Look at collectorz comic app saucemaster. It is for PC and also has a app for your phone which you can sync with your PC so you can see your want list and full collection on your phone if you want. I have about 9k comics and I have used that for 2 years and it works great.

Also, as far as i know, if you plan on using WOL with your laptop, it needs to be hard wired into your network / router. And if you plan on using task scheduler to wake up your laptop, you need to go to your advanced power settings and make sure "allow wake timers" is set to "enable". (along w/ appropriate bios…

For waking at a certain time, create a task in Task Scheduler and set it to "wake this computer to run this task." It can be something simple - like running an empty batch file. There are utilities to set RTC wake, but this is by far the easiest. You may have to enable RTC Wake / ACPI Wake Up in the BIOS/EFI…

This topic is brought up on black gay twitter at least once a month. The fact of the matter is nobody knows the answer.

Gay guy. Purely from my experiences it's situational but always seems to be clear at the moment. In general if one person asks the other to dinner, especially to a restaurant of the asker's choice, it's polite for that person to pay. If you both decide to get food, both have potential input on the place, it's common…

You're not taking into account how the woman feels in that scenario. Just so your male ego doesn't get bruised you insist on paying. At some point in our relationship I would start to decline dates with you for fear of feeling to myself that I was taking advantage of you. Don't forget a lot of men expect something in…

The initiator of the date pays.

I have to say, same here. :) Researching the nominees for this Hive exposed me to a lot of notebooks I hadn't been familiar with, and now suddenly need to own!

I'm still using Moleskine, but since many folks mentioned other products, I think I'll give them a try next time. Thanks for the recommendations, guys!

Here's an image of the vegetarian version, since it took me forever to find it on their site and I thought I'd save others the trouble. Unfortunately it doesn't look like you can download that version for free (the image isn't as big, and has the big "copyright" on it).

If its the NSA youre concerned about its important to understand what they're doing and how. One of the main things they're doing is looking to record meta-data, rather than data per se. Meta-data is far more useful. For example they can see who you are emailing and where your email comes from. You cant encrypt this…

"use of things like Tor or encryption services" the law was written to allow the NSA to store encrypted communications indefinitely. The 'spirit' of this was that if they were tapping a suspected terrorist's email account and it was encrypted, they should be given time to break even really tough encryption.

Oh god, can we just not? Please? Because this only ever ends one way. The people with kids will turn into instant sanctimommies, all like "If you aren't a parent you will never understannnnddddddd!!!!!" and the people without kids will be all like "Why can't I apply for maternity leave when I get a new kitten, cats…

That's ridiculous. We talk about SugarSync ALL THE TIME. Just last week I wrote about them: http://lifehacker.com/five-best-clou…

Alan,

The idea of buying more products, testing, then returning is good, sadly most of us don't have the money to buy so many things at once. Most of the high-end headphones are on display unpacked in Germany anyway so what I did is I used my smartphone and pluged them in and compared. Interesting fact, I bought a pair of…

disappointed with Lifehacker allowing this article to be posted. I don't respect anyone who intentionally returns something just to try it out. Make your best guess on the research and only return it if your not pleased. Heck I am the king of returning things but I draw the line at whimsical testing of products.…
