Physical pain? Zero.

Now emotional pain? I'm not sure it would even be able to accomplish emotional pain. So much of our emotions are intertwined with chemical balances and releases. If a brain achieved consciousness, but had none of these chemicals at all......I don't know that'd even work.

No. It really isn't. If that were the case, the streaming services wouldn't actually be making a lot more money. Netflix market cap has gone up by $120,000,000,000 over the last 5 years, for instance.

Stop making up false excuses for simple greed. Streaming services are just after as much money as they can get from you.

Sometimes if my cat "really" wants pets and attention, but i can't at the moment, I'll just hold onto her with a big loving hug until she's pissed enough to leave me alone for a bit.

That's not what net neutrality does, and I'm disturbed by this being the number one comment.

Yeah.....all that comment data isn't really that large. They'll have backups captured for likely several years back. All you can view is the info on the current live servers. You might have kept them from getting like 3 months worth of your comments at best.

What do you do to your phones? I've never had an android that only lasted me two years. My current is a nearly 4 year old n20 ultra that's still going strong and I won't give up because it's the last good android phone made with a micro sd card slot.

I'm car guy, IT guy, home maintenance guy, and electronics repair guy.

I learned how to do everything because I'm a cheap ass that won't replace what can be fixed and won't pay to have something be fixed when I can manage it myself.

I got 240,000 miles on a car right now and it's never seen the inside of a shop. Last big screen TV was free because it was broken and then I soldered new LEDS on to fix it. Paid $25 for an $800 dishwasher that just needed disassembling and cleaning. Also $25 for a front load whirlpool washing machine with a broken internal lock mechanism that I repaired. Same for a dryer with bad rollers inside.

People blow way too much money on buying new stuff instead of just learning how to fix and maintain things now. /old man rant

So can I get a $3 check out of this?

The article pretty clearly states it seems to be a software issue with either the programs themselves, or the OS. Where are you getting suspicion about the processors running erratically?

Ours came straight from the streets. Bit of tlc later and she wants to hang with us 24/7.

Seems damned easy in this case.
