When you look back at this post, and the rest of them in this thread this afternoon, and consider that it is basically a semantic argument about a TV show with a person that you will never meet, does it seem like a good use of time?
I did a smaller version of this once when I ordered a Harmony Remote from Amazon. I got the package and opened it in my car, then later when I got into the house I noticed that it didn't have a battery in the package. I called Amazon, sent the remote back and got a new one and then like 2...
I agree, that is the best thing he's done in a while. The "Ghosts of the Ostfront" series about the eastern front in WWII was awesome as well. The Rome series was good, but maybe a little more information than I really wanted about Rome before the Julius Ceasar period which I find more...
You should never watch ESPN for more than about 20 minutes a day. I have watched maybe 45 minutes today and I have heard the Bucs coach explain that he thinks Glennon gives them the best chance to win at least 37 times.
And the cable itself can't possibly electrocute you because it should only have access to 5V DC which is harmless. The only way that enough voltage to shock you could get to the cable is if the power supply had malfunctioned.

It takes 30mA to cause fibrillation. Your phone draws 500-1000 mA while charging. If there was a fuse in there (there isn't) it would be at least a 1.5-2A fuse. Fuses are good for preventing fires and melted wires but useless for protecting you...
Most of the time when you get electrocuted it's not that the electricty "burns out" your heart. If the power is AC, it causes heart fibrillation. The frequency of AC power is 60 Hz which is about 10 times the average frequency of your heart, which is a problem because it's slow enough that...

The Marshall dude is way over the top. They are also really pushing the envelope on violence in this season too. I had to avert my eyes during the bottle opening scene. The part where he shot the chick in his hotel room was ridiculous too. I have to think it was really an accident, but now...
If Vernon Davis and Patrick Willis are still out and Aldon Smith is in rehab it could definitely happen. On the other hand, the Rams suck.
I think the 49ers are fucked when it comes to winning the division unless something major happens in Seattle (Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch colliding...
Hi. I've never done anything in my life that anyone gave a shit about, but I heard some kids were having 15 minutes of fame so I guess I'd better go online and shit on them and hopefully someone will be impressed with my musical knowledge and how awesome I am at playing music according to me.
I don't know if I agree with this. The running game got going pretty well against the colts, and Kaepernick can only do so much when the receivers can't get open in man coverage. When each receiver can be covered by a single back allowing the linebackers to come after the quarterback there's...
My favorite breakfast is two poached eggs on a sausage patty on a piece of toast. If you put hollandaise on top of it that makes it even better, but the egg yolks are really enough of a sauce to make it all delicious.
Also, sausage is better than ham/canadian bacon on eggs benedict. I used...
Yeah I didn't mean he was a stretch the field speed guy. By "down the field" I just meant on the far side of the line of scrimmage from the quarterback. Possibly even on the far side of the first down marker.
So it turns out with Vernon Davis out there is absolutely no one except for Boldin that is capable of getting open down the field. Take away Boldin and you take away the 49ers whole passing game. Quite depressing considering how long it's going to be before Manningham and Crabtree are back...
I think that Marie is going to marry Walt Jr. and shave his head and force him to have sex with her while saying "Dammit Marie" over and over.
Because Marie is crazy.
I have learned that you really need to call DirecTV once a year and threaten to leave if they don't give you some discounts. I have gotten NFL Sunday Ticket free 2 of the last 3 years and they always lower the prices for a few months. I've been told that they are allowed to give $250 in...
Google Alton Brown's method for poaching eggs. It is completely foolproof. I do this like 3 times a week and here's how I do it, which is basically how Alton does it.
Put water along with a splash (.5-1 tsp) of white vinegar and a big pinch of salt in a non-stick frying pan with a lid and...
They should add in that there are income taxes paid on all profits the team makes as well as on their employees and also revenues from sales tax and job creation for surrounding businesses (restaurants, bars, memorabilia shops, etc. not to mention temporary construction worker jobs). I don't...
Yeah and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 is just as likely to come up in powerball as any other numbers you could play but I bet nobody plays those because that seems impossible to get.
I did that simulation 4 times and switched every time and I got the car all 4 times. Then I did it once without switching and also got the car. Clearly either option yields 100% success so this whole thread was pointless.
Mine came as well about a week ago. It does work but since my internet sucks so bad streaming video is a pretty shitty experience just like it is on every other gadget in my house.
Also, I can't control it from a laptop on wifi, only from a computer that is plugged directly into the router...
