I've tested many fonts for use in PuTTY while connected to linux boxes, and found these to be the best:

Most GPS have a setting that will select between "The car always faces UP, the map moves beneath me" and "UP is NORTH". Choose the "Up is North" setting. The car icon rotates to face the direction of travel, and the map always has the same orientation. Now the GPS behaves like a map (which you know how to read) and…

The weather in Morrowind is actually incredibly important to the backstory and as a visual indicator of accomplishment after beating the main quest. Blight storms emanating from Red Mountain have led to the quarantine of Vvardenfell to stop the spread of mutation. After killing Dagoth Ur you emerge from Red Mountain…

Love the use of Earthbound icons. How oddly fitting. :)

For those that will ask, the song is Alpha Beta Gaga, from the album "Talkie Walkie" by Air.

@djg1224: This made me cringe. The amount of time the water spends on the coffee is called "dwell time". Too long of a dwell time doesn't make stronger coffee, it just makes it more bitter.

This guy is crazy. You absolutely CANNOT make good coffee with an automatic drip coffee maker. He spends all that time buying water / setting it out to get it room temperature, and then he presumably uses the pre-packaged, ground nastiness? It's absolutely silly to spend all that effort on such a marginal increase in…

My mom made a few of these, but she used potpouri as the filler. Not very fragrant since you're sealing it up, but it's more attractive than wire alone, and might give some stability. Also consider: Glass beads.

You can read about it on the wiki, but basically it's just the day when all the avid amateur radio guys get out and try to make as many contacts as possible. The idea is that you get practice setting up your equipment in the field,…

Another vote for ultramon. Here at work, they've equipped us all with dual monitor setups (and windows xp). For me, the second taskbar and division of taskbar buttons is what makes the program.

@Wewtaco: You said it all - USPS tracking is absolutely worthless, and while the mobile app is a great idea, they need to fix the core functionality first before expanding. #mail

Home coffee roaster here. Just keep in mind that not all beans degass at the same rate. Some need more than others, and some need none at all.

lol @ "supposedly sacred marital cows" :D

@MSUHitman:

@king_e_dawg: I actually remember thinking "what an attention whore" right before they people behind me said something to that effect.

It was not worth driving from St. Louis. It was a neat idea, but they didn't pull it off. That media company, Breaking and Entering, was just awful. You people saying that it was fun must have been way back away from that guy spouting nonsense.
