Apparently these are a lot more powerful than Raspberry Pi's. And in 2014, they were $100. Maybe there's a $50 version now or during sales, if not less :D.

Pretty sure the PogoPlugs are both bricked to the point of it just being too much of a hassle to fix since I was still new to anything beyond PHP and CSS back when messing with them :P. #@to_buy #interesting #plug_computers #pub

Apparently, Can downgrade iPad 2 or iPhone4S (this might seriously interest me, to iOS 6.1.3). This is before the redesign that began with iOS 7, right? Should probably be a lot better to be able to use the device :D #interesting #jailbreaking #pub

"When it came time for me to take over Pinboard, I vowed to continue my grandfather's committment to Eastern European craftsmanship and traditional Polish customer service.

 As you can see, growth in data stored has been fairly linear and the number of active users has crept up to the 25K mark. I changed the business model of the site in January from a one-time signup fee to a recurring fee, but has this affected income? It doesn't feel like it. Possibly it has. I really need to look into it. I am a terrible businessman.

_My boi!_

On Sept. 11, 2007, two rap heavyweights went head to head in a sales battle and changed hip-hop forever.

"So needless to say when that exchange was interrupted by my cell—with Kanye West and Plain Pat on the other end, asking where the party was at—things started to look up for the kid. To be clear, this was not a normal happening. I’d known Kanye about five years and written about him a half dozen times at that point—some of which he liked, and some of which he didn’t. We’d just collaborated on his third COMPLEX cover, an issue he’d guest-edited, but we’d never, like, hung out. In fact, at that point, we had barely ever talked on the phone, but I think I’d called him to congratulate him earlier in the day. Maybe he just hit me ’cause my number was in his “recent calls.” Who knows. Either way I was surprised."

AND

" Like, they both dropped albums in 2005 without drawing a single comparison. In fact, I remember arguing with Kanye, who I was profiling for a VIBE cover story, during a session for “Heard ’Em Say,” at Grandmaster Recorders, L.A., about The Massacre. VIBE had given it a three and I was defending the lukewarm review. Kanye was adamant that, “Any album with ‘In My Hood’ is a four!!!!”"

_Interesting, the change. I mean it makes sense. I don't know why people get shat on so much for what they said before. Time and life changes_ #kanye #introspection #$top_reads #interesting #interviews #music #toread #pub

Although it happened just a few weeks ago, I have a feeling that listening to Recovery for the first time is something I’ll long remember. Sitting in the passenger seat of my best friend’s car sometime around 2 AM, surrounded by open road and windows, I popped the freshly burnt CD-R into the tray with tired anticipation. The album had just leaked earlier that day, and though we felt spent after some eight or nine hours in the studio recording our own stuff, waiting till tomorrow for new Em w #reviews #introspection #interesting #toread #pub

"Consider actress Anna Kendrick, who has publicly bemoaned the effect of RBF on her life. “When she was younger, directors would say, ‘Why don’t you smile more, you need to smile more, you don’t seem like you’re very happy,’” Macbeth said. “That’s something that’s expected from women far more than it’s expected from men, and there’s a lot of anecdotal articles and scientific literature on that. So RBF isn’t necessarily something that occurs more in women, but we’re more attuned to notice it in women because women have more pressure on them to be happy and smiley and to get along with others.” #gender_equality #gender_roles #interesting #quirky #sociology #society #culture #norms #pub
