I wish this were so simple for replacing my hard drive. I cloned the old drive to the new one and restored a system image of the old drive to the new one, and now my PC grinds to a halt a minute or two after booting up, and won’t let me do a “refresh” of Windows.

I can think of literally no other industry in which “having a monopoly” over a product that you manufacture is a problem. Are you saying that no individual or company which makes a product should be allowed to sell directly to consumers?

Hi there! I see you’ve replied to a comment of mine from 2011. While the comment’s form may have bordered on “asshole” territory (for which I have no defense), I still think it a bit odd that someone reading lifehacker might not know how to send a text message.

I guess Wave sort of lives on in Google Docs, but it just isn’t the same.

I actually liked Wave. Too bad no one else did :(

Never having to type in a password isn’t “useless” in my book, but I’ve never had a phone with a fingerprint scanner, so I don’t know how practical that is in reality.

Apparently, Blizzard has said that the ranks given out after the placement matches was “conservative”. Playing and winning more should get you rising up back to your proper rank pretty quickly. I hadn’t played hero league before the reset, but since my placement matches I’ve gone from (If I recall correctly) Rank 48…

I usually pat meat and chicken dry with a paper towel before seasoning liberally with salt and pepper, maybe that’s it?

Sorry, my question was directed at Harmon20, but your response to him actually made me realize that the reason I never have trouble with meat sticking to the pan might be because I always pat it dry before seasoning liberally.

That is really weird. I haven’t had trouble with sticking in years. I don’t cook fish though, so who knows.

Do you oil the pan before you put in the meat?

We should call windows “privacy holes” to make them scarier for people who thought they were just a nice way to let light into their homes.

It can take a few minutes for the beta access to process in the Play Store. Or something.

Not compatible with the 2014 Moto X. Darn.

Klingon Academy actually did a really good job as well. I never even finished that game and I still have fond memories of it.

Reminds me of a match I played the other day on Cursed Hollow. We lost almost every single tribute, but managed to take a couple of bosses that, combined with our awesome Gazlowe, won us the match just as they took the last tribute that would’ve spelled our doom.

I am generally ok with the fluid nature of language, but that is a perversion of the English language and I refuse to acknowledge that change.

Working is easier when you’re young. I know I don’t want to have to slog through a workday when I’m 60, let alone when I’m 70 or older. I try to maintain a balance between saving/investing and spending, but I also try to remember how easy it is to fall into the trap of thinking that everything I find easy now will be…

It is strange and hilarious how much this happens.

During Zeratul free week I got a lot of negative comments about my play in Quick Match. Nothing defuses the situation better than asking for tips and feedback from the person bashing you.
