Shouldn’t this say “Google’s $150 Photoshop supporting Nik Software Collection is Now Free”

This could easily be used to package or wrap small toys / gifts

So, we should continue to support and encourage the idea of learning towards a test (and test results) rather than learning towards how this will help us in real life? Great, let’s help everyone to get A’s but no one to be able to do anything with the information that they are taking in!

Study to pass test ≠ Understand…

We live about 1/2 mile out of town, and the DSL & Cable companies are unwilling to extend out this far. Our only options are cell network (poor reception) or satellite. Both of these are data capped and extremely expensive. Given that satellite internet providers provide you with a modem but not router, it seems like…

When I criticized the BMI system he commented that under no conditions could someone who is 5’10” and 210lbs not be obese. Then I think he caught himself, and as an aside he stated that he is underweight and that is unhealthy as well. Actually, I’m not surprised about either his view or his being underweight as he…

You also get continually increasing prices, awful customer service, and modems that go out and need to be reset every other day... and that’s on business level service no less!

Why is it that most people here assume that to be in shape you have to have huge muscles on your upper body (bench press, lifting, etc.) Most of my muscle is in my lower body. My workout preference is biking across hill country with my bike continually on the hardest gear. As such my legs and butt are pure massive…

Super easy for you maybe. For the majority of the population not-so-much.

The problem is they are clearly muscular. When you have a “dadbod” it’s easy to mistake the muscle with some fat over it for just being fat.

For reference: I am currently 5’10” and 200 lbs. By the BMI scale I should be overweight and nearing obese (28-29% body fat). However, in reality I am right around 24% body fat which the BMI scale says I should be 170 lbs.

Thank you. I have been saying this for a long time. My wife has commented that my stomach has been a bit too big and that I weigh a lot more than I should (5’10” 210lbs), and BMI says I have been obese. My (super skinny & underweight) doctor has made similar comments. I’ve known I have had a large layer of stomach…

I apologize for the comment. I adusted it when I realized it was off base. I work in the cell phone industry, for the last about 4 years the only way you could get an iPhone at launch was to either preorder it really quickly before the pre-orders were sold out, or wait up to 2 months for what you order to ship out.…

And how many years ago was that? 9 years.
Compare that to Apple doing that year after year after year after year? I think your comment that “Apple usually tries to keep their supply in line with demand, actually. Nintendo, however, might be a better tech example” isn’t quite accurate.

That’s hilarious because other than their Amiibos, Nintendo products are rarely out of stock or artificially “on sale”, yet Apple continually doesn’t have enough stock on hand of its newest devices often for months after they launch.

I have huge issues with the current state of the medical care system’s acceptance and use of the BMI method. BMI stands for Body Mass Index. It is supposed to be a gauge of body fat percentage (a BMI of 27 represents 27% body fat), yet it doesn’t actually measure body fat. It only takes into account height and weight.…

There were a lot of falicies utilizing pro religious comments as examples for wrong thinking. It almost seems like the infographic maker was trying to use his infographic as an attempt to create a straw man case against religion.

No approval for my comment? I guess I shouldn't be surprised considering I've learned time and again that the lifehacker / kinja daily deals site continues to be one of the biggest culprits. After all, why acknowledge that RadioShack, Family Dollar, or any other store / site that doesn't pay for referrals has a…

Also to consider is that Amazon pays people to refer customers to them. So if say they have a discounted price on a product but another site has a slightly better price, some referring blogs / deal sites will continue to refer people to the Amazon site rather than the cheapest even when it is pointed out to them that…

So, let me see if I understand this. Pay $20 per month ($240/yr) for 10 channels. Let's say 2-3 you are actually interested in. Great, but not all the channels you want are there. So you pay another $5 per month for another bundle with 1-2 channels you want. Now you need 2-3 more bundles to really get most of the…

I'm really surprised that One Plus One was allowed in the standings considering it is NOT available to the general public. It is a "by invitation only" device that only those in the know can even get access to.
