This is great!! Last week I took out my old Pre 2 and Pixi to show my kids. It brought up great memories. I can’t wait to spend the weekend going through this.
How did you find everything and put it together?

I just recently tried to revive my Acer Aspire with Debian, after many years of just sitting on the shelf. It installed and runs, but it's not the same. I loved having it originally. Highly portable, I could sit it on my lap on an airplane, and not worry about not having enough space!

I've attended ACCU a few times and really enjoyed it. I've also heard good things about Steelcon, but I haven't made it there yet.

I'm a big fan of the ACCU conference. It's not too big, but packed with lots of good talks.

Cooking. You can cook for yourself or others. You can make simple or complex things. You can change recipes to fit your liking and get creative and come up with new things. And at the end, you get to eat it.
Ask HN: How to host a website out of my garage?
In a recent episode of Silicon Valley, the team decided they wanted to run their own servers out of their garage instead of using managed hosting. If one wanted to do something similar, how would you? I'm assuming it's a more work than just connecting your local router up to the servers right?

Re:Ask HN: Any Hackers Love Sports?

Big sports fan here. I enjoy watching the game and participating. I've been working on a side project for managing the social sport/rec league teams I play on.
The idea you raised is an interesting one. There are lots of really cool visualizations out there these days. I've always wondered how we could make them more useful during the games.

I wonder which is a better deal for a new tablet owner. A 2012 N7 or a 2013 N7? Seems like a lot of people are satisfied with their N7 and it is getting the new software update. Should I go for the new or stick with last year's model?

Re:BBM for iOS and Android to Launch This Summer
on Tuesday May 14, 2013 @03:56PM (#5707601)
I remember a few years back all my friends had Blackberries and we could all sit in a room and have full conversations over bbm, excluding those without blackberries. Now we all are split over Android and iOS but we all use whatsapp and groupme.
BBM was great for instant messaging back in the day, but it's been out of the game for too long now.
