I agree with this. So many of the kids that are forced to read the English Lit class books and nothing else, they wind up hating reading and think that it is always about over-analyzing everything. Give them something that they enjoy to get them sucked in, then perhaps they will find that it is an activity that they…

I have tried doing the pilot hole and slowly incrementing up to the larger one, that took quite a while though. I guess if you have a good sharp bit and go slow, going straight for the big bit should work ok.

Man, where was this video a year ago when my family was building a deer stand on a trailer. We smoked and ruined several drill bits trying to drill through 1/4" steel plate. We did just about everything wrong according to the video...

The account may have a lot of points, but generally when redeeming points at the pump you have to scan your card. I think I have tried to enter my phone number and it didn't take it, maybe the Kroger pumps are not set to take numbers.

That is pretty much the only legit use I could see for this site. I have done stuff like that before and it does get difficult to explain "move this section a little, fix spelling here, change this color to X" etc. In my opinion, any pages "edited" in this site should come with a giant watermark or disclaimer at the…

I can see this being used to generate fake pages for phishing or to spread fake news stories... Aside from basic correction suggestions to a webpage, is there a legitimate use for this?

Totally different programming language with the same name... Man, Apple needs to pay more attention to stuff like that. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=783518… - describes differences.

I'm sure the book is legit, it's just odd that they already have a few reviews up that look like the artificial reviews from Amazon...

Not sure about the reviews that are posted, one of them says that he has lots of experience with Swift and that this is the best book out there. Isn't this the only book? And the language has been in development since 2010, but was only just announced so how could he have a lot of experience with it?

Depending on the store, I would skip using Jenny's number. For example, Kroger customers accumulate points to save no gas if you use your card. If you just use Jenny's number, you will never be able to use the fuel points that you have accumulated. Just a thought, I have saved 40 cents/gallon from Kroger before so I…

Sold. I'll take one of each, favorites are Jace and Garruk, Nissa and Liliana just look a little off to me but I need the set...

Kind of sad, with over 100 EWW movies, this is the first one I have seen get taken down.

This would not bother me so much except that I am constantly having to change from their "Top Stories" back to the Most Recent. If it would just save my change and not revert back every #($% time I open the app, I wouldn't get so irritated.

This movie just rapes everything about the comics and canon, but not too bad for a time killer. I still watch it from time to time. Would really want to see the Deadpool movie that is supposedly still in the works with Ryan Reynolds.

I was thinking the same thing. Might put it on my phone just for that :)

I recently installed a PCI wireless card and ran into a pretty significant issue with it. My laptop sitting on the same desk that the PC was under had full signal (5 bars) while the PC would only show a spotty 2 bars at best. I elevated my wireless router and made sure there was a minimum of anything between the 2,…

I always play it with no sound for this reason.

So they are playing off the TV/Movie/Book/Comic/Game/Everything trope where every bad guy feels the need to spout the entire plan to the "helpless" hero because they are sure of their victory... Sounds about right to me?

You do look a little funny doing it, but I'll be darned if it didn't work a little. Not perfect, but better than nothing.

I loved playing D2 but I was strictly a solo player, I never even logged into Bnet to sell/trade items. I did however play WoW for a while (about 8 years ago) and the AH there was almost as broken as in D3. I guess I'm just not much of a team player, which is why I would kill for an offline mode. Would be great to…
