Try switching to Yule then, thirteen day celebration starting on the 21st. It's got no ties to any one religion though some religions have traditions that go along with it. You can give gifts have a feast spend time with your loved ones, all without any religion involved. The only other tradition other than…

I haven't celebrated Christmas in years, but rather I celebrate what it was designed to try and replace. Yule! Yule is pretty much a winter holiday that spans multiple religions, it starts on the 21st and continues for 13 days, each day doesn't have to be a feat or gift giving but rather just a celebration. The ENTIRE…

plenty of annoyances, but they are pitifully inconsequential when compared to what annoys me about iOS and Windows Mobile, although 80% of what annoys me with windows mobile has to do with how ugly the interface is and 30% of iOS's annoyance comes from it needing iTunes to do anything at all with another 50% being…

Don't forget if you own the home you can build certain things into the wall or even give your walls and ceiling mounting boxes(practically the same thing) with some basic home skills. If you are using the walls I'd recommend you mount a box in the wall and with the ceiling I'd use a canister speaker. If you don't own…

Is this a recipe for punch, Jungle Juice, or finding out who at your party is the "M'ere" guy? Just sit back and wait for them to yell out "HEY! M'ere" after a single cup of this stuff.

I use mine as a small productivity device as well as a music and movie player for when I'm on the road as a passenger, but since I like to do so much at one and the touch interface doesn't help with my productivity I still have my other computers. My pride and joy is my Sager laptop built on a Clevo base. I don't care…

Microsoft better get it in gear, their slow clunky metro interface that gets in the way of doing anything really productive while obsolete when it was premiered continues to have better options coming out to replace it cutting into their market share. Seriously what were they thinking by catering to individuals who…

A couple of years back I got quite the laugh, I went through a Saks 5th avenue and looked at their clothes, Their prices were absurd! But I noted the brands and the styles, then I walked a quarter of the way around the mall to the JC Penny, I found identical clothes there, same brands, same styles, and the price was…

Just like a ton of feathers and a ton of lead. However a pound of gold weights less than a pound of steel. NE ways, the statement of "this weighs more than that" is 100% of the time a "By Volume" statement, one liter of fat weights less than one liter of muscle or one pint of fat weights less than one pint of muscle…

What you described is not BMI but rather skin flap test and yes it is far more accurate than the BMI because it measures your fat to lean tissue ratio, which is an accurate measure of health. BMI is calculated with ONLY two numbers, your height and your weight, doing anything else is not BMI.

I've seen skinny people that the BMI says are morbidly Obese, It is based on your weight and your height, it is very VERY inaccurate and no self respecting doctor will use it unless they are forced to.

BMI was created by insurance companies who hired a man who knew nothing about the body, how it works it it takes your height and weight and calculates your health risk it is very VERY inaccurate as it does not differentiate between fat, muscle, and bone. There are better means to determine if you are overweight or if…

First of all I have experienced it, but as for sources

I've given it a chance, then chose Windows 7 on my current Laptop when I ordered it. The lack of a slow clunky interface that requires me to jump through a dozen hoops to do one simple change or that doesn't allow me to run more than one program at once was enough of a selling point to make up my mind. Only a Hipster…

Stable? Faster? Sorry but no, and being n IT and CS makes his opinion much more valuable than yours because he has experience navigating the menu's. The .8 seconds you gain in boot time(the ONLY place 8 is faster) is rapidly destroyed in the 20 minutes it takes for you to access even the most simple of option menu's…

Newer does not equal better, power users don't like 8 because the interface is slow and clunky and is more often than not in the way. Hipsters that only check facebook, chat on skype, listen to music, and watch you tube on the other hand will love it because you only do one of those at a time and it puts all of those…

Only if you use a computer to do a single thing at any given time and use only a handful of applications does the new start screen work for you. Individuals such as myself prefer to do far more than that and the interface sadly does not allow that without jumping through several hoops and jogging to places meanwhile…

And only half as much as my current laptop, but I didn't see a price point on the other keyboards or a price limit so I went ahead and added my two cents. Besides, if you had one of these you'd be in love with it. I personally don't and would rather the Tactus but since this is mechanical keyboards I'll go with the…

My vote is for the Optimus Maximus Keyboard, what is better than having OLED screens in each key that allows you to not only change what appears on the key but can even have videos playing for each and every individual key if need be?

Don't use either, have no plans to use either, social media is a life draining anti-productivity tool only good for two things, providing your personal thoughts ideas and opinions to be mined for data all under the guise of a popular fad, and spamming you with advertisements.
