I’d rather have a better phone with features we’ve seen before than a worse phone with brand new tech, so I don’t really care how “innovative” it is.

This seems like something that only works as a super-niche product. The moment this thing is sold to a mass market, you might as well just project the words “I’m alone please rob me” because crooks would learn to recognize it.

Oh yeah, well I have information that you don’t have which I will not mention here that proves that you’re wrong.

I didn’t read the article, but I think it is hilarious that they accidentally flew the official IKEA® flag instead of the Spotify flag!

Agreed. Selling pollution as a good thing is a tall order, but destroying the schools for most Americans so an elite few can have even better schools is on a completely different level of difficulty that she is absolutely not equal to, making her harmless (relatively speaking during this administration). 

Or perhaps in a similar vein, the projected increase in game sales due to good publicity from the change exceeded projected microtransaction revenue.

I’m actually impressed he got through that without the word “millennials.”

I almost wish I could become mute, just so I could install a big screen in my office rigged to play reaction-gif style video clips to express my thoughts and feelings.

If you believe Lifehacker is a corrupt shill for the tech industry why even visit the site?

Growing up, the idea that pollution was bad was understood to be an undisputed fact. The idea that this is no longer the case and, in fact, a government official considered holding an event to brag about allowing more pollution is mind blowing.

I find it extremely hard to believe that any of his personal fouls “divide the locker room.” What is making you think that? I mean, one of the 4 penalties had zero impact on the game because it came after he drew a roughing penalty that sealed the win.

You’re right, I misunderstood your point. I thought you were saying these companies are being sold to PE because the seller needs their advice.

There is much to be said for the approach in this article, but for me the opposite approach worked out great. The amount of time my wife and I spent planning our wedding was insane. Basically 90% of our free time for a year. By the time the wedding was almost here, we were cursing ourselves for doing it, but the day…

Though in the case of large companies that PE firms are able to take over, the fact is that they probably have shitty marketing and a very bad IT system.

On the other hand, when I was working a particularly stressful job I found that I spent week days working nonstop, Friday and Saturday morning/afternoon decompressing from the week, and Sunday preparing to go back to work, leaving me with like 4hrs/ week not dominated by work. As the article says, it is all about…

Do you honestly think it would have been better if they added a two minute scene where one of the characterw explained how hyperdrives work and why someone needs to be there to actually initiate it? Star Wars has always leaned on the existence of “technology” that is essentially magic, and frankly the idea of a ship…

I feel like the smartphone market is much more open right now because the pace of innovation (that people actually care about) has gotten very slow. An elegant device with the right combination of last year’s features at a reasonable price would be pretty appealing.

The kids aren’t the ones asking to remove the magazines. Adults are, because they don’t want kids to buy them, so I still don’t understand your point.

If Edge gives me Lastpass support on all platforms (which I believe is in beta already) I’ll probably try making the switch. I’m tired of Chrome, which I already stopped using on my iPad in favor of Safari, so I’ll pretty much take any good excuse to change it up.

As I recall, companies that sold frozen dinners were blamed for destroying family life by allowing women to spend less time in the home. In reality, family life was changing for various reasons so somebody realized that frozen dinners would be a product women would buy since they were spending less time in the home.
