    Just in case you didn't know, the Malazan Book of The Fallen may be done, but Erikson isn't done writing in that universe. He's contracted for another 5 books. I was kinda disappointed by Forge of Darkness though. Hoping it will pick up a bit. And the Karsa trilogy is almost guaranteed to be...

    Looks like someone's eating a lot of eggs or crustaceans. Remember, if you set your goal as weight loss in that app, you're supposed to eat the suggested target, not further under eat it.

    Links to those statements? I thought that was all just internet speculation at this point. I'd be very surprised if they can do VOIP over 3G. I've attempted that using a special codec(iLBC) and the quality was choppy at best.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I believe Titan_atlas had that small Ron Jeremy avatar back on the old boards. And he was the DK that became a running gag for a little while after he stopped showing up abruptly. He got in with that James' LETS INVITE EVERYONE fiasco and stuck around for a bit of cataclysm.

    Yes, it's your wireless most likely. I moved back in May. At my old place, it was a wired connection from my computer to the router, wireless to the Boxee. Now it's wireless both ways and buffering issues have been cropping up. Audio stream content might be a factor too.

    If Google can integrate gvoice in a smart fashion with Hangouts, that will be pretty cool. I'm worried about a couple things: -Hangouts only seems to let you (video)call people on your G+ contact list. One would assume that integrating gvoice with Hangouts would mean opening up the contact...

    Depends on how old your TV is, technically. But since I doubt you have a TV with only USB 1.1 ports, you SHOULDN'T have a problem buying a N adapter. Of course, googling your TV's model and 'wireless adapter' will probably yield better results.

    It's a machined aluminum unibody! That they managed that without fucking up the antennae gives me an engineering boner. If they were selling the HTC One unlocked at the same price(or nearly) as the Nexus 5, I'd buy the One instead.

    Quick, name me something that weighs 40 lbs. That is not a weight people deal with commonly, so they can't just look at you, after you've changed already, and accurately eyeball how much more you should lose. They just think "40 is a lot!". I still get shit from my family about being too...

    WTF is a pudding cake? Any resident Brits care to explain? I looked up a nutrition label for pudding cake, which she says she eats at least 6 servings("a pack of 2-4, I'll eat 3 of those"), that's 900-1800 calories right there.

    Eh, I guess I'll revisit Plex when I have multiple TVs, whenever that is. Still dubious. You go through the trouble of sanitizing filenames you just downloaded? I don't think you can do that while the torrent is still being shared.

    The setup involved with my Boxee Box was to find my shared folder on my computer and add it to the "My Sources". And it cost $180. Seems pretty easy and cheap to me. BTW, Plex's scraper got some of my shows wrong. It translated some of the American Pie movies into "American Heritage...

    For that application, probably. The cold from the ice cream will make it hard and brittle, as well as giving a slightly grainy mouthfeel. Which, along with the ice cream itself(unless it's soft), will ensure you squish the shit out of the donut as you try to bite through the whole thing...

    Whiskey

    I 100% realize I'm being a cheapass, but I compare the prices versus what I usually drink(rum or gin) and I can a lot more resulting drink(cocktails) from those than I can with whiskey. Not a fair comparison, but whatever. Very surprised to read someone recommending Trader Joes to save money.

    I was being sarcastic. I don't like wings either. Too messy and there's too much mystery stuff that's unpleasant to eat. Chewy skin, cartilage, unrendered fat, bones, ugh. Too much work for a little amount of meat. And ranch(i.e. buttermilk dressing) basically shouldn't exist. I can't...

    I still don't enjoy most beersBut I do like a good whiskey. Shame my wallet doesn't. I'll be honest though, as long as it's a whiskey, I don't really care. Are people that specific that they can tell the difference between a whiskey made from a 51% corn/grain mash and something made from rye?

    More charred, crispy exterior relative to overall burger mass? Burgers are about the only place you can get away with that because it's ground meat and usually served with some or a lot of fat, thus making overcooking more forgiving.
