I updated my Apple TV 3 (2012) to 7.0.2. My PlexConnect setup remained and it feels speedy. Still crossing my fingers on Apple allowing the older ATV3 to have peer to peer airplay.

seems like tablets are on the way of becoming little project hardware like a glorified raspberry pi. i gave my ipad 3 to my mom after using it for one year. i haven't fixed her pc since.

I just want the damn icon to be flat on ios!!

I've been shopping for a new car and one of the features I really want is the use of my smartphone apps like Waze through the car dashboard. I know setups like Carplay are not quite baked yet so I started researching for alternatives like rear end A/V in adapters and would love some feedback. I'm torn between the…

The Fridge. Checking what's inside so to know what to buy at the store, smart temperature regulation based on contents and allocation, and ice making triggered by SMS.

Proof of purchase could be shown from the credit card statement no? I also keep the receipts because a friend was once accused of a fill-and-run while on a road trip and it ended up being a mistake by the clerk.

I also want my next mustang to be a significant upgrade so I'm on a wait and see for an up tuned V6 with the premium package. I'm sure the EB will do wonders for sales in Europe and it's understandable that Ford had to pour all their tuning efforts to balance the V8 for the first year of sales, but I can't imagine…

I shop thinking about the entire lifespan of the gadgets before purchase. For instance I recently was out searching for an AC router but opted for the N because it fits my current needs and in the very near future I'll have to upgrade my parent's router (still happy on G but becoming less and less reliable). By the…

Great topic but I can't think of many things to add other than you're on the mark!

I want to look at this in a positive way. This was essentially a Turing test but instead of using a keyboard now you're using your voice (making it a true AI test). And the fact that this isn't just available to machines like Watson or behind some military laboratory but open to all makes this that much more…

Wow, so eloquently put. I find that the level of motivation is relative to what he/she considers to be of value. I tried this on my wife (getting a gym membership) and didn't stick very well. Oddly enough she was okay with me sticking to it and wouldn't let me cancel mine haha.

Mint.com. I use it to plug in all my credit cards (and my wife's), banks and I keep a close eye on all our spending not to mention (loosely) maintain a budget. I'm not so sure how safe others may find such a tool but the benefits of seeing all my spending in one screen watching the transactions often in real time…

I would love to hear about the start-stop system from a newborn parent using the car to put their kid to sleep. I have friends that time their gas stops based on their nap cycle and i'm curious how sensitive this start-stop could be on the more sensible riders.

I don't want this to be a debate but I must ask: Are there any perks to starting development with Android first over iOS?

I think Reminders is a perfect example for Siri. I tell it to "remind me to so-and-so when I get home" and it's a LOT faster than doing it through the gui. Also because I adhere to the Zero-Inbox philosophy I ask Siri to read my emails digesting them as To-Do lists of their own.

ha! I'm right there with you on the mouse!!! Over the years I developed wrist pains which forced me to buy one of those ergonomic mouses. Even thought it's like $30 on Amazon I just own one and leave it at work though. I just find it too nerdy to carry a mouse with me and I've been trying to force myself to reduce…

Multitaskers would not only want to but need to. I'm a contractor constantly working inside a secure environment to me that translates to no personal electronics in my workspace having to leave everything inside a locker box. A portable battery charger has been crucial for me since my phone doesn't last the day even…

Apple Store

ditto. i can't really think of a time i missed something while without my bag. also i find my scrounging abilities to up a couple of levels every time i try to jerryrig a solution.
