Okay, so for you the 64 GB iPhone makes sense. My point was simply that most people don’t have 26 GB music collections that they put on shuffle everyday nor do they listen to music for hours on end everyday. So to say that “you should never buy a 16 GB phone again” is to ignore how millions of people actually use (or…

And how much of that music have you listened to in the last month? Maybe you listen to a lot of music, but there’s good chance you’ve listened to less than 4 GB of that in the last month.

As I said in the other thread about the subject:

Do you have to actively manage your memory? Yes. Do you have to occasionally delete apps you haven’t used since the first week you downloaded them, or Podcasts from six months ago that you’ve been meaning to get to, or the screenshots of your progression up the Alphabear leaderboard to #3 in the world? Yes. But is it…

You can quickly multiply two two-digit numbers in your head by breaking them into their component parts, multiplying them against each other, and summing the results. Example:

Only the heartiest hardiest will remain standing.

Well, according to Wikipedia, the Enterprise D is 642.5 meters long, 463.73 meters wide, and 195.26 meters tall.

What I find funny is that, while the US had “TelePrompTer,” the UK had “Autocue,” also a trademarked name, and also now a generic name for teleprompters.

Hannibal is done as an ongoing series. Its actors have been released from their contracts and Hugh Dancy’s already signed on for a new show (not to mention Mikkelsen being in one of the new Star Wars movies). If we get lucky, maybe we’ll get a film or a miniseries in the future, but it’s not getting a Community-style…

This was actually an episode of Next Iron Chef several years back. The contestants had to make a first-class airline meal with the catch being that they had to over-flavor everything to make sure that it actually tasted good once they were up in the air. Very cool stuff.

MSRP on high-end non-smartphones was $350. Providers would give you a $150 subsidy, bringing the cost down to $200 on contract. New, high-end smartphones are still $200 on contract, but the MSRP is now $500+, $650 in the case of the iPhone, meaning that the providers are eating a $300-500 subsidy.

1: Pay off whatever balance is left on the phone and its yours

This was unfortunately inevitable once smartphones became the standard. They’re just way too expensive to subsidize. That said, this plan SUUUUUUUUUCCCKKKS. Even worse than the Verizon plan, which I complained about when announced a few weeks ago (and is actually not looking too bad now). At least with the Verizon…

I picked correctly, depending on your definition of “average.” I figured most people would pick 33 (2/3 of 50) and so picked 22. While the mode was, in fact, 33, the mean and median were lower since very few would pick a number over 66 or 67.

Let’s look at this for what it is, somebody to pass the buck to. The reason coaches coach the way they do is because, if it fails, they can always fall back on, “Well, I was following the conventional wisdom and the players just didn’t execute.”

Voice and Text has never been included in the access fee before, I don’t see why it would be now. Voice and Text packages are typically $20-30 more than data only packages right now.

Look’s like we’ll be looking for a different provider when our contracts are up in a couple of years.

I kept the South Dakota plates on my car for eight years after getting it (despite never living in South Dakota while I had it) because my parents were technically the owners and we never bothered to transfer the title. I got pulled over maybe three or four times (never for more than 10 miles over) in those eight…

I think the idea is that they’ve got Cumberbatch and Freeman available to shoot Sherlock so they want to make sure he’s concentrating on getting that right rather than trying to balance both.

It would never work in the NFL because of the fair catch. Canadian football doesn’t have it.
