Things to do in Chicago in December?

I've had Gino's, Lou's, Pequods, Uno, Gordiano's. Overall my favorite is Lou's, the sausage patty layer is da bomb. Pequods is a close second. Uno is dead last. If you want thin crust, check out Piece or Coal Fire.

Class Action Lawsuit Targets Subaru Oil Consumption

Burning oil is not normal. If it does, then the car is a POS.

Web Developers, which code editor do you use on your Mac?

True, but I work locally most of the time and push to dev server. It's faster and you don't have to rely on your internet connection.

Let's talk build quality

Actually, Apple's mass production is an incredible feat. I did like the iPhone4. It's glass and stainless steel which are harder materials than aluminum.

SublimeText with package control. It destroys Coda 2. The only thing Coda 2 has over Sublime is working off the server, but then again this is bad practice anyway.

Let's talk build quality

I think durability is 1 aspect of the entire picture. What I want to talk about in this thread is "...quality pertaining to precision, detail, and advance manufacturing processes". Why is that? Because its much more exciting to talk about and its what pushes boundaries. Devices listed in this...

Let's talk build quality

To me the 5 feels really nice, but it is uncomfortable due to the sharp edges. The same could be said for their MBP line. I wouldn't change the build though as I can live with the edges and it does look slick.

Let's talk build quality

I'm not saying the other devices suck, I'm saying that the mini has a build quality few understand or appreciate. The gaskets are there to merge the two pieces together without having large gaps. The mini not using this gasket is a testament to its very precise manufacturing process. Getting two...

Ipad mini w/ Retina Display review is up

Colors on the mini aren't as accurate as the iPad Air. You can see the results in Anand's color test. Heh, awesome.

Not many reviews (or any) go into deep discussions about build quality. So I felt the need for this thread. To be clear, I'm not talking about durability, we have rugged devices for that. This thread is about quality pertaining to precision, detail, and advance manufacturing processes. I think...

Ipad mini w/ Retina Display review is up

I haven't got my minis yet as I'm waiting for my cellular versions to ship. I used my iPad 3 naked, but I'll be using a case for the minis since it'll be traveling with me.

Coin is a digital card separate from your phone.

Very good review by Anand. Its a shame that the mini's screen isn't as good as the Air, but it didn't stop me from buying two. The build quality on the iPads far surpass everything else out there.

Coin: One Card = All your cards!

The card deactivates when it's been away from your phone from a set amount of time you set in your app. If you have your coin stolen, it's not too much different than having your wallet stolen with all your cards in it. What's NFC support like from vendors? Like .0001%?
