Netbooks were stupid, but incredibly prolific, considering...

Never heard of it before.

This guy is just the worst kind of micro-manager.

Who needs water-boarding?

When you can run xcode on iOS.

Complete outsider here (software developer), but it seems like the US' persecution of whitehat hackers has scared some people off of wanting to learn this stuff. It seems like there should be more of a push to train people to combat this constant threat.

Oh. It requires BT 4.0. Well nevermind then. I wonder if it can work with a dongle..? EDIT: Nope.

Ahh. Yeah. I remember that one now.

Just recently bought a 2011 model spec'd about the same for $400. Stuck in 8 gigs, an ssd and a 500 gb HD. USB3 would be nice, but not that nice.

Recent episode?

Just don't carry large amounts of cash or the police will confiscate it.

It works great for me. I have to enter a pass phrase to unlock my phone (because of corporate email) and the convenience of using the touch id is priceless.

ha. I plan to have this one 2 years, but yeah the 5s would be ideal if it didn't lack the latest technology (which doesn't actually do anything yet).

Man, I miss my Bridgeport.

What is going on in the photo with the cops?

I have a problem if they hurt others. I ride and I know there's a risk. I do the best I can to mitigate that risk. But if someone wants to take their test on a can-am then buy a supersport and ride it without gear, it's their funeral.

I'm ok with that. Cars are one thing, but if you fudge a motorcycle test, you definitely have a death-wish.
