  • My next phone will run Linux, even if it is inconvenient.

    As soon as this phone is paid off, I'll be changing from Google Fi as well. Which sucks because it's hella cheap.

  • Yes, but this is also true for women. I feel like pant/skirt companies would make more money just selling pants/skirts with pockets if their competitors weren't, unless all bottom-clothes companies also started selling purses at the same time in some sort of anti-female-pocket cartel.

    I'm sure there's some history behind this that I don't fully understand. The logic just seems flawed to me.

  • Books weren't designed to be addictive and make you lose track of time.

    Maybe not all books, but a good book is, to me, quite addictive and causes me to lose track of time.

    After reading the article though, I'm realizing I'm not a typical bathroom user. I've always had digestive issues unrelated to books and cell phones, so my loo time is much longer than average, it seems. I must be one of those 7%.

  • This is coming from a place of ignorance, but are these "hand drawn" animations actually hand drawn or is this just a new way to say 2D animation? It was my impression that by now, even 2D things are put together mostly on a computer and not any more "hand drawn" than an initial sketch up of a 3D character. In other words, I find it hard to believe people are still using tracing paper to hand draw these movies frame by frame. I'm happy to be wrong here, though.

  • But if this logic works, why aren't they tricking men into buying something else too?

  • not to defend smart phones, but I used to read books on the toilet before phones became popular and never had a problem. What's different about a phone?

  • The rules contradict themselves.

    You can't seriously tell me not to take things seriously and then expect me to take not taking things seriously seriously.

  • I'm pretty sure for most of them you just type update and it will update.

  • Yeah, and I'm considerably new to the field. Not unskilled but like entry level new, as far as professional tech experience goes. I was trying to change careers from business degree / accountant when I was laid off.

    Really trying not to go back to accounting as it was mind numbingly boring.

    I'm just gonna keep trying until something gives and have fun learning more in the process.

  • I am in the same boat. Can't even get an interview it seems.

  • idt i've seen one that doesn't work in years. Maybe a regional thing?
