“It’s fun, it makes me happy, and it’s better for my mental health than most of the other shit I could spend my money on.” And these are 3 great reasons why you need not answer to anyone...

I still use one at work. I have my work laptop/dock that uses DVI and my linux “test” machine that have HDMI and annoying daisy-chain of dongles making all the stuff work with my DVI/VGA monitors.

You can have Juarez...

Maybe they can try the St. Martins/St. Maartens thing.

AT $260, that’s almost as much as his Yamaha guitar. So for $560, you can own a guitar and that thing, and still not know how to play.

Can you not - within Android at least - disable some of these permissions manually w/o breaking the app? Yeah, I know - you shouldn’t have to.

Actually, this is not totally correct. Signal will send unencrypted texts to your contacts that don’t use Signal.

Thanks for this - I’ve been tying clinch knots since I was in Boy Scouts and they always slip...

Anyone wanna bet that she had her iPhone in her pocket when she went in after it?

I have an old iPod touch that I use to interface with my car’s audio system. For some reason, a lot of car audio kit *expects* to be controlling an iPod. However, my in-pocket and always-on-me device is my Android phone, so I tend to have to maintain songs on both.

It’s just above and to the left of the single C3P0 droid...

Melanie, after looking at it on the Friday before and the day of, BN changed it *again* and made it look like all (or at least more) stores were participating. I think that they had two different stories on their web site(s) and it was just a confusing mess. Anyhow, my 15yr-old son and I went to one that was listed…
