Technically, yes. But certain parts of the supply chain(ISPs) are already monopolies or getting pretty darn close in most areas. So if we don't like the tv package one provider offers, we cancel them and go with...? A true marketplace should allow people to vote with their dollars and it's...

I thought media groups were going pretty heavily after newsgroups already. The best indexing site just went under and new content gets removed so quickly that the "super secret" place to upload changes frequently.

Did you erase the first month from your memory? Remember, since they are forcing you to play online, bnet's performance must be held to a much higher standard. Besides error 37, which went on for a lot longer than launch day, any disconnects, lags, rubber banding, etc, is a serious knock...

No sympathy, give me products I want to buy. Don't package them(tv channels) with tons of crap. I'm sure someone will post that oatmeal comic about GoT soon.

How quickly people forget error 37.

I feel like we should have a sister thread, how to lower her expectations of the wedding. Because that can easily dwarf the costs of the engagement ring.

He also played Sylvester Graham. And the butcher. And a whole bunch of other stuff. He's all over Good Eats as minor roles.

It's not judging for the want of the diamond ring. It's judging on the cognitive dissonance of wanting a diamond ring after being told how much they're actually worth and how much of a "tradition" it really is.

Goth-lite. Luckily she's grown out of it. And if I had said blood orange instead?

You missed out on a whole ton of great mods.

Only on the grounds that it's a silly to wear white JUST because it's tradition. My wife wore black to the wedding.

Doesn't get the pussy as moist.

Can't help you out because I was able to use my wife's grandmother's wedding ring as her engagement ring. 0 dollars and tons of sentimentality! Actually, is there something like that in her or your family? Some sort of heirloom. I want to hear what happened to that guy with the stuckup bitch.

People that won't turn right on red and thus trigger the sensor light, causing me to brake going right to left on the intersecting road. Sensor lights with no minimum wait times. New car shows up at red light? LETS CHANGE THE LIGHTS!!!

But does it do federal AND...provincial(?) returns for free? I hate our lobbying system so much.

I don't think that's how push email works. My Exchange password expired over the weekend and it was only bugging me about it every 10 minutes. And that was probably for the account syncing, not the actual new email. However, if you implement that hamfisted approach, you'll be killing a lot...

Wouldn't that kill the primary advantage of push email? I want to know when email comes in without having to look at my phone.

What if the treadmill is going in reverse?

The same seeds used to make chia pets? Yeah, I want to eat that shit.

Can't remember last time I needed to do a battery pull on my gnex. Don't miss the microsd slot either. Both antiquated pieces of technology(in cell phones), so get used to it. Or just complain each time a new phone comes out.

Hopefully it's a good version of "anyone can win it" this year, and not the shitfest we got a few years ago. Ugh, Uconn v Butler finale...

Why ask us? Ask the AH. That's a trifecta amulet. Even if it is a tad low on IAS, I bet you could get some decent $$ for it on the RMAH. Silly me not noticing account bound.

None at all? That's weird, I remember getting my Nexus 7 and all my apps(from the play store) loaded up. APN settings, screen timeout settings, everything. What do you have checked in "Backup & restore" in settings?

If employers are still paying for healthcare by the time I get old, I'm sure as fuck still working for as long as I can. See the healthcare thread.

Define everything else. Apps and settings should be remember by your google account. Contacts too, IF you created them under your google account. If you had someone's phone number imported from your old phone under a carrier's app, and their email under you google account, and you just merged...

Interesting point. Power series sum of 1.07^X from 1 -> 18 is a multiplier of 36.37896. So, the per year cost would have to be ~27.5k for a total cost 1M by an age of 18. Which I think is about twice too high, but that obviously depends on your locale. If you're going to pay for private...

The per year costs were supposed to illustrate that your figure was way too high. Median family income is actually below $1M/18.

You really think a kid costs ~50k a year?

Job prospects are probably more dependent on where you're willing to live. Though, you do live in AZ, so you set the bar pretty low there. Boston and San Francisco/Silicon Valley are the big tech hubs. DC if you're willing to work for the government. I would say the hardware side of...

You didn't recognize the voice actor for Dr. Krieger. Do you even Alton Brown?

Most of the time, they come in the form of a USB A female to USB micro B male cable. Since I'm betting you don't have a standard USB cord with a USB A female end, the USB OTG cord allows you to plug things like memory sticks, external hard drives, keyboards, etc into your phone or tablet. You...

No. OTG cables have the ID line tied to ground on the slave end.

You're channeling correlation pretty heavily there.

KFC smells delicious!

All of you are looking in the wrong place. They moved it to the Southern Highlands back in 1.0.5.

Two weapons of the same base speed make it easy to hit breakpoints too. Honestly, the only other combo that works almost as good is a 1.4/1.2 combo. You get too much breakpoint divergence otherwise.

Well, to be fair, the game actually never points it out. Unless it's on one of those loading screen tips that my SSD never lets me read. So, really, the only way for someone to find out, JUST playing the game, is to buy an item and watch with horror as their movement speed hits that 25% cap on...

Counter point is that you're cooking it in the over longer, giving more time for juices and fats to seep out. I thought most high end places used only a salamander to cook steaks. I say cook it in the pan at the right heat to get crust on both sides and the middle medium rare at the same time.

Good eats episode on cooking steak. First half is about buying a whole vacuum packed tenderloin and trimming it. But the second half can be applied to just about any boneless steak. And the steaks he cut look decently thick. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shJz6mFN4tA

What size are the steaks? You really shouldn't ever need to put a steak in the oven unless they are ultra thick. At which point, I would suggest butterflying them. You're resting your meat outside of the fridge for up to hour before cooking, right?
