Unpopular opinion: I tend to prefer dubbed anime, even if the dub is strictly worse than the original voice acting (which it isn’t always), because they’re so much more compatible with multitasking and don’t require as full attention.

Refrigerate within two hours of removing from heat? Isn’t that generally good advice for most foods anyway? I mean, yeah, this may be a bit narrower window than some foods, but this is standard enough I’m not sure why this is noteworthy.

I don’t need help clearing eggs out of my fridge. That’s the ingredient I’m most likely to use up before it expires anyway. Now give me a way to use up romaine lettuce and we’re in business. Those three packs are always more than I need.

I just ordered a Nexus 6p over the weekend. If a red option had been available, I would’ve gotten that in a heartbeat. Yeah, yeah, I know it’s about the charity, but I just think red phones are beautiful. I’m glad Apple fans have that color as an option now.

Can this be mass produced? Can Taco Bell possibly do this? Do they know about it?

I’ve never felt these “by state” charts were terribly useful. They rely far too heavily on the assumption that a given market is relatively stable across a state, when that absolutely isn’t always the case. In WA, for example, the population majority is west of the mountains, but the geographic majority is east of the…

One of the chief beauties of the English language is its ability to evolve. I happen to think that “journaling” both sounds nice, and is more efficient in both character count and syllable count than any of its alternatives. It effectively communicates its meaning in a reasonable concise manner. As far as I’m…

You never know when you’re going to want to write something. If your laptop isn’t already out and at the ready, then the time cost of unzipping your bag, pulling it out, finding an acceptable surface to place it on, and starting your favorite writing software can often be unacceptably high.

Aww, no NewsBlur love? In Google Reader’s aftermath, it was the one that I felt came the closest to what I loved about Google Reader. Even though it’s exclusively a paid service, it’s totally worth it.

Don’t give me bagels as a party favor. I’ll just eat it right away. I cannot be trusted around bagels.

I simply don’t get the appeal of desktop RSS apps. Webapps seem much more intuitive for things like being able to read your feeds from any device, or opening full stories in a new tab instead of a separate app.

Okay, legit question: Why is the country of origin important? I’d think the quality of the oil itself (and actually being extra virgin if it claims it is) is what really matters.

A real shame for we the readers, but I’m sure for the best for you. You will be missed immensely.

Most importantly, they fixed the theme browser.

Don’t: Use online dating.

One review after another in the Play Store saying the paid version reverts back to free. I’ve been wanting a good Android alternative to Sleep Cycle, but it looks like this won’t be it.

I’ve used the mobile versions of these apps, and they’re okay, but no alternative to Photoshop proper. If you already have a Chromebook, this is absolutely worth your time. If you don’t have one yet and you want to do photo editing... well, maybe get a traditional laptop instead.

Do you know how you get malware? You go to sites you shouldn’t go to and click on links you shouldn’t click on and download apps you shouldn’t download. Sometimes you hit an OK button you have no business clicking.

I’m still waiting for arbitrary custom wake-up words to be ubiquitous. The only one that supports it, that I’m aware of, is Cortana, and even that is only with third-party software to change it. This is not good enough, especially in a world where several people together having multiple iPhones or Macs or Android…
