So weird, I was just thinking you should write articles just for me. Your skills of reading my mind are improving.

Whitson, how you do always read my mind, but about three days too late? I just made the switch to an SSD this Saturday and this would have come very handy.

Ah I see what you mean. They do something similar already for packaging, but you also meant including stamped mail. While I think that would more accurately reflect the price of a letter, I think that the easy-to-use nature of the post office (stamp it and forget it) is one of its strengths. Plus, can you imagine with…

There will always be a need for a physical method of delivering pieces of information that is protected and regulated by our government. That's why the USPS being able to get rid of almost 1/4 of their workforce without a large amount of hell being raised.

I LOVE the automated kiosks as an ebay seller. They don't work for everyone, but for those who are a little more savvy about computers and post office options, it really is the best way to ship stuff. I also used them for graduate school applications (10 applications times 1-2 Priority Mail envelopes each = a pain if…

They already do. A single stamp is good only for up to ~4 pages of regular weight paper. Any more than than and you have to base postage on weight.

Manure is one of the most natural ways to fertilize crops, although you are right that it as been commercialized. However, commercialized manure fertilizers are regulated by federal law while some of the more organic farmers (especially local low-yield farmers) tend to use more natural methods of recycling animal…

Another less permanent solution is grit tape you can pick up at almost any hardware store. This will allow you to get the traction you need without having to paint anything. Plus it's removable if you are renting.

I bought a stainless steel BBQ utensil set last week and it had a large 8 inch knife mounted on a 2.5 foot handle. The kid me in immediately thought about using it as a sword.

I'm bristling with excitement over this product.

I'd hate to be the guy that has to replace all those fluorescent tubes.

Is that Pedro from Napoleon Dynamite?

If I can suggest it, also try out AutomateIt Pro (they also have a free version). It is like Tasker, but for the less technically inclined, as Tasker has a VERY steep learning curve to do anything meaningful. AutomateIt Pro is menu-based and very simple. Try it out.

He's making crap up, I'd just as soon not reply to him anymore and bury his comment.

deLos, you may not care about protecting your rights as a citizen, and allow someone with authority to push you around simply because they have that authority, but others don't. The problem is that unless you can account for every time anyone has been in your car, the previous owners, and even those that manufactured…

They touched on this, but to be more specific: Your tasks need to be behavior-oriented action tasks. It needs to be an actual, executable behavior, and it will be more "do-able" than vague notions of actions that need to be taken.

Actually, I just found a nice deal for the day. I ended up purchasing one myself.

What I do is open up all the pages I want opened when I start FF, then I go to Tools (may have to show the menu by pressing F10) > Options > then under the "General" tab press "Use current pages" and it will remember to open those tabs next time. I did this and have gmail, facebook, gizmodo, and lifehacker all open…

It's very easy to do cropping, rotating, flipping, etc. The most basic of stuff.

Agreed. Never had a problem with Office 2010.
