    Chromecast - the new Google TV

    Can you plug it into an HDMI port on your AV receiver instead of the TV?

    How thick are plasmas these days? I have to say I am in love with the fact that my 60" LED is like 3/4" thick.

    Plus apparently they just happened to have solid steel curtain rods with razor sharp points on them.

    If they suddenly discovered that Quinn was a serial killer that would be the perfect expression of how this show has gone full retard.

    So tell me about Utah...

    East of Salt Lake City is awesome gorgeous mountains and/or awesome gorgeous desert rock formations and such. West of Salt Lake is a trackless wasteland similar to the whole state of Nevada. It is most definitely a lot more geographically interesting than Illinois. I remember being pretty...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think she assumed (probably correctly) that Vorenus would kill her if he knew the truth, which would have been the appropriate reaction for a Roman man of the time.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Did I forget something that she did or are you all this angry about her having a baby with another guy when she thought Vorenus had been dead for years?

    The NSA watches you poop.

    The only way to have any real change is to stop voting for Republicans and Democrats. Obama is proof that you are just kidding yourself pretending there are any substantial difference between them. Of course Romney or McCain would have been just as bad if not worse. Until people get past the...

    Yes, this is exactly what I'm talking about. I've heard this explanation 100 times from people who have never seen a 4K TV.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    She is hot. Loved her in Rome. I can't remember who Ellaria Sand is though, is she going to be screwing anybody?

    amanda berry found..more importantly, awesome black man in cleveland.

    There are cases where there is literally zero doubt of guilt. In the case I was a juror on, they had DNA evidence and two confessions. The defense made absolutely no attempt to suggest that he had not done the crime. I think he would have plead guilty if the DA had been willing to just give...

    Congress makes a lot more sense when you stop thinking that they are motivated by ideology or the will of the voters.

    Have you guys that are giving us the facts about 4K and viewing distances actually seen a 4K TV? I hear nerds say this all the time but the HD reporters I have heard from that have actually seen the TVs say it's a very noticeable difference if your TV is over about 55".

    Chromecast - the new Google TV

    This is why they need a version with an ethernet connector. I already went to the trouble of running cat 5 to my entertainment center because streaming over wifi blows.

    Chromecast - the new Google TV

    A $35 plug and play device doesn't replace $1000+ worth of computer/NAS/Hard Disks and a $200 boxee box plus a bunch of pirated content? You're right, what a useless piece of shit.

    2013 NFL Season

    It's definitely true that not all running QBs are the same either. A guy that tries to be a hero on busted plays like RG3 or Mike Vick seems much more likely to get hurt than someone who runs smart and knows when to slide or get out of bounds. Size matters as well, Kaepernick has like 20 lbs...

    2013 NFL Season

    I heard Trent Dilfer on the Dave Dameshek Podcast recently pointing out that Colin Kaepernick seems to be very good so far at avoiding contact. If you look at the playoffs last year, he was ranked 7th with 7 total hits even though he played in more games in the post season than anyone except...

    Chromecast - the new Google TV

    Looks like it's just a streamer so you wouldn't be able to play your own content on it unless you used something like Plex with Roku.

    Chromecast - the new Google TV

    That's hot. I wonder if they will make a wired version. I have an ethernet hub behind my TV already so I would prefer to use that rather than the WiFi that is on the other end of the house.

    Yesterday was my dog's 4th birthday.

    I have to say that I would not have guessed that posting a video of singing happy birthday to a dog could turn into a 10 page thread.

    Dexter

    No shit, and did it ever cross anyone's mind that she wasn't going to go back and save him afterwards? At no point was I remotely concerned that either of them would die. Deb's character is some kind of cartoon this season and it doesn't interest me at all.

    Yesterday was my dog's 4th birthday.

    Nothing false about it, he is just as much lab as pit bull, and I doubt anyone's going to do any DNA testing on him unless it's an extremely unusual situation. Anyway, the dog is a huge pussy and somewhat elderly so there is very little chance of him being involved in any drama. Changing the...

    Yesterday was my dog's 4th birthday.

    The city of Denver, CO has a pit bull ban. My sister lived there briefly with her half breed pit bull but no one ever gave her a hard time about it. She changed the breed designation on his RFID thingy from pit bull to labrador before she moved down there just to be safe though.

    Dexter

    Dexter will go to prison and then all of the murderers and child molesters will inexplicably be killed and wind up in the ocean and the prison guards will have no idea who is doing it even though they have video surveillance of the whole place and all the prisoners were Dexter's roommate the...

    The Newsroom S2

    I was on the fence about whether to watch this season until I saw the super smarmy, self important commercials on HBO leading up to the show. The spots before and after Game of Thrones convinced me not to watch the show.

    Living Arrangements for Grandparents, Disabled, or Otherwise Included Family Members

    It depends on how much care you need. My grandad was only $3000 a month at first, but then they had to upgrade his care and Surprise! Doubling your rates. And yeah, hopefully you will never need long term care, my grandmother is 89 and still living alone although we are getting someone to...

    Living Arrangements for Grandparents, Disabled, or Otherwise Included Family Members

    No insurance makes sense if you know that you're not going to need it for 30 years. You can't always assume that you won't need long term care before age 80 though. If you wanted to start an account at age 35 that was specifically to cover long-term care and pay into it for most of your life...

    Sharknado (2013)

    IMDB lists the budget at $1 Million. I heard an interview with the makers and I think they said $750K. CGI is getting cheaper.

    Living Arrangements for Grandparents, Disabled, or Otherwise Included Family Members

    Yeah, you need to start it early. My mom was 59 when we started it and I think it costs like $6K a year. That sounds painful until you consider that it's less than 2 months worth of nursing home care. Also it pays a set amount, not just what the care costs, so you have to keep increasing it...

    Living Arrangements for Grandparents, Disabled, or Otherwise Included Family Members

    If you have a relative that has any property that they want to pass down then they need to have nursing home insurance. Nursing homes are like $5000 a month and Medicare will not cover it until every bit of their money and property is gone. This includes property that they have "gifted" to...

    I know we're not supposed to point stuff like this out on Dexter, but it's nice to know that a drunk woman can walk into the middle of Miami homicide in the middle of the day, get whisked into an interrogation room for half an hour, then be carried out unconscious through the hallway and then...

    At least for now you can't resell them. The device is tied to your google account and you can't log into any other account with it.
