    Jago81,

    First, I’m married and not looking for dates.

    Second, I said nothing about women in my post. I was talking about how how to be an asshole. Men that can sit comfortably in a single seat should do so while I stand.

    I was talking to people that feel like it is their right to take up two seats because it hurts their…

    Before the defense of manspreading comes, here is how to be a man with a package and still be not an asshole:
    When there are plenty of seats, spread out, give the boxers a tug and your legs a shake so everything is comfortable.
    As soon as you see a single person may have to stand because there isn’t room, STAND YOUR…

    I actually have the same cubicle I had from 3-4 jobs ago as my home office in my basement. They were going to throw it away when we got upgrades, so I saved it from the dumpster.
    It clearly defines this section of my home as not my home, but my workplace.
    The association with my work being done in that cubicle is so…

    One thing I didn’t see covered in this article is the impact to your cellular service signal.
    I know many of the readers in here are in large cities with nearly ubiquitous WiFi, let alone cell service.
    However, for those times that you head out to the fringes of your coverage map, I’ve noticed a DRASTIC reduction in…

    Now playing

    All I can think of is the sexual contract video from Bioshock Infinite: Burial at Sea

    Any details on end-to-end encryption? I don’t add new apps like this unless it has it.

    Another option: High capacity USB flash drive. Leave the laptop home.

    Many of us that travel with laptops are working for companies that can provide another laptop for us to borrow.

    Use Windows to Go if on Windows, or there are also similar options for *nix.

    Actually, yes, the locks are still useful.

    I was about to take offense at your pop culture reference! :)
    Yeah, I totally see how the graphics community would have a different dialect from us in the hardware or operating system side.
    We worked with the file on a day to day basis, but just one of many other file types we were moving bits for.

    Just curious... Data:…

    I was using dial-up by ‘96 and was creating my own GIF files by ‘97.

    Even if everyone gets the same router, you’re still better off. The same number of users spread across more channels means less interference total.

    Most modern devices are.
    If it supports 802.11ac, then yes.
    If you still have an iPod Touch, then no.

    Don’t forget the number one killer on this planet: Oxygen.
    It has short term benefits, but is proven to cause death in 100% of users.

    Legally, they’ve defined “boarded” as “in the air”

    So...yeah...you have not technically “boarded” the aircraft, in a legal sense, until the plane is in the air. The physical location of your ass has nothing to do with it.

    My source for this is the United Airline carriage agreement. They list the reasons you may be denied boarding in one section, and in a totally different section they list the reasons you may be removed from the flight.
    Now, that said, any vessel on land, sea, or air is a dictatorship. The captain (or driver) is the…

    I agree with most of this, but this article conflates “denying boarding” with “being removed from the plane after being permitted to board”.
    Those are two very different acts, and they have different rules both at a federal level and within the carriage agreement at the airlines.
    Long story short:
    -They can deny…

    I liken it to private ownership of the road that is connected to your home.
    I pay RoadCo for the use of that road on a monthly basis. Guests to my house don’t have to pay anything for that road, and neither do FedEx or UPS. They have to pay for the road that goes to their home or business, though.
