Top 1% still includes people who fail to pay bills sometimes. This is the economy of the 0.01% at most.

Just got two kobos this month, for me and my wife. I had had one back in 2012 and wasn't reading much in recent years, but she had owned a handful of kindles before (never any other eReader) and lost all her book collection after her credit card was cloned and amazon deleted all accounts that had ever used it "for safety".

Her kobo arrived earlier and for a whole week she would come tell me all the amazing stuff she could do on it that she never thought possible. Incredible technological advancements like sending a file directly to it.

I was like "it's OK honey, you're out of that abusive relationship now"

I miss my old dumb TV. I pretty much only use HDMI input but the new TV I've got makes even that so annoying. I often lose 2-3 minutes just to turn it on properly. And then it wants to "setup my new device" every time and make "smart adjustments" to brightness (it always sets it to the max) and other stuff like that that I need to undo manually every time.

Yeah... God once told Peter "whoever kills this Hitler dude goes straight up, no questions asked".

Yep, but not for long.

Yes!

263660769 - that's a number that people could use to talk with me in a specific way when I was 14. Neither my parents nor anyone in my school had that number and the vast majority of them would not know what it was either.

But that's only true because I lived in a very small town in the middle of nowhere in South America. For a similar experience somewhere "more modern", that number would have had to have at least one less digit.

AdSense could have been amazing if it was used to find good ads for the user instead of finding good users for the ad.

This one being fake doesn't prevent a real one from existing.

They are in some extreme cases, but needs to be a lot more extreme than simply trying to destroy the country.

And God forbid you enable captions on the video or something - it'll disable itself every time an ad plays.

Due to budget cuts, it's only story classes now.
