Best idea ever. You have no idea how much I now want this to happen.

Not sure how I feel about this. On the one hand, I’m excited. I already pay for and LOVE Google music, so I effectively get this for free, and it sounds pretty sweet. However, there are a couple reasons I kind of wish it was separate:

My thoughts exactly. I would have thought they would want to avoid the association and find a different name.

Agreed, though I think how many are “on the road” vs how many stolen would be even better.

There are enough problems with this infographic that I simply can’t trust any of it. Which is a shame, cause this would be great information to have in a sharable format like this.

Feature for a 6.1 update to be released in a couple months when the Pixel C comes out, perhaps?

“3DS line of handhelds is due for a major generational advance.”

I wasn’t being serious. But it is frustrating that I have to pay money in now to support others when I may not get the same support back when I’m older. Obviously ideally I’d like them to make adjustments to the system and find ways to sustain it long term so everyone can benefit from it.

The average near retirement household has only 14.5k? That’s kind of scary. That’ll get them through what, 1 year of retirement?

Yeah it’s really frustrating. I almost wish it would just fully collapse now, so if I’m not going to benefit from it then I could stop paying taxes on it and have more money to save in my own retirement account.

If you get paid bi-weekly, sometimes that solves it for you. December is a three paycheck month for me, so I’ll use the extra check for holiday expenses, and then the put the rest of it in my savings.

I’m confused. Didn’t we already solve this with the automatic?

Yeah, sliding into the wall would be ideal. We had some doors that did that in the house I grew up in, it was really convenient.

I have sliding doors on my current closet and I hate them. I would gladly take bi fold doors in a heartbeat.

I have old epipens I need to get rid off. My pharmacy won’t take them, I don’t think trash or toilet is good for these... They’re a lot harder to get rid of than regular meds.

I always laughed when people insisted on completely disabling the GPS on their phone, and then going into the settings and turning it on when they need to use maps. GPS has always been fine to leave on, because when it’s not being used it is off anyway. It’s not always searching for a signal the way WiFi does when…

I will say the same thing here I said on the post he wrote a while ago that you mentioned. A Swiffer is not a replacement for a vaccuum. You still use that on carpet, and either that or a broom on hard floor. Then you use a swiffer, as a replacement for mild mopping. Even in a clean house, the kitchen and bathroom…

I think Google’s new Nexus policy is 2 years of major updates, not 18 months. Presumably this will apply to Pixel as well, now that they’re making a Pixel Android device.

Keeping up with the Dinklebergs*

So true. It bothers me that so many people blindly vote for their party without learning anything about the actual candidate. I tend to lean towards one party, but I still pay attention to who I’m voting for and will consider the other side too.
