    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    I misused the word "providers". I meant cable companies, i.e.: middle man leeches.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I really think that's the wrong way to look at it. A wedding is not a financial transaction between the hosts and the guests(unless you're Italian). Between travel and lodging for the guests and hosting for the main couple, pretty much everyone loses. It's big party and scale it accordingly...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    I guess? The bread machine doesn't require any cleaning? I mean, banana bread is really simple. Wet ingredients in a bowl, buzz it with a stick blender(I hate chunks of banana, ruins the texture of the bread), stir in the flour, being careful not to overmix(how does the breadmixer ensure...

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    Doubtful. Well, it might lead to that eventually, but that's certainly not the impetus here. I'm betting HBO is the lone exception to a-la-carte costing providers more money.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I somewhat understand the cheapness. Look at it from their perspective. I don't know how remote they are, but a family of 5 does not travel trivially. Couple hotel rooms(maybe 1 if you put someone on a cot), food not at the reception, gas. They're out ~$400 just to attend. Hope none of the...

    What's advantageous about making a quick bread in a bread maker? They're basically cakes.

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    I use a Rosewill USB 2T2R that I bought ~4 years ago. Works just fine. 2Mbps sounds like the adapter is stuck in UBS 1.0 mode. Can you ensure that the port you've plugged it into is running in USB 2.0 mode? Put a USB drive in the same port and see how fast a large file copies.

    Commuting to and from work

    Yes, but if the cars can talk to the traffic light, it can be greatly improved. I don't think a camera can tell if a person is turning right(on red). At least, I don't think a camera economically feasible for a traffic light can. Also, I honestly don't know the range on traffic cameras. But...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    People that ask "how's it going?" as you walk past each other in hallway. You can't lead off with that, so the exchange goes: Hey Hey, how's it going? Good, and you? Good. By the end of the third line, we're already past each other and now either have to slow down or talk louder like...

    This is probably going to come out horribly formatted. Also, these are changes only. So earlier datamined changes are not reflected here. Ugh, it is horribly formatted.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Nulolan, my apologies, I didn't mean to imply that "patch notes" meant I read them off the client. Someone else datamined the patch and posted the changes on diablofans.com. If you can't visit that site from work, I'll copy/paste it for you in a spoiler. Agreed Bixxby. Though...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    New beta patch notes are up. Just from reading the monk and barb sections, looks like they're trying to slightly nerf how much resources generators generate. IDK, seems a bit weird to tune those down. Lots of other changes too. Not happy if they actually removed the base 25% movement speed...

    Commuting to and from work

    Perhaps not automated cars, but I would love traffic lights that were contextually aware. I've got two lights on my commute that are hair trigger sensor lights. If anyone, just one fucking car, shows up on at the perpendicular intersection, the light immediately changes. Fuck those 5-10 cars...

    Home remedies that work

    Speaking of shaving, I ran out of shaving creme recently and decided to use my body wash instead. Lubricates much better since I get much less tugging when the razor starts to dull and I don't spend time banging all the hair out of the razor. That's probably the best part, just swish it in the...

    How do you determine that a car will be reliable for 10 years though? Even in the last few years I've heard mention of some cars from surprising companies(ford and kia) for reliability.

    That's fair enough, I'll accept that you can obtain that kind of physique at home. I didn't mean to conflate going to the gym as a requirement. I had assumed that her career was fitness based because of the adverts on the shirts. If she's doing this on the side while being a mother, I take...

    Again, the 8 hours was just supposed to signify a typical work day, as in, that's her career. Chaos has to go to gym that has childcare. Just having the kids off your hands for even a couple hours is a huge advantage. You can lose weight through eating, but I disagree that you'll be in...

    How many women do you know look like that after a pregnancy? You can eat off the extra fat with calorie deficits, but your muscle tone won't look as good as hers without some weight lifting.

    That's not the point. I know she isn't working out 8 hours a day. She has the option to though. There are a lot of things that have nothing directly related to actually working out that make working out tough. Having a kid or three is a major one. And she side steps most of that by having...

    Gonna quote that post McCheese once you fall off the pizza roll wagon. I'm going to mostly agree with the canuck, it's mostly self aggrandizement. I'm going to assume that working out is her job. Yeah, pretty fucking easy to stay in shape after three kids if you have ~8 hours a day, 5 days...

    I believe VZW's voice network(3G) still uses ESN registration, not SIM cards. I mean, no harm in trying if you have everything already.

    No worries dude, do what you want with the gear. RMT is what I'll eventually do too anyway after I get paragon 100 on my monk and maybe on the DH. Depends if I get bored first. Only so many bells you can drop. Are you selling the gear on the AH first then selling the gold, or just straight...

    Still need some fat while losing weight. If you've seen my posts in the weight loss thread, I basically follow the macros diet, which is pretty loose on what you can eat. Our culture has erroneously linked eating fat will make you a fat person. Thus, even though I eat pretty carefree, fat is...
