Cable free since... always. I never had cable, not even growing up. I guess I technically had cable for 2 years in college in the dorm, but didn’t have a TV. I’ve been streaming shows since 2004.

Right now I have a Dell box running Windows 8.1 with WinTV as a media center. serves 99.9% of my needs. For the very rare

By cutting the cord, are we just referring to the TV part? Most of us are still stuck paying a cable company for our Internet connections, right?

I’d just cancel my subscription if they did that. If I’m gonna get a cheaper-yet-still-shitty version of cable a la Hulu Plus then I’ll just pirate my media again, fuck it.

Millions of folks still pay for cable. So you’re likely in the minority that will cancel if they add house ads to Netflix

This might be a good rule for productivity, but for anything important and to cover your ass, you should always follow up after the phone call with an email to the effect of “Thanks for talking earlier, this is just to confirm that we’re on the same page. We discussed [issue] and agreed on [conclusion].” or if it was

Who makes up this stuff? I understand tipping waitstaff, who make less than min. wage, though I think it should be abolished and restaurants should just pay them and charge more for the food. I understand offering a tip for something extra or done with special flair. But I have been a wedding consultant and nobody

It seems inconceivable to me that there is any connection between the flight management system network and the entertainment network. If this is true, whoever approved that should be tossed out of an airplane at 30,000’.

First time I get to use this in response.

Do faxes count?

Fair enough. I find it simplistic and limited, and find Android to be far more intuitive. It’s all in the personal preference.

If that’s him speaking, it’s because he’s in a large mechanical suite built to beat down supes. So it’s a speaker, not his natural voice.

If you haven’t seen it, check out The Dark Knight Returns animated films. They’re emulating his suite from that one.

The boxer jock has a separate pouch for your junk which feels like you are being gently hugged by a declawed kitten (in a totally non-sexual way). Not that my junk has ever been cradled by a declawed kitten in either a sexual or non-sexual way, mind you.

I don’t know if you’re a teacher, but the standards are being raised in New York. The eighth-grade ELA test was estimated today as rating a second-year college level by the specialists in the building this morning. The standards are getting more and more strict, with less and less funding/time/support to actually

Teacher here. Yes. Students should opt out. In fact, I think that everyone should opt out, in as large a number as can be realized, as a form of passive protest against recklessly-integrated, poorly-designed, over-concealed “measures” of teacher efficacy and student learning.

So...which one are you getting?

as an apple fan I have one thing to say:

I know this is super cool, and a feat in engineering and skill, but I just can't stop thinking of this:
