I can't speak for the paid app because I tested the free one, but I was able to get it to work. I also didn't follow the instructions. :-P When I tried it again and did it this morning, I noticed it was asking for swift movements. When I used it the first time I was careful, moderately slow, and gentle with the… Read more

Right, I forgot about After Effects. That's a good point. I could see a justification for buying a Mac Pro of these if you're a heavy AE user. Read more

Like people are saying, it definitely sounds like a panic attack or something similar. I've had a few minor-to-medium panic/anxiety attacks, and they never feel like an attack. It just feels like my body is having this reaction and my rational self is sitting inside thinking, "huh, this is bizarre." I'm never… Read more

I've heard some of the newer ones do have the problem. But that might just be old stock getting mixed in with the new since OUYA has said there is absolutely no designation. But either way, I was really happy to find this solution because I have the Kickstarter controllers and I have never used them mostly due to… Read more

It means you use part of it in one portion of the recipe, then the other part later. Read more

The Mac Pro is smaller out of the box. It becomes a lot less small when you have to attach a ton of peripherals to it because you can't expand the thing and you have to hook up a bunch of external stuff. You can definitely use the machine without doing that, so it certainly can be smaller, but if you're doing… Read more

On the audio side it's just Logic. On the video side I think it's just FCP X (no thank you) and Premiere. I am not 100% certain Avid hasn't added support, but I can't find evidence that they have. So my point wasn't that there is no support for dual GPUs on the Mac Pro but that you have to fall into Apple's narrow… Read more

I don't think we presented them as turn-key solutions. Before any of the builds, there's a section discussing the difficulty involved. :) Read more

I always use a wrist protector because palm sweat can erode the paint on the machine. That's the worst. I keep the laptop in a sleeve when transporting it. That helps reduce the likelihood at dents. I suppose a hard case would work better, but I don't like adding the bulk. The main issue for me is the keyboard. … Read more

Yeah, dumbphones last forever. You'd think they could make smartphones as reliable... Read more

I think the most important lesson I learned in my 20s (not that they're particularly far behind me, fortunately) is this: no matter how hard things get or what horrible shit happens to you, nobody's going to cut you any slack. If you have to grieve, you need repair your torn up life, or you're not perfect because you… Read more

It's funny how some people argue a decade and others argue that five years is too long. :) Read more

That is a lot more than a five year lifespan, and I'd say you're lucky you've made it as long as you have and will probably make it longer. It really depends on use, but statistically most laptops give out at around three years. I have the same aluminum 13" MacBook as a backup/guest machine and it's in fine shape,… Read more

Yeah, I'm not sure why they don't have it working in more cities. I can't imagine it runs on a properietary database. Perhaps they want to make sure they've got guides people can follow for each city? I bet it'll expand pretty quickly, though. It's going to need to in order to gain enough users. Read more

That's a good one Read more

Yes, precisely. :) Read more

It's more of a thing you want to have around in case you do, not because you do all the time. :) Read more

I could not agree with you more. Read more

It's also really good for programmers because they're staring at text all day and it's much sharper. Read more

For some things. If you're playing games on it, yeah, you should probably avoid it at the moment. I wouldn't say it's pointless for everyone, though. Graphic and video work is fine on a good 4K monitor. Read more
