You are a 17 year old male. Buying your first car. You can pick from a: 1992 BMW 525i - Silver, Moon roof, A/C and other stuff. and: 1999 Ford Explorer Sport - 4x4, A/C, roof rack, power options, and other stuff. Both cost the same. Both are in about the same shape (as far as rust, dings, etc for 1...

What about that Brian dude (I think that was his name) that was a huge football star in college, then flopped in the NFL and did a couple movies? He should be in it too.

I cut it off the cob. Hate eating it directly off.

When I did, it was side to side.

I never had a complaint with Vonage. Great features and call quality. Only issue we had was when we switched to Comcast as part of a bundle. Vonage gave us a REALLY hard time about releasing our number. One that we moved to them many years ago. They eventually released it. But, they lost our paper ...

Good thing you don't have those annoying CDs, eh? Honestly, I lose my CDs all the time too having to tear apart shelves looking for them. I do take solice in knowing the servers will eventually be up and I'll have my games. Other CDs (Diablo II) never show up. So, I don't miss the CDs, I'm pissed t...

Steam fucking sucks right now. Was getting a Steam error every time my PC booted. So, I uninstalled Steam and reinstalled. All of my Steam games, with saves, were uninstalled as well. No questions during uninstall. No warnings. It just did it. All of my games CS, TF2, etc are still showing as insta...

I think that special is for new customers. Even on that page is says that Eve subscribers never have to pay for updates. Free EVE Online expansions - You will never be charged for an EVE expansion - as the EVE universe grows, so do the benefits of your subscription. I could be wrong though. That's ...

Points 4, 7 and 8 are valid with me, but not deal breakers. I don't travel abroad, I don't have 10k contacts or emails. I don't use multiple carriers, etc. I do wish it used a standard USB cable, had a removable battery and a memory card slot. I'm surprised they didn't bash it for it's lack of blue...

Is this just a data option for browsing on your phone, or a full email/data plan?

I switched over to IMAP from pop3 and have my own IMAP server running. Now, my laptop, desktop and phone all have the same messages/folders/etc. I move a messag...

My wife's XPS was a trooper. Ran well and hard for about 3 years. Recently ebay'd it. Only issues it had were that the fancy/fun lights that you could change to suit your mood started going bad. Other issue was the charger's cord frayed inside the jacket and I had to split it open and repair it. Ch...

Connected with limited access ussually means it's either not getting an IP address, or the router doesn't have a connection to the Internet. What's the laptop's IP address? It should be something like 192.168.1.xxx. Can other PCs get to the Internet? If the laptop isn't getting an address, double c...

Day 3: So far, I've used 'having my email on my phone' a handful of times. I was glad it was there. I could get used to it being there. LOVE the voicemail. I think they call it "Visual Voicemail". When I hit the voicemail icon, it brings up all of my messages email style. I can then selec...
