theirs a book i really want that just came out and for some weird reason i cant get the ebook in the US only the UK but i could buy the physical book and have it shipped and arrive weeks from now. anyone know how to get the ebook?

If you know someone in the UK, you could send them some money and have them make the purchase for you, then send the ebook to you afterward.

Use a proxy so it seems you're in the UK, buy it, download it, then transfer it over to a device if necessary?

Small question: Did Gig change his sig? I don't think I recall seeing mister Kipling in there before.

Yes. Yes he did :P Gig has many places for his sigs, and Mr. Rudyard is one of them.

I have a touchphone(?). Huawei Y300-0151.
...Gravity claimed part of the screen by having it smashed--or at least how I know 'smashed' = 'glass is broken but not really fractured away!'. I can still move my finger on it, and the cracks just give a really bad image of how the state of the glass is, but everything is working as normal.

Is it possible to fix this without me having to shift all data off the phone? I'm panicky about it. :'( Also any help suggested?

Well if the screen itself is working fine and the touch capability isn't impeded or wonky then it's probably just the outer protective glass that broke, those are usually cheap and easy to replace because they're meant to be expendable like that. It might vary depending on your area. But if it's just that, quick googling found a replacement part on amazon for just shy of 8 bucks.

8$ translates into more than 500 pesos here .___.

So...question on that.
Are those outer screens easily bought in a phone...repair(?) shop or something? :D

Well probably, again, it depends on the area, but your best bet is to check out a few places and ask around, because unless it's a wildly popular phone they'll have to order the parts from somewhere themselves so there's bound to be some waiting involved.

Edit: If you leave your rained-on washing out long enough and the sun comes out and dries it, will it be clean?
Or will it be all nasty and mildew-scented?

Depends on the material and how strong the sun is.

It's had that for a good long while now... maybe six months?

Should I have a cheese sandwich or pasta w/sauce for dinner?
I know pasta would be a more substantial meal, but I'm kinda craving a slightly-toasted cheese sandwich for some reason. Thoughts?

Maybe I could have both, but that would be greedy.

Probably too late but I'd say the cheese sandwich, toasted cheese sandwiches are amazing and probably healthier than a full on pasta dinner.
That said, I'm going to cook up some past with tomato sauce for breakfast now.

Consulted wiki and figured out the problem the same day, went to sleep at 6 AM, but happy.
Thank you for caring anyhow.

Why does my nose run when I'm cold? I could probably look up the answer, but I'm too lazy.
