Does that better content library include older shows? I'd heard that Hulu's main advantage was in more current shows (most of which suck), and NF had as much or more older stuff.
So far, NF isn't quite good enough (or cable hasn't quite p*ssed me off enough) to cut the cord. I've thought about it, and maybe one day I'll do it, but so far I haven't.
The problem is, Netflix doesn't replace cable. I'm not saving $90 a month having NF, I'm adding their $9.99 to my existing bill. That said, NF is still more than worth the price.
One of my issues is that AFAICT without digging, I can't just see the newest crap first. FB shows what it thinks I want to see, which I usually don't. So, I seldom bother with it.
It seems to be a YMMV thing. I have no problem reading text books on my iPad, though the Kindle is better both for readability and device weight. I've heard other people say it's a big difference for them.
Your bookshelf holds thousands of books? Not mine. I live in an apartment and I have a limited amount of space. With two bookcases completely full, and stacks of books just lying around the apartment I prefer to have a kindle so I can buy a book a week without having to worry about where to put them all. Besides, I don't get free shipping from the US.
I'm in the same boat. I live in a house, and probably have significantly more space than you, but I hit my limit years ago, and went several years with very little new content because I just didn't have any place to put them. The Kindle was a game changer for me.
My bookshelves probably have hundreds of books (not a library, but I've got several bookshelves), but that's part of the problem. It's not easy to find a specific book in all that (I had literally been looking for several of my books for years, only finding them when I moved from that house), and have you ever tried taking a full bookshelf on vacation? Like the above poster, I love dead-tree books, but I just don't have enough room for any more.
I really don't think Trump will be as bad as people seem to think. That's not a terribly high barrier to cross, however. I don't think he's quite the monster that everyone wants to claim he is.
No, I'm not voting for Trump. I just don't think he's Hitler.
I agree. Also, he'll only succeed in a fraction of the stuff he wants to do. He will, however, be a uniter. Both the Ds and Rs will oppose him.
There is no way that any apple owner would be OK with the idea that if they ever forget their password, their phone is bricked. So what do they do when the owner contacts them asking for a password reset?
They always seem to get annoyed that I don't know if this particular airport requires I take my shoes off or leave them on, if I put my bag directly on the belt or put it in a bin and then on the belt, if I have to take my tablet out of my bag or leave it in, whether I keep my belt and watch on or not. I swear I flew through this same airport three months ago and the rules were completely different.
For me, it's a no-win situation. If I leave my shoes on, they think I'm a terrorist. If I take them off, they're sure I'm a terrorist!
I don't get bluescreens, but I have had slowdowns and problems waking from sleep on my laptop. Granted, it's a far cry from W9X, but IME, W10 is the least stable Windows since they moved to the NT kernel.
My Windows 10 desktop lost internet access after an update. I installed Ubuntu as a dual-boot and it worked fine - until I dual-booted Windows, which wiped out my ability to boot to Ubuntu.
My W10 laptop didn't get hosed, but I had problems with it for awhile, including problems waking from sleep-mode.
he only died a few years ago. I bet he'd have issues with multiple things, 1st being the space in his name in some systems, (remove the space and vandyke probably isnt an issue), and if it did allow the space, the Dyke would definitely cause problems.
I'd forgotten about the space issue. One of my former cow-orkers was named "Van Kirk" and I remember him complaining about systems that choked on his space, or printed it without the space.
Not as bad as yours, but I've seen the name Richard Head. Except that he used the abbreviation for Richard. Really, I don't know why ANY Richard would use that abbreviation, but especially not with that last name.

Taking notes never worked for me. If I'm focused on writing, I missed half the stuff that was being said.
We have nothing to worry about. I've researched this on Google, and have concluded that they are totally trustworthy and would never manipulate us.
The problem is, they don't really want Cruz either. The guy they really want is 7 states short.

Unfortunately, the most popular desktop OS wasn't designed by Vulcans. It was designed by Ferrengi.
At least the floppies didn't auto-run. You were safe unless you actually booted the computer with the durn thing.

Agreed, but my desktop (or even the laptop) doesn't fit well into my pocket.

I was going to say that I had thought so, but then I realized that my HS physics class WAS half a century ago!
The RNC will probably bring back Romney! There is no upper limit to stupidity.

That's what iCloud is for.

I had the opposite situation. W10 broke my wifi. Ubuntu worked perfectly with it. As always, YMMV.

He probably predated computers, but there was an actor who would have fun with such systems. Dick Van Dyke.

That's nothing. Then his countryman "Wot Teh Fuk" came along...
Damn, wish I hadn't blown my modpoints! :)
