I first met Whitson when we were both in detox. At the time, he didn’t have any money, or any future to speak of.
I said “Look, you’re going nowhere, and you’re doing it fast. Try this. You already *have* the geek look... so??? Be a geek for real and take up coding.”
That’s how I got him off the skid row circuit and…

I like it but I like the simplicity and flexibility of a Lego phone/tablet dock even more.
Damn kids and their hippie radio. In my days, we used to chisel our messages on a rune stone and leave it in the middle of nowhere!
Meek Millers or whatever his name is.

The non-profit jack assess hell bent on trying to release a cheap computer anyone can afford around the world? I'm sure they didn't know this was going to happen.
This will probably get lost in the comments, however, I've worked at KFC for 4 years in the past and I can tell you they teach you the "Rule of 7", but no one follows it. The chicken was never inspected that well. (Looking for bruises? No way.) The brine was always tap water and we had clam-shell baskets for frying…
