I can just imagine how upset you'd be if you got a phone call.
I get 20+ phone calls and emails per day from recruiters, so I keep my ringer turned off all the time. The fastest way to get a hold of me is email or IM.
The battery in a normal phone self discharges the same as the battery in a dumbphone. The lion cells don't know what kind of device they're in.
A smartphone never really sleep when its not being used. If you have a lot of apps that do background refresh, the battery life between charges is significantly shorter than a dumb phone. I've heard that the Facebook app is a notorious battery drainer.
I usually don't keep have my iPhone with me when I'm working in my home office. Whenever I log into a website that requires me to look at my iPhone, I have to stop everything while I got fetch my iPhone from the kitchen table. A security token would be more convenient.
Free shipping was provided so the one dollar coins could go into general circulation. When the dollar coins got deposited at the bank (probably in sealed tubes), the bank sent them back to the U.S. Mint. It's a scam because taxpayers were indirectly funding frequent flyer miles.
There is a link at the bottom of the page to switch between mobile and desktop.
Thanks. That fixed the problem on the iPhone.
Both have aspects of terribleness on a phone.
If you click on the link in the email notification, the mobile page opens to a blank screen. It's been frustrating me for the last few days, as I typically respond to Slashdot comments while on the express bus.
A recent example was the dollar coins that people could order from the U.S. Mint with free shipping on their credit cards, deposit the coins at their bank, pay off the credit card balance, and collect the frequent flyer miles for free.
Sorry, mate. The express bus was a bit jumpy this morning. It didn't help that Slashdot on my iPhone now goes to the mobile version instead of the desktop version. Someone screwed the pooch on that one.
An Alaskan man many years ago had concrete blocks shipped individually via USPS because it was cheaper than shipping a pallet via freight. USPS put an end to that practice as they could only fit so many concrete blocks into a mail bag.
So much for the "secret and confidential" sales figures...
I brandied about the Slashdot advertising revenue for months, as I previously told you when you;ast complained about my "secret and confidential" sales figures.
Nope. I just neglected to mention that the scales at the gym maxed out at 350 pounds. For 10+ years, I got the on the scales and it thunked to 350. Until two months ago when the scales thunked less. That's when I got the digital scale to use at home. Two months ago, I was 370 pounds. Today, I'm 364 or 365 (give or take). I waited to make this announcement until I felt confident that the weight is staying off.
Going out of business implies your business model doesn't work. Why didn't their business model work?
Probably unrealistic expectations. My 50-year-old apartment complex got sold to corporations several times in as many years. Each time the new corporation would slap on exterior paint, redo the landscaping and charge "luxury" rental rates. When the numbers don't add up, they sell the apartment complex. The current corporation is actually renovating the apartments as exterior paint, landscaping and higher rental rates by themselves don't make for a viable business model.
Slashdot Mirror
Casey Neistat did a video review of "American Kingpin: The Epic Hunt for the Criminal Mastermind Behind the Silk Road" by Nick Bilton. The Silk Road was the black market of the Internet where you could have gotten anything. I haven't read it yet but looks like a good read.
Do you have the number of a former pizza place?
Nope. I do have 800+ connections to my LinkedIn profile from recruiters, many of whom already have a copy of my resume in their database.

Some of my coworkers go out for a three-martini lunch on Fridays. A few might even return to work after lunch is over.

Oh, no. I was so big as a baby that my parents took me home in a bowling ball bag.
The owner of a bank sent all 80,000 bricks to town by parcel post. After this the post office limited shipments to 200 lbs per day per shipper.
The postal service used to deliver babies as well.

Can I get free shipping if I buy your latest ebook? e.g.: https://www.kobo.com/ph/en/ebo... [kobo.com]
I didn't think I had any fans in the Philippines.
A regular schmuck does it, it's a scam?

Seems like bullshit still.

Since when do USPS packages go in mail bags?
Before 9/11. You could drop small packages into the blue mail boxes. The mail carrier would dump everything into a mail bag.
Couldn't you come up with a story about how you did that instead?
I know this is shocking... sometimes the whole world doesn't revolve me.

Your dick and "I don't work - don't hire me" pics are in replies your slashdot comments moron.
All those broken links that no one is going to check?
That's lying.
Nope. You're not entitled to know every little detail about my life. I frequently withhold information from the Internet. It's called privacy.
God DAMN you're just monumentally stupid!
Shove your Fox News outrage up your ass.
So much for the "secret and confidential" sales figures...
I brandied about the Slashdot advertising revenue for months, as I previously told you when you ;ast complained about my "secret and confidential" sales figures.
So you were lying when you said you were 350.
Nope. I just neglected to mention that the scales at the gym maxed out at 350 pounds. For 10+ years, I got the on the scales and it thunked to 350. Until two months ago when the scales thunked less.

Because you're a fucking incompetent who can't even read your own shit code
If you read the replies to my comment, you would discover that I'm not the only person who had trouble recognizing their own code.
Oh right, my mistake, I thought we were having a conversation; you were fishing for the meaning of the word "alumnus".
Nope. I was wondering if you were serious about having a conversation. Obviously not. As I suspected, you're just another 14-year-old wanker.
Going out of business implies your business model doesn't work. Why didn't their business model work?
Probably unrealistic expectations. My 50-year-old apartment complex got sold to corporations several times in as many years.

The current corporation is actually renovating the apartments as exterior paint, landscaping and higher rental rates by themselves don't make for a viable business model.
Do you see any other successful people generating the amount of replies you are?
Slashdot exists to keep me amuse while I'm waiting for scripts to finish. That I get paid to make two dozen comments per day is a bonus.
Instead, you let all those ghosts and injuries from your past blind you to your reality.
Nothing stands in my way. The future is very bright.
Are you an alumnus of this defunct coding school?
Why do you ask?
