I actually was not aware Deluge was available for Windows. And I thought uTorrent in Linux required using Wine. I just installed it from a repository in Linux, and have been using uTorrent on Windows. I also used to use Azureus before I discovered uTorrent.

Dang. Now I want one... I don't know of any place that has them here and I'm too lazy to make my own. (and I never get recipes right anyway)

They could save some money by cleaning with mops instead of toothbrushes.

The proof is in the pooping?

All this means is that Microsoft is working on DirectWeb for their next DirectX, and will somehow dupe a bunch of decent websites out there into using it, breaking compatibility will all other browsers.

If you liked Alienware /before/ Dell bought them out, you might want to check out OriginPC. When Dell bought Alienware, the founders of Alienware broke off and started a new OEM. I've never seen an OriginPC, but you can have them put whatever you want in your desktop. If they don't have it, they'll find it. You…

If those bearings were supposed to be typing, the illusion was very poor. The letters on the device's screen were nowhere near in-sync.

It is very likely a government backed Stuxnet, but it could still have been some 13-year old in his or her parent's basement who wanted to blow up or black out Iran for the heck of it. Yes, only a government would be able to benefit from screwing another country, but some people pull crap like this for fun.

Vote: Deluge

I get people asking me about twice a month if my LG Rumor Touch is a "Really old iPhone". I say no, and they say, "But it has a touch screen!".

IIRC, the company behind Pantone tried to literally patent blue so that nobody could use a specific range of blue hue without paying licencing fees.

Exactly. Let me keep track of due dates really easy, as well as study for chem tests when I didn't have my huge book with me. (I only had chem as an elective, but I'll be darned if my iPod wasn't more useful than I expected)

They probably see your connection to your home computer, and unless you're using a non-standard port, they know you're using VNC. Also, VNC tends to be unencrypted unless you're using proprietary not-quite-vnc. If they wanted to, they could still see exactly what you're doing.

Actually, the A9 processor will be used in iMacs within the next 10 years and support a maximum of 512MB RAM, because you "can't put a cap on magic" with something as obscure as a number!

Have you ever heard of Pantone?

Only on GSM networks like AT&T, T-Moblie, Orange, etc. Almost all non-GSM phones (Verizon, Sprint) have the rough equivalent of a SIM card hard-wired into the phone. This is why new GSM phones just need to get the SIM put in, but new non-GSM phones need to have their serial number added to your account, then…

I'm imagining that they'll sell the cell companies expensive SIM readers that plug into the iPhone's dock connector, read the SIM's contents into NVRAM, then destroy the original SIM.

Wow. I would love that ringtone :). I could get really evil stares with that.

This always has worked wonderfully for me when my friends forget the password to their own computers: [www.pogostick.net]

For some strange reason, Autochk.exe on my laptop keeps corrupting itself to the point that SFC sees the problem but refuses to repair it. According to to a hard-to-find KB article, it's due to my laptop's built-in infrared receiver (that I don't even use). I have to occasionally install an out-of-band hotfix for it…
