Rated Teen - Mild story and character development.
And you know where that goes: Mild public interest.
You guys missed a spot: You can attach a ho to this thingamajig
This can go either way:
Either NASA has a male astronaut lunar recreation plan or this self-conscious tractor likes big butts.
So now males with big hands not only have more inches under the belt but can also work with bigger screens.
Life just isn't fair.
"It's an end to the routine of "Highlight, copy, CTRL-T, paste, Enter"
With the "Drag de Go" extension, the routine narrows down to Highlight, drag anywhere on page
Actually I get by just fine without any password manager.
I "generate" passwords through a process I call "Indian 1337" :), which goes likes this:
1. The Indian part: I pick something that happened recently. for example. Let's say my password at work just expired and I need to replace it. And let's say someone brought home-made brownies to work. So "brownies" is my starting point (good 8 letter word without repetition).
2. The 1337 part: obfuscate that word using 1337, which are fairly easy to remember. so "brownies" turns into "Br0wn1e5" (it's a zero, not an 'o'), et voilà! a hard password that's easy to remember.

For all sorts of web-mail accounts I rarely use I re-use passwords to keep the password count manageable. And I never use any "remember my password" feature - or else I'll forget them :).
It's sort of a rip-off of Crimsonland's typo-shooter game mode. This game mode isn't available right from the start, you need to earn it :).
1. Does Dexpot support multiple screens properly? Couldn't find that vital info on their web site - it's in German.

2. Is there an English version? All the screenshots are in German too.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
