I don’t think people with Windows Phones are the target market of a high-end router.

Yes. You will never save money with this for an iPhone. Because Verizon charged the same on-contract price for the iPhone, $200, as they did for the much cheaper android phones that were say $399-$450 off-contract (Moto X for example). So you could get Moto X’s and save money over the old plans, but not iPhones. You…

What you just described is not why millions of gallons of wastewater contaminated the river overnight, but rather because someone incompetent in the Environmental Protection Agency, fucked up. Try again.

Well, since the EPA is completely responsible for this....it wouldn’t have happened if they didn’t exist?

What’s wrong with pouring out warm water? (unless you live in Calidesert, i guess).

Mortgages are risky too (#1 Risk: LOSING YOUR HOME).

“The so-called Thunderstrike 2 attack can be delivered through a phishing email or a peripheral device like a USB stick or even an ethernet adaptor.”

Do you always struggle with reading or is it just because it’s Monday morning?

If you live in a desert, well, you have to live in a desert.

If I shoot a duck, I remove and keep its tracking band. I then notify the USFWS that the duck is dead (only out of courtesy), common practice on tagged animals in the US.

All recent models. Yikes. So even people following the Golden Rule of FiatChrysler (never own/lease one for more than 2-3 years because they are the most unreliable pieces of shit on the planet) are still getting burned, ouch.

Does Lenovo or Windows or Google get a cut when I play Spotify through Chrome on Windows 8 on my laptop? No.

Even worse, 30% of $12.99 is $3.90, so Spotify is only making $9.10 per month instead of $9.99 if you sign up through iTunes, while Apple does nothing.

A handy map of where NOT to live.

They sold more yesterday than they have on any black friday. It was a success.

This.

I’m typing this from my 2014 13in MBPr, which I use for development work. I also prefer OSX to Windows (especially for dev). No bias here. I should have clarified, MBP margins aren’t extraordinary compared to the industry average, however iDevice margins, are.

it bugs me that an inferior, over-marketed product sells so many units when there are much better headphones devices to be had for the same price

I love when I tell people that I am a software engineer and they say “Oh me too! I work in IT!”

Wat. If I kept mine that low my electric bill for my 1600 sq ft house would be $450/mo here in NC. I keep mine at 84 while I’m at work, 80 when home, and crank it up to 82 when I’m asleep and still pay $280-$310 in electricity (and only $60-$70 in the winter with my gas heat). It’s only tolerable as long as you switch…
