@quickf3d: You do notice you're describing something very similar to a '70s dumb terminal connected to a mainframe, only wireless and in high resolution, right? Even virtualization also comes from that time period.

@NathaniaEquidistance: Furthermore, even if you have Helvetica installed on Windows, its rendering on screen just sucks...

Okay, enough is enough! Lifehacker urgently needs an "US-only" tag so that non-Americans can filter out articles about US-only websites!

This might be a good way for you to see what's new when you search your own name. Just go deleting from the results what you've already seen. Subsequent searches will show only what changed since last time.

@Jared Goralnick: Ah, I understand the problem now. Thank you for the explanation.

Wrong: ... to monitor how they're computer's running ...

Seems like an useful service. But why is most of the world locked in the paid version? As none of the Brazilian cell carriers is supported in the free one, and I'm not that important of a person to be in the receiving end of urgent calls with any significant frequency, I guess this is going to be a new addition to my

Geez, not only have I to mind-filter out annoying mentions to the unwatchable from outside USA video-disservice Hulu, but now its irritating black screen is starting to appear embedded in news feeds? Sigh.

@SlimDan22: Most of the time it isn't that it's hard, but that it's VERY expensive. Offer and demand: if only 10 people in the world want or need something, you can bet it'll cost a lot to make it, no matter whether it's a technology that was more popular than water 40 years ago.

@JuniorAndTorrie: Anybody know if there is a difference in HDD or RAM consumption compared to Vista?

@zikman: We need a name for these not quite-digital neither quite-analog tricks. Anatal? Digilog? VAH (Virtual analog hole)? Digital hole?

Since you're talking about RTM, let me ask a question: I use and love RTM, but for some tasks I'd also love to have a more multi-list rather than todo-centric web app. Would someone know of a good one allowing entire lists to be defined, with entries manually organizable within then, and with the lists themselves

@Mysterius: I guess the problem is in the meanings we attribute to the words we use. For me, "backups" are protected copies that, barring some extreme form of disaster, "stays there" until I need them. For instance, now and then I need a very old file stored away in some almost forgotten media. I place the disk in the

What a marvelous Steampunk desktop! Coupled with a wooden desktop tower and other tricks one would feel like he's inside a retro anime. Well done!

@OthelloMokap: True. Not to mention Amazon won't delete your uploaded files just because they don't happen to exist in your HDD anymore, as Mozy does.

@AsWater: Brazilian tap water is extremely clean. It's one of the (few) things our government can be proud off.

@mysterious1der: I think it's ugly. What's that bloat? An opened skull with a twisted open-mouth screaming face? Or something?
