tries the new instrument & plays Stairway to Heaven.. of course!!

You misunderstood. I am criticizing the form factor & price point. They are selling you an expensive charger and you still have to put your phone neatly on it like you'd do with a traditional dock which would cost $20. Follow me?

Wireless charging is convenient when the charger form factor is a slim flat surface and quite larger than the device to be charged. So you "throw it on there" and it charges. If I'm supposed to put my phone in an exact position you might as well give me a conductive charger, a connector dock or whatnot. People who…

Actually in asia they wouldn't even put MA after Ni hao, that's a westernized Chinese way of asking someone are you good? Chinese would just ask: You good? Ni hao?

No, you can't take the tip for granted. Expectation is already low; bring my order without messing it up and in a timely manner. You don't even have to check in with me to see if everything is ok. Then you get your 18%. Having a bad day, kitchen is swamped, your bf dumped you? I don't give a shit and I still tip but…

Chinese New Year! with time leading to it and time right after it's pretty much a manufacturing blackout for a whole month. (starting next week) This indicates that Blackberry has everything ready and they will produce right after CNY. And of course they don't want to air ship all those units eating into the profit…

Never had one, never will, CE product developer here.

I rent a house and deal directly with the landlord. House is old and stuff keeps breaking. I notify the landlord but he's very slow to response and when he offers help he tries to fix things himself and/or with his son in law. The results are often bad and failures re-appear in short time. How do I get him to fix…

Drink this after that workout!

Yeah, I don't think what happened is that idiotic either writer. Although I never heard the quote and I could tell it's a "funny shirt" due to the oversized name tag design, I can totally see some people freaking out.

Let's all eat shit, billions of flies can't be wrong.

Screw that. I've helped birds with a nest once cuz my wife thought they were so cute with their little babies and such. You know what's left when birds leave the nest? Bird mites! Billions of these parasites looking for a new blood source. Your don't want bird mites around your house. Trust me.

How he screws up the solo, good thing nobody knows the song yet.

This site is in Xian. I am surprised you didn't mention that it's inside a giant white pyramid, one bigger than the great pyramid of Giza. Very few know the largest pyramids are in Xian, China. When I was living in Hong Kong I talked to an archeologist acquaintance about it. He told me that the location of the tomb…

PlayerOne: it means I beat 500 other hopefuls to camp out of a Best Buy on November 16th, 2006.

$20 / annual

Is the 65" Samsung LED TV for real? I went to Best Buy add and it wasn't in there. So confused.

I second that. MTR is fantastic. It's clean, modern. British knows how to make a metro system and Chinese is clever enough to continue on.

Do you believe active noise cancelling technology on headphones really has a benefit in terms of audio quality, or a well balanced, loud enough speaker within a good ear seal would be ample?

Totally, and especially on Xbox360 you're limited to console's capability to transfer chat audio via the controller which is super low bandwidth compared to PS3's USB (or Bluetooth) So even if you calibrate the headset mic you still get/transmit crappy chat audio.
