Wow... someone who actually still owns, and uses, a Touchpad! Respect.

So let me get this straight: tools he can't live without include a web browser... but his best time-saving tricks include "No news. No web surfing." I wonder just what his browser gets used for, then!

I just wish the ATV 3 could be jailbroken. ATV 2 models are just too hard to come by nowadays without a 1.5x - 2x markup.

putting the "hacker" in "Lifehacker"... nice!

Good interview, Tessa. I liked this one; for some reason the subject (Kelly) seemed to come across as much more accessible than some of the others.

CoderSeven - does the RPi have the native ability play 1080p video in any format?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the RPi couldn't handle certain formats of HD video - only certain containers / formats worked, and that was only up to 720p or something like that. Has that changed?
