I forgot to mention that when my downstairs computer is on, reception for channel 11 drops out completely, as well as sometimes other channels. Read more

Great article. I went through all this in North San Diego County, a notoriously difficult area for over the air TV reception. I ended up with a directional RCA Suburban Mini Yagi Digital Outdoor Antenna with Mast, Silver and matching RCA signal amplifier both available cheap from Wal-Mart. I laid the antenna on an… Read more

Is there going to be a new set of packs for 2017? Read more

Close to 40, I got disgusted with the results of my sedentary lifestyle, took some adult swimming classes, and started swimming. After a couple of years, and inspired by my partner, I joined a running group. Important disclaimer: I have always hated running with a fiery hatred. Read more

Wow, reading this article I realized just how many things I have learned from you. You’ve educated us, moderated our occasional dust-ups in the comment peanut gallery, and showed us how to be a positive force in the world. You seem to have a good moral compass so just keep following it and you’ll be fine. Best of… Read more

I, personally, have learned quite a substantial portion of my vocabulary and general reading comprehension from playing MMOs. The unfortunate reverse to this is learning words by only reading them, and never actually hearing them, causes me to sound like an idiot and mispronounce words I’ve read. Shattrath City, while… Read more

I can’t forget how AirTran wanted to bury me in a swamp.

Hi Alan, Great article! Thank you for sharing this with the world, it is much needed. Please check out our trailer for my documentary “Invisible Women: Being A Black Woman In Corporate America”.

To talk about the actual article instead of which vs of Android I’m running or waiting for nugget (no offense guys, but he did ask specifically to reply about your cats). The first cat I got was 727. The only cat I keep getting is 727 no matter what food I try. Disappointing but I’m not going to give up yet. Read more

THIS IS AMAZING! We just got a set of Corningware and Pyrex as wedding gifts and they got stuck! I was so sad after days of tugging. This worked in 30 seconds!

Thank you for this helpful article. For the purpose of open office on windows 10, web, email, occasional game, occasional video editing and occasional data cruncher I would like to base a system on your $300 build with the following changes: cpu A8-7600 (double the passmark of the a6), motherboard asus A68HM (don’t… Read more

I don’t have the pictures, because I gave them to my daughter. But framing artwork your kids made in school turns out awesome! I kept every single thing from my daughters school career (I have about 175 pictures to frame yet). My favorite, and hers now too is the very first painting she brought home from kindergarten.… Read more

Alan, I have the privilege of reviewing some beekeeping equipment for the first time, and I was at a loss as to where to start. The examples, reasoning, and template that you provide are going to make a world of difference. Thanks so much for this post. Read more

It’s all about the Topre switch. I just got my Realforce RGB Topre mechanical keyboard and although it’s expensive, it is far and away the best keyboard I have ever used. Just FYI. I think Topre is the best switch of them all. Read more

You’re delicious, boss

my dad used to always joke about calling the pizza place... they would say “do you want it cut into six or eight slices?” and he’d say “better make it six, I’ll never be able to eat eight.” Read more

This makes perfect sense from a business standpoint as well. The customer is covering more than just the cost of the raw materials. From a labour standpoint, it is essentially the same amount of time (read: same number of steps/movements) to make a small pizza versus a large pizza, which is part of the “base cost” on… Read more

Thank you! One of the (VERY) few PMP’s who gets it... Read more

My favorite is the Jiffy Lube “PCV valve replacement”.

My ex religiously took her car to Jiffy Lube for oil changes. Every time she went in, they’d charge her $50 for a basic oil change (no synthetic, just regular oil)

So I asked her, “What are they doing? It’s supposed to be a $20 oil change.” Read more
