The Mobile, Alabama MSA has about 400,000 people, anout 0.12% of the US population. There are about 230,000 licensed taxi and limousine drivers in the US. Assuming that those drivers are evenly distributed throughout the population — which they are almost certainly not — there are about 290 drivers in the area. You…

How's that workin' for ya? Now we have all of the states neglected in an election year except a half-dozen "battleground" states.

Have you ever tried to hire 3,000 limos in Mobile?

Warming ourselves by the flames of the Cuyahoga?

Prodigy, Compuserve and AOL ads weren't "on the Internet."

Problem is, the US version won't run on 220-volt current and all the controls are on the wrong side.

Apparently, no one told them that even a C-list celebrity lawsut gets more publicity than the most popular WebOS app. Hell, yard sales in my neighborhood get more publicity than the post popular WebOS app.

Yes, and this is all brand new. Before modern drones, the police didn't have aircraft and there wasn't a means of killing people from the air.

The perfect gift, especially for VD, is one that couldn't have some from anyone else and couldn't have been for anyone else. Load that Kindle Fire with a playlist of songs that mean something to the two of you, or the movie you saw on your first date, or wedding photos ... that's the difference between a nice gift,…

It's inevitable, just like when they started using helicopters to spot criminals from the air the inevitable next step was sending Apaches to blow them up. You can't drive through LA without seeing a smoking crater where a car chase ended.

Their tech is standardized, and your old iPad might not be supported. But it can be raffled off or presented to the teacher of the month, or the student with the most improved GPA, or what have you. You'd have to work pretty hard to find a first-gen iPad for much under $200, so clearly there are more than niche uses…

You keep that filth off a family Web site, mister.

No. You need to wear an ankle monitor so you can be someplace other than jail after getting into a fight at a bar.

Google: Proudly proving Rule 34 correct since 1998.

2012 was a GoPro commercial? I suppose that Hobbit trailers and Gangnam Style might have been buried in there somewhere, but I could only watch so many bicycle backflips before giving it a tl;dw.

Correction: the app is AirServer.

SBSettings used to be a major reason to jailbreak; the main reason for me now is all the widgets you can add to the Notification Center (including NCCettings). In terms of apps, WiFiFoFum and VLC (both of which used to be in the App Store) are the main ones. There is a much stronger case for jailbreaking older devices…

It's a tablet and a laptop, for the price of, well, a tablet and a laptop.

The one thing that kept me from diging into MiniDisc back int eh day: Sony. More specifically, proprietary everything and zero Mac support (which are pretty much synonymous with Sony).

They're popular in the sense that Beta SP tapes are popular — in the process of being phased out, but there's a lot of archival material on it, and it'll fade out of smaller-market stations with smaller budgets last.
