You’re right - it is a pain. I can get almost any other show while sitting at my computer or tv and not have to go through bullshit hoops. Additionally, I am an HBO and Showtime subscriber, and I record shows to my Tivo. I typically transfer these shows to my computer where I can watch while I work. HBO won’t allow…

Well I just backed the Arduboy and its very much like that.

Thats not exactly correct - if the “donations” far exceed the needed amount, that means there are more orders to be filled, which cost more money. Perhaps it will be more profitable as production scales up, but nobody’s getting ripped off.

I’ve been extremely lucky in that both my kids will try absolutely anything and they both have relatively sophisticated palates. The only thing they both won’t eat is fried plantains. Its very weird because I love them. DNA test time?

I’mma let you finish, but I didn’t tell my parents I was having a baby until 4 hours before she was born.

Because $.

Well, this is interesting - I bank with Simple too, and my card was similarly used to attempt to buy auto parts very recently as well. I haven’t been to Mexico and I use that card primarily for online transactions - I’m really thinking now that I wasn’t skimmed and that someone was compromised. Hmmmm....

I’m a wedding photographer, and trust me - I’ve seen it ALL. I don’t have a huge problem with large bridal parties - its always really lovely to see a bride with a bunch of her very close friends who all mean a lot to her. It always sucks to see someone who just corrals a bunch of women so she can have a big show with…

Not at all useless. it could function as a battery backup for one, and much more importantly it could collect off-peak power at a lower price and then supply that to the house during peak hours, thus saving money.

That’s pretty fantastic! Combined with the Powerwall this could result in some pretty awesome savings. My current average light bill is $250 - I’m estimating that using only off peak energy if that was available in my area would result in a savings of $160 monthly - that would mean I can recover the cost of the…

Not sure how they work but I know people who have gens that kick on so fast its under a second, and barely perceptible when theres an outage. Definitely not 3-4 seconds.

Says $200.

Fetch Robotics for example, might be hiring.

She stood a better chance of making it home uninjured after being completely drunk on a train platform than when she got arrested by the police. Sickening.

Wow! But if that thing hit someone, they would die.

And here’s my favorite sandwich story - when I go to a sandwich shop (often Potbelly’s), I ask the server if they’re game as its not always a good time for shenanigans. Once they say yes, I then ask them to make me a sandwich - I don’t answer *any* questions - I hate having to answer 10 questions to get a sandwich. I…

I’m honestly quite surprised its a number that we can actually grasp.

I go to the grocery store often - 2-3 times a week - it’s very convenient for me, and I get to hit all sorts of sales on a regular basis. The secret to my success is knowing how to cook, and being willing to learn how to cook something I don’t already know how to cook. So I have a bit of a list when I go to the store,…

I came here to say exactly this - and also, its not hard to have a computer, take away its network card(s) and then just save work to USB drives. It doesn’t appear he’s banned from using a computer.

Hmmmm. Cucumbers live in the sea - I daresay a bunch of cucumbers living in salty water would be in quite a pickle.
