Nope. That is not true in any browser. Local edits do not persist for multiple sessions, ever. It's much more likely that the site only shows the lighbox on your first visit there than for your browser to have persisted those edits.

The 10 minute limit has to do with the GIS calculations required to do this. There is a fair bit of routing analysis being done. I also assume it has something to do with API rate limits of Nokia maps (all only mapping APIs have limits). If you are in a more complex city (like London), you will see a 10 minute…

I like the Windows logo was removed from the keyboard in the picture, but then added to the photo of the hard drive.

I like this post: "I like the Windows 8 looking part of the start menu, but not the part that actually looks like the old start menu."

Here are my entirely-unscientific thoughts on this:

That's my question too. It sounds like a great way to get some sketchy stuff delivered.

I think for posts like this, where the subject is so niche, we have to ignore the obvious answer. Yes, most of us would go with DIY, because we already likely have a desk, and standing desks tend to be expensive. And last week, with the mobile hotspot post, most of us do not have a need for one, so of course we would…

Umm... I don't have a computer with a disk drive.

Whitson, I am very super confused by your comments here. Windows remote desktop does not rely on the physical monitors on the host machine at all, the same way that VNC solutions work. In fact, the host computer's account is logged out while you are connected to it. It will rely on the hardware (monitors) connected to…

No problem. Yeah, it's been around in one form or another for a while now, but they did recently clean it up a lot. I actually like this version a bit more than Word. It always bothered me that all revisions are displayed inline, and you can't read the entire paper very well. As far as I know, the only way to see the…

Hmm... I've only used Word briefly for this, but here goes for Google Docs options: Go to File > See revision history. This seems to be a pretty similar view. It will color additions, color and cross out removed content, and tell you what users edited what. It also lets you restore the document to a previous state.…

What is it that you are referring to when you say revision marking? I don't think I see any revision features as missing in Google Docs.

I was going to reference this exact article. At that price, with the reviews it is getting, there is absolutely no reason to get any of the monitors on this list. Of course, the Seiki will require that you have a graphics card prepared to deal with that resolution.

I just got one of these too. It gets some strange looks, but it works.

Yes, you can. Both I and deV14nt explain it in the comments on this thread. Here's the link on Google that explains it: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/…

In Chrome, you absolutely can. You can open multiple profiles at the same time. In my case, I have all 3 open at the same time. For example, my girlfriend uses Google Play All Access from my profile in one window, and then browses the web in her profile from a different window. It's a really solid implementation. As…

I am not sure, as frankly, I didn't know printers still existed. However, installing drivers on a chroot on a Chromebook would be exactly the same as installing that driver on a regular version of Ubuntu. You can go to HP's site and see if they have Linux drivers or Google how to install the printer in Ubuntu and…

I'd like to point out that Chrome supports multiple profiles on one instance of Chrome, so most of the uses of other browsers are invalid. I have 3 profiles in my Chrome — one is my personal profile, which gets the most use; the second is the dev profile with has a ton of tools I need when coding; the third is my…

I can vouch for this keyboard. My office is very very dim, but the battery always reports being between 80 and 90 percent, and it is also very comfortable to type on.

The #DVD*5*2 comes from this: a DVD is 4.7GB, and most DVDs now are dual-layer. So to have all the rips on your computer, it would be 4.7GB * 2 (for dual layer) per DVD. However, you are right that they should just compress and save the movie alone. If you do need to keep the DVD in its original form, then yes, that…
