Sweet. Ethercodes designers, any chance of adding code recognition for LaTex and R?

@comrade_leviathan: Ah, good point. My question should have been why would the person who got a picture of the culprit give the photo to the police instead of 4chan?

Someone photographs the guy burning on the rail, but no one gets a picture of the guy who threw him on it?!

@Telecinision: I skip the cloning step myself, opting to just copy all my files to an external drive. However, I'm confident my docs, jpegs, and mp3s will all open up fine on any other machine and any software I use will reinstall without a problem. For others, those assumptions may be risky enough that cloning is…

Ubuntu noobie question: Can anyone point me to an up-to-date, easy-to-follow, set of instructions for installing adobe flash player for firefox (32 bit)?

I use itsdeductible.com to track my item donations, along with my monetary ones. It synchs with turbotax.com, making that section of my taxes easy.

An app like this would be great if it would work, but I don't see a working version for years. As mentioned in the article, the fatal flaw is getting the data. Restaurants have no motivation for posting honest wait times. Same for users. I imagine I'm waiting in line at a restaurant with friends. I'm going to go…

Doctor Doom invented armor comparable to Tony Stark's, spells on par with Dr. Strange, and all sorts of ways to get the little people to do the will of DOOM.

Sorry the image is so big. It should be smaller.

For NPR, I've been using Public Radio Live Stream. Ad driven (what I use) or upgrade for ad free. I can store my favorite NPR stations from across the U.S. [www.appbrain.com]

The first "Yes!" depends heavily on Stephen Covey's Habit 5: "Seek First to Understand, then to be Understood". You have to make sure you really understood what the person was saying before you can express what sentiment you agreed with.

Wow, Google really wants us to be able to use one inbox for everything. If we did, that would make for great marketing data for them. I still believe in having a separate accounts for work, personal mail, and bacn.

@bergroup: Good point. It's not as simple as "I value privacy". My value of privacy is greater than my value of using foursquare. However, my value of privacy is less than my value of Google's "near me now" tool.

@lazymoomin: If you are receiving Word documents, OO frequently messes up the formatting. Word is worth it in that case. An alternative is Softmaker ( [www.softmaker.com] ) which is cheaper and renders Word docs better than OO. (Note cheaper depends on deals offered by your school. I can get MS Office for $10…

@isuee94: I should have clarified I was referring to calls from smartphones only. Naturally Skype isn't hamstrung on a laptop. (Moto Droid Froyo Unrooted)

Not all of these are free. They have Jackie Chan's "Fearless Hyena", which is a spectacular old-school kung-fu movie, as a $1.99 rental. That price seems double what it should be in these Red Box days.

Calls via wi-fi is huge when traveling out of the country where getting a cell signal may be impossible, but getting wi-fi is doable. Skype and GoogleVoice are both hamstrung that they won't make calls without a cell signal (texting still works). Fring works on wi-fi only, but you have to convince your Skype friends…

@ron.smits: Agreed. The interface is very slick and intuitive, but the "how to tie" part is pure text. If you are already familiar with the knots and just need reminders — or enjoy the history of the knot — then this app would be good for you. For anyone trying to learn the knots, it's not that helpful. Uninstall.…

@budboyy2k: Here you go.
