Well if anyone is in the Austin area, my WRX hatch will be going back to Subaru since I'm planning on trading it in for a 2015. Speaking of which I'll soon have a Stage 2 kit for sale.

I wonder if Microsoft will go after them, they've had Blink for a while. http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmo…

Windows Phones get updates as well, with a major one on the way too.

This is a terrible idea. I'm serious when I say think of the children. If a speeder passes you by won't the sound waves carry through your car as well and what if you have your baby or child with you, their hearing could be damaged.

You answered your own question, the point of the start screen is for touch devices. A touch device could be a tablet, touch screen laptop or desktop. Non-touch devices will boot to desktop by default. Either way users will still have to option to set Windows to boot to desktop or start menu. Sounds like they've…

If you have a non-touch desktop/laptop it will boot to desktop. It will still boot to the start screen for tablets and I believe hybrid devices (desktops/laptops with touch) will boot to the start screen as well.

I have a Dell Latitude 10, Venue 11 Pro and Surface 2, for testing purposes at work. I will say the Surface is better in terms of build quality. But for the price the Venue 11 Pro is great if you want a tablet that can do pretty much everything your desktop can. I say pretty much because if you need run multiple…

It makes perfect sense in that Cortana was pretty much a digital assistant for the Master Chief from Halo, Microsoft's best gaming franchise. How is it worse than Siri? Would you rather Microsoft Bob? Clippy? Does it really matter what name they picked? Someone somewhere wouldn't agree with it.

Bypass the Start Screen and use Classic Shell: We teased this above, but apps like Classic Shell in Windows 8 will give you the Windows experience you're used to—that is, no scary Start Screen, and when you boot up, you go right to your desktop, with your familiar icons and everything. If Classic Shell doesn't meet…

Doesn't look like it. http://roboticstomorrow.com/news/2014/03/3…

powercfg /a will report available sleep states and list any drivers that could be preventing your system from being able to sleep.

I do believe oil is still needed, but only the best will do.

I'm late to this, but I took this with my Lumia 920

I wasn't implying you should force yourself to like it. Just offering up the information that it comes in many different flavors. Coffee isn't bad for the environment, irresponsible farming is bad for the environment.

Nokia Lumia has a call+SMS filter. You can block up to 1000 numbers, pin a live tile and even have it notify you that a call has been blocked.

Has anyone tried the AmazonBasics version of the Mohu Leaf?

If coffee is bitter, you best find a better roast to suit your taste buds and make sure it's fresh as it can go bad.

I'm in both camps. They are both unique and offer different positives and negatives. The cats are nice in that we can go on vacation and they are ok so long as food/water/litter is provided. Our dog has to stay with my parents since we can't and wouldn't leave her alone at home and we can't take her to a Hilton with…

You mean dogs that were specially selected and trained to do those duties, sure. But there are plenty of dogs out there that would be perfectly content if they never had to rescue or assist someone. Don't get me wrong dogs rock in that they can do that, but they aren't all like that nor are they all willing to do that.
