It’s almost like buying something as soon as it comes out brings the risk that it won’t be in full working order and will still have significant flaws. I’m not sure that that’s exactly news. But the fact that people who are so in love with the iPhone that they are willing to get rid of a perfectly good working iPhone and unnecessarily upgrade for vanity are willing to back out is moderately interesting/telling. I feel like the pre-order group in any market is always surprised when the thing they pre-ordered is not 100% as good as they were promised. But then they will continue to pre-order…

Republicans released the overt logic denying kraken and now they think they can somehow get it to go away with ads appealing to logic? Republicans that don’t want Trump already don’t want him. Republicans that want Trump will want him regardless of what he does or what they are shown. It weren’t so scary I would be getting a bit enjoyment out of watching the GOP realize what they’ve done to the legitimacy of their party.

Trump’s social media posts are sounding more and more like Chris Chan

I like the idea. As a straight guy who drinks vodka and soda/tonic I get told my drink is gay from time to time. Now nobody will feel the need to inform me since it’s printed right on the can.

As they should…

You can put another check in your daily tally of being annoying and out of tune with the tone of a conversation in the name of your cause. Veganism is officially something I agree with but will avoid because I’m lazy and also because of how every thread on social media has to contain a tone-deaf post with veganism as the answer to the question. Becoming a stereotype is one way to get you all caps message out. Please combine it with annoying people into changing. Veganism is essentially synonymous with loudly interjecting yourself into every remotely related subject. At this point I am not sure if there are real vegans online or just trolls trying to make them look annoying. Yall are right, but your delivery needs work.

I for one welcome my new meme, porn, and communism content overlords.

I can quickly, with minimal info, triage the work/inconvenience ratio of any given leisure activity and determine whether it is vaible as entertainment.

Nothing. As long as people are scared of dying and other people are willing to profit from it, religion has a home

Same thing as the current race to the profit at the bottom of the septic tank that meta, twitter, and reddit are in now.

Only when a search engine points me to a very obviously correct and well worded answer to a tech problem. I don’t log in.

They didn’t force them to technically. They voided the original and left them with a choice of finding alternative means of transportation or buying an inflated ticket. If you violate the TOS of your transit ticket they can terminate the ticket agreement. It’s totally a scumbag move, but probably not a slam dunk lawsuit.

It would be like if you used a hack to get a cheaper uber and they refused to take you the rest of your ride until you paid without the hack. The hack may be totally legal, but within a private contract it constitutes a violation of your user agreement. Now you can walk, take the bus, hitchhike, rent a U-Haul, or whatever you want to continue the trip. But uber can say you aren’t going anywhere in an uber until you comply with their TOS. Again, scumbag Mr. Burns capitalism, but legal and unlikely to be worth civil litigation.

Ever since the “you can’t disable the fully charged notification” update that hit the same week as 5 unremovable apps with full phone permissions, I am done with Samsung. Such a scumbag way to remind you it’s not your phone.

I break them, then buy a new unlocked “last gen” phone cheap to replace it. I am usually one or two versions behind the “newest” phone, but I’m spending less than using carrier based device insurance. Phones have become like sunglasses to me. I don’t buy particularly nice ones because I just destroy them.

They don’t vote trump, they just don’t vote. The Democrats continue to push candidates who are so old and out of touch that younger voters don’t see them as in any way preferable to literal Nazis. Think about that for a minute, there is a group of voters who see the level of disconnect the Democratic party has with its voters as an equal evil to actual Nazis. Given that our left wing is actually a right wing central sort of party, and both parties are suckling at the teet of big business, giving tax breaks to billionaires while younger generations can’t afford apartments… I see how they have gotten to this conclusion.

It is both slightly satisfying and somewhat terrifying that a single rich twat can buy the multinational media provider that he feels threatened by amd festroy it. It is even more concerning that we aren’t 100% sure if he’s trying to ruin it or just that bad at running it.
