@virtualvine1: My two theories on this are because there may be blind passengers in the back seat who can use the machine or, more likely, the company that makes the ATMs just uses the same part from their walk-up ATMs, which need to have braile, in order to save money.

@Gramma42ton: It will happen someday, with the assistance of a lot of computer and sensor technology. It'll be expensive as hell at first but 10 years later it will be pretty much standard.

This is our abomination, Oliver, a "Borgi" (Border Collie/Corgi mix) when he was a puppy.

@IQslump: I presented this idea in a Criminal Justice class a few years back (we were tasked with coming up with and presenting innovative ideas to various CJS related problems), that we give prisoners a goal that somehow benefits the world, for example give them a small pile of common materials and parts you would…

@Dinty: I know a blacksmith in WA state that still makes 120lb anvils. I'm gonna start watching him more closely. He used to bring the damn things into the UPS Store where I worked to ship them. Now that I think about it, they were probably just anvil-shaped packs of marijuana wrapped in aluminum foil. That…

@Mr. Lee: I think the Hummer belongs to the National Guard troops who caught them and are hauling the thing away.

@EverythingInThisThread: I'm getting dizzy hearing all this. I haven't even celebrated my birthday since I was 10 years old. I thought people grew out of big birthday celebrations by their late teens.

I bet she also paid rent and bills with the money she said she didn't have for ballooning. What a B-face!

@GitEmSteveDave: There could also be the question of cooked vs uncooked beef. If it's 36% beef by weight after cooking, then before cooking it was definitely over 40%. Most fast food restaurants quote the pre-cooked weight of beef, so that might be how they're getting away with it.

@the_amazing_doug: Someone usually posts this in any thread where anyone is doing anything related to winding or coiling cables.

@sydcinema: I imagine you might and up getting a lot of snow kicked up on you if this thing is in front.

@harei: I'm not a big Mac fan, but please don't keep trotting out that old trope. I know plenty of people who use their Macs to produce plenty of incredible work. I use Windows-based PCs because it's personal preference, but I know I can (and have) produced similar-quality work in OSX, as I'm sure they could on…

@alexLmx6: Agreed, I just wish they'd show both. It's easy to make a workspace that looks beautiful, it's much more challenging to make a workspace that is usable and efficient. I'd assume Lifehacker would be more interested in the latter, although I do believe both have their place.

@slob360: I think it comes from the fact that you'll never get the image/video quality from an iPhone as you get from an HDSLR (or even a decent modern P&S), so to make up for that lack of quality, you instead filter it for a more quirky effect, where the lack of quality is the actual draw and is, in fact, enhanced.

A really beautiful space, for sure, but:

@karyisme: I use Pulse on my tablet and the Google Reader mobile site on my phone. With lots of screen space, Pulse looks particularly awesome.

@gonintendo: Aye, corrected. Tried it on my GTablet and it's not there. Thought it was a stock thing, buggers. It's useful!

@ihityouinthenose: Also, I think if you're on Froyo or newer, holding the home button brings up the recent apps which has a Task Manager button that just takes you to the running tab.

Hmm, I wonder if I could make a tasker profile that would start my IM program when I receive an SMS with a trigger word. I imagine it's not hard but I haven't played with. I guess I could just receive the SMS telling me to sign on manually, but eh!

@sassafras: It's such a charming city, though!
