The fact that Apple got rid of the person heading Apple+ News and doesn’t tout any numbers they way they do for their successful products is all the all the data a reasonable person needs. 

Florida went Republican in 2016. Let em drown. They are doing it to themselves, I have no pity for them.

Don’t forget that Whole Foods was a piece of shit before Amazon, even.

@Ryan: I thought you did a really good job of explaining this terribly complex result for the space given and the audience.

This is really a problem of the airlines’ own doing.  By charging to check bags they’re basically begging us to drag everything on board - and as much of it as we can.  Can you imagine if your first checked bag was free but each carry-on was $20?  This article wouldn’t even be necessary.

I flew 135K this year. All short hop domestic - a LOT of flights. I checked a bag exactly never. And never ONCE did the TSA “unpacked my bag because there is too much stuff in it” - that is just not a thing. They unpack your bag when they see something your should not have in it, or something they can’t identify (a…

Battery technologies need to have lots of properties at the same time to be commercially viable and these announcements usually don’t mention the one property that the new technology doesn’t have that is the ultimate deal-breaker. For example:
- Environmentally friendly- check
- High capacity/energy density - check
-…

So these batteries could maybe combat sea-level rise? These sound like the most amazing batteries ever. Bring on climate change! </s>

I’m not saying this sounds like Cold Fusion,

I’m hoping for the best, although it’s generally a good idea to be cautious about reported battery breakthroughs. A lot of battery tech seems really promising in small amounts in lab conditions, but struggles to translate to the type of robust system that could actually survive the conditions of being in a car for…

...never use a debit card.  Good advice in all situations.

If I could Ctrl+C a car, I’d totally steal a car. 

My favorite progression was always:

Negatives are also a great way to work on pull ups if you aren’t there yet. Just jump to the top (or use a bench) and slowly lower yourself down. If you are going to go assisted definitely use bands vs the assisted machines at the gym. You will progress a lot faster because you still have to stabilize yourself.

If you read the judge’s decision, there are a few things that stand out.

It doesn’t really taste like chicken, not really a mystery to me. If you were to grill some chicken strips and taste it side by side with Subway you’d notice pretty quickly you were dealing with a different kind of protein. Obviously Subway has the money and motivation to fight it, but I hope they lose.

Side note, a…

The cover photo shows two phones plugged into wall warts plugged directly into an outlet. I don’t think you would need USB condoms for those—you’re only getting power from the wall if you supply your own adapter. It would only be if you attempted to use the direct USB ports that the “condom” would be necessary, since…

I was obsessed with last year’s Peloton ads, where a man bought one for his wife for Christmas and hid it in the garage, but couldn’t resist the urge to keep sneaking in and using it himself. Meanwhile, a separate ad showed the wife stumbling upon her gift (which just sat openly in the garage) and *also* kept sneaking…

I always thought 6:00 was a fairly normal time for adults to wake up. It’s not pleasant, but it’s not something I ever thought of bragging about.

Why would I want it? I had a very brief ownership of an iPhone and that was one “feature” I turned off immediately. Now if it could tell when I was in a car, ask me aloud if I want to receive the latest text message aloud, and I could respond to it by talking then I would be all over it. But to keep me from getting…
