@Facebook asks me what I'm thinking. @Twitter asks me what I'm doing. @Foursquare asks me where I am. Conclusion: the Internet is my girlfriend.
reminds me of Google Desktop for PC
what would you do if you won $60k while still in high school?
what a mess
hard to believe that my iPad 1 is basically obsolete in Apple's eyes at this point. In the future, let’s hope Tim Cook adds "2-year+ lifetime" to their long term product strategy.
now they caved in. oh well... Twitter Caves and Hands Over Protester’s Tweets to Avoid Fines http://blogs.lawyers.com/2012/09/twitter-caves-and-hands-ove...
typical monthly data use is "overcounted by 5 to 7 percent"?! im scared to even think how much money AT&T has stolen from me over the years.
I'm pretty sure that military pilots have to go unpressurized to 25,000 feet in order to be qualified. however they don't have to stay there for very long. and certainly not as long as the duration of a commercial flight.
this is unfortunate, especially since Ben Lee, Twitter's legal counsel, took a stand supporting users earlier this week. http://blogs.lawyers.com/2012/09/twitter-users-rights-for-no...
i thought Craigslist would hold out longer than Reddit... guess not.

if you really want cheap, try making a Linux computer with a cardboard box, duct tape and Ubuntu Feisty like this guy http://www.methodshop.com/2007/07/cheapest-linux-box-ever.sh... it's slightly ghetto-fabulous, but it gets the job done.
in addition to perfecting their shake to get every drop of water all over my bathroom floor/walls, my dogs (@TurdsAndTreats) also have a dive bomb maneuver where they drop and roll on any carpet or piles of clothes.
new york beats silicon valley for one simple reason: If you're a programmer who just graduated college, would you rather live in suburban California and work at a sterile "office park" or would you rather live/work in Manhattan?
this is a bunch of BS. the founder of TPB were well within Swedish law and did nothing illegal. No copy-written content is hosted on TPB, just torrents.
the line between what Oracle considers open and closed get fuzzier all the time. makes being a developer a pain in the ass.
@anonova that's what i was thinking!!! i skimmed the code but couldnt tell if they included the infamous "kill screen" bug. i was never good enough to ever reach that level in the original arcade version, but my best friend's older brother was: Pac-Man’s Kill Screen – Level 256 [video] http://www.methodshop.com/2012/08/pacman-kill-screen.shtml
i really hope this happens within my lifetime.
