    That's exactly the way I felt with "stuff", little things I collect saying to myself, "I'll need this some day". You know, a few old semi-functioning laptops, cable ends that I'm g…

    That's what my original thought was, but it didn't contribute anything to the discussion and wasn't really funny, or witty Given HNs population I had hoped you did author these too…

    What about FRS/GMRS or even 2m HTs (ham radio)? Last time I checked they weren't banned. Oh, but you do need permission from the pilot to use them...

    No bittorrent. This thing pretty much just plays video from netflix or amazon. It didn't look too hackable at first inspection, but it didn't appear to be locked down, just undocum…

    I bought the Roku a few months back. I don't have cable and wanted to watch a few shows here and there.It's pretty simple to use, but to me it doesn't feel like a parent proof devi…

    Just because you used it as an example here are a few quick resources to help understand filesystem layouts a bit better. A real quick overview: * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File…

    That's great news. The chapters before that were great. I'm ignorant of anything above HS math and figured I would be lost in the rest of the book if I was having trouble in the fi…

    Kurt Vonnegut has some good stuff. Slaughterhouse Five, Cats Cradle and I really liked A Man Without a Country. The Discworld series (Terry Prachett) is good if you liked HHG
