  1. Chashu in my ramen last night was overcooked.

    "New" office manager, after two months, still can't keep up with the coffee demand. People in this office drink coffee; check the coffeepots, make coffee, it's not that hard. Your predecessor never ran out.

  2. People who, no matter how many times their space heaters trip the circuit breaker and shut down every computer in the office, continue to turn their space heaters on anyway.

    Put on a sweater. Wear a hat. Drink some Tabasco. Go to hell.

    It's not even cold in here.

  3. So I figured out the thing that pisses me off about my phone. The autofocus is terrible. I could just press the button on my iPhone and the picture would be in focus 9/10. On my droid I have to press to focus like 6 times and the pictures never come out as good as my moms 4S. Is this user error?

    iPhones take much better pictures than any Android phone I've used. Android is arguably better for some other things, I just bought my second Android phone after considering switching.

    Sorry for always asking you guys for help. I recently rooted my phone. Trying to remove bloatware using Root Explorer but even after moving the files/renaming them the apps don't disappear. What am I missing?

    I don't know, I've never rooted my Android phones, but there is a pretty good forum full of knowledgeable people and FAQs that can probably provide the answers you seek:

  4. insomnia, thanks for the detailed review. I still need to go to a store and play with the GN, then I may have some more questions for you. I have seen other comments about the phone getting hot, so it's not just your phone.

    gecko, my OG Droid sometimes would take a long time to get GPS lock. My brother's sometimes wouldn't lock even when mine would. I think there's a lot of variance in the quality of the GPS radios. Does your Galaxy S2 only have problems in certain locations, or is it always slow?

  5. ^ how do you like it so far? Pros and cons?

    I was considering waiting for the Galaxy Nexus but in the meanwhile I played with a Droid Razr and was impressed with the design and solid feel of it.

    When I was comparing specs I realized the Razr had a few things that I felt were important to me. Good feel and finish, Motorola radio, and mass storage mode. My original Droid was leaking oil and dropping screws everywhere, so I decided to go with the Razr. Happy with it so far, I had forgotten what a responsive phone is like.

  6. when I moved out of my apt in september my camera (nikon d40) mysteriously went missing... I thought that maybe during the move it got lost but to be honest I didn't lose anything else, just the camera.

    My roommate (that moved in last august, I knew her for a total of 1 month) said she didn't see it.

    I kind of lost hope even though my friends and family told me that it was probably her that did it - seeing as she was the only person present in the apartment when I moved out..and it would have been super easy to swipe it in the midst of me moving boxes and painting my room.

    I didn't want to blame her because I thought it was a shitty thing to do BUT this bitch JUST put up some photos on facebook of her taking pictures of herself in the mirror with a nikon camera (can see the strap)... I can't make out the model because her finger is in front of it but it is a goddamn dslr and she is not into photography at all - these pictures were all blurry and shit

    I casually messaged her and asked her if she had "found my camera" but arghhh I don't know how to go about investigating and/or corroborating if the camera is mine...

    damn facebook deleting EXIF data

    sufu help what do I do???

    Ask her to borrow the camera for a day to take some quick shots of something, since yours got lost. Did you record the serial number, by any chance? Or are there any identifying marks on the camera? Once it's in your possession, if you can positively identify it, you've got her dead to rights.

    If nothing else, you'll get to see her squirm.

  7. Every day when I get to work I get a cup of coffee and sit down to check email, assess the day's work, and if it's not busy, log into various forums to see what's going on. The coffee sits there ignored. Eventually I get around to taking a sip and it is always cold by then. I go and pour it out. I rarely get another cup to replace it.

    It's not even bad coffee.
