Although that's kind of a stupid critic from the barrista... After all, it has the same amount of coffee, it just has less un-frothed milk and water. Hardly a disappointment.

It's worth nothing that aluminium is a terrific heat conductor and that aluminium can dipped into near 100°C water will become unpalpably hot very quickly. It'll work, but keep that in mind.

If you're being served a localised version of google (google.fr, etc.) your search setting will also be localised and may not have that option yet.

I can't believe there are so many established apps that do this... I'd googled before and all the big movie cataloging apps don't seem to support automatic online scraping for info so I coded my own in PHP. Oh well, on the upside I learnt how to work with XML and DOM :P

Surely it would make more sense to simply take the photo at the full resolution and crop it down to the desired size and composition on your computer as you're going to be sitting at your desk to upload it anyway?

I'm a big fan of drinksecrets.com, especially the mybar feature which let's you plug in a list of ingredients you own and offers some suggestions of drinks you can mix and also some drinks for which you're just missing an ingredient. Many sites offer a similar feature but I found this one in particular to work well :) …

My natural sleeping pattern is 8 hours of sleep followed by 18-20 hours awake, the only issue is those don't add up to 24h, and the closest realistic compromise is 7h/day.

YES! I was going to post this solution I see I'm not alone :D

Veeeery interesting considering I have a dead 2TB on my hands ^^

If you want to take it on as a carry on it will either have to fit the required size specifications (probably not going to happen) or you can try and call the airline and explain the situation to see if you can possible get it on the plane by booking a second seat and having it as a special item (Cello's travel this…

Might as well add that security staff told us (as staff we go through these gates tens of times a day [and have to put up with the quota pat-downs too]) that not touching the sides and going through faster helps avoid false-positives.

Try asking in a more appropriate thread? Hell, you could even check out [jezebel.com] which is more geared towards fashion. Either way, Ask and Answer quesitons about flying is quite far on the list.

How big a bag? If you only need to check in it because of liquids but not because of size you could try opting for a wheelchair. A big european airlines I've worked for allows wheelchair passengers to check-in their hand-luggage free of charge.

There is a quota of false-positives for which the security staff are obliged to pat you down so as to ensure they are remaining attentive.

Temp'd 4 summers now as a check-in/boarding agent at a big airport for a major airline in Europe. Happy to answer any questions.

I think people are missing the point of the worldwide 3G access... The worldwide bit! It's not being able to browse the internet on your Kindle which was awesome, it's the fact you can be anywhere in the world and not incure roaming charges!

I don't understand why anyone would purchase a non-3G Kindle. Sure it's cheaper, but free WORLDWIDE 3G internet access? Sure it's not a fully-fledged browser, but it's a lifeline if you EVER travel!

Cables: KEEP (power cables in one shoe box, interface cables in another)

Enjoy the 2 months use you get out of your earphones before the cable inevitably breaks from such wrapping methods...
