Morrissey's Mozburger is all I can think of after reading this

most people use a handful of apps, and for fast access, there have been desktop shortcuts since before windows 95. The metro interface is wholly unnecessary and not intuitive to use at all.

It's a welcome move, which along with the return of the "Start" button sees the operating system return to the kind of experience desktop users should have had by default in the first place. And while we could be congratulating Microsoft on paying closer attention to the people actually using its products, The Verge…

The Metro's tile interface is pretty neat for tablets and touchscreens, but for regular desktop PCs it's a nightmare. The backtrack is a result of Microsoft's "telemetry" revealing that the biggest percentage of Windows 8's users are old-fashioned desktop + mouse types who use old-fashioned programs, not these…

all hats are hideous in my opinion. Only good for functional uses e.g. hardhats or snowcaps.

I think I might plant milkweed in a place in my yard tucked away where people won't see or disturb it, but butterflies will flock to. Is there any way to get seeds?? I love butterflies and attempt to plant as many native species in my yard as I can.

why? They're fragile, slow, stinger-free vegetarians

all the "fedoras" I know use the persona as shallow respect to trick women (usually unsuccessfully) into dating/sleeping with them.

ugh I just can't get into the mindset of the religious. Deny yourself happiness and pleasure because it curries favor with your deity? how absurd!

I think this extension is pulling one over on its users. See my other comment in this thread

I really don't think it is. At the very least it does not work. Right after I installed it, I started getting random redirects to payload.gosidekick.net, but it didn't see any problems, then those redirects stopped right after I removed it.

those extensions on the list sound like garbage. I use a ton of extensions, but I haven't heard of any of these

why has no one put together a linux distro like a "Torbuntu" that comes preconfigured to have full disk encryption and use ONLY tor to connect to the internet?

omg that sorta happened to me too! He kept asking me about heroin. I kept explaining I was going to visit my grandmother for her birthday.

oh man! if I cop ever did that to me, i'd thinking "dumbass!" as I undeleted the file with freely available file un-deleters

I hear that! I got stopped for not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign because I had out of state plates while driving in Maryland. While I was, in fact, stopped at the stop sign, I witnessed the cop who stopped me doing a 3 point turn in the road in the direction I was heading about 100 ft from the stop sign. …
