Make breakfast! Although honestly, I'm sure someone figured that out.

Rob's left some great comments on the Two Cents stuff! Interests noted. And, Rob, if you have more, specific topics you want to see covered there, shout!

Is there anything this thing can't do?

Amazon Prime may have raised it's subscription fee a bit, but it also continues to raise in value. It was originally a great value just for it's cheaper prices and free 2-day shipping (which sometimes is 1-day, depending on where you live!), but now includes video streaming, music streaming, and more. Oh, and yes,

GB3 will happen, dude. With Murray. Mark my words. And I agree, GB2 is totally underrated.

Thank you! I'll give it a try.

You'll make a lot of progress just by being super consistent with both your exercise and diet program in the next four months. As I'm sure you know, there aren't any secrets to weight loss except consistently eating healthy food in the right amounts. For exercise, I'd lift twice a week and run 2-4 days per week and

The XB1 Kinect gets a bad rap. It's actually really awesome tech and I'm glad I have it.

I've bought one 1 month ago and I'm so happy about it, not only for the price, but also for the experience.
The thing I do not agree with is that everyone keep on telling "it's easy, it's simple, you can set it up one in 10 minutes".... Well, actually it depends. It depends on what you're trying to do, its complexity

Oh! One more thing. Check Meetup.com to see if there are any Raspberry Jams being held in your area. Casual get togethers of Pi enthusiasts. I'm sure they'd be happy to help you get started.

SSH is a way to connect from your desktop (or tablet) to a server by command line. Think DOS in the old days.

Check out their website help section, it's full of easy to follow demos, documentation, instructions and if all else fails the forum community is amazingly helpful. http://www.raspberrypi.org/help/

I think it's recommendations, but I just unchecked news, recommendations and other just to make sure I covered them.

Yeah I hate that one too. The first few times I got it, it was always a celebrity and for a split second I'd be like omg they're following me?!

Well, shucks. Thanks, Rob. And if there's any money topic you'd like to see covered, feel free to shout.

No EarthBound = List invalid.

Sorry for the late reply, Rob. It seems like you've gotten some solid advice from the readers! Martha makes a great point, I think. I guess I'd just have to weigh the frustration vs the payoff. I've experienced this, too, and I know a lot of freelancers complain about it. I'm pretty patient, but maybe too patient.

Child of Light is pretty good! Looks gorgeous on Xbox One, too, that was actually the console I reviewed it on.

I'm a freelancer too and money is never going to be paid in the same consistent manner that your full-time gig pays. If he always pays you, then I'd stick with it. But if you're constantly asking where's my money? And wondering if you'll be paid again, maybe it's time to look for another part-time gig.

IMHO, it's a sellers market. The service you're providing to the web guy brings some value to him (money or otherwise). You say it brings in half of your full time post, it's obviously not highly paid. Chances are, you're being under rewarded and not treated fairly. You hold the cards. You've sent him a clear
