It is good, but I expected Hank to turn sides too, becioming envious of the money Walt had made and the two of them building a mega empire meth business.

Yes! 
Really well written show, interesting character development and refreshing story line.
Also in this particular show, I love those really silent moments that tells a lot. Many episodes has character with no/few lines and they still manages to deliver ground breaking performance. In recent episodes where Jeese (almost) doesn't speak anything for 2 episodes and you still know what he is thinking / going to do. And it's very interesting to see how Skyler's character reacts according to the situation while always covering it's back.
And it's been a while after The Sheild when you root for a bad guy (I still think Dexter is not that bad compared to Mr. White or Vick Mackey).
If you look at Breaking Bad, The Sheild, Ray Donovan or Mad Men, all the major characters have really difficult to handle wives (more difficult that the main villain).

next one builds. You lose all this when the next episode is there instantly.
I'm gonna disagree--being fully aware that I'm only speaking for myself.
I find that I tend to forget important details when I have to wait a week (or more) between episodes, and I also find myself enjoying TV shows a lot more when binge-viewing.
I've also tried alternating between the two viewing methods for the very same shows, and I've come to the same conclusion. So these days I let the episodes pile up until the last one of a given season is broadcast, then I'll go through it all in a couple of evenings.
One of the side-benefits of binge-viewing, IMO, is that you make up your mind more quickly as to whether a new show is worth watching or not. I might put up with a so-so show if I only get to watch an episode a week, whereas if I feel sitting through a couple of episodes back-to-back is tedious, then I find it's easier to decide to move onto something else. There's enough material out there that I don't need to spend what little free time I have watching bad TV.
[edit]
All that being said--I haven't seen a single episode of Breaking Bad (yet), but it's definitely on my list.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I love the fact that he got his IP blocked from Wolfram|Alpha and had to appeal it because of this week's question and locked up his Mathmatica program while trying to compute it all.
Imagine being the admin tasked with reading that appeal, it would make my day.

If the admin doesn't have a clue who Randal is then said admin really shouldn't be working for WA.

I agree but the reason he had to appeal did amuse me. It's early in the morning and I am a tad stressed. I could use some amusing anecdotes to lighten the mood and jokes in the SB just don't do it anymore.
I'm surprised this hasn't happened to him before. You'd imagine that they would just have his IP on a white list for this exact reason.
|

I am actually wondering why he has no Pro account at WA.

Excellent story, thanks, Nagy.

I just noticed that my screenshot functionality on my Galaxy Nexus doesn't work anymore.  The last screenshot I took was on 4 July. So I guess one of those updates between now and then seems to have broken it. I don't need to take screenshots often but there are some cases where saving a website as a screenshot comes in handy (especially if you need that data where you don't have access to the data network).
Anyone else who had such a problem and knows an easy fix? To take out the fun: Suggesting iOS, Windows Phone or any other OS is NOT a fix 
The only "solution" I found was suggesting to do a factory reset of the phone but I'm not that desperate yet 
Note: I'm running Android 4.3

You forgot one.
Use another phone and take a photo.

I don't know how to take screenshots on my Android phone.
I know it works though cos often of a morning I take a screen shot of the alarm going off as I fumble for the snooze button.

On the Galaxy Nexus, it is hit the power and volume down buttons at the same time and hold.

Power button snoozes the alarm so I guess that is probably what I'm doing.

Hmm, that's odd. I have a Galaxy Nexus as well and just took a screen shot. I'm running 4.2.2 (because Verizon is SLOW getting updates out to its customers), sounds like they broke it between that and 4.3.
Are you running an official version or something like Cyanogen?
|
|
|
|
|
Official Version. I have an unbranded version. So it's the plain Android OS on it. (This exactly because the carriers usually are very slow at getting the updates out to the customers ) didn't mind paying a bit more for the phone as I'm able to choose other benefits when extending my contract resulting more or less with the same costs counting phone + contract costs.
I've noticed that the usual combination of pressing the power + volume down button is indeed recognized. (As it does neither lock the phone nor change the volume). However it seems like no action is mapped to the combination...
