  1. Wow. I lost... but with the comedy option: a giant SUV because, despite the "reservation" I made, they're out of normal-people cars.
  2. About to find out the results of my rental-car "premium sedan" gamble. A win would be a Maxima. A loss would be an Avalon or Chrysler.
  3. This is the second time in 24 hours that I've had all three Macs in our apartment simultaneously burning discs.
  4. @codinghorror Looks like they ported a Saturn game. Badly.
  5. I don't believe anything until we get some sort of official confirmation, but Instapaper Pro would be damn nice on a 7-inch screen.
  6. If your coffee menu contains names of nuts instead of poor island nations, I set my expectations low. http://tumblr.com/xcg4ww780
  7. I read the store's name in my head as "H amp; M".
  8. @samvermette Yes, and those were the stock batteries. Lasted 45 days of heavy use on my work computer. Not bad. Replaced with IKEA AAs.
  9. I'm riding this out. http://yfrog.com/auyplp
  10. And I wouldn't call its ISO 800 usable, even for a simple blog photo.
  11. One big S90 flaw: Auto ISO is FAR too aggressive about jumping up to keep the shutter speed very fast. Daylight at f/5: ISO 800.
  12. @danielpunkass That's why I initially got Prime 4 years ago: my last-minute shopping's 2-day shipping was going to cost more than $80.
  13. I love Amazon Prime. Yes, please send that 32-pound APC UPS overnight for $4 on December 23 to Brooklyn in the snow.
  14. "Here's this great new consolidated control panel! It's the way forward! Except we removed critical functionality and reliability."
  15. @ThePlanet Why did you remove the Total Control panel, and most of its capabilities (remote console, remote reset/power-cycle) from Orbit 2?
  16. @ThePlanet's new Orbit 2 panel continues to fail or be clunky on common operations. Like remote management, rebooting, and ticket creation.
  17. @nevenmrgan The combination of placebo and fanboy effects are great at curing or mitigating minor ailments. Arguably, then, it does "work".
  18. @graiz Great app. Thanks.
  19. @atebits Getting *engaged* in Antarctica? That's even better than my email-delay justifications than I originally thought. (Congrats!)
  20. @ashponders We don't own yet, but we're using online calculators to estimate what we can afford.
