I'm a freelancer who's about to finish a graduate degree - and end my student insurance. Like you mentioned, I'm pretty intimidated by the idea of finding my own health insurance. How do I start shopping for the right plan, and what if I choose the wrong one? (Mostly I don't want to choose the wrong plan and get…

Gotta admit: it feels weird hearing this guy refer to McDonald's as a restaurant. But fun video though.

Not quite. The baptism for the dead gives someone the option of accepting Mormonism/Christianity after they're dead if they didn't have this opportunity in this life. The belief is that even if someone is dead, they have to repent of their sins. Since Hitler can't really repent of his earthly sins in an earthly way…

Hi. I'm a freelancer by choice, but I also have some gigs that require me to collaborate with other people in either an office setting or view Google Hangouts. I'm a distracted extrovert when I have coworkers, so my productivity crashes. I don't want the quality of my work to suffer, and I don't want to feel like I'm…

One from 2008. I took this as a bit inspirational. You don't need to have the newest tech to be awesome; this guy's whole message is about how hard work and passion are what really matters. I choose to live in an apartment because I don't need or want a huge house. It's always a good idea to figure out why he might do…

I do the same thing. I've been pulled over more than 20 times, and I got my first ticket just a few months ago because I was weaving through traffic. My own fault, but these tips have really worked. It's all about psychology and letting them know they're in control.

Ah, you know how your mail carrier has two piles of mail? One is real mail, and the other is junk mail. If a letter is being delivered to every home, it's junk mail. It's not hard to tell between the two.

I'm flying to DC tomorrow morning (hopefully!) but on the way back to Salt Lake, I have a layover in Long Beach. My parents live there, so I called JetBlue (over an hour hold time, but thankfully I had nothing to do) and asked for them to change the connecting flight from Long Beach to Salt Lake to the next day. The…

Is anyone else having trouble installing it on an Evo? I'm getting an error saying that I need to get a new version in the OTA update. Has anyone found a way around this? I've been eager to try Swype for a while. "You've raised my hopes and dashed them quite expertly, sir!"

I've been using the power control app since I installed LauncherPro, but there isn't a 4G switch on the power control widget. I live in Salt Lake (a 4G/WiMax market) and wanted a switch that looked like my other switches. This fit perfectly. Worth the $2 I would have spent on fries the next time I ate fast food.

So what is being done to Adrian Chen? He made the Gawker network a target by constant mocking 4chan. It's like he's that member of the computer club who always makes fun of the goths. Then the goths beat him and his friends up, and he complains about it. A stupid example, I know, but Chen annoyingly provoked other…

I really, really like the idea of a cloud-based OS where my files and apps are accessible across multiple mobile devices. Something that would automagically sync a tablet with a netbook would make choosing the right device for the right circumstance more of an option.

@Mapex: Except that LCD screens use the same amount of power for blacks as for other colors. It makes a difference on CRT displays, but not on LCDs.
