Great article, I really wished I had seen this when I built my first PC this past summer. I really need to re-train my brain to always check lifehacker first! :D
@ADLopez: Whenever I have a conundrum about something like this, I tend to search lifehacker first :)
@BxgrlJeri: Despite trying desperately not to?
@curtis07: I own all three seasons of Arrested Development, and I watched Better Off Ted religiously. I'd add Pushing Daisies and Dead Like Me, Eli Stone, (and obviously Firefly) etc.but the point is, I agree, I don't regret watching those shows at all. I just wish... well, really, I wish people in general were…
I used to have Comcast with DVR, now I have AT&T U-Verse, and even though U-Verse doesn't seem to have auto-correct, it's still so much better. This is a clumsy workaround for something that's a problem with Comcast, not our hand-eye coordination: Comcast's boxes are ridiculously slow. Take a page from AT&T's book and…
@dapper_otter: Where in MI do you live, because Detroit has always has a huge Mexican population (in the southwestern quarter of the city), and definitely the delicious food that comes with it.
Just a few weeks ago I realized that thing about Chrome's tabs staying the same size as long as your mouse hangs out at the top of the window, and I was stunned. It seems like such a small thing, but it's things like that, little things, that make us love anything, I think, from a browser to a car, to the little…
@Terry: Okay, but what Platypus Man and I were referring to was that in technical context, it means that a set of values are close to each other. Please use the whole definition next time, not just the small part you agree with, and i still object to you somehow accusing me of "slapping scientifically on a word to…
@Terry: Whoa, I wasn't trying to start an argument, and I certainly wasn't trying to use any kind of rhetoric, okay? I said that because those are terms used in scientific measurement. I was just pointing out that what you were saying was different than what Platypus Man said. I didn't "slap" anything onto anything…
@Terry: No, Terry, Platypus Man is correct: scientifically, precise means that a set of results, or values, or... anything, etc. are very close to *each other* while accurate means they are close to *correct.* Most people assume they mean the same thing, but you're falling victim to a slightly less common…
@dB Photography: With all the horrifying news today, there are few things I read that give me hope for the future. This is one of them.
Google had to do something to put Bing back behind them where it belongs.
@curtis07: yes, we really really do. :D
@raincoaster: It seems really easy to me, too: they all have links to suspicious ultra-shortened urls posted in the last few days about all their pics on another site.
@thor79: interkin3tic is right, as I see it. Everything we buy, with the exception of something temporary, like a vacation, etc., gives us satisfaction both through an experience and through the simple fact that we own it, and the point is that we do own it. To differentiate between a car and a game because they age…
@TendoMentis: I completely understand. I work at a restaurant (that's right, a real, full-service restaurant) where people think they can do this all day. It's bizarre, and I don't know where all the Starbucks these people should be at went... the other day I served a guy who stayed for six hours after paying and even…
@TehBeardMan: I agree, this is pretty much a no-brainer. I too enjoy real tea only.
@Firesphere: I've always thought this kind of stuff was really interesting. A few years ago, I read a British study that claimed it had proven that when men drive, we drive using a natural sense of direction, but women use landmarks. This implies not that men are better drivers, but simply that men are able to…
