Seems kind of pointless, seeing as there are several charge cables that don't have the data wires anyways. Or just cut the ones in your cable. The other issue is many USB ports and devices require the date to negotiate higher voltages and amperages, and for Apple Devices that require the data to ensure it's an…

Agreed. If these were $40-$60 a pair, like the wiimote and nunchuck were back in the day, one could understand if they weren’t the most durable. But at $80, that extra $20-$40 better be used towards durable parts. Especially as Nintendo gears more towards children and amateurs, the type of people more likely to be…

There was a show, I don’t recall which one (might have been House) where someone connected a hotdog to a cut lamp cord and plugged it in. Current ran from one end to the other, and in a few seconds, hot hot dog.

I agree completely. It seems illogical to have so many fragmented options in the same umbrella. I feel like everything would be so much easier if you took the best features of each system and merge them. It seems like Google is in the habit of throwing out a software or product line every couple years and replacing it…

An old Note II is hardly a fair representative of Android as a whole. Sure a Samsung could be, but something newer. It’s odd, you’d think it’d be cheaper to buy S7s or similar and fix the code, rather than buy 6S and rewrite the apps, on both software and hardware fronts. But since when have governments gone the…

Agreed. How is US Healthcare as equally ineffective as it is overpriced? I think everywhere else in the world healthcare is better, cheaper, or often both. And I can’t imagine their security is any worse. You know at least $499 of that $500 is padding someone’s pocket, and none of it is going towards improving care.

Although that is aa starting good point, people *do* change. You have to remember that as well. In fact, a person who seems unwilling to make concessions or change is probably the biggest warning flag of all.

I think a lot of it depends on the household dynamic. If one spouse works full-time or overtime, and the second doesn’t work or part time, why should the second not be expected to do the brunt of it? If that’s the case, then rewards for the first doing house work would make sense; if I spent all day working and all…

Jeanneee, you obviously don’t see his side. At all. I was in the EXACT same situation when I lived at my girlfriend’s while on break between semesters. She hates clothes on the floor, but it didn’t bother me as long as I could still see bare spots. On the flip, I HATE food messes, whether it be a drop of oil or sauce…

Has anyone looked at the IMOBIE mounts? They make awesome phone-specific mounts. I got two for my Sony Z2, as they have the awesome ability to charge via the Z2’s dock connector, and my phone literally slips in, and instantly is held tight and is charging. Paired with Smart Connect, it’ll also hookup to my Bluetooth,…
