    Can't you set it to use both? Or do you actually have to change a setting to go from iris scanner to fingerprint reader?

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    Since I had been googling this stuff, this article popped up in my Google Now page. Every Stephen King Movie, Ranked From Worst to Best - Vulture 38 damn movies. I don't agree with their ranking, but it's an interesting list anyway. They actually left "The Lawnmower Man" off the list because...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    He beat 2 sand snakes at once and the 3 of them captured Bronn and Jamie so I'd say we're supposed to believe that he's a top tier badass.

    Embedded Microchips for Work/Life

    I think you guys are reading more into this than it actually does. It doesn't track your location, it just lets you open locked doors (and apparently buy shit at the vending machine) just like an access badge would. It's basically a badge that you can't leave at home and you don't have to...

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    His worst one had to be "The Lawnmower Man". It was 37% on RT, but that was only because the critics thought the computer animation was impressive for the time. In King's defense though, the plot of the movie had absolutely nothing to do with the King story which was written in the early 70's...

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    Shawshank Redemption was "just ok"? Come on dude, that was a great movie. 91% on rotten tomatoes and 7 oscar nominations (although no wins). "Stand By Me" was another Stephen King adaptation that is generally considered to be a very good movie although I have not personally seen it.

    Shawshank Redemption also. They are more bad than good though.

    .GIF - Jiff or Giff?

    The problem is that it's a word that people read a lot and don't say out loud very often, so most people decided how it was pronounced instead of actually hearing it. I have said "jif" from the beginning because I'm not an illiterate mouth breather, but if after having it confirmed, you still...

    Gravel decided the writing was going to suck as soon as they ran out of book source material and has dedicated himself to proving it ever since. Given that, he's not really worth arguing with.

    .GIF - Jiff or Giff?

    There have been many examples of words where the G is pronounced both ways in English, and we all know that there aren't a lot of hard and fast rules for spelling and pronunciation in English. Words are pronounced the way people pronounce them, and if that changes, the "official" rules change...

    Phobia of flying...what to take?

    If I were you I wouldn't attempt to drug myself. Just bring something to distract you, maybe an audio book, close your eyes, breath deep, and practice relaxation techniques. Any time I get nervous flying I look for some small woman or child who is relaxed and figure that I shouldn't be more...

    You definitely got tree feeling that the girl with the pixie cut was going to be significant but I just assumed it was because she saw Cersie and Jamie in bed together.

    Phobia of flying...what to take?

    If I had to ride Amtrak because I 100% knew in advance that my plane was going down I would still think twice about it. People survive plane crashes sometimes.

    Phobia of flying...what to take?

    You can get shitfaced on a plane as long as you have enough self control to keep your mouth shut and aren't the kind of drunk that might decide to stand on the flight attendant's cart and take a dump. Alcohol is available 24-7 at most airports and on planes partly for this reason. Also -

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Yeah, it's just wanking off to point it out now, and I think it would be very hard to argue that the show would be better with realistic travel times. It would just make the story 10x longer and more boring if they even attempted to be realistic. We only have like 10 episodes left, let's stick...

    My phone is always getting turned on in my pocket, volume gets turned down while I'm listening to headphones, 20 pictures of the inside of my pocket getting randomly taken, etc. Glad to hear that it hasn't been an issue with the pixel. If inexpensive Bluetooth earbuds are lasting 7-8 hours...

    Do you guys that have Pixels have trouble with hitting the power button/volume rocker by accident? That has been my #1 complaint with the 6P and those buttons on the pixel 2 renders look exactly the same. No headphone jack might be a dealbreaker for me on the Pixel 2. I tried bluetooth...

    As someone who is sitting on several domains, you're never going to use that shit. Get what you can for it and buy some beer or something. If nothing else they're saving you $15 a year.

    I love my $15 Walmart rice cooker. Put rice and water in, push the button, come back 20 minutes later or 45 minutes later and it's good to go. I've had it like 12 years and it's good as new but I'm not a huge rice eater. I have an instant pot also and it works fine but I haven't really used it...

    Organic vegetables, especially leafy greens, do tend to be more likely to be contaminated with e. coli due to the use of "natural" fertilizer and hand washing won't help with that.

    I re-watched s6e9 last night and Theon and Yara did indeed bring Dany 100 ships but I had forgotten that she also captured the masters' fleet so she does have well over 100 ships. Also, the battle of the bastards was awesome.

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with municipal tap water unless you live in Flint, Michigan. All of those filters are just a way for dumb people to waste money so if you have to buy one, go as cheap as possible.

    I think I would have to point out that the show airs at 9 PM on Sunday and thus does not interfere with a 9-5 job in any way. I don't know how many soldiers a medieval ship carries, but unless it's 1000 men I don't think 100 ships could transport Dany's army, especially if the Dothraki are...

    Did they smoke up the oven because of the fat coming out of the wings? Alton Brown's method has you steam them first to get some of the fat out before you put them in the oven. The baking powder thing is very interesting though, I am going to have to try it.
