Just finished my first soldering project ever. Hello, new alarm clock!
First thing I soldered was an Xbox modchip, and it was a colossal failure. :< - Clark Baumgartner 蔵明 馬武刀
My husband built a Radio Shack FM tuner from a kit. His hands were too big to reach in and solder everything, so I did it. I really had fun. Thinking of trying it to put together some Steampunk jewely. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed

This would be a great set if it wasn't for that lunkhead in the third pic throwing everything out of alignment. ;) - Derrick
*ahem* that lunkhead happens to be you. and i shot that. recognize *and* marinate. - Melissa
I would like a hug from that lunkhead. - Akiva Moskovitz
marinate? :D - WorldofHiglet
Oh snap, it is. I didn't have my glasses on, Mel *marination ensues* I'M ALL OPEN ARMS AKIVA. - Derrick
Such a lovable lunkhead though. - Jason Huebel
Damn. My mom just fell off her bike and broke her arm. :(
:( - SAM
Yikes. Bicycling is the silent killer. - Nate True
Oh, dude! Did you talk to her directly? Is she OK? - Christopher Harley
:( - Rodfather
Yeah - I got off the phone with her the moment she got home from the ER. She is going to be OK, just needs to heal up. - Sparky, liker of beards
What Sparky is failing to tell you all is that she was trying to pop a wheelie on a unicycle. - Akiva Moskovitz
She was doing pretty well for a few seconds there, then lost traction on the unicycle and everything went wonky. - Sparky, liker of beards
:( Glad she's okay and that the damage was limited. - Yolanda
Bake momma something nommy! - Derrick
Yuk! Hope she recovers soon! - ‘-.-’ Tutivillus Grift
oops ...hope she ll get well soon ... - matmazelange
Glad she's going to be OK! - vicster
Sorry to hear that. I'll pray for her to heal quickly. :) - Brenda Ferguson
Study books for school are horrifically expensive. Hello racket.
There are a lot of discount places you can get textbooks. Don't pay full price or go to the student bookstore. - Rochelle
Any specific sites you would suggest? - Sparky, liker of beards
My husband rents his books from Chegg.com. I have no idea what he pays, though. - Michelle Martinez
I used Half.com the most, although I've heard Amazon Marketplace is good. Also look at http://www.bigwords.com/ - Rochelle
I also see a few posts about trickery regarding editions. The SCCC is cautioning that if you don't get the EXACT version of the book used for the class you are screwed. - Sparky, liker of beards
Related question - does the ISBN of a book change when a new edition comes out? Am I safe buying online by ISBN alone? - Sparky, liker of beards
Of course they say that. They want you to buy books at their bookstore. :) Trust me, I WENT there! Just make sure that the ISBN you get matches the one required for the class. If in doubt, email the instructor and ask. Depending on the class, a lot of them actually don't even care if you have the previous edition. - Rochelle
So the ISBN does change with a new edition of a book then? - Sparky, liker of beards
Confirmed! A co-worker of mine used to edit college textbooks for a living and she said that every time a new edition comes out it should have a new ISBN number. This means I'm 100% set to buy cheap, used books online :)))))) - Sparky, liker of beards
Yes, exactly. - Rochelle
I took a history of photography class a couple terms ago and my textbook was $116 dollars. There were no used ones. We used maybe three chapters of the book for about four weeks of the class. I'm still pissed. - Derrick
Sweet - total bill with bigwords.com is $54 for all three classes by getting used books. This compares to the cheapest of the books from the SCCC store at $65 for ONE of them. - Sparky, liker of beards
My experience: Don't buy a textbook until you know you need it. Uh, I use one of four of my textbooks every semester, and save lots of money this way. Again, that's specific to me, I dunno how it will work for you. Bookstores occasionally are cheaper than buying online + shipping. It's happened to me a few times. - Clark Baumgartner 蔵明 馬武刀
AT&T towers keep flaking out on me here on Beacon Hill tonight.
There has been a wave of this going around. A possible solution is to reset your network settings. I've had lots of flaking in Lincoln, and uh, a reset appears to make thing better, but maybe I'm just trying to convince myself. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. It will clear your wifi passwords and the like. Good luck. - Clark Baumgartner 蔵明 馬武刀
So wait, does IE9 support HTML5 or not?

StairSteady invented by a 16 year old.. - http://blog.makezine.com/archive...
StairSteady invented by a 16 year old..
When not in use, the handle goes from the square section to a round at either the top or bottom of the stairs and so the handle folds away parallel with the wall and is unobtrusive. This allows the stairs to be used by both those with unlimited and limited mobility in the household. Invented by Sheffield girl Ruth Amos who won the prestigious Young Engineer for Great Britain award for its creation, the StairSteady is produced in Sheffield, by one of the top engineering companies, to the highest standards and is distributed by her own company StairSteady Ltd. - Sparky, liker of beards from Bookmarklet

If by mylady, you mean Andru, then yes. yes please. - Andru Edwards

iPhoning in bed next to your sleeping partner kicks ass. I'm doing it now... - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
Can you explain to Chad that it's okay? He gets a big :-( when I do that. - Mike
Tell him it's the best of both worlds: spooning and digital crack! - Sparky, liker of beards
I tried. I think part of it is a sense of inequality, since the cost of an iPhone and associated plan in Canada is obscene. - Mike
Tyler just got a Droid. I have to admit it's pretty sexy. Heavy as all heck though.
My boss and I have like, "My phone can do X with Y app" battles at lunch. He just got one too. :S I gotta say though, pretty neat. I'd like to use it for longer than 30 minutes..., like borrow it for a week. Only thing I don't like are the gold accents. I would have preferred gunmetal or silver. That's..., really minor though. - Clark Baumgartner 蔵明 馬武刀
I agree, it's heavier than my iPhone with Mophie Air. The screen is gorgeous though... *hint hint* Apple... - Mike
