For my Frosted Flakes. Obviously.

All of this streaming stuff is great if you happen to live in a major metropolitan area where you’ve got not just high bandwidth but a high-enough data cap that it doesn’t matter.
Sadly, for those of us who happen to enjoy living where there is room enough to swing a mountain lion, we’re still being milked hard for…

I just bought an inexpensive ($60) PCB heater and it’s worth every penny particularly when trying to deal with boards that have copper-pour ground planes.

I’ve been tormented by the Ghost of Christmas Past for many weeks now. It’s a whole Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind thing.

So, supposedly, if you want to get busy with a girl it helps to wear the same cologne her father uses. If this is true, is also true that you shouldn’t wear any if her father didn’t either?

Or fiance’ or husband for that matter. She’s using the orbiter as an escape hatch, safety net, Plan B. Someone she knows is crazy about her who she can go to when things in her primary relationship aren’t going well. It means that she’s not 100% commited to the primary guy. She’ll never figure out that it’s not…

RE: the driver’s license thing. Understandable IF you grew up and live in a major metropolitan area with great mass transit. Here’s the reality: most of the world isn’t like that and newsflash: doesn’t want to be.
But as to being a “real man” that’s a question I have and my guess is that it depends on who is judging.…

These are good for paninis but they’re terrible for pancakes.

Speaking from personal experience, these often act as a flying gas station for Blackhawk helicopters. We were fortunate to have a search & rescue assist from two Blackhawks and a C-130 a few years back.

Ack. Chewey bacon is wrong. Bacon should be what a lot of people would consider burned.

Can we go back to the days before there were dozens of drug ads on TV? Seriously, how many people have non-24 to the point of justifying the expense of a TV ad? Or how many people have pseudo-bulbar affect to the point of not only justifying the TV ad but justifying the residual payments to Danny Glover?

I really don’t understand why nobody seems to be seeing the downside to this. Everybody knows that fake reviews are everywhere. This now gives weasel competitors legal cover to screw with you.

While I’m going to be soul-crushingly single this holiday season, the silver-lining is the fact that I finally got the courage to call her on her bullsh*t. That, of course, was met with stubborn dismissiveness which I’ve come to learn is usually what happens when someone’s bluff is called. But once I did so, I…

Here’s the #19 actual live-saving charity:
Yavapai County Search & Rescue Team

When my father was in the Navy in WWII and riding on the train from San Diego to Boston, the train stopped in a small town in update New York at about 1am. The only people there to meet the train was the Salvation Army with free coffee and donuts.
They are there when other groups like the Red Cross aren’t.

Perhaps there is something other than nothing in a vacuum and that’s what it’s pushing against.
But why screw around here? A SpaceX launch isn’t that expensive. Why not build a test vehicle and launch it? I’m sure a Kickstarter campaign would take care of the finances in a hurry.

True but I expect an employer to be honest and forthright about this. That said, it’s not like the workers were asking for training on things they didn’t use every single day. It would be like saying, “We’re not going to teach you how to use an air-powered impact wrench because you might leave Sears and go work for…

The question should be whether or not your company invests in training that you can actually use anywhere. Many years ago, I worked in a graphic design division of a large company. The workers were begging for training in Photoshop, Illustrator, etc. But all they ever got was “team” “training.” Basically, stuff that…

What if I see dead people?

Actually, no. The whole purpose was and still is to prevent high population density urban areas from dominating the process. What should concern people is winner-take-all states regularly flipping the choice of some districts. Take a look at north eastern California, for example. They’ve had their vote flipped for a…
