Agreed. I like tongue, but if it comes with the skin and the taste buds or whatever the fuck the bumps cows have all over tongues (which is how it comes when my Mom cooks it) I can just barely take it purely because of the appearance. If you get all the skin off, it's basically soft roast beef.

If I built an aquarium rack like that I would have to put a third support in the middle of each tank because even though I know intellectually that it's okay, my brain rejects the idea that a horizontal pane of glass held in place by silicone caulk is actually strong enough to hold up 150+ lbs...

I guess the rest of the Alex Smith trade is that the 49ers get a 3rd rounder next year which goes to a 2nd rounder if KC wins a certain number of games.

Yes, you're a hero. And if you ask a lot of artists and music producers, it kind of did ruin the music industry. Musicians pretty much only make money on their live shows now, which isn't an option for TV and movie producers.

I'm all for breaking up the monopolies and cutting out the middle men, but that has nothing to do with piracy. Piracy only benefits the pirates and hurts everyone else involved including people like me who pay for their content or don't watch it. Think about it this way, if everyone got their...

You don't HAVE to watch the show. There is no moral or physical imperative that you see Downton Abbey the day it comes out. You want it in a form that is not considered financially viable for the people who create the content, so you take it and rationalize.

I thought it was a stupid scene where they had Caesar dead to rights and then they heard the ram against the door and instead of cutting his throat and then high-tailing it like any reasonable person would have done, they just stand there and watch them beat the gate down and leave Caesar to do...

Consequences dictate the course of action and it doesn't matter what's right. It's only wrong if you get caught. It's just a fact of life that when taking something rather than paying for it is easier and has no consequences, a certain number of people are going to do it. They will find a...

I think the Hopper takes it one step further and automatically detects and removes the commercials, or at least makes a 1-click action to skip the commercial.

I guess we won't be seeing a Baltimore dynasty anytime soon.

The Verge did a great story on Google Glass this week. I used Google Glass: the future, but with monthly updates

^Definitely dig this shot. Here's one that I took a long time ago when I knew nothing about photography and had a super shitty camera. It's not the greatest exposure but I still kind of like it.

Finale format was total bullshit. The finale has always been the one challenge where they drop the reality show bullshit and let them just cook and this time they made it the most reality bullshit challenge of the season. Also, how do you go from staying up all night arguing over who won to...

Alex Smith is a great example of why drafting a QB #1 can fuck your team for years. The Chiefs aren't going to the Superbowl next year, probably not even the playoffs, and Alex will probably be fine as a QB for them and is more of a known quantity than anyone that they could have drafted in the...

This is pretty much true of all degrees I think. People think they're going to come out of college with a job skill, but all it really does is give you a taste for the world you're getting into and show your prospective employer that you are capable of finishing something difficult. You learn...

I had a 4 person team, two of which were a couple that lived together and they decided to break up in the middle of the senior project. Needless to say, they were useless for most of the project and me and the other guy had to do almost everything and even the other guy more or less failed at...

The main places where the P&S's fail is in low light or when taking pictures of things that are moving quickly. Also, for a lot of pictures you have to wait for good light no matter how fancy your camera is. One of the main skills in photography is learning to "see" light and then being...

Don't think that because you don't have a high end camera that you can't take high quality photos. ADSLRwill be able to take pictures better in difficult conditions and gives you more control, but even low end P&S cameras can take great pictures if the light/conditions are favorable.

I have been burned on refurb shit a couple times now. A lot of times it means it has an intermittent problem. I think half of that stuff is something someone returned because it was defective, they got it in, turned it on for 2 minutes, it worked fine, so they put it in a box and sell it as...

Fair enough, but it's something to consider when you start thinking long term. It's probably going to take some therapy to get her to the point of being marriage material and the swinging thing is probably the opposite of that.

Don't over think it. It's not really any different than any other situation. Just don't be a dick and take your cues from your coworkers on things like lunch etc.

She's probably into this because her dad either abandoned her or stuck his finger in her at a young age.

When someone says "I'm an anarchist" I hear "I'm either stupid or I haven't thought this through". In fact, the best response would be to beat the shit out of them with a lead pipe and then say "Since you're an anarchist, I know you're not going to call the cops about this, and of course you...

Samsung is also toying with their own operating system, although personally I can't really see that taking off at this stage of the game.

I watched Donnie Brasco again this weekend and it is a good movie, but all I could think was I wish that Johnny Depp was Ray Liotta, Bruno Kirby actually was Joe Pesci instead of a guy doing a Joe Pesci impression, and that I was watching Goodfellas instead of a well made Goodfellas ripoff...

But that fake Mexican chef lady rejected the steak 9 times!

I heard a podcast with Matt Atchity from Rotten Tomatoes and he thinks that the Academy is just jealous of Affleck because he's too good looking and has too hot of a wife so he's not supposed to get to be a hotshot director too. It is true that when you're handicapping the Oscars you're really...

I don't really see anything but fantasy or sci-fi ever winning one of these polls on this board. "Lonesome Dove" is one of my all time favorite books though, I highly recommend it. Not sure why it's in the "young adult" section though.

I take no precautions with my Galaxy Nexus and almost never have trouble getting through the day unless I do a whole bunch of downloading on 4G. I live in an area with no cell coverage and the thing is searching all day. I leave LTE, WiFi, and Bluetooth on all the time and today I probably...

If you didn't consider yourself an old man before, this post is where you became one.

Yeah, people comparing this show to Rome is a pretty big stretch. I have watched every episode of Spartacus and mostly enjoyed it, but it's just a video game compared to Rome.

Some seriously bad taste in movies being exposed here. David Duchovny? Has he even been in one good movie? I can't think of one. Jesus fucking Christ.

Don't know why that is, but the good news is 20 Mbit is plenty fast enough for just about anything you can do on the internet.

Kansas City - Where 49ers quarterbacks go to die.

My HTC Incredible had horrible battery life as well. I just carried a spare battery in my pocket and swapped it when it got low.

I used to be an electrical engineer but I don't know anything about DIY aquarium lights, LED or otherwise. I think the aquarium message boards are probably your best bet.

The EVO was one of the first LTE phones. The reason that Apple waited a year to put in LTE was so the chips could be refined and they wouldn't burn so much battery. That said, I do think that LTE iPhones have less battery life than previous models, which is not a surprise.

I'm just having a hard time giving a damn about any of the characters now. I was much more invested in earlier seasons.

It seems kind of neat. It's useless for me because I live in the middle of nowhere, but it has some interesting stuff when I'm in a city.
