I've never met one.

How delightful. I just found the most scrumptious recipe for turkey cranberry flambé that I simply never would have found on google.

I don't have any demographic information to share. But I personally attempt to rate my files. It gives a nice way to categorize by quality. That way I can have abjectly terrible mu…

So you can set up apache to host movies on a home network, then stream them with VLC? That sounds like a fantastic solution. Is there a solution for playing music this way on somet…

What can they do to stop you if your phone is capable of installing a recovery?

Wow... I had only ever used Craig's List for buying and selling goods. I had no idea there were people raping and murdering each other on there. You'd think that the admins would t…
