I would agree, though that’s not how most people see it when they get a ticket. I think it’s because there’s sort of a grey area there. Like if the limit is 35, clearly going 100 is wrong (could hurt other people in an accident) but is going 36 in a 35 “morally wrong”? That’s a more difficult question.

Every time I see an article like this, I get more and more disappointed in humanity.

I don’t have kids, so I’ll admit I have no idea what I’m talking about. But I’m not sure I agree with that “no morality its just a traffic ticket” thing. If you remove the morality, and make a simple it’s a rule and you broke it, then that boils down to “it’s wrong because I said so”. As a kid, that was the most…

Does anyone remember the Pokemon Google maps thing from April fools? DID ANYONE WRITE DOWN THE COORDINATES FOR MEW FROM THAT?!?!

Yes.

When opening the old wallet app, it has a card explaining the split in two that’s happening soon. If you click learn more and read the FAQ, it does mention that the old wallet app will get an update and turn into Android pay, and the future Wallet app would be a new app. So as you hypothesised, yes Android Pay will…

That’s what I said. I preordered one last Friday. I hate gamestop but... I need it.

It’s been available for at least a week. I first heard about it last Wednesday, went into a store and preordeeed it last Friday (wasn’t available online last week, only in store for some reason). Guy said I was the first one to preorder one there. Somehow this slipped under the radar and hasn’t been talked about much…

I commented with this same pic when a friend of mine posted an article about this on my Facebook.

I tried the ebook thing, but most of the books I needed didn’t exist, and the few that did all I could find were PDFs that cost the same as the physical ones. Since I couldnt resell them, that meant they effectively cost more than physical books. I was not pleased.

Good article, and I can definitley see why you like yours. They’ve come a long way, and if I didn’t have a tablet it would be a pretty easy decision to get one. I’ve been considering a Chromebook (mostly because I just love gadgets in general), but since I do have a tablet I can’t figure out what I would really use it…

I actually completely agree with everything you’ve said here :)

I think there was just a miscommunication. Paying it off entirely is not what’s bad. Paying it off entirely is allowed, as you said in the article. It definitely would be bad if they didn’t allow that, that would end up being basically the same as the old two year contracts.

As much as my math oriented brain dislikes that, I do accept that rational. However, that’s only valid in the case of paying off the whole remaining balance (which is an option). Just paying a little more each month leaves you still in debt (just a slightly less amount of debt). If you’re goal is to pay it off 6…

In reference to Verizon financing: “You cannot pay extra towards the balance of your phone each month.”

Yes, technically it uses electricity. But it uses so little electricity that it’s irrelevent. If once a month you use the toaster oven instead of the oven when making something small, you’ve saved far more electricity from that one event than you wasted by having the toaster oven plugged in all month.

Oh man, he’s right, I sure made a huge mistake financing my car. He’s right when he says “never”. Even if you can get a great deal on a loan, financing is terrible. All this ZERO PERCENT debt is really destroying my finances. I definitely should have just paid cash.

If you’re taking a large meal that actually fills your oven, and splitting into like 12 small batches for your toaster oven, then you’re doing it wrong. If you’re only using teh toaster oven for small things, then it’s going to save electricity. And it’s not wasting electricity when not in use, generally they don’t…

True, but you also don’t “need” a stove if you have a fire-pit in the backyard. A toaster oven will quickly more than pay for itself in saved time and electricity when you use it instead of the full size oven for samller things.

An electricity hog? Maybe it uses more than a toaster, but if you’re using your whole oven to reheat stuff, that’s using far more electricity (not to mention time) than using a toaster oven would.
