We used to visit Buca and hadn’t been back for a long time. We decided to go since we were all hungry. We loved their garlic cheese bread, caesar salad and some main course. This of course was pre buy out time. Well, our visit to the Planet Hollywood owned Buca was awful. The garlic cheese bread missed the garlic completely with garlic seasoning instead of the real deal. Our Caesar salad had no anchovies and the dressing tasted like a store bought bottle version. We were extremely unimpressed. We will not return. Another restaurant that moved to cheaper ingredients, lower quality… RIP Buca…

Yea Bruce Willis really raped Bucca. I thought the place was great for a chain. He bought it and its really beginning to suck major. Raise the price 10-20%. Cheapen the food quality/quantity 10-30% and you have successfully raped the hell outa your customers. Could take 7-12 yrs to bankrupt the place or turn it into a crappy olive garden.

Comment on So much for having a 64-bit OS by Jim d

You should be thankful, the 32-bit apps will utilize less RAM. I think an interesting test would be to take an open source project, compile as 32-bit and 64-bit executable, and then benchmark the two.

OMG! You nailed it! In fact, I found your site while trying to google where I could find the wholesaler that made the cake!! We have had it for my son’s birthday since 2001, and his birthday is next week, and I just found out they don’t have it anymore!! I am soooooo bummed I could just scream! If you ever find the commercial bakery that made them, please let me know. I am kicking myself for not paying attention to the label on the box all the other times we bought the whole cake!!!

I am glad I am not the only one who was pissed! Bet you’ll find more of us in the days to come!

i agree about the cake – the best thing about buca was the original version with the best frosting i ever had, the cake itself had an amazing flavor, and the spumoni chips made it excellent – this “new version” is super cheap with this super-cheap whip cream fluff/substitute for frosting, 3 layers of tasteless lite spongecake, and coconut – it doesn’t make sense at all….

Comment on Skittles must be made with lard by tinTitan

I’m gonna try it this weekend, but I’ll probably be making little teabags for the skittles with the coffee filters instead. And I’m not into the pretty bottles.. (they [hopefully] won’t stay full too long) so any steps I can cut out in between is a bonus. Shucks.. I’ll probly wind up just chewing the candies right out of the bag and swigging and mixing the drink in my mouth.

ps: how’d it turn out if Hot Tamales or RedHots were used instead?

” Would be really nice in maps and I suspect that might come soon.”

Unfortunately – nope. Maps is closed source, and we can’t hack on it like we can with the browser.

“Takes forever to boot up (but that was just the first time . . . it has to run some script)”

Yeah, in addition to the script, it has to run dexopt which builds odex files – it takes a long time but makes it faster in the future.
