Verizon was the first to roll out 4GLTE in the US back in late 2010, but most carriers didn’t make the jump until 2012-2013. I’d consider that a pretty huge advancement, as well as the fact that a phone from 5 years ago seems ridiculously slow in comparison to today’s phones. Nobody is forcing you to upgrade every…

The thing is, Musk is not an extrovert marketing genius at heart like Jobs was. He’s much more introverted and focused on engineering. The biography on him that came out last year is a really good read, with a lot of insight into his personality and process.

yeah but now Ross has dat Schwimmer money

Wait, what? I could have sworn license plates were state-regulated, you can get legit federal license plates now? Sign me up!

There's a special circle of Hell reserved for people who use apps like "Steve Reich's Clapping Music" in public.

I’m in complete agreement on that. Part of me hopes they fix the navigation if they decide to try it again next year, but then again part of me hopes they keep it the same, if only to reward those who have the patience to hunt for the good deals.

There was plenty of good stuff mixed in with the crap, if you knew where to look for it. They had multiple PS4 deals, an Xbone deal (which I gladly took advantage of), solid deals on high quality headphones, and deals on premium android phones.

That being said, the layout was atrocious and a nightmare to search…

no but every Carlos does

I got new Audio Technicas and an Xbox One package deal, I'd say I did pretty good all things considered.

If you own the white one that was parked next to the NSX at the June Cars & Coffee your car is the background on my phone. What do you estimate the total cost of getting it into working condition has been so far? It’s been one of my dream cars for a long time and it sounds like Doug’s experience is not necessarily the…

No, it is childish because sooner or later, somehow or another, you’re going to disappoint somebody. Running from your problems, playing games, and in general not acting like a mature adult about the situation is by definition childish. The mark of a mature adult is the ability to face those who you’re about to…

This is my move as well. It seems to offend most people more than the single finger salute, which is just icing on the cake.

I cross-shopped a CR-Z with the Kia Forte Koup I eventually ended up purchasing a couple of years ago. It left me absolutely cold, which was disappointing considering it’s predecessor and the fact that I’d loved my Civic Si so much at the time. I tried hard to like it but the thing steered like a pig and was slower…

The spam is probably at least partially my fault, I use Letters2Doug@gmail.com whenever I need to sign up for something annoying and insignificant on the internet. So what I'm saying is, you're welcome.

Oh, for heaven’s sake. If you’re going to criticize the object of our collective affection and worship, at least spell it's name right, you feckless rube.

I don’t give a shit whether liking Red Bull makes me a bro or associated with all of the negative stigmas y’all seem to cling to. If a company invests time and money into doing cool shit (even if the underlying cause of the cool shit is pure advertising), I like that company. Especially when they're such a huge…

Sometimes it makes more business sense to buy the finished product and integrate it into your existing service than to pay developers to replicate it from scratch. It also removes competition from the mix.

Sure, but if I’m emailing a potential employer a cover letter and resume, I’d prefer it show up at 8 AM, not at 2-3 AM when I actually sent it. Some consider it impolite to send emails (especially work related) in the wee hours of the night.

Yeah I think
at this point you might be reaching a little hard. Plenty of flags have some of the same themes to them but that doesn’t necessarily mean that they represent the same thing as the confederate flag does. Mississippi’s could probably use a redesign but if you’re going to make the reach that Arkansas,…
