Very nice

Thanks dude. That helps. A table of feature comparisons would be interesting, but the API page worked really well to give me an impression of the differences.

I'm sick of seeing posts here on people thinking they spend way too much on food when it's really under the USDA estimate, so here's a handy table. ($214/mo. for a single male, Aug 2011) by one_hot_llamain Frugal

What kind of difficulties could I face with a team that is experienced to jQuery. Will introducing this be a big switch, a small one, or seamless? What type of things might I still need jQuery to handle that neon.js won't?

How is it that so many people don't understand the difference between needs and wants? by cochedejmuin Anticonsumption

[–]ExtraGravy 2 points3 points ago

1st world citizens don't often have experience with needs. Needs are so simple and easily satisfied that most of us barely notice them. Now, wants on the other hand are well marketed and never satisfied.

My brother is leaving on a Mormon mission in 2 months. by cabbiusin skeptic

[–]ExtraGravy 1 point2 points ago

Frame his trip as an opportunity to learn about himself. "Know thyself" is a safe way to get people to introspect and ask questions... if he follows this long enough it will open him up.

Japanese redditors, are there any elements of American and European pop culture that make *you* go WTF? by MaxChaplinin AskReddit

Sadly, its not cheap. It gets more expensive every election cycle.

Texas drought has become so severe, the state may loose its entire cattle industry. by tcd004in texas

I don't know about the rest of Austin, but my lawn is dying. Much of the neighborhood is losing their lawns too. The two day a week watering restrictions can't compete with the heat and the lack of rain.

Why doesn't Microsoft update their Zune HD regularly like Apple does the iPod touch? Is it just one try then give up? by Slyxin tech

[–]ExtraGravy 1 point2 points ago

Almost no apps are available. Loading time on much of the Zune software screens are really slow. Much of the music that I would like to listen to is not available - I can download many titles from Amazon but not Zune... Oh and the "Picks" in marketplace are useless. Also, when I want to buy something the purchase screen loads way slow...

I wish they would add more servers to speed up the response times of their applications and they need to stay on top of getting music - they are letting other outlets get my sales when I can't access the music through their interface. They need to innovate more on their "Picks" and aids for music discovery. Also, they need to allow us to provide multiple genres for music through a tagging system of some kind - much modern music doesn't comfortably fit in a single genre.

All of that said, I love my ZuneHD - it just feels like they aren't pushing forward.

I'm a big fan of ZuneHD but MS seems to be neglecting the platform.

Yes. It is awesome. I could have enjoyed another 5 hours.
