@Ron-Mexic0: YES. Embrace the concept of different family members using the devices! My wife has totally ruined my netflix queue by watching her chick flicks while at home with a recent illness. Now Netflix is suggesting the most ridiculous movies for me. :/

@FerminaDaza: I've seen pigeons get on BART trains. Here's where it gets amusing - West Oakland is above ground. Embarcadero (the next stop) is a below ground station. I can imagine that would be one confused pigeon when he got off at Embarcadero. Not only is he across SF Bay, he's 2 stories underground.

Conficker? I STILL run across machines that have somehow ended up with Nimda or Bugbear. I just want to ask the user how the hell they managed to get infected with stuff like that but know i'll just get a blank stare back. :/

@3Djesus- Esq. provocateur: What worried me about that one was how easily it was spreading through Facebook, and how little they have been doing to stop the spread of shitware. The Sophos guys have been calling them out on it, but the threat remains. Facebook is a HUGE target now.

@ps61318: That's part of what worries me too.. people would show up but not do anything because hey, they're getting some sweet video they can sell to a news station or just share on youtube later.

@Kaostick: My dog would be the one killing me. Every time I open the door, the dog darts out from behind me, practically knocking me over.

@Jonathan West: No, but you're the hipster that just HAS to point out that you don't find it funny.

There must not have been a Farmer's Market to plow through.

Am I the only one that gets annoyed when the most common fix is "you need to root your phone and install $SOME_THIRD_PARTY_MOD?"

They're MUNI stops. I think it'll be about a month before vandals have smashed all of them beyond repair. :/

@prolikewhoa: ..and experts-exchange, ehow, answers.com, fixya, associated content.... unfortunately, the list goes on. :/

@dangerp: error codes, product model numbers, etc. It's gotten really bad. i was looking for a particular part number yesterday and was flooded with useless results from sites like ehow and fixya, none of which had actual information - they were mostly asking questions. ehow is the worst.

@InfoMofo: Yeah, it's still a very rough product, to say the least, but I think it has huge potential. Boxee is great at indexing, and I'm still looking for the Iomega one. :D

I was thinking about getting a Boxee Box, but then I got an Apple TV and found AirFlick.

@fugeesnfunions: For some reason, I can imagine something huge being held up by music studios demanding something ridiculous. Licensing is what has been holding up certain TV show DVD releases, Spotify in the US, Pandora OUT of the US, etc...

Fortunately, it does say it's an outdoor fireplace. It would look nifty way out on the patio.

They practically nuked it from orbit, just to be sure.
