Frankly, I don’t mind going the subsidized route — I probably would prefer it. I’m midway through my two-year cycle though, so I get to wait a year to see how it works itself out.

I’m in the same spot with my 6 Plus. But if you get the phone from Apple, all you’re doing is switching out the Sim Card, right? It shouldn’t(?) affect the account.

As I’m one of those folks w/ a grandfathered unlimited data plan on AT&T, I’m particularly sensitive to upsetting the apple cart.

If I’m at the midway point of a contract with AT&T, would getting a leased phone from Apple affect that contract in any way?

Where’s the tipping point on 24 months? I’m an iPhone guy with a 16gig 6 Plus, so $300 (750 full) up front. If I were buying the same phone again today, how does the math work?

Considering how far the technology has come with multi-touch (Specific to Apple Trackpads, I guess?) I wouldn’t necessarily say that a mouse is better than a trackpad as a rule.

If you’re making all of these sacrifices, how are you then living a “rich, modern” lifestyle?

Yes, this list is updated every couple of months, but they keep the same post and comments.

I guess I hadn't unfollower on Twitter, but hey ... thanks!

Oh God, I hate PFT with a passion that burns like infinite suns.

I get that it is fun to hate on Snyder, but this post is the kind of reason I rarely visit Deadspin these days.

Huh. I didn't know that. I haven't had any trouble with Siri recognizing me since I switched it (her?) to Australian.

Just out of idle curiosity ... would there be anything in Private Internet Access's process that would specifically block/disable torrents from TPB?

It's really a function of the quality of the charger. I'm very specific to get a 5v, 10-watt charger, and I've never had a problem since.

Installed Wunderlist because of this post, but didn't get around to using it until now because SDCC got in my way.

One of the main reasons I continue to use Adium is specifically because it supports Growl. In fact, the only program in my daily workflow that doesn't is Tweetbot, and it drives me up the wall.

Yes Growl. I still find it considerably better than OSX's built in Notifications. In fact, if TweetBot was plugged into Growl, I would be able to completely turn Notifications Off.

I prefer Alfred to Quicksilver and Transmission to uTorrent, but this is a really good list. Other than those two, I use probably ever recommended app (if I have a need in that particular category).

Good for you! I did Couch to 5K this spring and loved it. I did have that feeling of impending "I've got to figure out something new" when the first race was over, and I've shifted to a combination of Treadmill/Rowing Machine/Track Running three times a week. One of my big disappointments in the C25K program — with…
