Yeah, see I was just trying to make it less about the stuff that was up there, and more about the fact that I have stuff to begin with. Sorry it wasn't overflowing with romance and mysticism. Please don't slip on the vomit beneath your feet.

So sorry- I should have clarified: "Girlfriend"

I have a picture of my female, my son, my dog, and a statuette of Odin from FF7. And those are there because I kept getting chided for not having anything up. And I'm an artist, so go chew on that for a while.

I would be perfectly happy with 75k$/year. Hell, I'd be happy with what I'm supposed to be making according to the regional and national mean, which is roughly 60k$. Anything is better than the almost 32k$ (after taxes) I'm currently getting. 75k$/year would pay off all my debt in less than 2 years including my house…

If by 'lunch' you mean to take a specific amount of time each day to consume some sort of sustenance for nutrition, then no; I can't afford it. If by 'lunch' you mean to take a specified amount of time each day to just do whatever, then yes, every damn day.

Cupholder

This is my everyday methodology. It especially comes in handy when hacking something; I always ask myself, "What is this object's purpose, and what is it doing?" More importantly, how is it doing it? Once you can understand how the different pieces are working together you can then truly own it and bend it to your…

I've cut cable, kept internet. Since I was pretty hard edged on not paying for 'free' upgrades and making it adamantly clear that I would cancel my service if the bill ever went up even by a dollar, they offered to give me my basic basic channels for free, after I had them give me in writing that my price would not…

Where: Rockford Area

I work almost 55 hours a week. It isn't because I like to, rather it is because I can't afford not to.

Remove DRM, but more importantly- adopt the 'pay what you want' model. It's been a proven success each time someone uses that method. Substance would then trump volume, I think, as a side effect.

90% or so of my typos are actually transpositions. Which is seriously frustrating because it feels like my fingers have dyslexia, lol.

Magnets? How do they work? Oh, already answered above. Good job.

The sound of the entrance door opening at approximately 7:40am... (chime) Boss is in, time to stop reading Lifehacker and get some actual design done. Of course then I get to the 2-3pm mark with nothing left to actually do, and start making up stuff to do to look busy...

You've -> You #corrections

And even if you are bad at it, I've found if I announce how bad the joke was I just tried- it's immediately forgiven. acknowledge your failure, and move on.

I use my hand to wrap cords around, and usually have a twist-tie/variant on hand to keep them in the loop tied close to the base of the adapter part. Really long cords like power extension cords or Ethernet cable lines, I use my hand and elbow, then wrap a bit around the middle to keep it together.

When All Hope is Lost. or when a major new version OS is out...

Let me just say this: 12 Cup system, it works. Also, I have a picc-line at home.

Personally I use RadarNOW for its speed to get the 'right now' map. Otherwise I use the app that Beautiful Widgets provides in its widget, it's fast, shows the forecast I want and generally stays out of my way until I need it. It may not be the über weather tool- but it does what I need it to.
