VOTE: Nexus 4

This is my problem. What makes it even sillier is that I've yet to actually build a computer (I've been making due with laptops because of a lack of funds and a mobility requirement, both of which will hopefully change soon).

I don't know how I ever missed that. Thanks, you're awesome!

I've been using this since shortly after it came out, and I love it. I have two problems with it, though, both of which are extremely minor. I use two Gmail accounts, and when I tap the notification saying I've got an email, it just opens the Gmail app (with whichever account was last used) instead of taking me to the…

When I first started shaving, I had to use a mirror to make sure I was doing it right/not missing anything. After I got used to it, I just shaved in the shower because, by that point, I shaved by touch. I normally couldn't see myself well in the mirror anyway for a variety of reasons, so learning how to do it…

I forgot that I've also got a Scene set up so I can switch sound profiles (Normal, Silent, Quiet Hours) whenever I like, plus it tells me which sound profile is currently active, and it has buttons for me to start my flashlight app and turn on GPS, since that GPS profile doesn't always work.

I don't often use anything other than my computer for "real" productivity. There have been times I used TeamViewer from my phone (Nexus 4) or tablet (Asus TF700T) to get at something on my computer, and I often read/reply to emails from my phone, but there's very, very little I use my phone for (outside of phone…

This is my first comment with this system so far, so bear with me.

Unless a recipe specifically calls for me to peel a vegetable, I don't. The only vegetables I ever even wash are potatoes. Then again, I pretty much never eat my vegetables raw, so that may be part of the reason, but if I'm cooking them, I don't see why it really matters all that much. I just call it an immune system…

1. I love to cook and have been cooking on a budget for like two years now, so I'm definitely used to that. I prefer eating at home anyway, so I don't think that'll be a hard adjustment to make.

The Germanic Studies course of study I'm planning to pursue is primarily philology and linguistics. Indiana University apparently has exceptional placement for Ph.D. recipients, at least within Germanic Studies, and teaching German at a university has been my dream for a while now. I'm prepared to do whatever it takes…

I'm most likely going to be in grad school at Indiana University in Bloomingon, IN starting in the fall. I'll be in the Germanic Studies Ph.D. program (well, getting a master's first). Does anyone have any advice for grad school in general, or being in Bloomington/at IU specifically?

Shirts, undershirts, underwear, socks: once

I'll be headed to grad school (Ph.D. program in German Studies) in the fall, though I don't know where yet because all the schools I applied to have yet to respond, though it seems fairly likely that I'll end up in Bloomington, IN. Any advice about living on an extremely tight budget, grad school in general, the…

I use mine primarily for browsing the internet, reading PDFs (school stuff and tabletop gaming books), and taking notes in class. Of course I also do the typical social network and Google Reader consumption.

I've got a little stiff brush that came with my juicer for cleaning it, and it works wonderfully on my hand-held not-box grater, even if I let it sit for a while.

I've been using BeWeather for quite a while, primarily because of the widgets and the customizability thereof. WeatherBug seems way too cluttered for me.

That makes sense, and I figured that's why most people would use Ctrl+L over F6, I just find it easier to remember for some weird reason.

Really? That's weird. Most of the ones I've seen still have them without a button combo, but I don't examine the keyboards super thoroughly every time I happen to be in an electronics store, so I guess I just don't really notice.
