There were a lot of people buying Game Pass in other regions where it was cheaper, but I’m pretty sure I remember reading that they cracked down on that.

Agree, in most cases, although there are some restaurants my wife and I order from which don’t have drive through, and I don’t mind paying someone else to assume the risk of entering / waiting inside the restaurant where diners are necessarily unmasked, particularly because my wife takes immunosuppressants. I consider…

*Whoops, that asterisk was meant to connect with a quick note to say that tips are not optional, at all. I can sometimes, maybe, see a fringe case for not tipping in other industries, outside of pandemic conditions, but with the risk food delivery drivers are taking now, and for as little as they make from the apps…

I’ve realized that a lot of things about this pandemic have hardened me against humanity at large, but I don’t want to be someone that comes off as an asshole to the typical observer. Please read this comment accordingly, if you can.

*Please take the comment below with no sarcasm*

Yeah, I agree with most of these—and in most cases can’t see someone using them without at least a conscious disregard for offense caused—but some are questionable. I think “crippled” in a technical context is about as common as the original. News articles often talk about companies having production capacity crippled…

This reminds me of a feature that was added to Winamp near the end of its active development life. After adding your entire music library, it could optionally analyze them and create an internal database of identifiers like BPM, tonal range/patterns, and probably some other things too complicated for my brain, and…

If your therapist is John Stamos, better hope he doesn’t like you.

Is there a legal or technical reason for not including direct links in the “Where to Stream” portion of each entry in this list? I’ve read many other such lists that linked to the videos’ individual streaming URLs. For those which are on Prime Video, you can even generate an AA referral link, although I supposed doing…

If I recall correctly, the biggest commentary in The People Under the Stairs was one highlighting the plight of unfair housing practices used to subjugate minorities. Sorry to say that’s at least as germane today as it was at the time of this film’s release.

I am so appreciative to see a sane article about sensible food ideas that are actually useful and informative, as respite from the culinary madness and religious bigotry with which Claire Lower constantly bombards the Lifehacker front page. Heck, you even included a vegan recipe in an article ostensibly about milk!…

Pepper in Jello makes more sense to me. Seems reasonable as a complement to the shrimp and olives.

Stop it Claire. Please, just stop.

I have definitely been watching one of the Disney-made Star Wars movies and thought an alien voice sounded like Hamill, but looked it up to find the voice want credited to him. I wish I could remember, or that I had tweeted at him after noticing it.

You should really credit the originating source for your header image (Kurzgesagt) rather than just broadly attributing it to “YouTube.” That’s kind of like using a screenshot from M*A*S*H and attributing it to “Television.”

I love it when people share photos on content like this, and your project looks great! Thanks for sharing and kudos on a well-planned and well-executed home improvement.

I keep getting notifications about replies to this article, but they’re not showing up when I come here. But the previews in notifications tell me the theme in those replies is to state that streaming from your own Xbox is possible, so:

So, I’ve been following Xbox Cloud Streaming closely, and am an Insider who has had access and has been play-testing for something like a year now.

Either you don’t understand what irony is, or you think I’m claiming to be an expert, which I don’t think I indicated in my comment.
