Second that. I believe OSX defaults to the same command-line shell (Bash) as Linux, so if you're an OSX command-line adept you're also one on Linux. And as such you've basically mastered the hardest element of using most Linux-based operating systems, so you can easily say that you "know how to use Linux".

A geek wouldn't give a shit how to jail break an iPhone. He/She would be far too busy playing around with the terminal emulator on his Android phone. Only Hipster wannabe geeks would actually buy an iPhone. The rest of us use real phones.

I declare this quiz bogus. I got a low score, and I and my kind invented geekdom in the '50s. Bogus. 66-Out.

That's a stupid list. I've never seen Neon Genessee Cream Ale or whatever the hell it is, because I'm old. But as a movie geek, there's almost nothing there. How many books are on that list? How many board games?

Not a big surprise since Jim Crane's nickname for this season was "Springtime with Hitler".

You buy a Toyota for quality, fit and finish, and durability. They are boring and a bit more expensive, but they are not trying to trick dumb Americans. They are trying to sell a bulletproof car that will last as long as you want to have it. They put thought into every piece, making sure it is well thought-out, and…

Instead of wasting a full, unused scented candle (and the resultant wax mess when it gets knocked over) I put my USED, too small to re-light candles. There's still a bit of wax & scent in there, but not enough to use for any other purpose. The smallest Yankee jars fit nicely in a cupholder.

isn't spying internationally what the NSA is supposed to do? I thought that all this hoopla was because the NSA was spying on US citizens. Why would this be a story?

Yes, you're right: the best way to make a margarita is to make some whole other drink. Shut up.

Lithium batteries? Clean, rust-free body for a CRX?
If those batteries are not on their last legs, it's worth at least $11,000 for the batteries. This would've been CP if lead acid batteries.

The only ones that burn oil are high miles. Mine had 180k when the transmission grenaded and didn't burn any oil.

Nothing about it was generic however. Second gen S-series were. But these were actually pretty revolutionary when they came out.

Also 30mpg out of a large-ish compact sedan that got to 60 in 8 seconds is…

"It doesn't help that the Pentagon axed the one honor created specifically for drone pilots just two months after introducing it."

I would love to know what percentage of the overall fleet of federally owned cars that makes up. I am guessing this is not that significant in the scheme of things. I imagine that any business that has a large enough fleet has a couple percent of it sitting idle at any given time.

That was the most pointless ending to a TV series ever.

Why yes, yes he does.

The 5 game suspension is just for missing A-Rod with the first pitch.

Behold! A slap on the wrist in all of its glory!

I think the biggest mistake people probably make when buying a home, is looking for a home at the top end of their mortgage prequalification range. If you buy a home at the upper range of your prequalified level, you won't have money to do anything with your new home, for several years. It also means that you'll…

Number 3 is SOOOO important. I can't tell you how many people I know that have these huge beautiful houses they dump money into every month to the point where they can't do anything else. They don't travel, they rarely go out with us on the weekends, etc. Meanwhile, I've got a mortgage that is cheaper than the…

Cats: Developing ways to thwart counterfieting attempts before we could even figure out how to try. Just one more bit of proof of their superiority to dogs.
