I'm a producer for several live streaming podcasts. For me, the most important but "little thing" is that the on-board sound card support a stereo mixer so that I can combine several sound sources and stream them out to the audience.

I've built my own computers for years, although only two completely from scratch. Ever since I installed my own ISA 1400 baud modem in an old 286 clone, I've preferred to be as much "hands on" as possible. I don't have any cool pics to share, though, because I've never built one for looks, just to service my needs. My…

Here in Lexington, KY Trader Joes is priced around the same as Whole Foods. Neither is cheaper than Kroger or Food Lion, which typically isn't cheaper than Walmart, Aldi or Save-A-Lot. Needless to say, I wasn't too impressed with Trader Joe's after they finally opened here, and I find the quality of food at Whole…

I doubt Apple is going to sue you for using your software in a way they don't approve. More than likely, though, they'll just not provide you with any technical support or guarantee that the OS install or any programs will operate as you expect them to.

This works well in Denmark because citizens don't have to worry about paying out-of-pocket for health care and education. In the United States, I have to foot the bill for both on top of paying rent, utilities and buying food for a wife and three children. When we were younger and the kids were babies, my wife worked…

Mr. Tomsky is simply roughing out the edges of what will eventually be a very fine Bastard Clerk From Hell. I'm sure he gives excellent customer service, and much like myself in my hotel days, carries a lot of fantastic, deep, sadistic thoughts.

This is NOT TSA-friendly, I've had mine confiscated before. To be honest they work in a pinch, but they're not the best tool. Biggest flaw IMO is that none of the blades are very sharp. You'll need to sharpen them yourself to make them effective cutting tools. Because of the overall size of the tool, using the…

Wow, what a horrible idea! Not only is this likely to make a mess, but it will give a false sense of security as well. You want better traction in winter? Invest in a good set of snow tires.

My friend always says, "Why does everybody plan a French Toast party in the middle of a snowstorm?"

This will be the last post that I ever read here. Seriously? You guys have NOTHING better to write about than somebody's tips on pulling up your pants? Not worth my time any more.

Strange, April 27 3:10 AM ET, logged into Hotmail and found my son's school account logged in. Upgraded to 25GB, no problem. Logged into my Hotmail account (had since 1997) and no upgrade available for me.

What's wrong with the photo?

Vote: Better Facebook. I've used it since the first day it was released and constantly advocate it to my friends and family. If you do use it, please donate to the project. Matt Kruse spends and incredible amount of effort developing it in his spare time.

Lots of Plex love here, hooked up through my Roku.

If you're an MLB.TV Premiere customer, any blacked out games are available 90 minutes after they finish. Very much worth the price IMO.

You can also download GnuWin32, native Windows ports of popular GNU tools for Linux. [gnuwin32.sourceforge.net]

What has and has not worked for me:

Agreed, I don't see how this would work. Doesn't the pad on the USB cooler need to be in contact with the container?

I'm assuming the author meant liquid cooling for his computer equipment.
