Atrial fibrillation comes in a few different flavors: paroxysmal, early persistent, long standing persistent. Then there's silent afib which, as the name suggests, people are unaware they have and are at a risk of stroke. That said, this maybe a potentially nice feature that may save a lot of people from having strokes. I've seen some docs talking about this on Linked in and I'm curious as to how many of these patients will really have afib.
Pay more to burn up your bandwidth. Can always upgrade to gigabit internet so that 4K is smooth like puddin'... oh, but that's also paying more to burn up your bandwidth. Cox does let you pay an extra $50/mo for unlimited tho!
I think I spent two years and $800 in fees on my bachelors: tech fees, online class fees, graduation fees, and, while I didn't use one, students get fee'd to death with the cards mom and dad put money on. Every time I'd get a "friend rape" email I wanted to reply and say: the real raping going on is of the students with fees!
My university also had a plethora of "free" services for students. The ones I knew about, I never used, but I probably paid for them and the ones I didn't know about wrapped up in my tuition! This is a great lesson for anyone who wants free college: someone is going to pay for all of this shit. Using the present situation as the case, the students/parents already are, but now they're wanting someone else to foot the bill.
Colleges have a lot of explaining to do to students and their parents when it comes to them implying you have to go to college for a job. You don't. Not even necessarily for a high paying job. I'd say college helps, but it can be done without by sweating your ass off a bit.
I bought an Xbox One for the same reason as many other people: because my friends were buying one. Before PS4 and Xbone, I had Xbox 360 and PS3 and the PS3 slayed the Xbox in performance. PS3's Achilles heel was online play (albeit it had other issues). Despite being free, it couldn't compete with Xbox Live in terms of quality. Now the PS4 is playing catch up. If it weren't for friends, I'd be all over PS4 and I wouldn't look back; therein lies the challenge for Sony in the console wars.
When they went with the support business model, I knew someone was going to get screwed. "Thanks for making this great piece of software, community, but it needed so much dang support... we'll take the money."
US government (and apparently Canada too) have no problem pursuing someone for pirating a $20-30 movie, but the US wonâ(TM)t even lift a finger for people getting scammed out of thousands with telephone scams via spoofed numbers. âoeWeâ(TM)ll never catch them anyway,â they say. I bet if they stopped chasing pirates and made telemarket scams a priority they might make a dent in it.
Bought an Epson on sale at a brick and mortar. Had ok reviews across the internet. It fucking blows. If you donâ(TM)t print a few documents a week, the ink clogs up and you wind up printing 10 sheets to clear it along with âoeclean ink nozzleâ functions a few times. If it runs to low on ANY ink, it refuses to print - even if itâ(TM)s a color ink and youâ(TM)re printing black and white! Ironically it says âoeyou can print in black and whiteâ but the only options that come up are âoechange cartridgeâ and âoecancel print.â Sucks sucks fuckin sucks.
Just asked one of my client's IT department for a power cable the other day. Yeah, the one powering your computer. This one was for a workstation, too. She wouldn't do it because she said she didn't know what voltage, amperage, or wattage the computer was. Then I told her: 120v AC, 3 amps, 250 watts. She still wouldn't do it. The cunt.
I get a rush of phone calls sometimes from people saying "Hey, you called me, who is this? Why do you KEEP calling me?" My response is usually dumbfounded and the conversation ends with the caller just as confused, but sometimes they get angry and say "put me on your DO NOT CALL LIST!" So my number is spoofed. Verizon tells me there's not a damn thing they can do about it. Sucks since it is a business line and I take calls from clients every day, but Verizon has their money from me (well, probably millions from my company, as we are pretty damn big) and doesn't give a flying fuck.
Infection control in about every hospital I've set foot in in the last 14 years will tell you hand sanitizer doesn't do shit for VRE - wash your hands.
We won’t help gamgam and pawpaw who got conned out of thousands trying to get their grandson jimmy out of jail, but he was never under arrest in the first place. Won’t chase down the guys selling credit cards. Or the dudes phishing for social security numbers and bank logins.
But we will sure as hell throw a college student in prison and fine him the value of a nice car or house for fucking bootlegging a shifty film like the hurt locker.
Bullshit. It’s not because we can’t catch the fraudsters, it’s because we won’t because gamgam and paw paw don’t have as much money as Hollywood.
Was in Target with the wife and kids. Wife was grabbing a few things off one aisle while I turned down the coffee maker aisle and waited on her. I was killing time and talking to the kids in our cart. Wasn't looking at coffee makers. Had not shopped for them on the web either. We don't talk about coffee makers, because we have one. That night on my Facebook feed: coffee makers! Oodles and oodles of the fucking things!
A few weeks later, a buddy is over visiting and we are in the garage having a beer. I told him my wife wants me to get a shed for the yard equipment. Conversation ends there. Here comes Facebook with tool sheds!
My wife was talking to her cousin about how her brother rented a bounce house for his kid's birthday. Bounce houses in her facebook feed!
I then realized my phone's microphone was enabled for Facebook, so I turned it off. Facebook denies they do this citing the demands of data, but I think their denial highly dubious given they can easily look for keywords to make ads relevant.
I guess Target could uniquely identify me and track my position in the store via wifi and, since I likely it isn't unreasonable I opened the Facebook app in the store, I was waiting to have that data linked to my profile.
On some other spying notes, my company has banned Alexa in all corporate offices since she records and stores everything and that data can be subpoenaed. Also, I recently heard Alexa maybe serving your hotel room! Next time you're in a hotel, just start talking to Alexa and see if she answers. You may get a sneak peak at the new service they're planning on rolling out!

You put a device in one end and out pops a cheaper copy on the other side! No espionage involved.
I'll download my porn BEFORE I go to Starbucks!!! Just like I do when I fly!

5 years from now: Google Announces End of Support for QUIP, End of Internet
A MacBook Pro is the first laptop I had no desire to install Linux. With Homebrew and MacOS it's pretty much Linux with MS Office.
This AC is telling the truth: https://www.amazon.com/two-4-f...
It was open source software. Free.

Looking for a color laser MFP.
And you're going down with 'em. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Yet here we are...
If you can hear it, then you can rip it. Get rid of speakers that allow people to hear music and you've beaten piracy.

Pray they don’t alter it any further.
The plaintiff will be long dead by then.
You also forgot click "attach a separate copy" instead of "share via one drive."
