I've used the Web version of TaxAct for a couple years - works well. - Corinne L

I also use a web version of TurboTax. It's kinda nice not to have to buy and load software. - Spidra Webster

Used to use QuickTaxWeb, now use TurboTax Win32 app because a relative always buys the disc and it's good for 20 returns. - Micah

My understanding is that most of the security problems with TurboTax were with the web version (and TT "fixed" the idiot decision regarding Schedule C and the Deluxe version and has promised it'll stay fixed), so I'm sticking with TT, disc version. - walt crawford

it's funny they use that term since most musicians in rock music these days, even the comparatively successful ones, have to work a second job just to pay the bills. - Big Joe Silenced

Ah, Calgary. - Brent Schaus

Actually, it sometimes shuts up people who don't understand how the human immune system works wrt say, a peanut allergy. Well, used to anyway. So there's that. - Micah

"Blomkamp has long insisted that his movies contain no messages, whether philosophical or political. In another Wired story, from July 2013, it’s said that he “identifies as neither liberal nor conservative.” That’s a lily-livered stance, but in Blomkamp’s case I’m actually inclined to believe it’s true; only someone without strong political convictions of any kind could make three movies this ideologically incoherent." - Andrew C (✔)

"The problem with Blomkamp is that whether he’s willing to stand behind them or not, his movies do toy with politically charged imagery and ideas, often in flip and contradictory and sometimes offensive ways. They use the realities of our moment as a backdrop and a jumping-off point: U.S. border policy and immigration in Elysium; poverty in District 9 […] There’s a responsibility that comes with that; if Blomkamp wants to make apolitical movies, he should start setting them on Mars and shooting them on soundstages, instead of pointing a camera at the actual world." - Andrew C (✔)

"I’m not accusing Blomkamp of being some kind of weird crypto-racist; I just think he’s a little tone-deaf and a little self-satisfied, and either doesn’t care or legitimately doesn’t realize how this stuff is going to play." - Andrew C (✔)

"Let’s put aside the glibness it takes for a PR director to respond to a legitimate news inquiry with a sarcastic hashtag, and focus on the fact that what they are saying simply isn’t true. While it is often the case that smaller, unsponsored showcases do not have the money to pay artists, if a corporate sponsor is attached to a show, the expectation is that bands will be paid. Doritos paid Lady Gaga $2.5 million dollars to perform in a vending machine last year, as did Samsung when they brought Prince to the festival in 2013 (and, for that matter, Kanye West the year before)." - Andrew C (✔)

I've managed to get by so far on just air cooling. I don't have very high gaming demands, but I do like a quiet computer. - Andrew C (✔)
