Yup, same as WalMart, hehe. They're awful and evil and rahrahrah, but at 1am on Sunday when everywhere else is closed, they'll sell you a loaf of bread, electric drill, computer mo…

It's #2 on my front page (via /r/news).

People pay for Reddit Gold. I don't see why they wouldn't pay for an @reddit.com email address, too.

Wow, wish I had it that easy as a kid. Everybody I ever played with drew in the gallows to begin with, so you just had 6 misses (2x leg, 2x arm, body, head) before you lost.

Interesting, but as the article says, it's a young field. Far too young to draw any meaningful conclusions, but...certainly interesting.

(Comment so I can easily find this again.)

I control one endpoint (the 'server' / computer being connected to), and to some reasonable extent, can dictate how the other end is setup. To the extent that it matters to me, bot…

You could be right; I'm just asking for people's personal, specific preferences (e.g., exactly which VNC?). There's far too many different options out there to try them all, so I w…

I thought there was a YC company that did that sort of thing, but at any rate, anybody have any preferred services? VNC might also be acceptable (I've used TightVNC elsewhere befor…

Exactly. The way I see it, you can think of a piece of code sort of like chain links. GPL code looks like this: http://ace.imageg.net/graphics/product_images/pACE2-988564dt... AND …

>2 Receive real time updates of cool links shared by people you like How do you handle a link that gets sent to the same person by two people? What about a link that you yourself s…

>This industry is loaded with cash, they're transitioning from traditional analog video to IP-centric solutions and have no expertise. I can confirm on this one. It's amazing how m…

3% in games would be worth a metric buttload of money, where the difference in 'playable on N Ghz CPU' and 'playable on N - 0.2 Ghz CPU' could double your potential buyers.

Varies by how long I've been awake. 5 - 6 hours on weeknights. 8 - 9 on weekends (but the entire 'day' - from time I woke up on Friday to time I wake up on Saturday, for instance -…

>Aaaaand wtf is with the creepy pics of young girls looking into the camera all over the site? That was my initial reaction, too. Unless there's a specific reason you're trying to …

How do they make money, I wonder?

Handy, thanks.

Edit: Ontopic: "So while Arc is not the perfect Lisp, it seems to be better for at least some kinds of programming than either of the leading alternatives." What kinds did you have…

I love the MS 'Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000'. It feels a bit goofy at first, but it's really nice once you get used to it (There's this riser thing that goes on the front, so it…

Pretty standard etiquette for just about any irc room with a specific topic and a fairly steady, longstanding group of regulars, really. Still probably justified in being posted th…

I dunno. I don't think this guy has seen enough xkcd comics. Most easily meet the 'bizarre' requirement. Quite a few, especially the ones with a 'love' theme are cruel and / or nau…

Handy app. Much more convenient than java clients. '/list' is pretty ugly, tho. :) Didn't test much beyond that and joining a chan to chat for a sec.

Handy. 'Recent' is used in a pretty loose way, though. Looks like anything in the last month is counted.

There's also the point that it's unlikely to be relevant beyond the next year or so.

Pretty funny. I don't think anything will ever top the simple 'printer on fire', though.
