Ring could change today and become the most pro-privacy corporation in history, and their products would still suck due to technical shortcuts taken in design/manufacturing. Which is the real reason Gizmodo should be telling people not to buy them.

Privacy concerns aside, you should steer clear of Ring products because they’re technically not good. The Ring doorbell (even Pro, from what I gather) is still basically a beta product. Ring continues to put sub-par wifi hardware in their devices. Ring support forums are awash in user complaints about poor…

I can read just fine, I believe it is you who is having trouble with comprehension.

Like I said, feel free to set up a youtube channel showing yourself seeking remuneration from people reclining into “your” space. If you paid for it and they’re stealing it, you’re undermining your own argument by not enforcing ownership. They have taken it by adverse possession and it is no longer yours, “chief.”

I’ve never had the screen shut off when someone reclines the seat in front of me. What airline does that?

Your “golden rule” includes depriving others of a service they paid for?

Please film yourself asking for reimbursement from fellow travelers who recline into “your space.” I would watch a YouTube channel devoted to these escapades; heck, I might even click an ad link on such a channel.

You paid for the space behind your seat that it can recline into. Conversely, if you feel the person reclining their seat in front of you is taking something you paid for, kindly ask them for a refund.

Airlines have this thing called “seats that offer more room” that you can pay for so you can get your work done.  If you’re paying for coach, you’re getting coach space. 

That’s a compromise, option 3, and it’s not ideal.

Partially. The airline wrote the rules, yes. It’s up to us to play by them. If you want more leg room, you can pay extra for it. Otherwise, my seat reclines, and if I want to use the feature I *did* pay for, I’m going to use it.

Counterpoint: If you expect someone who paid for a seat that reclines to not recline it because it inconveniences you, the monster is you.

One of my kids and their SO are house-hunting in Sonoma. “Generator” just moved to the top of my housewarming gift ideas list.

Will it still be unnecessarily loud? I dunno about anyone else, but when a Shelby goes down the main thoroughfare that’s about 3/4 of a mile away from my house, I definitely want to know about it.

It won’t come in handy to you because you’re too stuck in your cushy Nerf life to get out and experience the non-paved world.

The rules say you have to supply a link where it can be bought. Nobody is saying ***you*** have to buy it there.

KitKat Dark Chocolate. If they had these when I was a kid, I would’ve kicked in the door of whatever house was handing them out.

If you’re that finicky about your video shooting, buy a video camera, not a primarily-still camera.

I think people are shitting on her for sharing her bad, un-researched take. Like, if I saw the online mob going for, uhh, I dunno.... Charlie Chaplin, I sure would make sure to do some research about Charlie Chaplin before declaring him to be a good dude because I recall he made some funny movies.

A Payday bar is probably ok for dogs. No chocolate, just peanuts / peanut butter, and caramel.
