God, I love this show. My favourite comedy series hands down. It's both absurd and *smart*. Man, is it smart. So many jokes, so many memorable lines and scenes in every episode, so many blink-and-you'll-miss-it jabs at all sorts of mindsets from both ends of the spectrum. A real triumph, a perfect storm. I could go on

Oh man, I came here to say this! I love Dotcom.

Abhorsen books are awesome. For another Australian fantasy author with excellent worldcrafting and well characterized female leads, check out Trudi Canavan.

Well, I'm sold. I got a new laptop at work recently, and the IT dept installed Windows 8 on it. I was dubious but I got used to the differences within like half an hour. I barely ever use the Start screen or Metro apps, just like I barely ever use the start menu in win7. And as for the desktop, it is improved in many

Yes. I bought my upgrade a couple days ago, and it gave me a licence key (serial number) and let me download the entire Windows 8 installation to an ISO.

Not how I pictured him, but not a big deal. If the actor can carry it I'm happy.

gPad Pro. There's a free version called gPad as well, but Pro is worth it.

I don't know about you, but it seems many are confusing between jailbreaking and unlocking. The only reason to unlock would be to go to another carrier. Jailbreaking is for rooting and tinkering and whatnot.

Funny you should mention this, I just today installed Windows 8 on my work computer and so far, it's very satisfactory.

Done!

None, blank page.

Ben Affleck is a pretty good director, though not suited for something like Star Wars.

Actual Vine videos don't look like this.

What does Twitter do that blogs don't?

Ugh, enough with the GIFs. They look like shit. If APNG was more supported, that would be something. I mean are you seeing the dithered, washed out mess at the top of this post?
