I can fit some stick-on plastichromed vent ports in there too.

This is a Magnum 0.000357. It'll blow a man's hair follicle clean off.

it'll double as a heavy pair of scissors that will cleanly amputate your fingertips or the fingertips of a toddler.

Does "electrolytes" just mean "NaCl"/table salt or are there some other salts/minerals that are rapidly lost during dehydration that one should consider taking in during rehydration?

I used to operate at a higher technology level than most other consumers when I was younger and single and spending a lot of discretionary income on the latest and fastest and best stuff - PCs, TVs, consoles, phones, etc... I'm at a point where I *could* continue to do that but it would be counter to my current goals…

I were to make an analogy - the Chromecast is a bit like a new game console whose hardware is fine and technically, it is a fine machine, but at the time of release to market, there were only a few games. This is actually how a lot of game consoles do release - with few games in the beginning and with more coming in…

it's a combination of lack of features/functionality, among which the absence of Amazon Video is an annoyance. Let's put it this way - even if Amazon Instant Video has an inferior selection, it's still a library worth browsing through - jumping from Netflix to HBO to Amazon. It is a minor inconvenience to browse…

I understand it's not a technical issue that can't be solved - it's a licensing or business deal that just hasn't happened. It doesn't matter that it's "Amazon's fault" - the simple fact is that Chromecast lacks that particular feature and it diminishes the Chromecast's utility and convenience compared to that cheap…

what I don't get is that for the price of a new CLAptrap, you could purchase a really well equipped used Mercedes in a much higher class range. You could pull up in a E or even a S class.

I think that the Chromecast's website follows very dangerously closely in the style of Apple's devices. The difference between Google's device and say Apple's iPod is that the Chromecast isn't an incredibly elegant and intuitive device. You need more explanation than this ethereal marketer-talk of "Be connected with…

Next month, next week, next year - clearly the issue is not a technical one. I think my criticism of the Chromecast isn't too much on the tech - except maybe the iOS compatibility one, but even then, I was willing to go full Google suite by purchasing a Google Nexus7 tablet to smooth things.

isn't there at least a workaround method where the app ensures connectivity every X seconds?

1. Before you get your neckbeard all ruffled up, let's look at Chromecast's claims on its minimalist website:

I tried casting from my laptop and it was very laggy and some of the content came in as black boxes. Videos didn't play. Cursor wasn't displayed. It wasn't quite what I pictured. I thought the Chromecast could have some business application such as wireless connectivity from a laptop to a HDTV to show a powerpoint…

there are also a few "bugs" that really bother me. I use an iOS iphone to control the Chromecast (my wife uses the Nexus7 tablet). When I switch app from Netflix to another app and then return to Netflix, my connectivity to Chromecast has been lost. The netflix movie is still playing but I can no longer pause it,…

You have to let go of SD. It's like me with my phone. I had a dumb phone that was small, compact, cheap, and reliable for many years. I liked it. I could call and text people with it. Then, smart phones came. I resisted it. Hung on to my old phone. Didn't want to shell out hundreds on a smart phone. As an…

Roku plays Amazon Instant Video.

this is the chief complaint I have. That and Amazon Instant Video isn't supported.

No.
