Waits politely while they enter their PIN number, of course.

Can anyone give me a quick rundown of the advantage of this over the default Notes app that runs on my iPhone and Mac?

The common mistake you make in both money and love: not having any.

Does anyone else have the opposite problem? I remember /all sorts/ of information - usually useless bits of trivia (biscuit comes from the Latin for twice cooked), but often just things people say about themselves that kind of slip out. Then I have to pretend not to remember that small fact you mentioned two years ago…

When reading reviews on the internet, my rule is to always read a couple of the worst reviews possible. If they complain about things that aren't specifically the product's fault (the box came a little dinged up, was delivered late) or that don't matter to you (this edition doesn't have the 1979 Laserdisc commentary…

I don't think he's right.

My major concern is the fact that this becomes renting Adobe software, rather than buying it. I'm locked into their programs by virtue of them being industry standard, as is basically everyone in the graphic design industry. Adobe have our balls in a vice, and if/when decide to up their price (it's 50 bucks a month…

So, I live outside America, in Australia. We have a sales tax, the GST, which is more or less just 10% on everything. Will Amazon have to charge me that tax if I purchase something?

Because they keep having unprotected intercourse. Next question.

I think I'm about to.

Can anyone explain to me why I'd use Alfred over the default Spotlight? Command+Space Bar opens it up straight away, a couple of letters gets me straight into all of my most-used programs. I'm sure there must be a reason, because so many people love it so much; I just don't see what it can offer me.

If you're preparing a speech, write down exactly what you're going to say, practice it, and then do the actual speech with just abridged notes. You'll know your stuff, because you've practiced it, but you won't just be reading it off a sheet, so you've got a little bit of room to adjust based on the tone of the room.

My favourite Goofy Movie myth is that there was a cut of the movie with Donald Duck in it, but he was edited out after censorship worries because of the no pants thing.

If this were real, there would literally never be a successful undercover cop operation (or coperation). What sort of gang wouldn't start every single dealing with a new person with "are you a cop"?

For what it's worth, this is the work of a guy who goes by a couple of names online, but his blog is at http://fanartexhibit.wordpress.com/; he's done a Thor (http://fanartexhibit.wordpress.com/2012/12/28/if-women-ruled-the-earth-2-thora/) and an Iron Man…

I give it less than a decade until we hit the 90's revival. (Furbys are back this year, so we must be close.) I'm personally holding out for a Captain Planet movie, but I would not say no to MMPR on the big screen.

The problem with comparing it to the first iPad is that we're 4 iPads in now - of course it should be better than a 3-year-old piece of hardware. That's not to say the Surface is bad - I haven't had an opportunity to play around with one - but you can't compare it to anything except the current competition.

This is... this is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. A third of them are un-funny jokes ("there's no lap dance in this scene"), a third of them are things that are explained in the movie ("Nick Fury shoots a missile at a guy to stop him shooting a missile at a guy"... because the other guy is going to /nuke New…
