Can I ask a question? Will there be a day where Rihanna does something and it isn't instantly connected with the whole Chris Brown thing? Every time I read an article about her or one that even references her, there's always this Chris Brown angle. What he did to her was beyond awful and disgusting, but I think it…

I never finished the first Half-Life, got bored wandering around Xen and started playing TFC instead... but I told everyone I finished it, or rather, never admitted I hadn't (I was on a lot of HL/mod forums back then).

@reynwrap582: Turns out Crashplan offers exactly this service.

@arahman56: I think he's saying that if you need to restore your data, you either have 30 days to download all of it, or you can order the data copied onto hard drives and sent to you? So it's basically $200 for every 150GB of data, and the data is randomly selected, not necessarily what you want...

This might be the best place to ask right now:

@Morwynn: +1 I wish I'd read your response before I went on my little ranting and raving session.

I'm sorry, I get the sentiment but this article just reads like it was written by a "nice guy" who ends up managing to stumble into the usual traps... Sexy women can't be self-respecting. Beautiful women are secretly ugly, oh except all women are complex, oh except I judged her as a 2 because she opened her mouth and…

@Wolfabeast: I'm hoping for a pantsuit update!

@LolaSocks: My grandmother was an English teacher, and I'm still traumatized enough by the time I accidentally wore my baseball hat in her house...and she didn't even do or say anything beyond giving me a look! If she had been SecState I would have walked back outside and slept on the lawn in the fetal position.

@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.
