IMO, everything described in the article involves sales people gaming the AT&T system, not cheating customers (which is bad, but I’m not here to cry for AT&T).

I don’t know how much a show like this stands to making from streaming, but I would posit that, without a finale, the show will make next to nothing because what new viewer would watch a show without an ending. But if they make a finale they can potentially get streaming revenue in perpetuity.

Borrow or rob?

I’d be curious to hear, based on your demographic research, what percentage of Lifehacker readers have a sous-vide and would like to save money on food, and what a more correct representation of them on this list would be. 17%?

The reaction to this game is proof of what I’ve been saying all along: people love to find something consistent with their world view and point to it as evidence of some brilliant insight they had.

The overhead concern is based on the assumption that the charity is acting merely as a middleman. For instance, I want to pay a family’s legal fees but I woudn’t know how to get it to them so I enlist a charity. If one charity gets $80 of my $100 to a family and a second charity gets $70 to a comparable family, it is…

I have a Harmony setup with Alexa and I can’t describe how satisfying it is when I find myself in the kitchen, hear in the distance that I’ve reach the end of the commercial break, and use my voice to pause the TV.

Serious question: is that sort of reaction against the unwritten rules?

There doesn’t seem to be a coupon for me, I checked pretty thoroughly and even did ctrl-F for “coupon,” so maybe I wasn’t eligible. I may have bought dish detergent on Amazon before.

IMO, the fact that he hasn’t reached full speed makes diving much faster in this case, not to mention in the short distance he traveled it is unlikely he could time his stride properly to hit the bag at full extension.

I’m not necessarily a proponent of splitting it evenly, but separate checks isn’t always feasible and I have experienced a few cluster fucks when everyone puts in “their share” and you’re still $15 short and it is incredibly awkward and frustrating, usually requiring some magnanimous diner to throw in extra money.

I used to do my grocery shopping at like 4 places every week to save money, but I have to admit the amount of time it takes (including studying the sales for the week) has deterred my from doing this lately and I just go to 1 store for everything.

Totally agree. I’ve been playing Stardew myself lately, and when I lay down at night I can’t stop thinking about my virtual crops and animals instead of my real job, which makes it much easier to fall asleep.

There are some people who have legitimate conditions which prevent them from being vaccinated, such as certain allergies.

I’ve owned all of the Mario Party Games, and I would say they are all a lot of fun, but there is very little chance of actually playing them enough to justify the cost.

At what point does a show become a reboot versus just some new episodes of a show that was cancelled?

These potholes prove that anything less than $3.7 Trillion in taxes collected is completely untenable. Well done.

This voicemail exudes the sort of confidence only possessed by a man at the highest levels of power with incredibly valuable information, about to execute a massive takedown. It is absolutely dripping with it.

I don’t condone this, but I admit I am pretty impressed by it.
