"it shows us all five continents as a single archipelago"

Also, not everyone's UPS/Fedex deliverer is that reliable. Depending on the number of packages they have to deliver that day, the ones that deliver to my home address will usually show up anywhere between 12 and about 6.

Aside from likely speaking clearer when dictating directly to the phone (as opposed to the more natural, but less clear, talking to voicemail), It's also likely got to do with audio quality. Messages going to voicemail are compressed and are not always devoid of background noise or interference. Usually when…

Actually, it's not usually formatting that is the issue here. The drive does hold less data (according to the OS) than is stated on the packaging. This is due to the difference between the SI prefix Giga used by hard drive manufacturers and the general software/computer prefix Giga. A Gigabyte according to hard drive…

In addition to what Whitson said, there are some games (like tf2) which steam won't allow to be installed anywhere but your main steam folder.

I Kind of want to show this to people I know and see how many actually get it. Also, I think two of the more amusing things on the FAQ is that dihydrogen monoxide is a major component of acid rain (so true), and that "couples that never ingest DHMO often find that their marriage suffers" (also very true).

Ok, makes sense. It was just an estimate on my part (since I didn't actually know what/how much the referenced plan cost). I was just pointing it out because there have been several posts by people who didn't realize that there was an extra $30 per smartphone.

This would actually cost $500 + 45($30) = 1850/month, since each additional phone costs an extra $30/month. So if I understand what you currently pay, it would cost you an extra $500/month.

Make sure you check whether what you're measuring in MBps or Mbps. 3MBps down is the same as 24 Mbps down.

I did get it, and was making my own joke.

Actually, one male and one could be very productive. With two females, it would be nearly impossible (without crazy future science) for them to be productive.

Ah, that makes sense. I only use GNUemacs, so I (wrongly) assumed it was in most variations of emacs.

I think they are implying that it's either the first 7 inch tablet with beats audio, or the first android tablet with beats audio. The touchpad is neither of these (though you can install android on it, it's not an "android tablet")

I feel like I'm supposed to unfocus my eyes so I can see a hidden picture/message.

Note, this should work in any emacs, version dependant, regardless of whether you are on linux or mac (might work in windows GUI version as well, though I haven't tested it).

I said "usually" about the bootloader unlock being easy. Some companies (Asus comes to mind) offer an unlock tool, which lets you unlock your bootloader , almost as easy, if not easier, than doing a fastboot oem unlock.

No, unlocking the bootloader and rooting are two entirely separate (but usually related) things. Depending on the phone, you can sometimes root without unlocking the bootloader. In many phones for which the bootloader is difficult/impossible to unlock, the root is gained through an exploit. The easiest way to root is…

Yup, for those that don't know, it's called the Streisand Effect (according to Wikipedia, though):

It's not compatible with android <4.2 because android 4.2 is the only one with lockscreen widgets (without 3rd party apps / mods). He simply made a lockscreen widget, not a lockscreen replacement.
