"Zero tolerance just makes people look intolerant, not smart."

Everyone knows you don't say the NAME of the letters with these acronyms. You just say the whole thing as a word. Try it! It flows MUCH...actually, it flows exactly the same. Do as you wish.

Could also be Mac v PC. Technically two different platforms. Plus at least the PS3 has keyboard+mouse support. Not sure about 360. I don't think I need to mention the Wii here, do I?

I believe they mentioned that you could split screen on only one machine. For instance, in a four-player game, it could be 2-1-1, but never 2-2. Not sure about 3-1, but I don't think that's possible either. I could be thinking of the wrong game, but since splitscreen online is such a rarity I'm assuming it's this…

Pretty much the exact response I'm going for. Hardly practical. But still awesome, in its own way. (the geek way)

My ONLY issue with this is that I feel like the clip would break off if it was in my pocket for too long. Even with the rubber protector, I imagine the clip would eventually break off and need replacement.

Let's not forget about Linux!

Do not like MediaGo. But wifi b + nonconcurrent downloads = antequated wifi implementation anyway, so I wind up using MediaGo or PS3 to download and transfer, regardless.

I'm with you. This plan is going to backfire on them, in my case as well. Because I will be paying $2 less per month, and continue my 1-disc plan, meaning their shipping costs will remain exactly as they are currently.

Greyish-side?

"and doesn't hurt to check."

I can't say I own one yet, but I've decided I'm about to buy the Netgear WNDR3700. It's gotten very solid reviews everywhere I've read about it, and the only reason I haven't bought it yet is because of the slightly high price, although for a solid N router, it's not terrible—right in your "low $100s" range as far as…

Others have pointed out the terminology mishap, so I'll leave that to them. But I've found that stripping speaker wire is quite simple using a normal swiss army knife's scissors. They are small and thin enough that you can easily make a first cut without cutting into the wire itself. What I tend to do is make a…

Was anyone really NOT aware that this was the whole purpose of the price increase? To push people to use just 1 service instead of two, and specifically streaming? Because I thought it was fairly obvious.

I will probably be dropping streaming in favor of pure DVD, to be honest. Not the move they were hoping I'd make, but streaming simply doesn't have a satisfying amount of content available yet.

Obviously I'm going to die. So I shouldn't be unhappy about that?

I wonder if anyone's still here. I'm trying to find out why at some restaurants, the fried plantains (platanos maduros) are prepared in such a way that they almost have a skin around them, whereas at home when I prepare them, they have unrefined edges. Is it just a matter of how ripe the plantains are? (I've been…

Protip: Alt-D produces the diff of 2 "tabs" of Notepad++. Great for if you're trying to figure out changes between one version of a file and another, and you have 2 separate files rather than an SVN/Git/whatever diff-able file. (If you download 2 versions of a file online, for instance, and want to see what's…

Definitely 100% worth it. Bought it at the same price in early April, and my former roommate and I coop online very frequently. For under $10, it's a steal. If you're playing solo it might get old a little faster, but...it's still probably worth the price.

And if you get any invites, you're going to send them out to your loyal readers, right? I've been trying to find a USABLE free group video chat program/service for a while now, and I can't find one. (I don't own a Mac—I hear they've got iChat for that)
