@thinkthis: Oh, dear. Please don't promote the trolls, even if only to insult them.

@John: Okay, I'll be honest, that picture you embedded, I didn't see that.

Okay, let's be honest.

@Sir (Starman), Leader of the Pineapple Platoon (and I don't even like pineapples): Nah, there were some shenanigans in #whitenoise, a whole bunch of us were penalized.

This is why I have never played Farmville. I don't want to get addicted.

Oh, Rosa. Articles like these are what make me love Giz again.

Now tell me how to use the free internet from a nook or Kindle SIM card in my phone or iPad.

@dfp3050: I don't know, I'm wondering about that as well.

@Kyle Storm: Thanks, I didn't catch the "up to" part. Now it makes sense.

Looks like something fun to try after I get my new, better, computer. Bookmarked, thanks!

@JonThomasDesigns: That's the same monitor I have! (and the same internet service, less fortunately)

Next up: How to access [www.google.cn] outside of China.

@TheFu: Much appreciated, I'm reading them now, thanks!

@fredcadete: With all the "calling home" DRM, that's how it is with most games, unfortunately.

As I draw closer to buying my new (and first!) laptop, I find myself with many questions, some of which have already been answered.
