I spent more time (7 minutes) driving than voting, and I was in and out in less than 5 minutes. There was no one waiting to use the voting machines (Diebold), and only one voter was there (lunch time).

Why not use a Raspberry Pi as an NTP server?
CrossOver does more than be Wine with "paid-for support and easier installation". It installs additional libraries, fonts, etc., required for the app/game to work -- winetricks also does this, but on a much less polished and broad scale. It can create separate 'bottles' (self-contained wine installations); you can install just the one app, or multiple apps per bottle, and the shortcuts that launch the game/app are configured to use the appropriate bottle automatically without manual changing to that bottle required.
That said, I use wine to run WoW, but may give CrossOver a shot, especially if I can get the Curse client working under it.
I'm 29, and I use Perl everyday as a sysadmin. With sysadmin work slow (I guess I'm too good at my job?), to expand my skills/experience in Perl, I volunteered to work with the developers on some Perl-applicable work (working on it right now). I love Perl, and I don't think I'd have it any other way.
Perl isn't old, it's established, stable, and useful.
Except that the Android fork changes have been merged back into the linux kernel.

I interviewed with Rackspace in San Antonio, meeting with 8 different people over the course of 3 hours. I then had to interview in Austin for over an hour with three other people, just to be told they were 'pursuing other applicants'.
It was not a pleasant experience.
Being able to control your music player and volume from the lock screen (Android ICS features, or was it even in Gingerbread?), notifications being accessible at lock screen (Jelly Bean, or was it it ICS, too?).
As a current Gnome 3 user at work and home (home since Gnome 3 beta days), and a holder of an Android Jelly Bean phone (Galaxy Nexus), I welcome these changes with open arms.
I had to re-read this several times before getting it. Bravo.
Exactly. The browser was perfectly adequate back in the 3.0 days.
In fact, server auto-discovery has made it difficult to configure Tbird on my systems, since I do my own imapd but rely on my ISP's smtp.
It's definitely a pain in the ass, I tell you, but you can work around server auto-discovery. Set Thunderbird in offline mode, and auto-discovery no longer works. You can then go to advanced setup and set up normally.
You missed the part where he inplied that _all_ social media sites are boring.
I worked for a small PC repair shop that became authorized by Apple to perform repairs. The person repairing the Macs had to take a lengthy test to ensure they were competent in Apple product repair. We then became an Apple authorized repair center and would receive pre-paid shipping boxes with the replacement parts to send the old parts free of charge. We also got a significant reimbursement for time spent performing the repairs.
That is what they mean by 'authorized', either an official Apple store or a 3rd-party authorized repair company. Anyone can repair them if they right tools, but it may void the warranty since it's made by an unauthorized third-party.
So long as they don't called it "Mozzarella Foxfire", I'm good.
XBMC is meant for media centers. If you're not using it on a PC you're using as a media center, then XBMC is likely not for you. It is called "XBMC Media Center" for a reason.
Most weeks, yes, I have a 40 hour workweek. Overtime is on a volunteer basis, and sometimes I volunteer.
