    If you drink vodka martinis, you don't like martinis: you just like vodka.

    A martini without vermouth is just a glass of gin with an olive. And that's not a goddamn cocktail.
    I pour gin into a glass and nod towards France. Good enough for me.

    It appears that the first recorded arrest has taken place using Google Glass, and what better location to film this event than Wildwood, NJ. Congratulations.

    I stand by the fact that gin tastes like pine needles. I actually don't mind it but its probably my least favorite alcohol above anything that tastes like cinnamon or licorice.

    I find I spend more to get clean tasting gin than vodka. Seems like a factor in my preferences.

    That's fine just don't call it a martini.

    It's the idea of the vermouth, man. That's enough.

    What about skipping the vermouth and adding olive brine instead? That's a mixed drink.

    Do homeopathic bars exist yet?

    I can't find the image of that stick figure guy with his finger up, then putting it down. Yeah that'd be a cocktail, but not a martini.

    No, but I think that technically makes them the most popular bars in existence.

    Huh, something is really quite on fire near my place. I wonder what that's all about.

    Someone made a tumblr specifically chronicling all the RAGE that Swimming Anime is producing.

    So my Clear Internet has been kicking ass up until the past two weeks, now it is slow to a crawl to the point I need to download videos online in order to view them rather then playing from the browser. It is at the point where I don't want to get a land line since I may be moving on from the place nor want to sign a contract. Guess I need to call and see what is going on :/

    Wired or wireless? I've run into the problem of living in a block of flats where there are 27 other wireless networks nearby.

    My cat has decided to start getting up at 3 in the morning. Im thinking of dressing it in silly clothes in revenge. Is this strange?
  • RochelleRochelle
    No. I normally chase them down with a squirt bottle. Afterwards, they end up cuddling with us while still wet.
  • ChurbaChurba
    I completely missed the "It" in that, and was wondering how you dressing in silly clothes would bother your cat.

    There was an extensive (34 comment) discussion on a friend's FB wall about how so many great artists are playing Boston this week and how they can't afford it. No mention of the free McCartney show.

    Part of me wants to troll my panel by playing Box Man by Urizen on loop before starting it.

    Tom's Hardware's latest Web Browser Grand Prix gave the nod to Firefox in both performance by a hair (which is why I switched to Chrome way back when) and totally mopped floor with Chrome when it came to overall reliability, page loading reliability, and so on.

    Yeah, I moved back to Firefox for my work browser. Still using Chrome for personal browsing because it syncs with iOS Chrome.

    I don't use iOS Chrome, despite giving it a good chance. The UI is certainly better than Safari and the syncing is nice, but the performance is lacking. I've come across a number of sites (usually JavaScript-heavy) that were so slow that it was completely unusable. One was Microsoft Exchange's web UI, which I use to check my work email on my iPhone/iPad (it's less trouble than dealing with Exchange ActiveSync and having my work stuff intermingling with my personal stuff as a result).

    To be fair, the crappy JavaScript performance isn't Google's fault. Apple doesn't allow app developers to provide their own HTML/JavaScript/etc. implementations, so they have to use the HTML widget provided by iOS itself. Unfortunately, this widget lacks the various JavaScript optimizations that Safari does (probably purposely so), so any third-party browser is going to have performance issues on JavaScript-heavy sites.

    I never notice the performance issues. Even if they exist, syncing is a great enough feature I'm willing to suffer lower performance. Open a link on mobile, sucks to read, open it on desktop!

    Yeah, I can imagine the performance issues can be quite variable between users. Even in my case, most of the sites work fine, but the big issue is when I come across a site that absolutely refuses to load at all. Given my typical mobile browsing habits too, syncing isn't as useful in my case as it may be for yours anyway.
