Did you notice that the volume in the player goes to 11?
Re:Zurb Foundation 5 Released on Friday November 22, 2013 @02:01PM (#6782932)
Just took a closer look at this. Yes they are using libsass. They are using it with grunt and grunt-sass (https://github.com/sindresorhus/grunt-sass), which uses node-sass (https://github.com/andrew/node-sass).

There are other implementations available: https://github.com/hcatlin/libsass/wiki/Implementations

Re:Google now treats .io as a gccTLD on Monday May 06, 2013 @02:24PM (#5663865)
Try gandi.net. They offer free whois privacy with registration and their prices on .io domains are VERY good. One thing you will have to do is let your credit card company know about the transaction as the charge will come from France and will be flagged as fraudulent (at least that was my experience with AMEX).
Re:Nexus Q launch delayed indefinitely, no longer available for pre-order on Tuesday July 31, 2012 @07:00PM (#4320104)
I think a lot of people who are interested in these streaming devices have separate component for their AV stack and would rather use their setup rather than the 25W amp in the Q. The other set of consumers would most likely hook the Q up directly to their TVs. The only use case where I would find the integrated amp useful would be in an office, kitchen, or some place similar.

I think Express may be freeform enough to implement an app in this manner.
Re:Pocket Released (Formerly Read It Later) on Tuesday April 17, 2012 @02:32PM (#3854240)
I just tried adding that Microsoft article via the Pocket Chrome extension (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/niloccemoadcdkdjli...) and had no problems with it identifying the content correctly.
Re:Gmail Down on Tuesday April 17, 2012 @01:23PM (#3853794)
And when it does go down, how long is it going to take you to get it back up and running?
Re:Gmail Down on Tuesday April 17, 2012 @01:13PM (#3853719)
My personal gmail service is down too; however, my Google Apps gmail is fine. Not too concerned though. Gmail has been very solid for me throughout the years.

looks to be officially sold out now. I have been trying since 7 am.

Good to know I can fax them if I have any questions. https://developers.google.com/events/io/register

Looks like we've reached Godwin's Law. That's didn't take too long.
Re:Wikipedia to Shut Down on Wednesday to Protest SOPA on Monday January 16, 2012 @02:55PM (#3472171)
I strongly think Google, Facebook, Wikipedia, and Amazon (not AWS) should all proceed with the nuclear option on the 18th, even though congress has temporarily shelved SOPA. The reality of the situation is that very few people outside of the tech community have any idea about SOPA and PIPA and how it jeopardizes the Internet.
