These seem decent, a little heavy on the bass for my taste but it isn't obnoxious. My complyfoams were able to be forced on them just fine even though they were the wrong size, I didn't like the flappy rubber earpieces they came with. http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-earbuds-under-30/...

Too bad, I like their boards. Odd mix of server and consumer things.

Oh hey, theres the registration email I was looking for. I guess they figured they needed to get that out after I started downloading and installing things. First discovery in testing, windows backup won't work with a network drive that isn't formatted in NTFS. No idea what file system a...

Have him call google support. Oh wait google support is only for their customers (advertisers) right?

Damn, some Sure SE215s seem like a good prospect now. I still don't have my triplefis back.

Not something to be taken off the table as a possibility. PEBCAK.

Anyone use salesforce here? It infuriates me that their rich text entry boxes are not able to be resized on any browser. Makes editing in the web page damn near impossible.

I already went through and collected the keys for stuff I want but haven't tried collecting any second keys. I do fully intend to pick them up sometime before it expires. Comcast will be hating me this month.

I learned the other day that there is a non crazy corporate version of firefox that will stay around for a while and receive updates that don't break addons. That's likely what we will have to do at work for trellis.

That's the thing, I have never once caught fastmail marking something as a false positive and if it does I think it just goes into the junk mail folder and it isn't there either. At any rate it is up and working now, thanks. Lots of toys now.

It works both way for free in my experience. There is the regular way specifically called out in the iPhone setup as gmail or you could ignore that and set it up as exchange which is far superior as you get push which is what I am doing. I have google calendar sync installed on my work computer...

Support replied that I am already activated and sent me the info I needed to get in. I never got anything from them.

Time to pay someone behind the counter off to get what you want.

I do google calendar sync for free, is that what you are referring to? I don't know anything about the google apps thing, don't use them.

I don't get harleys either. I think they look nice but I don't feel the want to own one. I still miss my Concours, that did 35-50 depending on the rider which I thought was good considering it was a 1000cc with four big carbs and hard luggage with full fairing. One thing you might not...

One of the lesser things announced by apple underneath all the ipad stuff was about everything labeled 720p HD in the itunes store also has a 1080p version you can redownload now for no cost assuming you already purchased the 720p version. Both 720p and 1080p will be available for almost all...

It's a shower faucet. Over the past seven years of living here I must have put five valve cartridges in that thing, just about the worst design I have ever seen. To top it off the local place that was selling them ran out two years ago and I had to order online to get them. After I put one in...

My weekend wasn't quite that good. http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh157/scottjalbert/items/Faucet1.png http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh157/scottjalbert/items/faucet2.png http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh157/scottjalbert/items/faucet3.png

You mean the rich text editing buttons?

Samsung promises Galaxy S II ICS upgrade for March 10th, then denies it (updated). http://www.theverge.com/2012/3/8/2855598/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-ice-cream-sandwich-release-date-official http://skp.samsungcsportal.com/integrated/popup/FaqDetailPopup.jsp?seq=422548&cdsite=ph Smooth rollout.

That must be the problem, I got the box through amazon. I saw one comment on there about the long activation time but I figured that was just one exception. Microsoft lists the professional cost at $249.00 Renewal so it seems only around 10% savings which seems to be true across the board for...

Was that three days or ten? Are you ordering straight from microsoft?

OK so having not received anything from them yet I google around and find that it is apparently normal for them to take over a week or two to activate a technet subscription and apparently the activation system has been this bad for years? Problem 1; you don't get any confirmation in the email...

230% efficient LED. Greater than unity power consumption. http://dvice.com/archives/2012/03/230-efficient-l.php http://www.physorg.com/news/2012-03-efficiency.html

The sandboxing behavior is dumb, I agree. There are a lot of combination apps to work around it though. Goodreader for example. I'm liking the attitude at verge more as we go along. Both in article and comments. In a triumph of marketing, AT&T upgrades Apple's iPhone to '4G'...

Meh, whats one missing data partition among friends?

? Are you referring to the ability to bill a developer for data usage instead of the user now being offered? I'm on the fence about that one, mostly I feel like it's ok as they are being agnostic about who pays the bill and opening up options etc. I think OTA phone updates have been billed...

Bad things about iOS 5.1 -Says 4G - this is double stupid for me because I am using a wap.cingular APN (prepaid) which doesn't get HSPA+, proves it is just a marketing label. -Iconsettings is broken - obviously apple doesn't want you to get to your settings quickly and easily. This actually...

The jailbreak is almost certainly gone with 5.1 and I don't know if there ever was a way to get android on any of them, suspect not. With the new iPad and the new 1080p apple TV I'm wondering if the iTunes content just "magically" switches to 1080p. Rumors from early last year said apple was...

Not still impressed. I really miss having decent earphones.

Dual core A5X CPU with quad graphics cores. Tegra 3 (not used in the iPad obviously) has a 12 core GPU. The iPad 2 still sold at $399/529 16gb optional 3G still. iPhoto with publish to the internet looks interesting.

I see what you mean, I had to go in and turn on the quick scroll to replicate it. Honestly though ever sense they fixed safari features in iOS5 I stopped using atomic.

Big battery http://allthingsd.com/20120306/a-droid-phone-with-a-battery-that-outlasts-most-talkers/

Similar thoughts as I but he had a lot more to say about it. I think microsoft can improve on this quite a bit though. http://speirs.org/blog/2012/3/6/we-need-to-talk-about-android.html

I guess some apple devs aren't happy about some things either. http://fixradarorgtfo.com/

Helpful of verizon. This is like an anti advertisement. http://news.verizonwireless.com/news/2012/03/bl2012-03-06.html

At the forum level the arrows on the right don't do anything but if you are in a forum looking at threads the arrow on the right of each thread bring you to the new posts for that thread. Works for me anyway. The layout works and I wouldn't want to scrunch the text up too much, most thread...

The aim of that article was developer support difficulties in having to develop software for a broad range of versions and thus not being able to use new features in the os, or worse having to detect which os they are on so they can select which feature to use. On the forum here we have someone...

Do you not rely on this computer for work or personal? If it is a second or third machine in the home/office I can see putting up with it being down but if this machine had any importance I would simply move my future upgrade plans ahead whatever they might be. As a matter or "principle" how...

Why do developers prefer iOS over Android? Try 75% adoption of iOS 5 while ICS is stuck at 1% http://thenextweb.com/apple/2012/03/06/why-do-developers-prefer-ios-over-android-try-75-adoption-of-ios-5-while-ics-is-stuck-at-1/ I wonder what it would look like if they stuck win phone 7 on there...

I would love to see the oversold numbers for cell carriers. I bet it is way over the amount that home internet is oversold by and they have to deal with people moving around too.

Bring back the start menu. http://www.theverge.com/2012/3/6/2848443/windows-8-start-button-start-menu-how-to?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

I have a retail box of vista upgrade here I'm not using any more. Has both x86 and x64 hologram disks.

All they really wanted was a new way to bill for the same usage and they have it now. I'm sure there are parallels to enron and the power shortages in CA. Do they still have rolling scheduled blackouts there? The only talks I see in the regulation direction are the talks about cell jammers and...

Good, thanks.

It is missing windows media player to comply with an EU antitrust issue. Wiki says also less media center. I am pretty sure media player is a free download and I bet for those versions so is media center as their absence is only to please the court ruling. Actually I'm not sure about the...

Meh, looks like they did but still worth it anyway. I forgot about the N versions that are available as a separate key due to the whole EU thing so that brings it back up to four copies of ultimate. Amazon for $176. Apparently activation takes a week or so according to the comments due to buying...

Been doing a little research and currently people are suggesting that you only get two keys per product and they are good for the 10 activations or so. Have they really reduced technet standard to two keys? Also anyone have promo / discount codes?

Hmm today I got another amex email "Account Alert: Your Spend Tracking". Looking in the account I see a limit and tracking slider and for some reason the limit was below the tracking point I set. I don't know if I did that at some point or what but I fixed the two so hopefully things will be a...
