Mine is around 15 to 20 minutes, depending on traffic. I always move closer to work if I relocate or get a new job and it's further away. I hate wasting my free time driving.

Guess you'll have to play DCUO or Champions Online. I know I have been playing Star Wars lately, and travel is torture compared to any supers game.

I like MMOs, but I'm well aware that I'm just renting a game. I also played CoH, and it was fun for a couple years. I think it just got too old compared to newer games. In any case, I'm glad I played it. I kinda feel bad for those who have been playing the full 8 years and are heavily invested in their characters. Then again, this is a bit of a reality check.

I'm really glad I bought Skyrim on PC. I've got at least one "Dawnguard expansion" worth of material free as mods. (I've even posted a few small ones of my own)

Of course, most American parents don't understand evolution at all, so it will be impossible to fix this mess. If our population was better educated, we'd be ok, but both parties have done their best to destroy it while telling everyone they are fixing the problems.

Instead of paying $1,000 per toilet seat, they now just say what they're doing. The CIA and military agencies should take note.

This bodes ill for the future. A lot of people are waiting until their thirties until they have kids. I wonder if anyone has done research on whether birth defects are increasing overall?

At least in the US, big pharmaceutical company profits are far more important than something as silly as the health of the general population.

I really liked KDE3, as well. Unfortunately, it's gone and I don't believe anyone has forked it. If they have, please let me know!

He'll make far more money welding than most IT guys will. And he'll get a great pension, as long as he joins a welders union (which he probably will, unless you are way out in the boonies).

I plan on sticking with Win7. The point you are missing is that many people LIKE the standard Windows set-up. We don't see a reason for it to change, especially just to pander to a small segment of the market (tablets). Guess what, tablets are great for watching YouTube and updating Facebook, and suck for just about anything else. Microsoft has remained dominant because it takes care of corporate customers. The new UI is going to mess this up for them. I suspect a few months after release, a number of managers are going to be fired and the UI will at least have the option of the Win7 style, if it isn't just changed to it outright.

Jokes on them! I've never had a girlfriend!

Which is still the best post-apocalyptic novel ever written. Unfortunately, as stated, when I bring up his name even among scifi fans, I usually get a blank look.
