I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

Is anyone else having issues with iPhone podcast app sleep setting? This is the second time it's happened. I put on a podcast to fall asleep to, and set it to sleep at end of current episode, only to have it playing when I wake up several hours later. It works fine on my iPad, but that's running iOS8. The iPhone is the most up-to-date iOS.

What made it weirder, is waking to hear NoiseDesign talking to me (he had a guest appearance on The Cue podcast). No offense ND, it was just weird to hear your voice first thing in the morning.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I wonder if iOS 9.1 today will help that?

All is well that ends in pizza.

That reminds me. For those with iOS 9.x who miss the iOS 8 keyboard:

Go to to Settings > General > Accessibility > Keyboard and turn off the toggle for Show Lowercase Keys.

Any thoughts on this for my Mom's new computer? [link] Pretty basic use - but i also know that windows is going to continuously add patches which will slow int down. How will this work in four years when OS patches & App software upgrades nearly double the resources used. Is this hard disk fast enough for the long term?

I'm going to also get a quote from a basic box shop.

For 50 bucks more, this seems like a better deal from Fry's. [link] - thoughts?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I definitely go the Core I3 over the older Intel tech, but I'd be worried about Lenovo's recent history of stuffing all sorts of spyware/adware on their machines.

Here's a similar ASUS core I3 for twenty bucks more. And here's an ACER core I5 for $20 less than the Lenovo.
