I noticed the other day they have some web interface for adding music from your computer. I don't know if it handles that stuff any better or worse, but at least it appears you don't have to run Music Manager on your computer. Of course you would need to manually upload any music as you got it...

What I like about Google Music is you can point it to where you store your MP3s on your computer and then you have access to all of it for streaming on your phone. In addition to that, if you create a playlist, you can then tell it to store those songs from that playlist locally on the phone so...

I've always used Google Play Music and I've been able to control it from the car's radio interface.

Next time buy a phone without all the crapware on it, they do exist.

Where would these lanes be? Likely right next to the lanes for the Trucks. So they're essentially going to be on the same road. Which is more likely to be seen and survive a crash by an 18 wheeler. A 70 pound velomobile (guessing on the weight) or a car? Even a sideswipe when the trucker is...

That sounds wonderful, except I don't want to be riding in one of those velomobiles on the same road as an 18 wheeler. No thank you. Also, if my whole family needs to go somewhere together, are we supposed to have our own? The 2 year old supposed to get strapped on top? It also still won't get...

Maybe something like this? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MNXAFQ6?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00 I have one and it is pretty nice. It requires putting the thin metal plate on your phone or between your phone and a case though. I don't really notice mine inside the case.

The issue with the Chryslers is that they had a cellular connection built in with no firewall as I understand it. I would say if your car doesn't have a cellular connection or any other wireless connection a hacker would probably need physical access.

Sedrosken, I have a Civ 5 gift on steam that's yours if you want it. Just PM me your email address and I'll send it. I don't remember how I got it, but I've had it forever and everyone I know already has Civ 5. Well, everyone except you apparently. ;)

Try using a different HDMI cable, I had the same problem before and swapping the cable somehow fixed it.

Doesn't Google Maps incorporate that stuff from Waze now, or is there something additional Waze has that Maps doesn't?

It's not any more hacked than any other version of android except perhaps on the Nexus. It is a decent value for a phone, but I would probably wait to see what the OnePlus Two specs and price are before I bought a One.

http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2014/07/panicking-over-androids-factory-reset-is-mostly-unwarranted/ Encrypt it then wipe it.

Encrypt it first, then factory reset seems to be the solution to that particular problem. I tend to keep my phones for too long for them to be worth anything after. They usually end up in a drawer after.

I found an app, along the lines of glympse, but more for runners, hikers or cyclists. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roadid.ecrumb.app&hl=en You set the time you expect to be out, an emergency contact, and go. They can check your location as you go, and if you stop moving for...

Then AT&T shouldn't have agreed to do it. Of course, I don't believe for a second they ever intended to, at least not after they ran the numbers of what it would cost.

You should do it, if only for your wife's piece of mind, if not your own.

http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/user_summary.php?s=&u=58670 It looks like his last contribution was last August if I'm reading this right.

That's terrible news, but thanks for finding that. I had been wondering as well.

Just don't tax necessities then. Certain foods, milk etc. If they spend all their money on cars, tv's, blue rays or whatever, that is on them. Maybe the country would stop having such a bad case of keeping up with the Joneses. Who am I kidding, that probably still won't happen.

The T series don't seem to be affected. http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/product_security/superfish You can apparently test for the vulnerability here: https://filippo.io/Badfish/

I haven't bought a monitor in years, but I saw this a few days ago and thought it might be of interest to you. http://lifehacker.com/five-best-budget-computer-monitors-1685766022/1686634995/+alanhenry

It sounds like she's interested in knowing when she has notifications when her phone is out of earshot. It's why I bought my pebble. Even when I had my phone nearby I often didn't hear it ring or chime. I've used the Pebble on both iOS and Android and the experience is a little different but it...

Why not one of the nicer Chromebooks? It would be simple for you to support, still fit well within your budget and work perfectly fine for the web and email.

I didn't buy a physical copy, so I can't say about the updates. I only had to sign on to Origin, I'm not sure what the other service could be unless Nitsirk is using Steam as well for it. I'd have to agree about the control scheme, it does appear to be designed for gamepads, but I don't think...

and rainbows, don't forget rainbows.

It wouldn't bother me, copy all you want, improve on it. The part that bothers me is when they act like Apple invented it, or it wasn't a useful feature until Apple included it, especially "journalists". http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/16/jobs-no-ones-going-to-buy-a-big-phone/ I'm especially...

I know it's far from ideal, but maybe use Tasker to stop it somehow?

If you're talking about FIOS, when I had it, as long as the computer and router had power, I had internet during a power outage. I doubt it's changed since their phone service is VOIP.

I know I'm late to the party here, but myself and my neighbors have all had really good experiences with Airtron. They seem to also be in Arizona, so perhaps you could look into their reputation there.

Perhaps something like Dave's solution combined with a motions sensor to activated the speaker in that particular room on a timer. Have the motion sensor trigger a particular channel on the receiver. Not sure how you'd run the thing, my first thought is to use z-wave and ir-blaster with a...

What Chewy mentions is the largest reason I use adblock. I use it to block annoying ads as a secondary reason.

Isn't Nitsirk a friend of his? Perhaps someone could reach out to her?

Nicely done, not many things feel quite as good as fixing or building something yourself that you've never done before.

I posted in the other thread about Tasker It's extremely useful for automatic tasks on an Android phone. Mubs, I recommend you for sure look into it. You can automate a lot of, if not all of that stuff you're doing manually.

You guys might be interested in https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.taskerm It's uses are virtually unlimited. If you want your phone to just have a data connection once an hour to poll for messages you can program Tasker to turn it on once an hour, or once a day...

You must be a blast at parties.

Oh dear, it must have broken while he was posting.

I would remove the battery if possible and stop trying to turn it on until you get it completely dry. I wouldn't try and charge it until then either.

When I was refereeing a few years ago I was able to use that site fine with firefox. I'm glad you found another alternative that works for you, it is convenient to be able to check it on the go.

Is it possible this guy is a reseller for some crappy counterfeits?

I would use some type of adhesive as well. It's the cheapest fix I can think of anyway.

Have you looked into Google Keep at all? Perhaps that will suffice?

I would also suggest considering it merely for the practical experience.

I'm sorry to hear this news. My only advice is to stay strong for her, she'll need to lean on you, but don't be afraid to lean on a friend of your own. She needs your strength, and you'll need all the strength you can get to support her. Best wishes

That is a nice way to backup your apps and sdcard to your computer but I don't believe that backups any of the settings which is what I thought Howell was after.

It's not really loading an alternative Firmware. It's like adding a config file to the boot process. The OS is the same, it's just opening up some options before you boot into Android. I'm not aware of any alternatives to get a full backup, but I could certainly be wrong.

Your best bet for a complete backup is a nandroid backup. http://www.androidrootz.com/2013/05/how-to-do-nandroid-backup-on-galaxy-s4.html You're going to need to have some kind of recovery on your phone as it states in that article but that's not usually difficult to get on.

I don't see any way you need to feel bad about your contributions to folding at home. Anything that benefits you, will likely benefit their cause in the long run anyway.
