That'd be great. I'll do the same.

I've been using Picasa for years now. I absolutely hate the program, but the idea of starting over is daunting. I started to move to PhotoBucket, but that seemed a little persnickety, as well. I just want to store my photos in an orderly way with plenty of batch controls. I'm probably not in a league where I need…

I just roasted a batch of beans from Ecuador. Fresh roast prepared in a French press? You're exactly right. I'll probably drink nine cups this afternoon. This stuff is amazing. I wonder if Lifehacker has ever done anything on roasting green coffee beans. By gum, I'll search.
Good source of info here, by the way. This…

Bottle of Poland Spring water right here. The irony is that it's really tap water. Wife buys a bottle, I snatch it away when it's empty.

We actually have a rule, on the books, that states "no skorts." Our unwritten rule is that the skort rule is stupid. Not that I wear one myself, mind you. As far as you know.

Well, crap. I entered my symptoms and the app told me I'm menopausal. I KNEW it!

The medical community changes its mind about our need for water as much as it does the health benefits/risks/you-will-die for coffee. Everything has to be taken with a grain of salt, but is one grain of salt enough? I feel confident that if my body needs water, it'll let me know in some way. That being said, now that…

Ah, you find the best conversations in here. I didn't really learn anything, but by golly I was entertained for five minutes. Me, I once left my world famous American Chopped Suey (it's famous because there's almost nothing in it) out on the sideboard for 24 hours. Didn't want to throw it out because as a bachelor,…

Have you tried ighome.com yet?

Figures. Maybe I'll give PM another go. I was having random crashes, but as I recall, the developer was pretty helpful with troubleshooting.

I'm looking into that, myself. Pretty good breakdown here.

I don't think the Android app sucks at all. I turn to it quite often, in fact. It's a little different in the way you fill in your password fields, but once you get a rhythm down, it's not hard at all. It looks a lot better with the latest update. I haven't used it much over the past couple days, but I've never…

Wow. People are actually quite rational in here. On the official Lastpass blog, users were freaking out over the changes, using ALL CAPITAL LETTERS and insisting that they are done with LP forever. The problem, I think, was that a few things were turned off that probably should've been left on. It felt very unfamiliar…

Classic Google. You just can't get comfortable with any of their products because they're always monkeying with things.

Try SEWare Iron. It's Chrome without the privacy concerns. Good little browser.

Former Firefox fan here. I'm with everybody else, the browser just got too bloated and unreliable. I'm not a big Chrome fan, although it's hard for me to pin down the exact reasons. Maybe it's my growing distaste for Google and its practices. I don't know if this is allowed within the framework of the question, but I…

The newspaper I work for got us a bag phone somewhere around 1996. Of course, all the photographers and reporters had to share that one phone so it was essentially useless. By 1997 or so, there were four or five individual phones you could grab on your way out to an assignement. They had that little antenna that could…

Of course, here's where somebody points out that as a newspaper employee, I have plenty of reason to be pessimistic: Nobody reads newspapers anymore!

Interesting topic. My first impulse was to declare that in my job, pessimism would be a killer. I'm a newspaper reporter. After thinking about it, I figure we display healthy doses of pessimism every damn day. Specifically: "Aw, crap. I just know those TV guys have more info that we do. And that paper from the next…
