@Flail: Ouch! Math hurts!
@Terry: Well, before this update, most Android app reviews were from folks who actually tried and probably paid for the apps or didn't, if it sucked. This kind of kicks the cornerstone out of the whole "open source" market structure.
If Android apps were fully tested and required draconian approvals like some other "markets" require, a 1 hour return wouldn't be unreasonable. Since they're not and I don't think the Android community as a whole wants them to be (we're the testers—why stifle innovation?!), the 24 hr testing period was and is…
@AyUaxe: Almost forgot the 12 Y'ats of Christmas, too. Happy Humid Holidays, y'all!
@Jason Fitzpatrick: N'awlins, baybe! Search for Benny Grunch and the Bunch—Santa and His Reindeer Usedta Live Right Here!
@jupiterthunder: when TVs become bluetooth or wifi controllable, instead of infrared, they'll be smartphone controllable.
It's a monitor stand and "stuff" holder, not really a desk. Looks pretty obvious that Teermac uses cordless inputs, probably leaning back in comfortable, zen-like appreciation of the natural beauty that is burled maple. Not conducive to work? Well, guess that depends on the work and the mind doing it.
salt + humidity = damp, briny mess. Clearly not for deep south and other humid climes, nor for live or recently live foliage, which the salt will certainly kill/turn brown.
"No. Nothing to this at all." aka "nothing to see here, move along" These people couldn't tell the truth if it spewed out of their mouths like vomitus. TSA is doing it's passive/aggressive best to ensure that the public is not allowed to show them for the ineffectual goons they are. BTW, this rant is directed at…
@okusi: There were 8 lines of important info. For some situations, it's best to put the most important thing at the end—like a booby trap.
@SpinalPap: fries/gravy/cheese? Ask for it at Parkway Tavern and Bakery in NOLA—dayum, it is so good! Best roast beef poboy on the planet, ergo the best gravy for any related use.
@Snafu77: Usually, an applicant with substantial experience will not apply if the job is really something they don't want. Employers who use the "over-qualified" excuse are frankly displaying a lack of creativity and probably as noted elsewhere, some level of insecurity. It is fundamentally and excuse, not a genuine…
@Snafu77: glaeven's advice is sound and practical. Yours reaks of the customer I either hate or love to be behind in line—because you'll either delay me (hate) or get shuffled off to a manager after which my pleasant demeanor will seem all the more pleasant (love).
In addition to disseminating the UCSF letter to passengers and TSA personnel, all should be sure to ask loudly all TSA personnel if they know how much radiation they're getting by operating and working around these scanners—in addition to the luggage x-ray scanners they're already around all the time. Foment…
For things that aren't too big, regular ziplock bags work pretty well and if you get the "freezer" type, they're pretty heavy duty as well. While you can't press out as much air as you could vacuum out, maybe that's not an entirely bad thing, if you want things to fluff up again or not be permanently creased. I…
We now, officially have the dummest gummint of any developed nation on the planet. None of these measures would have been effective to stop the underwear bomber or any other person using that type or higher end plastic explosives. This is just the stupid, ineffectual posturing and flailing of an ineffective…
Neti is the single best preventive and remedial treatment I've found. There is a brand name product commonly available at big chain pharms that offers the buffered saline pre-mixed (a rip off in itself, but good to start with) and either a dishwasher safe neti pot (not as cute as the one pictured) or squeeze bottles…
Much ado about nothing. Frankly, a mediocre letter. Is this really what we've come to? Actually, I know it is—I'm dealing right now with a bunch of people who don't read past the first 2-3 lines of emails marked very important and containing serious requirements and deadlines. My next epistle is likely to be…
I really liked and was pretty good at graffitti on my old Palm VII, but the implementation I've seen on Android left much to be desired. Has it gotten better?
