here's something that helps me, as far as regular bills go ...

1. setup two checking accounts, one for payroll deposit and one for billpay
2. take each bill and split it in half (if you get paid bi-weekly)
3. setup an automatic transfer for each payroll in the amount of half of each bill
4. each payroll deposit will then deposit half of your required bill for the next month, so you don't have to track everything from one checking account
5. setup automatic payment for your bills from the billpay account
6. (obligatory) ????
7. (obligatory) profit!

everything else i usually withdraw cash for - estimated amount for gas, bi-weekly disposable income, any other petty expenses. any leftovers go toward credit card expenses; if i'm planning to buy on credit, i'll transfer the amount from my savings account or payroll checking account into the billpay account, so i'm not surprised at the end of the month.

this allows me to maintain my bills and credit rating mostly worry-free. as per usual, ymmv.

gizmodo lost a lot of their best talent over the past few months. 'whineyness' is the correct term for the general feel of most random articles now.
this picture adequately conveys my apathy toward any gizmodo article any more.
pasties like these? they're all over in the northern michigan region (probably other midwestern areas also). it's practically the official food of yoopers.

i love me some pasties.
here's a question i haven't found an answer to yet: why not t-mobile and at&t nexus s phones? i mean, it probably won't be long before the app is either released officially, or hacked unofficially, but still - por qué?
there's some work being done on galaxy s/nexus s phones right now which could result in dual-booting. it's based on the particular chipset (hummingbird), which i think has relations to the iphone's chipset. it's based on a custom bootloader which is used in place of samsung's bootloader on these phones

not too likely, but we could possibly see a dual-/tri-bootable phone. one can only hope (and hang onto my nexus s ...)

EDIT: found the proper article
only if you reply and also have a star.
sounds like a driver issue, firstly. look up drivers for the eris, and make sure they're installed on the computer. secondly, custom roms are pretty well polished for older devices like the eris - iirc, kaosfroyo is a popular one.
HEY-OH!!

I just sold my Nexus S (sim tray not working), and HTC Desire within 12hrs of each other. This leaves me smartphone-less.

So ... Need some advice - HTC HD7S, Desire HD (Inspire 4G), or Nexus S.

I'm leaning toward the Nexus S, but would also like to give WP7 a go-round. Desire HD is in the running because it's a powerhouse of a phone, and can dual-boot roms; I love me some of that action. Price point for each is around $400 used. #whitenoise
'sup bud. reading through jonathan strange and mr. norrell. just finished american gods a week ago for the whitenoise book club (link here)

that being said, good morning/afternoon/evening to you all! #whitenoise
that's how hp7.2 does it. i watched it in 3d, and was impressed with the restraint shown to keep it from having spells wizzing by your head. it's very comparable to ts3 and avatar in that it lends depth to the screen.
jason chen, though i fail to see that as relevant.
"[...] which actually gives more power to the users by allowing them to focus on their work instead of screwing around with their machine to make it do what they want"

i'll take the latter over the former any day. different strokes, i suppose.
i went with a friend to buy a '05 honda civic. we're both early 20s, and probably looked like suckers. i'd checked out kelley blue book and NADA values on it, and gotten a fair idea of what it was worth. i told the guy what i'd like to pay for it ($6000 base, plus whatever fees). he came back at me with an offer of the car's original sale price ($7000), plus a couple fees. sure, he'd knocked out approximately 600 in fees, but that wasn't good enough.

long story short, we finally talked him down to $6750 with fees, and a $100 'commission' if i paid the loan off in 30 days (which i did). gave that salesman a run for his money. i think they made about $100 above the value listed on NADA.
work mostly. getting more responsibility kinda sucks sometimes. better pay grade though :D #whitenoise
that'll probably be right when i switch to first shift ... murphy's law and all. #whitenoise
'sup bitchezz. it's been a while. #whitenoise
