Someone needs to put together a list of undead tech companies that just need a stake put in them. I feel like AOL would top the list and Yahoo would be right toward the top as well.

I've got an old magnetic bowl made by Park Tools (custom bicycle tools) that is quite handy, so I can see this simple homemade version being useful. Although my new favorite organizer is a 20"x20" magnetic mat with the top of it like a white board. I can drop a handful of parts into the squares and even make a note…

The radiation of the wastelands is not helping this guys looks...

Brother!? Brother's Don't shake hands, brothers hug!

I worked on phone support for a while and more often than not I wished that Mr. Henry Killinger's magical mystery murder bag was a real thing... the slippers would have been nice too.

My thought was such thin solder would also mean you're continually clicking the pencil to get more. I guess it depends on if you're doing through hole or surface mount soldering. Still I've always just used something like the picture below, buy a large spool and just wind some around a pencil then slide the coil off…

Yeah, I remember playing the first couple Saints Row games the first one felt like a methadone drip to ween me off GTA. The second one started taking itself a bit less seriously and lucky for us the 3rd and 4th games they completely went off the rails and made it batshit insane, which is part of why I love the series…

Oh man, I'm having flashbacks. A friend had loaned this game to me in grade school and I proceeded to crack out on it for weeks. Sadly this game was a gateway drug to WINBACK, which had horrible shoulder button system, but once you got used to it the control you had was amazing.

Nintendo could have done an even bigger favor and just made the port a micro USB for charging if they don't want to include their own proprietary power adapter.

It also helps to use a website/plugin like camelizer to see price history for items at Amazon, I often see sales for stuff on Amazon from deal sites where they say $200 off normal price, when they actually mean $200 off of the manufacturers suggested retail price and is only $20 off the normal price amazon sells it at.

Or if you already have some awesome gloves you love that aren't touch enabled and you're still not ready to join the smartphone master race and just use your nose there's also conductive thread so you can make any gloves work if you're a little crafty...

Or maybe batting gloves for baseball, the cheapo ones are super, super thin leather so you have some tactile sense still. Otherwise I'd also lean toward leather driving gloves.

it crashes a little too often for me, but when it's working and you got 4-5 other people helping crew the ship it's stupid fun.

Hell yeah! Homeworld and YES.... I totally forgot about that gem.

Yes! I hadn't even though of Ronald Jenkees or Nujabes. Thanks!

Big fan of orchestral classical music while long hauling in space lots of good youtube playlists, even a couple specifically for Elite. Wish there was an easy way to flip the playlist to metal the second I get attacked by pirates though. I just feel like a sociopath killing space pirates to Bach.

Also been pulling…

A friend got me one of those a couple years ago, they work great for organizing all the screws and stuff on small electronics (white board markers also a bonus) when you're in the process of tearing something apart and would like to be able to put it back together again. I also do a lot of work on bicycles, so I've…

I worked for a now defunct beer distributor in Alaska and we would help clean the lines at some of the bars. It was beyond disgusting how far gone some bars would let their lines go to the point where you'd see beerstones in your beer when poured from the tap. It looked like someone had emptied an unlit cigarettes…

Nothing wrong with cheap when it's also elegant and dead simple solution. Now I gotta go check out Adafruit and see what they have for NFC stuff because you just gave me a bunch of ideas with that simple NFC hack.

Yeah I saw LEBDEV or whatever it was called, but that keyboard was also over $2000. A company came out with a keyboard for the Star Wars MMO that had a touchscreen that could work as macro keys in a game as well, but it was also very expensive and if I remember right really only worked for the game I don't believe…
