Correct me where I'm wrong. There's a strong biological component to homosexuality in human beings. Nature (or "choice") plays a small role.

The cushioning was the same, but when told the cushioning was firmer, they'd land more softly, and when told […]

A good article: Designing the Packaging-Free Future | Wired Design | Wired.com. What has impressed me about Apple for the past ten years is that they're relentlessly reducing packaging while almost simultaneously improving (or at least maintaining) the "unboxing experience."

Nevertheless, starting on July 1, 2011, Bobby Bonilla […]

What are the best ways to score the least expensive airline tickets? For example, if I fly to San Diego from Erie, PA on April 11 and want to return on April 15, when should I buy the tickets? What day, using what methods? I know to spoof a Windows browser. I've heard that. How […]

Good stuff: The right way to share a file or bunch of files using Dropbox. I happened to know all of this, and use Dropbox fairly extensively, but it's a short read and you may learn something. Dropbox would really do well to add some sort of ability to let people SEE the contents, use […]

BTW, since I mentioned Safari yesterday, I've looked at other browsers that still exist for Mac OS X. I'm hoping the comments can fill with others. Of course, many people know about OmniWeb. Camino is still around, as is, oddly, iCab. Those are the first three that sprang to mind, but I imagine there are […]

I've been enjoying Don Melton's posts lately. For example: Keeping Safari a secret and Safari is released to the world. Good gosh Safari is old. I'm old. Wow.
