Comment Freefall (Score 1) 321

Surprised to not see anyone recommend Freefall (http://freefall.purrsia.com). For art, I am really taken with A Redtail's Dream (http://minnasundberg.fi/) and The Bean (http://www.beanleafpress.com/). Aw, hell, and The Abominable Charles Shaw (http://www.abominable.cc/). Too many good ones for me to choose just one. My list just keeps growing so I'll stop.

Comment Recommendations for Mac? (Score 1) 448

I've wanted to get a good set of headphones with mic for use with the Mac... which means it must be USB capable. Everything I've tried so far is crap. The Creative USB connector has fallen apart on three of them so far. I don't want to have to get a separate mic because I use it with a laptop and it's just annoying to have that many cables. Anyone have any recommendations?

If I had penned this gem: "Author of dystopian novel about the logical conclusion of many trends in modern society, Fahrenheit 451, and many other works that have inspired fans of speculative fiction for decades has died at the age of 91 in Los Angeles, California, Tuesday night, June 5th, 2012. " Could it have been made more torturous?

Comment Impressive Summary (Score 0) 737

Submitter managed heroically to not mention what GIMP was in the whole summary or what products it compared to. Yes, I know what it is but there's no excuse for a summary not to at least mention what the damn software does.

I see... Because I have kids -and- an electronic gadget I'm obligated to spend $10 per month on apps? Interesting. I guess if my kid had no other interests I might could get behind you. You know what? I suspect it'd just be easier if there was a mandated $10/month app spending requirement that came with kids and iDevices so I could just stop thinking about how to spend my money. Thanks for your kid raising advice, stranger!

Is it just me or does the fact that their allowance program has a -minimum- purchase of $10 per month seem a bit ridiculous? Damned if I'm going to give a young child $10 per month to spend on games and in-app purchases. If Apple really wanted to make it useful for parents it would have a $1 minimum. Instead, it's about pulling more money.
