Listen to the commentary as you watch it. Remember the opening scene with Shaun in the bar talking to his GF? Then they mention Ed and he's standing to the side playing a game? Later, after they go to the Winchester and Shaun turns the power back on, Ed borrows a quid from Liz and starts playing...

Actually, he later also threatened to drown the guy. The media hasn't bothered with that part though as it doesn't make for as sensational headlines.

Why did they look into people's emails and scan their networks when doing Google street view? Simply because they can. Why would they want to know the phone number of a device? You're not very devious, are you? The devices are GPS enabled (even if you turn the GPS off, it ain't off) like all...

How do they end up with any of their info? They supply the browser which has permission to read phone state. They provide the OS which has permission to read phone state and they're linked to it through "firmware updates" which runs 24/7. Am I paranoid? Probably so but when stuff comes to...

In the DVD release of Shaun of the Dead, Simon Pegg said that Nick Frost (who confirmed it) made about $75-$120 a day on the type of game Ed plays in The Winchester during the opening scene and later during the barricade scene. This was prior to his success as an actor of course.

Here, as in GA not the US, waste disposal is largely privatized. Some states have community trash services paid for via property taxes, some have state run land fills and trash services provided by private companies that are paid for out of HOA dues or the home owner's pockets.

There is no such thing as an expert. X is an unknown factor and a spurt is a shot in the dark.

I don't know. I would think that as much as Google likes to data mine that they know the phone number of every android based phone out there. They might not know what Gmail/Google account it belongs to but I'm sure they know it.

The first time I read the Google Fiber headline my first thought was "Not another laxative!" Lucky KC people.

Unfortunately it's not as simple here as it is in other places. Here you either pay your trash company to haul off your recyclables or drive 20 or 30 miles to a recycling center. Either way, you pay for it. In gas or for them to get it from you. In California they had just started curbside...

The reason I said that is because the majority of people don't recycle. Not paper, cardboard and plastics at least. Metals get recycled because there's money in it. The other stuff, from my experience, it costs money to recycle it. I'm already paying for trash service and they expect me to pay...

Yeah, screw it, who needs trees?

If you have a tablet, I understand. If you have a phone... well, don't you think they've already got it? Yeah, they do.

The stuff that needs a veritable chainsaw to open is stupid beyond belief. That's followed closely by stuff that comes in 3lbs of cardboard folded in a manner that would make an origami master cry in frustration. Put it in a simple box with bubble wrap and some foam. If theft is an issue, seal...

Can you send me the pattern for your tinfoil hat? From the second article you linked in your first quoted post: Everyone said that Mozilla was FUBAR when Chrome came out. Google was their number one supporter in exchange for default search provider placement and after Google developing...

With all the free-ware on Android, why on earth would you pirate something? I just don't get it. If I want something (aside from a specific title) I can find a free version of it on Play. From guitar tuners to GPS driven speedometers to music players, to pretty much any game genre. All free, all...

Um, no. A frowning mouth on an egg just isn't the same.

Ever since the Sys Mech 6 incident I've been too paranoid to try any of that stuff again. Once bitten twice shy.

I wasn't talking about for desktop use, for a NAS box. I've met people that don't do RAID for various reasons such as cost or complexity which is why I asked. For a desktop system I'd use a WD blue drive. Better performance than the green drives and better cost than the black drives. Win/win.

For your additional money over the green drives you're basically picking up 1yr more warranty and an improved MTBF and losing some circuitry. True, the circuitry lost isn't needed if you do RAID. If not, is it going to be a detriment to not have on board error correction?
