I'm watching NFL network and I really need to have something cleared up for me: what the fuck is that woman doing with the head of Ellen Degeneris on a stick?

Congrats to all the New England fans!

I vote Slingbox as well, but $30 for the iPad and iPhone app, EACH. Thats a bit excessive. That said, yes, I did drop the money for both. Also I prefer to use the Slingplayer application which they seem to have stopped supporting in favor of the web based player, which I find disappointing.

I carry:

I went as The Dude last year. Same principle but replace tea with white russians.

I work for a VOIP service, and for people that have issues with sound quality on calls: firewalls and latency are the two biggest causes. Disabling SPI and SIP ALGs, setting up port forwarding, and checking for issues with your internet connection (extended ping tests with realistic packet sizes to check for packet…

Decrypting 21gb of game is making my poor AMD wince in pain. I'm at 29% and started at 12:03..

If I had to go with a windows laptop that UX31 Asus is sexy. I picked up an 11 inch Air yesterday and I'm floored with the performance and the fit/finish of it.

Little disappointed that AirDrop will not play friendly with either of my Macs. My iMac just barely meets the requirements for Lion itself (I will be adding RAM today just never got around to installing it) and my Macbook doesnt have a multitouch trackpad. Its like Apple is trying to tell me it time to upgrade...

I have a CR48, and two other atom based computers. One is an Atom/Ion htpc that can play 1080p mkv files without issue. All of the devices fail to play standard def web video smoothly on hulu or youtube. With less powerful device like the Droid or iPhone, they worked well because the experience using apps or…

You buy it once and it works on your iPad, iPhone and/or iPod touch. What expensive OS update are you referring to? And how dare they charge for commercial software??

Bluetooth keyboard? The Apple one is fairly cheap by Apple standards, easy to type on and small enough to carry with you if you are carrying a briefcase or man purse and don't feel like bringing a laptop. Sometimes I like to focus on banging out words distraction free without staring at the screen. Like when I used…

Would it be able to fit an iPad in a case?

There is always the "why bring dogs into our petty wars" argument. BUT a dog has a loyalty. Unlike cats. When I was living in Philadelphia, and I had to walk my pit bull at night, there was a unspoken understanding between us. If I was acting cautiously or guarded, the dog would get her defenses up and if anything…

I have [www.bhphotovideo.com] and I love it. Picture using a D80 and the Tamaron.

It's a damn shame ya snubbed Sword and Sworcery EP. A Damn Shame.

My Kuma (running at 3.4 ghz)/4850/4 gb of RAM, handles all my gaming needs. However, I would be a damn liar if I said I wasn't drooling over that i5. Then again my PC cost about $350 total when I built it two years ago. And it still runs everything I throw at it on high with AAx8.

Ever see a fetus at the 7 or 8 month mark? I have. It was pretty intense. It looks like a baby. Still a fetus but at least it doesn't look like a monster movie puppet.

People still are hung up on that "baby" thing. It's a fetus. You abort a fetus. You give birth to a baby. I am opposed to late term abortions, but if the thing in the womb looks like something you would kill with fire if it was slithering after you on the street, it's fair game.

When I was in elementary/middle/high school I had the computer. It was mine. My parents simply gave up on it. My dad bought an acer after I left for college, never used it. I switched him to a Mac and gave him my old iPhone. Now he is probably at my level circa 8th grade. Nearly 18 years after he brought home…
