I don't see the fascination with having thin phones. I consider the S5 to be about as thing as I'd want a phone, though I'd prefer something more rugged still. This race for thin phones is ridiculous. I'm also not sure why we need waterproofed phones. As long as it survives use in the rain, that should be good.
No idea why manufacturers are so gung-ho on sealing the battery into the device. The Note 7 recall would have been far cheaper if users could have just removed the battery...
This guy's name is Ernie, but he's writing a story as if he's like 15 and never knew about the good ol' days. Either his parents hate him, or he was targeting a younger crowd.
Hey, that's pretty good. I was just looking for some decent nerdy shit... keyboards, peripherals, etc. Maybe some new boardgames and head phones. The US prime day was probably way better than the Canadian one.
Not sure if it sucks more and more every year or what... last year's Prime Day was pretty good, though. This year really didn't have many sales, and they were all on dumb shit.
Yeah, that's fair. I work in with a team of fellow geeks, so it's normal for us all to be engaging in random off-topic banter. I'd say work is also my social life so it works for me.
Even if I didn't have a wife and kids, I'd still prefer an office. The change of scenery is nice, as is the ability to have a separate working and living space.
I've tried it. It sucks. So many things around you to keep you distracted. Plus your wife and kids forgetting that you're supposed to be working. Also, throw in the fact that if you work from home you now never get away from your work. Then there's the fact that you don't actually get to shoot the shit with anybody - who are you going to water cooler talk with? Yourself? I find it hard to believe that anybody can appreciate working from home.
ISPs will forever piss me off. Instead of using the money to improve infrastructure and services to actually become appealing companies, they fucking piss it all into a pot to destroy the very service they're trying to deliver.
Why the hell are people paying the ransoms in the first place? This is just encouraging more people to make these types of viruses. Make fucking backups of your shit, fire the moron that unleashed the virus in your network, restore from backup, and carry on with life.
You'd think the mentors would be top app developers. How are these people even able to help in any way? You're going to wind up with a typical "know-nothing" bean counter of a manager. Your app will then crash and burn.
This is really interesting - I actually saw somebody search for American Express on Bing and end up on a different bogus website. I had no idea how they managed to pull it off, but now I think I have some idea of what happened...

How are they able to self-brick but not self-update?

I can't wait until we get a phone so thin that it snaps under its own weight. This whole "Thin phone" war needs to end... it's stupid.
Touche. Though the first point I think is a bit off because it's missing the labor involved in replacing the battery in the returned units.

Any headline that ends with a question mark by the word no.
I don't see any question mark in the summary headline or TFA.
How can they prove that the owner of the phone was a person caused damage to property?
From what I'm reading here, the US Prime Day was pretty sweet. The Canadian Prime Day was shit.

Probably a real disappointment for people that are running out of lube from the first go-around.

ANSI art is far superior.

Not at all the case. I've just made myself some scripts so I can do my shit more efficiently than others to give me more down time.

That must be like 3/4 of each company! They'll probably merge them together and rebrand to yAhOoL
How could somebody unfamiliar with something be a mentor for it?
