Technically, BEHIND your behind is your front...because it’s behind your behind…while your behind is behind your front...I think...

This is mostly due to the way UNIX in general handles files. For the most part, file extensions are meaningless to everything except the Desktop environment and GUI applications that allow you to open files through a built-in browser. Even then, they only show files with specific extensions but often allow you to show…

Smoking in a wooden building usually isn’t any more dangerous than it is in the average home. Assuming you don’t toss the cigarette around like you’re outdoors, it should be no problem. Then again, I personally advise against smoking near your computer work space anyway as you can potentially cause quicker build-up of…

Personally, the biggest problem I have with most GMO products is that many of them have been modified to grow as fast as possible. I’m a firm believer that anything WORTH anything takes time, including food. The motivation behind GMO may be great and I’m sure there are many GMO foods that pose no threat whatsoever.…

This is why I do things the easy way - I grow my own food in my own greenhouses with my own water and no added chemicals of any kind. If I get sick, it’s my own damn fault and I have no company, no farmer, no big business, no ONE to blame but me. Then again, I think there’s something to be said about getting sick by…

Just to supplement, as far as RADAR inaccuracies go, it depends on the situation. Many states require agencies to regularly calibrate their equipment to ensure accuracy. If the agency fails to meet their state’s requirements, that alone is enough to drop a ticket in some states. Others will require the agency to have…

They work great in my area. All the false alarms are created from X band frequencies while the local agency radars operate on K/Ka. I leave mine on the most sensitive highway setting and forget about it. I know where the noisy spots are and I know exactly how much it cries in those areas. If the signal is any louder…

In my neck of the woods, no agency has the funds for LIDAR yet, so they stick with RADAR. Even THP in my area is still using RADAR. None of the patrol vehicles are fitted with “instant on” equipment either, so detectors are quite efficient and effective around here. For that matter, even in my travels throughout the…

That’s one of the best ways to find a pure connection with someone. If you can be a total doofus in front of them and they still find interest in you...you’re “life”ing right. Personally, I’ve actually tried to do something stupid on many of my first dates. If the girl just looks at me with a weird look, I can tell…

Yup. I’m talking to a girl right now. We’ve discussed that already. We’re great friends and she knows I’m into her. She shows interest in me but she’s not ready for a relationship. To be honest, I could handle one, but it’d be quite stressful, so I think it’s for the best that we’re sticking to being close friends for…

From the time I first started sleeping in my own room, I’ve needed light and sound. At one point, my TV was on nearly 24/7, especially in the summer. Then I started sleeping with a dim lamp in the room instead. Now? I’ve actually reached the point (likely from my years living in a college dorm) that I can’t sleep with…

Granted, in defense of technology, it can only provide a solution with itself. You can’t ask technology to dismiss itself simply to provide the solution. Much like science can only use the scientific method to prove something. It still can’t prove a ton of things about the human experience, because it is limited to…

On the bright side, you were real. You were you. You were comfortable and open just as you would be around your typical friend. I’m sure it didn’t help your cause, but if she was gonna be turned off by you acting that way, it would’ve happened sooner or later anyway. In a way, you may have dodged the crazy bullet.

Unless it’s a comedy. I think comedies could be the exception, especially if you’re smart and go to an early showing with fewer people. Then you can laugh and chat a bit. A good laugh tends to break the ice with everyone across the spectrum.

I could beat that with a story of my friend. He’s recently divorced (his wife left him for another chick) and had another girl over at his house. His ex’s girl dumped her so she came crawling over to his house, hoping to get him to take her back. She shows up and sees his date...

and NOT the good kind of drunk where you’re having a great time and you’re the life of the party…more like that deplorable kind of drunk where you THINK you’re having fun, drinking the world’s largest margarita, only to wake up and find salt on the toilet lid a la Larry the Cable Guy.

The only thing I can really think to say is if you trust Nintendo products as the source of your income...you deserve to get screwed over when they do something stupid like this. I gave up on Nintendo years ago.

That’s the one sad thing to being a beta tester - by the time Apple starts announcing all the awesome new features, I’ve been using them for six months. It’s nice to get access to them early but it kinda sucks not getting to partake in the “celebration” and such when they go stable.

What in the hell are you doing to your phone that causes you to get such poor battery? I go every single day on a single charge with virtually no problem whatsoever. Albeit, I do have to give it a boost if I spend the day using WiFi Hotspot.

I would venture to say the MacBook lineup may get a refresh this fall, around the time the new OS X and iOS make their debuts. Then again, I’m just guessing so don’t hire a hitman on me if I’m wrong. :p
