Bluetooth headphones will be all the rage soon.

Haptic can tell you when you’ve successfully pressed a key, but it can’t help your fingers hone in on the key in the first place. Unless they find another way to use haptic.

People said the same thing about CDs and floppy disks. But Apple was right.

I don’t want a touchscreen laptop FFS. Just because you can do it doesn’t mean you should. I don’t want finger oil and fingerprints all over my screen.

“Gaming would also be a lot more interesting.”

Who are these idiots who simply MUST shave a few millimeters off their laptop and are fine with trading critical functionality like a usable keyboard or hardware performance to do it?

Touchscreen laptops are lame.

Yeah, but the upside of having a TiVo vs. the POS DVRs telcos provide.

I don’t see how this is going to work. Touch typing requires feeling the keys. If you want to get a really thin keyboard but still be able to touch type, I think the retina MacBook is the best you can do. I adapted to that one pretty quickly, but when typing on the glass of my iPad, it’s not nearly as efficient.

Star Trek: Discovery will air exclusively on piracy.

I guarantee the second season will be on broadcast once CBS sees just what a failure their All Access plan is going to be.

People also need to consider buying an antenna to get the free OTA signals as a part of cord cutting, it’s free after the one-time purchase, and like you said, if you buy your own DVR, you’re not paying the rental fees in addition to the actual DVR service fee.

Not a sucker, just a decision-maker.

They’ll have to release it on DVD at some point and at that time I use my Netflix disc subscription.

So what’s gonna happen here is everyone is going to go back to pirating shows because the convenience no longer outweighs the cost. And then they’re all going to gripe about how everyone is pirating their shows again. We totally didn’t cause this! Never saw it coming!

At best, the few services anyone is interested in altogether still amounts to less than cable.

At wort, you learn to juggle, pay for one service and binge for the month, then cancel and reactivate at a later time when a new series or you have enough backlog to binge again.

The one service that makes that easy is Hulu,…

My favorite part of the seasons in Chicago is how much everone thinks they love summer, but after a week people are like “fuck this, where’s the snow?” Then we get that first arctic blast and people are thinking “can’t wait until those gorgeous Chicago summers by the lakefront/festival/bbq/whatever’s outside.” Then…

Oh nooooo earthquakes and wildfires! Tornados and hurricanes are much better! Nevermind the sunny weather, diversity, and lack of snow. Out here in Ohio the sun is gone roughly half the fucking year.

I go to Palo Alto all the time and I’ve never had a problem with my phone.

Just reinforce that it’s all their fault, then they can deal with it unambiguously.
