Well the Iranians claim it was on their eastern border, and the Americans claim it was in Western Afghanistan, so it was definitely on the edge at least, in the grey area where you can deny exactly whether or not we were in their airspace. It's not like it was right over Tehran, which would be more of an…

I feel like he meant that light meters don't work with this for whatever reason. In which case estimating it, especially if you're not used to how it exposes, would be pretty tricky...

Looking at that video, god you're right, the video camera gets trounced by the iphone, rezound, and sgsii...

This is pretty rubbish, unfortunately. I just tried it and essentially what it does is goes to your friend's profile, sees that they're a fan of nutella, and offers up a bunch of vaguely-nutella themed products from Etsy. A good idea, but a let-down in execution.

I think because "you look tired" is often a euphemism for "you look like hell", not that they actually look tired.

Thank you! I have two aunts who are the biggest mac fangirls I know, and it just bothers me. It's like, I prefer OSX too, but you don't even know what you're talking about!

That's what I was wondering. I feel like android's calendar is probably at least as good as the ios calendar at syncing with google, and this doesn't seem to promise anything beyond that...

Ah, I see. Chrome was good enough that it made me switch before ABP was available, and I got used to using the web without it again.

Except in this case, the cost is clearly subsidized by the ads. And it's not like Amazon is twisting your leg into buying the ad-supported one, you can be ad-free for only 30 bucks. I hate ads quite a lot, but I understand why this is wrong

I thought chrome had added ad block plus now?

I don't know, I've never seen problems pulling flash drives out, but when I did that with my ipod nano, even when it was done syncing, I very clearly saw problems and data loss (more freezing, lost songs) that disappeared when I started doing it properly

I feel like some samsung android phones are still not micro or mini USB. Maybe those ones are more than a couple years old? I just remember seeing a couple recently

I think it's because you're freeing up clock cycles in addition to freeing RAM. They've shown pretty conclusively that free ram doesn't equal a better user experience, but a freer CPU does

Well, it has a free and ad-supported mode, which a lot of services don't. I think that means a vastly larger audience gets and can give hype versus competitors that only offer the paid-version.

Chill, bro.

My high school still had those, but they were terrible. At one point they got screwed up so each classroom varied by five or ten minutes from each other, and it took a month or two before they were able to get them synchronized. Everyday we'd come in and the clock would show up at a different time, or just be…

I simply used Canon as an example because they're the only manufacturer whose catalog I'm extremely familiar with. A quick googling reveals that DXOMark, DPReview, CameraLabs, several lens rental catalogs and online stores, and a number of tech review sites all put it in the commonly-used semi-pro category; while…

Actually you're wrong, with all due respect. All of Sony's SLTs so far (unless I'm wrong, the top-level one is the a77 ?) are usually classified into the broad enthusiast/semi-pro range (everything from the canon t2i to the 7d are in this range). Obviously you can make issue with the definition of professional, or…

Yeah it really is... I remember reading the n9 review and thinking "if this hardware design isn't resurrected on a major OS at some point it would be a crime..."

True, removing the moto skin from my photon (basically the same as the atrix) and replacing it with launcherpro made a big difference. Plus it's more functional.
