I’m looking into these kind of systems as possible branch server replacements. Right now we have file/print/AD servers at every branch, and at $2000/pop they’re an expensive replacement proposition. I’d like to centralize our file storage, but still have a server at every branch for printing, DHCP, DNS, a read-only AD…

My wife bought me a pair of electric shufflers in the hope they would suffice for our Cards Against Humanity deck (with all expansions). Both of them broke on the first run-through. I have no idea how I’m going to shuffle all those cards.

I would, but she’s still asleep when I leave for work...

This headline is such a lie. I was trying to figure out how you were going to melt metal with a 6 volt battery. I am disappoint.

My wife prefers the Shibari method.

I hope this release includes the fix for the Chrome printing bug that would cause the print preview window to be an empty white box with no controls of any kind. My users are out back sharpening their pitchforks.

Let's be fair: Assholes, who happen to be Cardinals fans. #NotAllCardinalsFans

No "John Dies at the End"? No "This Book is Full of Spiders"? These are genuinely scary books here. They make you laugh out loud, then worry that something may have heard you.

In St. Louis, MO you can get 100Mbps for $54 from Charter. It's not Google Fiber, but it's a better deal than anything else on that 2nd-place chart up there.

"The best bits have been exactly when the game surprised me," Many a True Nerd said. "In a world as big and sometimes buggy as Fallout, things I've never seen before can happen, and it accidentally creates a fantastic new experience. My favorite moment was when I discovered that, for some reason, the giant robot…

So... you do realize Minecraft is not made in America, right? Mojang is a Swedish company.

Is it just me, or is this reminiscent of Metro - without borders between the tiles?

Let's see. I spend about $80 on Charter Cable (40/4), $90 for Dish TV. No Netflix, but I do pay Crunchyroll $72/yr ($6/month) for Anime without commercials. The only game I pay for is SecondLife (yes, still) - that's $75/yr x2 for premium accounts for myself and my wife, and $40/month for the "land" we "own". Cell…

Over, for two simple reasons:
1: TP with patterns printed on it only has the pattern printed on the outside. If you put it on underhanded, you've got white stuff showing out the back.
2: That's the way they teach it in the military. I'll never be able to even accidentally hang it the wrong way ever again.

I don't know your site, but those sites I want to support (mostly webcomics, granted) are on my whitelist and show ads. There's also a default-on "Non-Intrusive Ad" whitelist built in. Make sure your ad network is part of it. If they aren't, encourage them to comply with the spec. You get your ad revenue, we don't get…

Or euros/square meter, more likely.

One word: Graboids.

"As God as my Witness, I thought turkeys could fly!"

Alas, I don't have photos or anything, but decades ago I rented a ground-floor apartment in a four-family building with an intercom and security door. The landlord had made the mistake of running the front door intercom wiring for the upstairs apartment though my living room closet rather than behind a wall. I took…
