$150 for life sounds interesting. Thanks for letting me know about that. I totally stopped paying any attention to Doc Martens when they started producing shoes in China and still charged the old prices.
I would imagine the advantage is to the people living near the cotton field more than the wearer. When we lived in Georgia as kids my bother always had "asthma" when they sprayed the cotton to kill it. Growing cotton is nasty business. As an army family we moved a lot and no where else did he ever have "asthma". I call it that as it is what the DR claimed it was.
Looks like they let you customize what the shoe looks like, which seems like the wrong thing to be customizing. Making shoes from molds of the wearers feet would have been at least interesting to someone.
I cannot get a pair of sneakers to make it more than a year tops and dress shoes never past a couple. I am not buying walmart shoes here, so a shoe that lasts 4 years would be a huge money saver.
I used to buy doc martins, but paying $100+ for a chinese made shoe is crazy talk.
I would also suggest contacting HULU they seem to be making lots of deals with Web and indie film makers. I watch that stuff on hulu so they get some money.
You do pay for the shipping up front, but you are paying for 2 day shipping. Tjhat is normally more expensive so you need to compare to that. I paid $3 more for a monitor because I have amazon prime. For me the $3 and the $1 portion of amazon prime (I make at least 80 orders a year, office mates share my prime and pay me for it) was worth it and cheaper than the $7 three day shipping at the other vendor.
So what you are saying is they are willing to ship it to you faster if you pay more? Which is exactly what they say.
Note that it is UPS that normally "ages" these packages. You can tell by checking its tracking information and seeing that UPS holds the package in one place for days.
Apple still does not have subscription based streaming, so what are you talking about? $0.99 is fine if I want to own it, but to stream a tv show should be subscription or maybe $0.25 per episode.
It already works on android. Amazon streaming uses flash. I just streamed some top gear on my Droid(overclocked, only to 800mhz). There was a little bit of stuttering but it was watchable. Go try it!
I will also probably test it at 1.2Ghz to see if that gets rid of stuttering.
As a prime member this is great news. If they expand the available titles I plan on canceling netflix. I will make sure I tell them too. I also just streamed a show on my android phone.
You need a cli to do anything useful on windows too. Just most people never do much of anything useful. Try renaming 1000 files at once based on a regex from the Windows GUI.
Most people have unsupported windows boxes full of malware and spyware, the fact that you deride his choice to make sure his grandmother does not suffer that way is pretty sad.
Please remember parts of our country are north of parts of yours. Please also remember that for some of us 32F is a tropical day in the winter. 32F would be a big improvement over the temp right now for me.
The pipes often are going to go through areas colder than the home. Heck, I lived for two weeks in a house that probably never got up to 40. Blankets, coats, that sort of stuff helps.

Dammit! I meant "their bedrooms", of course.
How about we stop legislating what I am allowed to consume as an adult?
How about those supposed small government types stop worrying about what people ingest and what people do in there bedrooms.
So broken glass, sharp rocks etc, how do you deal with those?

Just look at the price, that will give you a ceiling anyway.
What brand was that?

Mine normally takes 3-5 days, I also order lots of cables and things under $25 which is our super saver shipping limit.
I watched for 5-10 minutes, battery still at 90%.
Have you called them?

What an odd definition of just works, seems like you mean just works if they decide to support it.

The PS3 has a flash player, when I get home I will see if it can stream these.
I hear tell of some torrent of bits that can be used over the series of tubes we call the internet when content creators fuck up like that.
You can't install flash on an AppleTV?
Wow, that's pretty fucking sad and is why I have a real computer hooked to my tv. Also means I do not have to pay for hulu plus.

Yeah, a real tragedy that you have to go switch the side the buttons are in the settings.

My mistake I had thought all states had a Do Not Disconnect policy.
