Western Digital's WDTV Live can play any file you throw at it. http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=330 It supports many online services as well, but unfortunately no Prime Instant Video. I have ye

I'm on the verge of doing the exact same thing. On that plan are you able to use any of that data for tethering or mobile hotspot? A customer service rep said you can use all of your "up to 5GB" 4G data for tethering if you w

I see very highly rated negative reviews all the time. They even make a point to show you helpful critical reviews.

Tangent: How on earth do product blogs not have a link to their product page? Nowhere is there a link to feedly.com in their header or sidebar, I have to manually edit the URL. Ridiculous.

That 25/month for one year on the free plan is only for 5Mb down, 1Mb up... not Gb speeds.

Well, that depends on your ISP and where you live. I pay $160/month for a higher-tier internet (Blast) and basic cable from Comcast.

Even if Apple was the first company ever to have a disappearing scroll-bar on a mobile device, I'm amazed something like that can be patented. To me it seems like a common sense evolution when shrinking things down to mobile proportions. "Y

I think he was referencing the Office Space comparison and Smykowski defending his job by saying he was good with customers.

I started using Everything ( http://www.voidtools.com/ ) to help mitigate XP's slow searching and still use it today, even with Win7's much improved search functionality. Everything Search only indexes file names, so you can't search via da

It was bad form to just post a link without any background... There is a well-known usability bug in Win7 explorer that the engineers are aware of but don't seem to care about. Bug report: http://connect.microsoft.com/WindowsServerFeedback

Thanks for that... Hadn't noticed HN automatically truncates long URLs.

I agree with the OP that all his examples were a poor use of no-reply addresses. My point is that they do serve a purpose sometimes - my example being notifications, reminders, and other inherently one-way messages. If it is a message I am

True, if it is a relatively small support operation. This would be harder to do with larger companies that had separate addresses for billing questions, service problems, troubleshooting, etc. If every outbound message had a singular live r

I consider the no-reply address a courtesy to me to know that I won't end up writing a reply to an address that isn't monitored. Things like bank notifications and alerts are designed to be one-way communications, so the no-reply address ma

I really like the new look of explorer with the ribbon: http://www.itworld.com/sites/default/files/HyperV-11-600.png Wish I could get that on Win7.

Maybe I'm a luddite, but I would never give something access to my facebook profile or contact list without ever actually using the service.

Thanks for replying. I can understand how someone who puts tons of time and effort into something can sometimes mistake questions and confusion for criticism. I plan on using Fuel for something soon, and if I have any questions I'll check o

I've been following Fuel's commits ever since they were on GitHub, and it's been impressive watching it all come together. The only concern I have is with the overall tone of the project, influenced mainly by Dan. There was one comment here

What happens if your phone is in a poor reception area, or without internet connection? Then you can't listen to music? Can the app manage which songs you'd also like to have stored locally on the phone? Is this meant to supplement your old

Worked great for me, good job. I'd be interested in a PHP binding too, and knowing what the eventual cost will be.
