apps and GTK theming options are natively built into most Linux desktops. On Windows GTK isn't that widespread, and I don't know if theming is

It's GTK so on a Linux+Gnome desktop it's properly themed by default. If you want to see what it looks like on Windows, you can select the Redmond theme (spoiler: it looks mostly like Windows 95). This theme also seems to be the fallback theme when your theme of choice cannot be loaded (for example when you use a

I would think that our legs wouldn't realistically be able to get our bicycles anywhere near the speed limit except in residential blocks. Of course, I live in Europe, so things may be different in America, but I can hardly imagine a car-centric nation like the USA has lower speed limits than we do. Or is the speed

Let me add PewPew 2 to that list. Surprised that it has never been in this list (at least according to the changelog included in this article). Seriously, Temple Run and Tiny Wings fade in comparison. Even the first (and free) PewPew is an amazing game.

Personally I'm not exactly fond of the basic premise behind iTunes that data should be managed by the app that uses it and be as inaccessible/unreadable as possible to people with text editors and other semi-universal setting editors. They want everything locked down and full of DRM-like measures. I think that's why a

I think drive-by-wire will never be as reliable as mechanical linkage. I know the automotive industry has ridiculous reliability requirements on their electronics but still if some supply voltage is cut or some backup systems fail the car becomes uncontrollable. With mechanical linkage you actually have to break a
