    I said iPhone 4, not 4S. Which means it still runs on iOS 7.1.2, not 9.x.

    Also, duh.

    Well, I don't have a freakin' garage. I live in an apartment. I guess I'll have to drive my car up the stairs to the third floor and charge it via the kitchen oven outlet.

    iOS 11.4 is draining my battery, and I have an iPhone 4. That's how bad iOS 11.4 is!

  10. Reddcoin is positioning itself as the social media currency. If they are successful, its value will easily go up. Probably not $1000 per coin, but $1 to $5 is not impossible.

    We're in 2018. What classic Mac OS software do you still need to run? And if you absolutely need to, nothing is preventing you from running it inside a VM.

    Here's another anecdotal evidence: I never had any Wi-Fi related problems with my mid-2010 Mac mini. Not once in eight years.

    He's talking about Macs, not iPhones and iPads.

    Sent from my old mid-2010 Mac mini because Apple is not offering me any reasonable upgrade path.

    UK wants an electric-vehicle charger in every new home.

    Why the fuck do they want to install chargers inside homes? The chargers should be installed outside!

    "Tobaco is a mature and standard industry, done for decades in Canada and US."

    See what I did? There's no argument whatsoever in what you said.

    Fracturing is mature standard industry practice, done for decades in Canada and US.

    That doesn't make it safe nor healthy for us or the environment. That just means it's been done for decades.

  17. You can still easily get something like Reddcoin simply by running a wallet on your computer. It's not proof-of-work so it won't tax your CPU at all.

    Reddcoins aren't worth much now, but like Bitcoin maybe you'll regret not mining for Reddcoins ten years from now.

    The top 5 thought-provoking films to watch are, in no particular order:
    - Plan 9 from Outer Space (1959)
    - Manos: The Hands of Fate (1966)
    - Howard the Duck (1986)
    - Battlefield Earth (2000)
    - Jack and Jill (2011)

    After watching those five movies, if will provoke you into never thinking about such lists on the Internet ever again.
