Dishwasher recommendations?

For a reasonable price (around $400 US), I've been very happy with the Whirlpool Gold Series that my home's previous owner installed. It's fairly quiet (quieter than garbage apartment ones, not quite as quiet as high-end), and doesn't usually need any pre-washing to get things clean. The Bosch...

Food thieves at work need to DIAF

I'm sorry that Bobby didn't like my famous Ghost Pepper Chicken. I love spicy food; what can I say? Well, I'm sorry he had to get his stomach pumped, but I wasn't expecting anyone to steal it... :D

Net Neutrality rules are good or bad?

That's my point. A new video startup would be damn near impossible now, because Netflix will pay off the big ISPs to ensure the newcomer can't compete. It's not competition for ISPs that I'm talking about (although I'd like to see that, too). It's that very monopoly that makes net neutrality...

Net Neutrality rules are good or bad?

Net neutrality is very important to keep, and we're going down a path that will stifle innovation. I think a lot of the opposition to the concept comes from lack of understanding. I use a telephone analogy: Let's say you want to order a pizza. Dominos and a new local Italian place are in the...

I refuse to believe this is true

But the reality is so much worse... :D

Lots of robo calls since switching to Verizon

My guess would be that the phone number was already on spam lists from its previous owner. I doubt it's anything specific to Verizon.

Kitchen appliance recomendations

An LG refrigerator destroyed my wood floor because they routed a plastic ice maker water line over the hot exhaust. It got brittle, cracked, and flooded my first floor. Never, ever again.

What kind of jerk would do this?

Same kind of psychopath who puts olives on a pizza, contaminating the whole pie with its vile essence. :eek:

Last time you cried in a movie?

The ending of Saving Private Ryan. Still chokes me up when I see it.

NAS Owner Question

You would, but with one caveat: The lower-powered Synology devices (like my 216j) cannot transcode video. That means you'd have to convert your videos ahead of time to match the device you're playing them on, which is a huge, impractical pain in the neck. If you're planning on using one as a...

NAS Owner Question

Convenience for our whole household. It's always on, draws very little power, and makes very little noise or heat. My Synology NAS will allow everything in the house to back up to it, including the "Time Machine" backup system on Apple's laptops. It then automatically backs up the parts I care...
