    I had an HTC Incredible that had a little touch nipple thing at the bottom-middle of the screen. It functioned like a Thinkpad nub and was pressable for a click. So far that is the…

    Is this why most password entry forms in Android do not allow use of the Swype-type keyboard? I always thought that was strange. Now it makes more sense....backdooring

    I've lived in houses before, stuff tends to break over time....keep that in mind. As long as more than $3600 worth of stuff doesn't break within 5 years you are good. Probably depe…

    I agree with dungle6, whose comment is now dead. I say screw them and don't pay. Ignore collections for a few years and don't be a wuss about your credit score. Problem solved.

    It seems very telling to me that the Standard Windows Desktop is generally considered a wasteland of discarded program and file icons, basically where you throw your digital trash.…

    That sounds ridiculous to me. Do you use a paper towel so that you don't have to touch the door handle on your way out of the bathroom, too?

    I'm guessing that water in San Diego is the absolute stalest you can get in the US. The water San Diego receives is either piped over the mountains from Arizona or comes from way u…

    If people were at home when the quake struck it doesn't seem unlikely to me that only 1 in 100 would be in the immediate vicinity of their phone. (Maybe 1 in 100 is a strech, but 1…

    Fingerprinting turned out to be one of the biggest crime-fighting tools of the 20th century. Does that debaffle it a bit?

    Real estate prices are not solely a function of supply and demand. If the value of your money goes down, so too will the price of your house.

    This reminds me of being forced to do math by hand in school, instead of using a calculator. Mostly this just left me with contempt for the teachers.

    I have foobar2000 setup to track my plays for each song. It has an adjustable slider that I have set for 35%. Once 35% of the song has been played it increments the play count. It …
