agreed. I love mine.

See, this is why I love my pebble. Solid physical button interface, unshiny e-ink with just fine enough resolution so that the watchfaces are cool. It's gets the basics down and honestly, for email and text messaging, it's tough to leave it at home.

I'd hate to strap an big conspicuous lcd on my wrist, but Pebble has…

Ahh soulful jones. Yahh should check his Health Ledger Piece:

There is much evidence that would say that our penal system itself is causing the kind of inmates we see.

It was referred to earlier, but most first time criminals in our country are for non-violent drug offenses. The nature of a punitive system often lead to all inmate being treated like the scum of the earth,…

I guess that is what happens when you 1) believe part of being a citzen of a country you love is a commitment to improving it and 2) don't believe your own personal experience is the center of the universe.

Again, it seems your only argument is to complete ignore anything that I wrote.

I'm bowing out on this conversation.

So, it's not that nothing is racist, it's that most things aren't? How about you give me concrete example of something that you think is legitimately racist against black people in the modern day. Because in my experience, everyone says racism exists, but no one is willing to say when racism actually happens, baring…

Black slang is defined dialect into itself. It has specific patterns and tendency that are unique to it. It is a direct result of the culture that came from enslaved africans, even though the best most americans can do now is call it "gangsta slang." So, while there may be a question in your mind about it, there is no…

"We" is the culture americans share, defend and, often, repeat.

This isn't about blame. This about admiting the existence of a thing. There is no need to take history so personally.

I don't believe we did this to british people though...

look familiar?

but with your voice. also, just because you don't understand a certain pain does not mean it does not exist.

According to Wikipedia: Innovation is the development of new values through solutions that meet new requirements, inarticulate needs, or old customer and market needs in value adding new ways.

I would say that there is more value is a superiorly executed old idea then there is in a poorly implemented new one, but there…

How is combining services that at one point required two disconnected devices into one not "new?" Company's have been trying to make a solid settop box for years. Google TV, Apple TV, Roku, various cable dvrs...none of them have been able to make a product that was user friendly enough to adopt in mass. And NONE of…

But it's not a gaming console. It's a settop box that plays games. That's what microsoft is positioning this product as and quite frankly its a very smart move. If it works exactly the way it was shown to work in the press conference, there is nothing like on the market.

I love games and would miss the exclusives on a…

I don't know man. I think MS did a great job. With E3 coming next week, there is really no incentive to present games yet. Surely sony is going to be ready with a huge lineup then and MS will need game announcements at that time to compete. On the other hand, like it or not, smart tv functionality is a huge deal! It…

The problem is that you are not recognizing the diversity of Muslim experession. You are define millions of people by there "weakest" members. The perspetive you are taking is the one you have been told and let's face it, the exposure we have in the west to all of the expressions of the muslim faith is pretty limited.

I'd say art is any man made thing that's primary goal is to cause an emotional reaction.

Be conscious of oppression is one thing, but public self critique is another. What is the point of talking about the "idea" of intersectionality if from the same these broader statements that completely dimiss the implications of intersectionality?

At least in black community, women have actually had better employment, education and social mobility then black men. Doesn't this at least have to discussed when talking about what we really mean when we talk about what power is in this country?
