I feel like not many people under the age of 30 will get this. I think I may have even forgotten to force my own kids to watch it.

I keep an extremely small 64GB USB-A/USB-C flash drive on my Keychain so I can move files between phones, phone to computer, or load movies and TV shows from a computer or phone and plug into a TV to play.

It's only $10 and sometimes it's very convenient to always have on hand the ability to move files around without the use of a network or the cloud or whatever. The size of it is extremely small.

What pisses me off is how many websites don't work right with Firefox now. There's been several times where I've had issues with a site functioning on Firefox and had to switch to a chromium browser.

It's at least mostly going away nowadays, but....pulling a fire alarm will not make your school fire sprinklers go off. Getting one sprinkler to go off is just that. One sprinkler. None of the rest will go off.

Also, fires in a building are never a spot here, a spot there, over there a spot, and just randomly burning patches all over the place. It just grows out and up from its origin point, for the most part. It doesn't magically plant little patches all over the place. It's also often times so smoky and so thick with smoke that you quite literally couldn't see a big portion of fire if it were ten feet in front of you. You feel the heat and maybe see a faint bit of orange glow. Sometimes you don't even get to see that.

Damn it, democrats. Quit being little bitches. For 30 years ive watched you roll over or play nice and its gotten us screwed over. Have the 5 or 6 Supreme Court justices who decided this hung for treason. Show a country that's sick of corruption. Politicians used to be afraid of the stick. America quit carrying one decades ago.

In the US, almost no one buys their phones outright. They "lease to own". Anyone whe does buy their phone outright can just buy the unlocked ones.

So I'm not sure what this rule would actually change. You're already not Carrier locked if you bought your phone. You're only Carrier locked if you lease it.

The big fuck up was eliminating competition by allowing t mobile to buy sprint. Too many pieces of shit were in charge 2016 to 2020.

A set of baby twins that are going to slowly die over the next two years because the company that made a single shot cure wants to charge over $2,000,000 per dose and insurance won't spend that much.

I called this shit out like a year ago. It's the end of any viable online searching having much truth to it. All we'll have left is youtube videos from project farm to trust.

Food water and oxygen being sent their way is great and all, but they gotta be bored out of their minds and unable to do anything. Send them down a screen and movie projector or some Nintendo DS' and a bunch of copies of Mario kart or something so they can link play.

No. These cast parts take up a lot more area. They will get damaged much more frequently than a frame being damaged.

early adopters, however, owners can receive a “pro-rated credit of $100 to the purchase of a new board,” according to Mudd. The credit will only be issued after owners confirm that they have disposed of the old model.

What a joke. Their idea of a recall on those slightly older boards is to destroy them and get $100 off a new one? These boards are in the $2,000+ range. You can't really find an old beat up used one that's still in working condition for less than like $600.

This isn't a real recall. They're just having newer owners patch the software and providing a scapegoat for litigation purposes of older boards with what amounts to a 5% off coupon.
