I hate the icon "grid." So I find pattern wallpapers that I can use. I then overlay ZooperWidget elements such as Time, Battery, Wifi/Cel signal and the central circle above to create my own homescreens.

Seconded. #COTD

Yeah, the reason I mentioned my age is because I read once (possibly on Lifehacker) that email was increasingly irrelevant for younger people, and that they did almost all of their communicating via Faceboock, Twitter, etc. Email was an anachronistic cassette tape to them. I don't know if that has been validated,…

I'm somewhat invested in the Google universe, so while at work I always have a Chrome tab open to Gmail and another to Google Calendar. Incoming emails popup on my browser and they chime on my phone too. I never actually check for new emails because I've set it up so that my email always notifies me when there is…

I tried one of these a couple weeks ago. Over the 5 days that I used it — in an office building in Arlington, VA. — I had very poor signal. Connection speeds were just horrible.

I like how the female announcer calls these burnouts "pirouettes".

I assumed they were there to offer a little wheel protection when he started slamming those red balls.

How does Divvy compare to your previous (and free) recommendation, WindowPad? Are they similar tools?

25 years later and this guy still gives me the creeps.

I applaud this, I do. However, where I live in Argentina there are hundreds of street dogs with injuries like this walking around. It's actually kind of inspiring that not only do they adjust but that they continue to hop through their daily lives with purpose. And they didn't get no stinkin' fund.

It's kinda weird that this nice young couple, with money to spend on a decent car and the latest smart phones, would end up staying the night in such a skank hotel.

I was 7. One day all of my close friends stayed home sick from school. I ate lunch alone and didn't have anyone to play with afterwards. Bored, I got the idea to fill my plastic sandwich bag with water, like a water balloon. I walked over to the sandbox and came up behind some kid happily playing Hotwheels with his…

No, I have a better understanding of what competitive drifting is now. It was explained to me by more helpful respondents to my post. Take a look at the entire thread and you'll see.

Miami International. Probably THE primary hub between north and south america. The theiving employees know that you're just passing through their airport and that you won't discover your luggage has been ransacked until you're thousands of miles and many hours away. Every year or so the Miami newspapers report about…

Then it's exactly like it appears: a competition and not necessarily a race in the classic sense. Much clearer, thanks!

I can understand drifting around the parking lot or on back roads. It's a thrill to sling your back end out sideways and it takes a lot of skill to do it. But that's basically all — it's a fun time.

To illustrate......

It actually bugs me that people in the States say "I'm sorry" for every damned thing. We use it more often than we say "please" and we say I'm sorry in situations where it doesn't even make sense. Similarly, we say "thanks" inappropriately; like when concluding a simple conversation as a way to say "I agree and…

The cars are nice 'n all, but I felt this video could have used more Heather Miracle, Cinematographer.

I will have good dreams tonight. Thank you.
