Ok, tit for tat here. If either of you two pitch me a song, I'll go listen to it, in the name of fairness. Read more

no but it DOES make you SOUND like you're TYPING while on a CAROUSEL or something. Read more

I thought THE same THING until I realized it HAS blender BLADES. I thought it WAS just for STIRRING in WHICH case, like, what THE fuck Read more

Same. My computer is the only thing I have to occasionally step away from. I think it's in part because I'm at it so much, and I do way more important things with my computer than I do with any other gadget/appliance. Read more

See well know you've opened Pandora's Box because I pretty much HAVE to ask which one of those brings the most cumulative pain. Read more

I do too, in theory. Until I try to tweak something and BREAK EVERYTHING. Most of my computer problems can be attributed in part to user error, but I still blame the computer. Read more

More than anything that just always stuck me as something Apple would never do. It's almost like an admission of guilt, you know? "We added this laser keyboard because the way you've been typing on our devices for years isn't good enough." Read more

Of course. It's just a cost-benefit thing. I'm sure there are some people out there who are just afraid of Metro because it's different despite the fact that a lot of the other stuff in Windows 8 could really help them out. In that case, I feel like they "shouldn't" be. On the other hand, if a company is afraid of… Read more

No man, I'm with you. I just meant the best solution for users who want to avoid Metro at any and all costs because they are dead set against it, whether or not they should be. Read more

That's the best solution for existing users, sure. But when you need a new computer, you can bet it'll be coming with Windows 8 on it. Read more

I really hope this happens soon. I had to give up Spotify when I moved to Linux because the unsupported app crashes CONSTANTLY. I'd jump at the chance to go back. Read more

I think it's actually to signify a page turning, but that's a handy bonus feature. Read more

Who's to say what's unique or interesting though? And, couldn't one theoretically make a meta/ironic-statement about what photography by taking a picture that ISN'T unique or interesting? That way there's still initiated/effort involved. Read more

That's something along the lines of what I subscribe to. There's not a lot to be gained in refusing the call things art, I don't think. It just tends to be a matter of whether or not you can personally divorce yourself from the idea that art has to require any kind of skill. Read more

"ART is meant to be a One of a Kind, Non-Reproducible Object of Beauty" that sort of seems to fly in the face of the idea that only Traditional Arts are Art, doesn't it? Let's say these broken Kindle screens generate their weird images based on a random variable. That makes them One of a Kind, no? And therefore Art if… Read more

But isn't photography art? Read more

There's also the related question: What if you buy this book and then rip it in half? Is that art?! WHAT IS ART?!?! Read more

How I can say that: Xbox exclusive games. Ain't no Kindle exclusive books, so far as I know. Read more

Milwaukee's Best. It has best right in the name!!!!!!!!!!! Read more
