Well, of course it does, because French.

I was thinking about the filler/muffler relationship as well. I haven't paid attention to all the cars I've ever driven (I used to work for a rental company, so that's not a small number), but all the ones I can remember do have the filler on the opposite side from the muffler and exhaust outlet. I don't know what…

My '95 Altima's original engine was interference. I was lucky, though; the mechanic who replaced it found a pristine engine from another '95.

I had a 1st-gen '95 Nissan Altima, and it was designed with significant negative camber on the rear wheels. It had this feature called "super toe control", which acted as a passive 4-wheel-steering system which engaged under severe maneuvers, especially relatively tight turns at high speed. It had a rear tire wear…

I once built my own PoE injector for an old 802.11a WAP which required 5V @ 4 amps (yeah, this thing was a massive current hog). I was mounting it on the wall in a location which didn't have a power socket handy. I powered it off of a 12V hard drive connection from my server, and found a power regulator for the far…

As far as I know, yes it does.

You can go even further than that. Use curly braces and commas to create several subdirectories inside the same directory: mkdir -p /path/to/dir/{dir1,dir2,dir3...dir#}

It just builds your immune system, something we all need these days.

It's 5GB of "4G" data, then you get throttled to 2G/3G after that.

I had 2 hassles when I set up my 2-factor auth just now. 1. It wouldn't let me copy and paste the recovery key out of the browser into my secure password manager, and 2. It wouldn't let me copy and paste back into the browser to verify the key. Idiotic, when you consider that a keylogger would have just gotten access…

The very next sentence after the one you quoted: "Ice Cream Sandwich and Jelly Bean users have quicker access to their app switcher through a dedicated button."

The Sony PIC-1000, the first Magic Cap PDA.

Doubtful. First off, it sounds like it's booting the ISO, which is a read-only CD image. Most flash media don't suffer wear and tear from simply reading bits. Secondly, if it works with images on your phone's SD card, if the card does eventually die, just replace the card with no damage to the phone's flash.

The screens in front- or rear-projection systems can also burn in; I think rear-projection screens are more susceptible to it due to their closer proximity to the light source. It would most likely take far longer to burn in a projected image than what you get on a phosphor-based screen, but it can happen.

I don't know of any consumer-level routers which can do this, not without serious custom firmware anyway. I know of a few high-dollar business-focused units which can do this sort of thing, but only with wired connections, not with WiFi or 3g/4g. It's certainly possible for the enterprising hacker to roll his own, but…

The 800XL was my 2nd computer. My first was the original Atari 800 with the 48K upgrade. I started with the 410 cassette drive, then later got one of the 810 floppy drives. I had an Epson dot-matrix printer that needed a converter to go from the Atari serial bus (yeah, I think Atari beat USB to the punch by a couple…

Am I remembering incorrectly, or did Gmail not count the contents in Trash against your total mailbox size until recently?

Yeah. I can't get the home page to load at all, big white empty.

What the heck does 2-factor auth have to do with political parties or money? That sort of talk belongs on HuffPost, not LifeHacker.

I've been using Hacker's Keyboard for several months, and it offers everything that PC Keyboard has plus real Control, Alt, and arrow keys, which I use when I connect to a Linux server or a Windows remote desktop.
