I'd like to see more emphasis on free software again - that's how a lot of us got hooked on Lifehacker in the first place years ago.

You should've grabbed Flash.

Are you saying you don't care to know your legal rights?

There are lots of people in jail that didn't break the law. Innocent until proven guilty is an ideal, but the reality is that, once you're in criminal "justice" pipeline, there are many factors biased toward keeping you there. I was once arrested for being in the vicinity of a fight between two strangers when I was…

I have purchased a couple of USB hubs and a USB to HDMI/DVI convert from Plugable. Great products and very good customer service.

Placing ambient lighting behind your monitor is said to decrease eye strain from prolonged use of said monitor. IKEA has LED strip lighting that's cheap and you can get a color-changing version with a cool color wheel so that you can match your ambient light color to your task and/or mood.

Debit cards have zero advantage over credit cards. If your card is stolen and money is stolen, you may not get it back, with a debit card. For that alone, I stay away from using them for purchases. Then there's cash back rewards. Then there's other perks. Just make sure you pay them off in full every month.

Thanks Vinny!
