Check out SAGE from the guy at Hate5six. It's more punk/metal based, but if you're into that, you'll definitely find some new music.

In the Boston area, these signs typically have some variation of "USE YAH BLINKAH"

Xen is out and it is fantastic. I was 13 when it was announced and it was worth the wait. Enjoy :)

If we're thinking of the same Mirror's Edge run, that was meant to be a joke and to bring to light the ridiculousness of a "glitchless" run as a lot of things can be interpreted as a glitch or not.

Internet Explorer 6 was minimized then maximized.
Got a good chuckle out of this.

I was surprised that this was included in the post. More often than not, it has broken installs for my relatives (which in turn I had to fix over the holiday).

I bring this up often with friends. I believe everyone should have to work a food service/retail job. It puts a lot of things in perspective. I feel like I am a better human, having worked many.

I recently setup a racing sim rig and love to just cruise around after work as I don't have a real car. Absolutely de-stresses me.

I believe it's fairly accurate. I've been to both locations, one in Somerville and the one above the Macy's in Downtown Crossing..

Personally speaking, if I had to get a prescription to buy by e-juice and devices (replacement pods, etc) I would still be smoking traditional cigarettes. Former 2 pack a day smoker, quit with the help of a Juul/Uwell Caliburn.

If you use the same juice frequently, over time that flavor will diminish. This is known as "vape tongue" in some communities. When I vaped after kicking cigarettes I had 2-3 different flavors I would rotate to mitigate this.

From my POV, I wouldn't call that an advantage. What happens when the customer (or a potential customer who is doing diligence before purchasing) realizes there's a cheaper, and in most cases, just as easy to use option with something like Themeforest?
