TROPHY CASE

TF101 post update still bootlooping/random restart! by paloniousin asustransformer

[–]Sisyphean 1 point2 points ago

Not a fix, but a work-around (from XDA):

I installed WakeLock a few weeks ago and set it to "Partial_Wake_Lock." I have not experienced the bootloop/random restart once since then. I also haven't noticed any additional battery drain. Pretty pleased with this... I was getting really frustrated when I'd pick up my Transformer and see it stuck on that damn boot screen.

Google Drive vs. Dropbox, SkyDrive, SugarSync, and others: a cloud sync storage face-off by hollyshortin gadgets

[–]Sisyphean 0 points1 point ago

This comparison indicates that Google Drive doesn't have media streaming. I've uploaded videos and watched them (streaming) on other PCs and on my phone, so this seems inaccurate to me.

Like the d/l icon; useful.

Would prefer the play button to toggle to pause icon when clicked.

Dallas, Texas. Home of the tractor-trailer flippin' tornadoes.

Great shot. I live in the Fort, but the green light BofA skyscraper was the giveaway.

The Okeanos Explorer is the USA's only vessel fully dedicated to research.

Yesterday they explored a shipwreck in the Gulf.

Here is some supplemental reading on the investigation on the coral they'll be making today.

Do not let up! Here are the companies that advertised on Rush's show yesterday by bckids1208twoin politics

[–]Sisyphean 1 point2 points ago

Let me further point out that some of the ads you hear are "local" ads; that is, they were purchased to air only on your local station, not nationally on Rush. And of these local ad buys, some of the advertisers purchased inexpensive packages that allow their ads to be run at anytime, at the discretion of the station.

I'm certainly not defending the advertisers, but merely pointing our the situation that some of them are in. They may never have wanted to run on Rush, just during some inexpensive time-slots, but as those running more expensive ads during Rush's show pull out, suddenly they find their ads running during Rush to fill the void. Sure, they can call the station and make them stop running their ads during Rush, but this takes time.

That was my first thought, too!

I crave Schwartz's regularly... my mouth is watering right now just think about it. Unfortunately, I'm 2500 km away. :(
