    I'm getting over a cold, it's possible that the vertigo is related to that. I feel better today. Not 100% but better nonetheless.

    Why didn't they just enhance Hangouts with new features? If I had to guess this will be another abandoned Google project in a couple years.

    I haven't been able to replicate this consistently, but sometimes when I click the Home link I get logged out. Has anyone else seen this?

    I tested this on mobile and it works there as well. The icon is pretty small though, if you have fat fingers you'll never get it to work.

    Looks good. Does this include the add-on I requested? How many themes can you install? This one looks interesting: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/flat-awesome-pixelexit-com.3409/

    I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think Xenforo supports "New Posts" that this version of vBulletin does. It looks like there is an addon which may work for this though. https://xenforo.com/community/resources/new-posts-and-threads.4559/ Is this something you would be able to add? Otherwise, I...

    Think of Accenture or Deloitte. I guess you could call it "rented out", but for the most part at my company and in my practice we are staffed onto larger project teams from 2-30+ people doing projects or building products for companies of all size. Disclaimed: I don't work at Accenture or...

    Yes, it is. I work for a consulting company and as I mentioned above bonuses are very common.

    Something Random

    My bonus is 100% tied to my practice and company's financial performance. More specifically if we are able to hit revenue and net profit forecasts. I know what the amount is going to be in advance and thankfully we've gotten 100% the last 3 years.

    Potential Upgrades to My New "Vomit Box"

    I wouldn't worry about it at all, I doubt that this is all that much data that it will have much of an effect on the longevity of your SSD. Moving /var to a mechanical disk will make a lot of other things much slower, so I wouldn't do it on a system that I want to be responsive.

    Some of the models appear to have front and rear calipers others just a rear brake. I'd try to get one with both front and rear. I think you should go to a local bike store and try out a similar bike before buying anything.

    I wouldn't want to ride on city streets with just a coaster brake. I'd look for something with calipers.

    Agreed, get a single speed bike. Way less to go wrong and perfect for commuting or riding around the city, unless there are a ton of hills near you.

    I wouldn't buy a cheap bike at Walmart, it will cost you more to keep it working than if you buy something slightly better. Try http://bikesdirect.com/ -- it looks horrible, but I know people that have bought bikes on there.

    Any chance you can just link to Youtube instead? It messes up the mobile version of SF, breaking all anchor links, so when I click on a post to go directly to the newest it pops me to the top.
