The Belkin and Netgears were never widely supported by alternative firmwares; it seems it was predominately the Linksys and Buffalo routers that were.

I haven't used TED in quite some time in favor of ShowRSS as I'm pretty sure a while back the developer stopped working on it. ShowRSS is a website where you add the shows you want to watch to your list to which the site generates a custom RSS feed. Put that RSS feed into your torrent client of choice and the episodes…

There is on *important* thing to remember. Without the location services, find my iPad doesn't work (as it can't tell where it is). If you think you might use this feature at some point in the future, I wouldn't disable it entirely.

If you can't install software on the machine, you can always download the portable version (it dumps all the necessary files to a folder. Delete the folder and the program is gone).

No problem! Hope you enjoy; I've been running XMBC in the living room for quite some time now. I tried Boxee and went back. Never tried Plex, but XBMC does everything I need it to.

Great ideas, here's what I've got. As much as I'd love to setup/learn/fiddle with a linux server, in this situation I cannot.

On the iPhone I use LooseIt. The nicest part is that you can scan the bar codes of the items your eating so you don't have to hunt through the database to find the food your eating. They also continue to expand what services they integrate with.

Are you trying to add the touchscreen capabilities for Windows 8 purposes?

The article is a little old, but should still work:

Did you let the glue set for ~24 hours before you put it back in the fridge? And how big of an item are you trying to glue back together?

I'm not sure where I stand, but I know it described my ex girlfriend to a T. While the validity of some methods of determining personality traits are "questionable" (astrology), MB seems to have a bit of actual psychology behind it.

If dd-wrt doesn't support it (or tomato), there's a good chance that alternative firmware doesn't exist for your router.

Why plex for the "server"? Why not just share the files/folders out and let the various devices access them directly?

Google tries to pull your location each time as you might be in a different place since the last time you opened google.

Could also be a cookie or setting is messed up. As suggested, using a portable browser is the way to go (first) to see where the issue lies.

I'm using XBMC with the FreeCable plugin and the Amazon plugin. The FreeCable plugin allows you to access multiple different channel's content from within XMBC.

I have a large amount of data (<3 TB and growing) on a windows 2008 R2 server that I need to backup on a weekly basis. In preparation for this, I bought a drobo that I can expand as my storage needs grow.

There's no fee for gift cards and the like; only cash.
