Actually no one really cares what your host file looks like.

I've purchased a few themes as well, however every time I've gone to do it I usually contact the author via email first and offer to buy the theme directly from him for 30-40% off. I save money, they get more money, we all win.

And he only got $29,140 if he was using ThemeForest exclusively. If he was selling themes elsewhere, he only got to keep $11,750 of that $47,000. ThemeForest takes an enormous cut.

Looks like Facebook is going to need to find another CDN...

Or, you know, stop using a browser that's 3 years old.

This will hold true until the iPhone 5 comes with a 4"+ screen. Then it will become magical and revolutionary.
Mark my words...

Nonsense Steve, your diet "just works".

Kind of hard to use Google+ when Google Apps doesn't even support it!

Good job, link to an https article when over half the content on the page is delivered via HTTP.

Except Google Apps.

I'm sure they will go bankrupt now because you decided not to sign up.

I don't like having a thousand apps on my phone though. It's nice to just go to Apple's Music app and play any song on my library.

iTunes Match, so it's streaming and download.
RyanKearney | 14 years ago | on: Spotify Surpasses 2 Million Paying Subscribers
Especially since I pay $25 a YEAR for 256bit AAC streaming audio to all of my computers and mobile devices. Spotify is simply too expensive.

>nobody has ever been able to even begin to convince us that our patients' data was secure.
Just use Citrix then instead of some random third party application?
RyanKearney | 14 years ago | on: The Google Wallet, a lifetime log of your purchases
If you use them for email then they already know much more about you than you think. What's the difference between Google and Master Card knowing your purchases? Unless you cash your paychecks every week and only spend cash then a company still knows everything you purchase.

RyanKearney | 14 years ago | on: Breakthrough: The Secret to Making Processors 1,000 Times Faster
I think I remember reading an Intel article about something like this not too long ago. You can't just do this because of a few factors. When you start stacking the die like this, the latency grows. You now have to wait for signals to travel up through multiple processor die before it gets to the die that will process the instruction. It's this reason that you end up with diminishing returns when making processors "taller".
Not only that, but unless you can increase the speed of the FSB by 100 times, you will have a serious bottleneck between the processor and the motherboard. You're now funneling 100 CPU's worth of information through a socket and medium designed for 1 CPU.

Except you can bet on getting about 24 hours of sleep time on a Windows machine (my HP laptop lasted a little over 24 hours on a full charge) compared to the ~4 weeks of standby you get on a MacBook.
