As for Olds for nerds? This nerd would very much like to have a G-body Cutlass Supreme, tastefully done to appear stock while having enough go, stop and handling to be a lot of fun. I'm thinking a Rocket 350 fed by a quad of Weber twin-chokes, into a Tremec five-speed on the floor, with leather interiors and some kind of tasteful alloy wheels with period-looking tall-ish sidewall tires.
What's your Olds for Nerds?
Ah... I have an 81 Olds with a 350 (Chev ZZ4/355HP) with a Tremec five-speed and a 9'' rear that I just completed. Looks mostly stock (other than a few interior details and some minor trim). Talk about fast and fun!

Do you need a Google account if you buy an Android phone? Seriously asking. I swear when I set mine up I skipped the setup for the account. I added one only for the Play Store I thought.
As in added one after the fact of the phone being setup... IE, I could have gone without it if I didn't want the Play Store.

Comment Re:Bigger options button is the main one (Score 1) 59
The complaint I have is in Madden and a few other games, is I've been screwed trying to hit the options button but missing it and hitting the touch-pad button. I've called multiple timeouts (touch-pad) in Madden when I was just trying to pause the game (options).
Granted, that's maybe more of an issue with controller button mapping in the game (which I could change), but I still feel it's not the perfect layout. I do prefer it over the X360 controller I had. Haven't tried a Xbox One controller yet though.

even webOS was significantly underrated. multitasking on my old Pre was wayyy better than on any of the crappy android or windows 8 phones i've had since
the card-view or whatever it was called as spot on... the current Android tries a similar approach but still doesn't feel quite the same...

Well like I said before I can drink and handle it just fine but I don't because that's not 'professional'.
Hell I'd probably work better with others if I could snag a couple brews around lunch.

Look I'm all for allowing them to smoke on their own time, but I don't show up to interviews or work buzzing off of a couple bloody marys. Relax the drug screenings yes, but showing up high? That's just immature IMHO.

Do wireless mice and keyboards have any lag compared to wired? I realize a controller will be wireless but I know in the past that some wireless keyboards had lag issues. Of course, I bought shitty cheap ones.
