I can think of a few instances. If you need to make a school (k-12) related purchase or payment such as a shirt order or fundraiser. Church tithes. As many people have said, paying someone or gifting money for an amount more than cash you have on hand. There at still places that don't accept cards, but will accept…

"it's still a clever idea for rockers who are prone to easily losing their picks while they shred."

If it wasn't so expensive I would definitely be interested. I use my iPad more in the kitchen than I thought I ever would and a dedicated stand would be great; something that I could move without touching the iPad with wet/dirty hands. I also don't like the viewing angles the smart cover provides when I'm trying to…

We (my friends and I) always thought it was about vampires. Tyler (also on Rubberneck) is the one I associate with a serial killer.

I use lastpass as well. I can't justify paying the outrageous price for 1password. I'm very happy with it.

There's a difference. Kimchi is fermented and is how cabbage was traditionally stored in the days before modern appliances. It's not unlike sauerkraut. This design is not meant to ferment foods but rather keep them fresh. Kimchi pots aren't double walled nor are sauerkraut crocks because the end goal isn't…

I first read the headline as "The Army's New Mobile Fap Lab..." and thought what the hell. But its a pretty cool idea nonetheless, immediate solutions to immediate problems, way to go army.

Not arguing about better looking, but what other features does a smoke dector need? Perhaps sending a message to authorities if the house catches fire?

For the win!

You actually paid for a Cue Cat? They were giving the thing away to everyone they could in the Dallas area circa 1999-2000. Not downplaying the worthlessness of the Cue Cat, but you win the thread if you paid for one.

I have a mid 2010MBP with a glossy screen and it only bothers me occasionally. Most of the time I have no problem with it.

I don't buy it, that's not intelligent mockery. Though I'm not defending KarmaTornado's comment, just the reply Cakapoo made. There's a reasonable and unreasonable way to respond, and calling someone a cunt is pretty unreasonable. Looking back I could have lost the toolymctoolson on my reply.

I know I'm not supposed to feed trolls but I can't help it in this case. Your comment is the kind of bullshit that this site and the commenters used to not put up with before the redesign. There's a difference between giving a reasonable critique of a comment and being a complete tool. TOOLY MCTOOLSON (LOOK, I CAN…

I used to untill I had to begin wearing slacks over jeans. Most jeans have the small 5th pocket that is great for a pocket watch, yet slacks do not and a pocket watch in a full sized pocket can get damaged. I had one open in a pocket inadvertently and the cover torn off the hinges by my movement, and I stopped…

Just curious Tony, is there a time when you unplug for a little or does the need to get offline not really come up? I would think that a blogging job or online work would have a tendency to spill over to non-work areas of life and special diligence would need to be paid to separating work from free time.

But you can have 16GB! Just make four separate purchases of $25 and you're set.

Back in the days of stars, when the image was used on Giz for the first time, someone was starred for knowing the answer to that question.

I have generally agreed with you about the corded/cordless tool debate. Until recently, when I got my first cordless drill set (ridgid 18volt Lithium ion). I now use my cordless drill and impact driver more around the house for small jobs and my old trusty DeWalt corded drill only comes out for big jobs and I find…

Taint that the truth.

"but it's already spend hundreds..." I would wager that "spent" would sound a little better in that sentence.
