$10,000? I mean, it's no million pounds in a furnace...

Steve Jobs: Not spinning.

Sitting here typing this message, I'm actually finding that I only *ever* use my right thumb to hit space. Interesting... Still, it seems like it would be ridiculously simple to accidentally hit the backspace which would annoy the ever living fuck out of me.

Any decent doctor shouldn't mind terribly writing you off-script for just falling asleep during meetings or whatnot, but it's technically meant for clinical narcolepsy. They've been pushing "excessive daytime sleepiness" as another indication as well. It's expensive, but your GP shouldn't give you much trouble for a…

Just chiming in to say that jcarmstrong is more like jwrongstrong. Amirite?

If you haven't heard of or tried Provigil (generic: Modafinil), you really should. It's a bit expensive (around $1/pill), but it's absolutely amazing. You don't feel high. You don't feel a buzz. There's no jitter. There's no pace-quickening intensity. Instead, you're just awake, fully, and alert, fully.

Exactly. It's startling as shit to have something get pulled from atop your head.

Time to learn how to say "I don't speak English" in French, I reckon. Quois? Just keep repeating that over and over. They'll get the point without being insulted.

He doesn't "bump into him", his hand catches the headphone cable and yanks it, which, if you've ever had that happen to you, you realize is quite a jolting thing. It's not even an over-the-top reaction as much as an "oh shit, what was that? oh, okay" reaction, which is completely expected.

Indeed, but when we're pushing it on to the grill, I swear to you that chicken is still insanely juicy. Doesn't dry it out as much as the linked article implies.

Oh god, this article makes me feel dirty. For one, I use a gas grill. It's what's there. For another, we break basically the core tenets of "barbeque" or even "grilling" by parboiling chicken for 30 minutes first. I swear to god, we boil the fucking chicken. And then you know what we do? We throw it on the fucking gas…

You definitely want Airfoil, as many others have stated. It costs just a bit, but in exchange, you get the ability to do EXACTLY THIS in PERFECT sync! It's pretty sweet. (Basically, it buffers a second or two on your local machine of sound before broadcasting it out on a synced network stream that everyone plays back.…

Fun fact: if you (gently) grab a dog's snout as he starts shaking, it arrests it entirely: he has to start shaking from the snout down. Saved me many a wet-dog-splash.

Haha, that's only at home. At work, I have a dedicated #bearcam monitor.

I've had this problem with some of the swimming events, but the 100m streamed right through without any buffering. I tend to keep things down at 480p though, because for most things, that's serviceable, and because 1080p tends to buffer itself to death even during low demand times.

They did this in Barcelona:

Screens have been rectangular since the beginning of time. Where do you expect them to innovate towards? Ovoid screens? Triangles? The reason these devices are all similar is because there's not much else in the way of form-factors that make sense. Even the old HP swivel-screen tablets were rectangular screens with…

I was able to make an emergency 911 call a week ago on Jelly Bean 4.1 on my VZW GN, no problem. It entered this strange "call-back mode" for five minutes, perhaps something that allows any subsequent calls to be taken over by 911? It was in the notification area and no other information was available.

Also, you refer to it as a phone at one point. And you can tell Google Now to never show you the bus again, what are you, a prole, as-if. But still show subway. (It's under the transit card options, which is pretty sweet.)

A+ trolling, good job, would read again.
