  1. @iA I redesigned Useit for a project, and his share buttons weigh 30x more than the rest of the page combined.
  2. So, I got this humble bundle, and… protip, don't play Amnesia at this time of night. Ever.
  3. Dear @itunes: When I add album art to a song, why can't you just add it to all the songs in the album for me?
  4. @sdw I was hoping it’d be a missing arm so it could be “Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Lassos”.
  5. @lastfm I love last.fm discover, but… no way to queue music? Makes for a disconnected experience.
  6. last.fm discover is beautiful and incredible: cl.ly/Gv4Q last.fm/discover
  7. @danielpunkass Could be a result of the number of people you follow. When it’s only a few, there are more obvious good recs.
  8. @youarebananas only because you assume independent assortment. Nobody is amazed by seeing an ugly couple.
  9. @marcoarment I just want to thank you for making that window roughly iPhone shaped.
  10. Yes, of course what I mean when I check "remember my password" I mean "don't remember my password at all."
  11. @QuintessencePHL cbeiser@gfsnet.org
  12. @issieivins Then I thought about how much work it would be. It would be a great project if not for how unpleasant farming in January is.
  13. @issieivins I actually have enough space in my yard that I could grow a massive number of soybeans. I considered it for about five minutes.
