I'm currently reading The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo but I also just God is not Great by Christopher Hitchens. Hitchens' book is a very slow read because of his diction. I have to look up a fair amount of words every chapter but I really like it.

Car Accessory Disables Cell Phones While You're Driving.
This seems like a very foolish device. If you can't trust your child to drive responsibility because they own a cellphone they probably shouldn't be driving at all or shouldn't have a phone. Also, what if they need to use the phone because of an emergency, witness a crime etc.?

Untethered iPhone 4S, iPad 2 Jailbreak Released for OS X and Windows.
@GS_Dan said:Out of curiosity, what do you get out of it?Direct acces to the command line. Apps that wouldn't have passed Apple certification for various reasons. You can dramatically change the UI and apply themes.The main reason I wanted to jailbreak my iPhone was because of tethering and having internet everywhere on my laptop, but I've heard rumors of AT&T cracking down on that and automatically changing your plan.

Lightweight Windows for a netbook...
on the General Discussion board.
@Shivoa: @Ben_H: This might be a silly question but I'll ask it just the same, why do you recommend XP over Windows 7? I was under the impression that the required "power" to run XP and Windows 7 was about the same. Is it a significant difference or does it only come into play when talking about a netbook?

Moving from 22" Vizio to 42" Sanyo question
on the Home Theater board.
As far as I know, the picture quality is going to drop relatively when you move to a larger size screen. The only thing I can recommend is doing what you said, sitting farther away from the TV.With a 42" TV, you should probably be sitting about six feet away.Hope that helps!

Funny how you realize how much your friends post on FB/Twitter about food when you are incapable of eating any solid food for weeks
