Salting the water does not affect the temperature in any significant way and other pasta fallacies debunked. Horray for Kenji and The Food Lab.

The preview still truncates the URL. I'm using Status 4 Ever to return the Status, err, Add-on Bar to previous functionality.

A student of my wife, who is under investigation for plagiarism, actually plagiarized my wife in his last test question.

That work should be entitled "A Study of Women's Crotches"

The Food Lab at Serious Eats did an excellent piece on this. The recipe works well, but it's hell on your food processor. Next time, I'm taking a hammer to the chocolate before I begin. I also added a pinch of cinnamon and cayenne.

For home - no, for work - yes

I've encountered more and more sites that are serving up content from ad servers. Browser extensions give you a simple way to turn it off.

I'm keeping my eye on SparkleShare.

@MattyMattMatt: The only other that I follow is pricenetwork.ca

I'll add another voice of caution. Two of the four recommendations appear in the EWG database and each has a poor rating due to health concerns (Banana Boat) (Aveeno). The other two brands do not appear.

You know how you start software reviews with Windows Only, or Mac Only, so that other users don't bother reading about something which is not applicable?

Interesting study but light on details. I guess it's because most consumers I know will simply buy a new laptop rather than go for repair service if it's more than a year or so old.

I could also put cereal on a pizza, in a bun or as a part of any other food canvas, but I wouldn't.

Still looking for a decent FOSS or freeware system that does automated revisioned backups for Windows XP.

I uninstalled notify-osd and went back to the older system. Works fine. Annoyances like this are why I ended up ditching Ubuntu after about 2 years as my main OS. A lot of change for the sake of change.

Calendar management?

What kind of wood is that? It's got such an even grain and seems really dry.

I just went through the pain of buying a power supply. I found that various different calculators would vary in their estimates by as much as 200W.

VOTE: MusicBrainz Picard

@Oneshot417: My new EEE 1000HE has a special partition that caches Windows boot files which makes startup for Windows really quick, but does not support any other OS. Check your BIOS, there might be a setting.
