"There was, back when I still had a roommate with one, no Plex app for the Wii U. A mobile web interface would have worked much better than the heavyweight desktop UI it shoehorned into the browser." - dgw

"Sounds like a lack of system or video RAM. The tab doesn't reload because it's merely being redrawn." - dgw

"I feel compelled to point out even this long after the fact that 40Mbit/s = 5MB/s, not 8MiB/s. A byte has 8 bits in it." - dgw

"Really, the phone should be packed better. Inside another box. With padding. Lots of padding. But this is really unusual for FedEx. I rarely see any package damage from UPS too, but most of my UPS packages come from Amazon so maybe they're more careful with those." - dgw

"Same happens to me with Angry Birds Transformers (again, no judgy). Started immediately after OTA from 5.0.1 (LRX22C) to 5.1 (LMY47M)." - dgw

"This is a real problem. I'm afraid I have no solution to offer, because I get this too. :/" - dgw

"I don't know if it's still the case, but at one point there was a big deal made about the Library of Congress archiving all tweets straight from the Streaming API. That's one way something could stick around after being deleted." - dgw

"I'm even more confused now. Would previously running a kernel with tap-to-wake enabled leave behind bits that would keep it enabled even after flashing over the system, boot, and recovery partitions? O.o" - dgw

"I got one off eBay, after comparing the markings in the photo. Granted, product photos on eBay can't necessarily be trusted, but seller gd_luck turned out to be good luck for me; the new and old battery labels matched up perfectly. New battery is sometimes reticent to actually charge past 93%, but that could be software that hasn't adapted to the new pack yet. Sometimes it goes to 100%, sometimes not; it's moody." - dgw

"Mother of ions, I thought mine was bad when I noticed that the phone could spin like a top one day. Swapped out (along with the microUSB port while I was in there) and back to normal, but the old battery was nowhere near that swollen. For the record, I had trouble with the exact same corner." - dgw

"There's a thought. Only had this thing for a day, so not sure how that might be done, but I might have to explore it this weekend." - dgw

"I suspected as much. At least DG2 changed it to a toggle, so the built-in Chroma toggle function works." - dgw

"iPhone-only product launches are the biggest non-starter. * yawn *" - dgw

"1-2 days? I guess most people have much less than 3TB in their initial set. At any rate, my connection can handle at least 4MB/s up and 10MB/s down, so cranked up to maximum performance it's estimating 30GB/day or so now. That's better; guess the initial estimate is conservative." - dgw

"Tentatively (I just installed the client and it's still scanning my drives), ^ this. Backblaze is accepting an average of about 1.5GB/s per second according to these stats, but the client says that my backup should run at about "2 GBytes/Day". So I get about 1.3 seconds' worth of transmission time per day? Seems low, unless it's a deliberate plan to keep users from backing up too much data in their "unlimited" backup plans." - dgw

"I just cashed in the remaining time on my CrashPlan subscription and installed Backblaze for the very reason that the Java client often brought my system to its knees, both during backup (I/O & CPU) and during scanning (mostly I/O)." - dgw

"The 2013 N7 definitely has touch issues. I've taken to transferring my account to my Nexus 4 temporarily when I really need to FC something, and my long term goal is to upgrade to a Nexus 6 or 9." - dgw

"And a month later, it's up to $9.95. This does not look good." - dgw
