TROPHY CASE

Seriously Google, can we get any zooming capability in the Gmail app? by doyoulikebreadin Android

[–]coheedcollapse 2 points3 points ago

Ah, that makes sense. I've just never run into that problem so I didn't think of it.

Gunman holding an unknown number of hostages inside an Indiana real estate office by twenafeeshin news

[–]coheedcollapse 2 points3 points ago

My mom used to work in this office and is friends with many of the people there, including the woman who escaped after being pistol-whipped by the gunman. Freaking glad she's not there now.

The paper I work for is covering it pretty heavily. Only one photog out there (not me), but he's weathering out the whole thing.

Not that I'd be opposed to this addition (It'd be neat for people who need it), but why not simply change the text size to "large" or "extra large" in the settings?

I don't feel as if there's really a need for pinch to zoom when text size throughout most emails is reasonably constant.

That said, why not? I have nothing against the inclusion.

Oh, I agree completely in that case.

I just remember people bitching about every day of a few Steam sales getting a separate post, but there's definitely a reason for that.

Heads up! Conan in Chicago tickets are going out. by coheedcollapsein chicago

Don't give up hope yet! The official site gives May 28 as the "deadline" for invites, so you can still definitely get one.

Looks about right to me! Thanks for some science to back up my experience in lighting hell!

Are new deals being added to the "Because we May" site daily?

I really appreciate the daily updates of Steam sales because it gives a centralized place to discuss which games are worth getting and which games to pass up - if this were conglomerated into a single thread, it'd be a cluster.

You're allowed to bring any 3 people with you as long as you take them with you to pick up your tickets.

The only thing it says in the fine print is that if you show up to pick up your tickets without your "extras", you forfeit their tickets.

Probably a protective measure so jerks don't go, pick up four tickets, and scalp three of them at the gates before the show starts. Understandable, but sucks for those of us who want to go early and have friends with other obligations.

Does it drive anyone else crazy that Google Reader will update the feed you are reading, while you are reading it, and completely disorient you? by caliberin Android

[–]coheedcollapse 1 point2 points ago

I love Feedly and have it on my phone, but I use it alongside Reader instead of as a replacement.

Feedly is great for small amounts of important stories, but it doesn't really work well for displaying large amounts of data in a stream.

Grand Theft Auto III on sale for 99 Cents on Google Play by ragflanin Android

[–]coheedcollapse 3 points4 points ago

It should also disable the ability to review, to weed out idiots who ignore the warnings and are still pissed it won't run on their phone.

[–]coheedcollapse 1 point2 points ago

Don't be too sad. I own an Evo 3D, which should more than be able to handle the damn game, and it's still marked as incompatible.

Worse yet, it wasn't marked as incompatible when the game first released. No idea what happened in between.

Also, the blue green magenta cycling of gym halogen.

God I hate that crap.

Sometimes you can hit extremes where even RAW won't work properly. I once shot in a school gym so yellow that it was literally off the charts - still yellow even though I manually pegged my white balance to the lowest it could go. Couldn't do anything in LR with it, obviously, because white balance doesn't go any lower in there. Ended up losing the RAW advantage and just applying a blue filter to balance out the colors.

Luckily it wasn't for anything important.

More smoke from the qwerty nexus fire by Gandhisfistin Android

[–]coheedcollapse 6 points7 points ago

I feel like I'm alone here in saying I've completely grown apart from my love for full-keyboard phones.

Used to be ridiculously attached to having a separate keyboard, but since I've gotten used to improved Android keyboards (and eventually Switfkey), I can totally live without a physical keyboard. Hell, I'd even say I prefer touch keyboards.

[–]coheedcollapse[S] 0 points1 point ago

Tickets are free and you had to sign up for them a month or so ago.

I'm sure some less-than-scrupulous people will be selling them, but I have no idea how that'll work since you have to have your whole party present when you pick up the tickets on show day.

Ah, whoops. Missed that and considering my friends didn't get in on it I thought I may have been in the first wave. Thanks for the heads up.

You're a good wife. Good to hear other people are getting them.

Must be delivering them in waves or something.

Edit: Someone did a drive-by downvote of everyone in this thread. Wtf?

MIT Fixes the ketchup bottle problem. by nickyaculloin videos

Yeah, I guessed that too. I don't think there are many fats (if any) in ketchup.

I can't even remember. it was at least a month ago, probably more. I signed up the second I heard about it.

I requested 4 as well! Figured if I was gonna go for it, I'd go all out. Guess it worked out in the end.

[–]coheedcollapse[S] 0 points1 point ago

I guess so, but it's from a conacotv email address and the attached pdf looks completely legitimate with legalese, ticket pick up information, and conan letterhead and all.

I signed up the second I heard about it, so maybe that has something to do with it?

At least a few of my friends signed up at around the same time and still haven't gotten tickets yet, so maybe they're rolling them out gradually with the last wave going out on the 28th?

Photographers, how do you protect your expensive gear when traveling? With an average of $2000 worth of gear you carry at one time in public, what tips can you give for not get mugged or ripped off? by fearsofgunin photography

[–]coheedcollapse 0 points1 point ago

Mainly because a lot of people don't understand guns.

It's an instrument created with the sole intent to kill someone and it serves that purpose incredibly well.

Not saying that people don't sensationalize the danger of guns, but there's plenty reason to be scared of the things.

I thought FEAR 3 was pretty good and I've played all three. Didn't think it was boring. Maybe predictable, but it didn't bother me.
