  1. @BassmanJB2 I thought about greeting one, but based on some of the longer term use reviews, I think I'm going to hold out for the next gen.
  2. smarterware.org/10050/please-d… This is a good primer on solving problems or improving at anything IMO.
  3. @gonzobent I only use firefox now for some of their plugins (i.e. foxyproxy). Otherwise I rock chrome on every device I have and LOVE it.
  4. @wojonet @jessegavin I've actually been contemplating just installing a hypervisor on my dev machines and rocking my working OS as a guest.
  5. This is awesomesauce and sooo true. Tesla = teh AWESOME, Edison = douchebag hack thief.
  6. I just saw that the first 802.11ac router is available today. Figured it was time to finally upgrade to 802.11n from my trusty WRT54GL.
  7. Sliders is on netflix... awesome!
  8. Lauren is being discharged as we speak! Should be home in an hour or so!
  9. Lauren is out of surgery (in recovery room). Surgeon said everything went really well, and no visible signs of spreading to anything.
  10. Lauren just went back for pre-op prep. Surgery scheduled to start at 1 if you are a person who it's interested in praying.
  11. I spent my birthday evening fighting human trafficking with my wife & kid. What did you do with your Sunday? :)
  12. @jessegavin Seriously! That is awesome - if it is anything like the github for Mac, that would be totally rad!
  13. If you weren't aware, and care about such things, the improvements in the new mythTV 0.25 are kinda awesome. Http live streaming FTW!
  14. Git needs a windows GUI client that doesn't blow and integrates w/ explorer.
