@acidrain69: I have an ever-changing schedule (I work from home), so I've found that if I go to sleep knowing that I have a responsibility to be somewhere at a certain time, a simple alarm is sufficient to wake me up to the point where I remember why I set that alarm, and that feeling of responsibility is what pushes…

@Randont: Looks like it only works with emails that still exist in your account (i.e. not deleted emails). Last year I got a barrage of "Happy Birthday" wall post notifications from Facebook around the time of my birthday, all of which I apparently archived instead of deleted.

A problem with the embedded version of Google Maps is that the map data is not necessarily the same as the full version.

I'd always wondered about this. For argument's sake, let's say I have a nice random 12-character password, and that dictionary attacks are irrelevant. Now, there's no way for the hacker to know if those 12 characters include numbers, symbols, and mixed-case letters, right? So, what does a hacker do? Do they run their…

@Elderbear: Indeed, I have my CC number memorized as well, without having tried intentionally... and in 2 languages, to boot! ;)

Looks like Save Google Wave has been LifeHacker'd.

Dear moderator(s),

@eirrikr: I should have known. :p Although I'm a bit disappointed that you can't give it a city as a target timezone.

I only wish it did actual time-zone calculations, such as "9am PDT in GMT +2".

@banda: Isn't it known as the Sidewalk Shuffle? Or was that something I came up with?
