    The problem is that your food will have a hint of soft pretzel. Not necessarily a bad thing, though.

    ^^ What he said. Your mixture looks like it could use some seasoning too. Some garlic and salt would go pretty good in there.

    Kids? or No kids?

    Sounds like your kid has been playing some first person shooters. Or cowboys and indians.

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    This was worth studying? I thought it was common knowledge. Still not justification for crazy caveman diets.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yep. Agreed that the game is bad at pointing this info out. Not sure I would know about it if I didn't read patch notes. Example: see all the people a few weeks ago that thought the Watchtower was STILL in Northern Highlands.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    You can't cap your MF with the MP setting. Only gear and paragon is counted against the cap.

    Engagement rings

    Marriage is not a prerequisite for this. Bro, do you even talent tree?

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Other information mediums are slow since they are, at the very least, inhibited by the brain's sensors for that medium(eyes, ears, mouth, etc). Secondly, the type of medium could be inherently slow. Like reading a book. Or the speed of sound. Jacking directly into someone's brain bypasses...

    Tablets

    It can handle 720p x264 just fine. The containers are software dependent. I haven't tried 1080i/p, but not sure why you would bother with those on a Nexus 7.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Like learning a language? The words you're reading right now and then use to type up a response are encoded messages all the same. Instead of your eyes being the stimulus, it's an electrical wire. Which, if I understand basic brain chemistry, isn't that much different.

    5 major ISPs roll out the "six strikes" policy regarding illegal downloads.

    Oh man, I can't wait for digitized food so I can pirate me some authentic kobe beef! You make valid points. I would like some hard numbers too. Because I seriously doubt cable company's margins are that slim. And even if they are, I think Steam has proven that electronic media can exist at...

    5 major ISPs roll out the "six strikes" policy regarding illegal downloads.

    Isn't that the point? They are offering an inferior product that they need to bundle to make money. Shouldn't market forces be allowed to push bad TV off the air. Chopped, which I do actually watch, was supposed to be best example of this. 99% of food network is complete crap, especially...

    Simas: Some of those choices are incomplete. Here, I don't watch much tv. Find me a complete package that consists of these TV shows: Jeopardy The Daily Show The Colbert Report Chelsea Lately Chopped I'm not arguing the legality of the act. I know it's illegal. On the morality...

    5 major ISPs roll out the "six strikes" policy regarding illegal downloads.

    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...

    5 major ISPs roll out the "six strikes" policy regarding illegal downloads.

    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.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    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.

    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.

    Engagement rings

    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.

    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!!!

    Smartphones

    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...

    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.

    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?

    Retirement questions - any early retirees out there?

    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.
