I work for a company that issues exclusively Apple technology. I like my MacBook Pro alright (even though it’s the 2012 model). My iPad is fine. What I’d love is for Apple to quit trying to be the drool-worthy company they once were. Their overall philosophy and market dominance has taken a dip ever since Steve Jobs…

In a kind of fun throwback moment, Los Angeles is now going mad with Hamilton fever, with celebrities crawling all over Lin-Manuel Miranda for a ticket. It seems like just yesterday that New Yorkers were blocking traffic for a glimpse of him. Ah, memories.
Remember when Ellen DeGeneres was a judge for, like, a week?
I really hope they find someone soon because there is a worrisome shortage of singing competitions on TV today and I’d hate to have fewer than three dozen options.
It doesn’t seem to. The beauty is that it’s only contacting a given spot on the blade for less than a second at a time because you’re pulling it across the belt. The recommended pull speed is 1" per second. I mostly use it on my camping and EDC knives, so I don’t know if kitchen knives would be more sensitive or not,…
Double plot twist! YOU are Stalin, time-traveled from the past to prevent your death and the troll is your... I dunno... conscience?
Take that argument to its logical conclusion: If I make a statement and its validity is called into question I can just say “The internet exists” and continue feeling like I’m right?
Preparation banishes fear.
Fancy Feast: Just Do It
I think Ender’s Game was one of the most subconsciously-formative books I ever read because of things like that. Solutions should be as simple as possible. Look at problems from a new angle. Ignore the haters and just be great.
My dad is the same way with phone goodbyes. He has to sum up everything you talked about at the end of the call, then he usually thinks of something else to add, then he has to sum up everything all over again. I’ve learned that when it’s your turn to say goodbye you do it without relinquishing control of the…
My family (my dad, in particular) does the long drawn-out goodbye. The best tip is to keep moving. The second you stop moving you’re stuck. Even if they’re talking to you and telling you a story keep putting on your coat, gathering your things, even walking out the door. Standing and listening is implicit permission…
Kudos, Beth, on hitting the nail (and the bandwagoneers) square on the head. Basically if a diet is popular it’s probably based around one possibly-decent idea that was taken too far. I can’t help but laugh at all the health nuts who seem to become experts and vociferous proponents of every single new fad that comes…
So your response to me saying there’s no legal precedent for suing the guy is to throw down a big document you haven’t even read and sulk away? That makes me even more certain there’s nothing in there to support your stance. Seriously, just look at the table of contents if you can’t be bothered to do your own…
I saw a proof-of-concept touchscreen car interface once that I’ve always wanted to see make it to production. The idea was that there were quadrants that each controlled different functions like stereo, AC, etc. Within each quadrant you could do one-, two-, or three-finger gestures either up and down or side to side…
Care to highlight the part that mentions suing a mediator for demonstrating bias after the fact? I’m honestly not that interested in reading up on this, but I’ll gladly acquiesce if there’s mention of that.
Which? CNN or Fox?
Ok, maybe I was a little hyperbolic, but the format of having a half-dozen people all talking over each other just smacks of Fox News.
Now playing
I know you’re scared, but the only way we can get through this is together.
