That volume doesn't really sound like speed reading to me unless you're only spending a couple hours a week reading. For me the biggest hurdle in recent years is actually locating good books, at a certain point you cover most of the interesting books already written and are stuck waiting on the handful of decent authors to put out books.
The trouble is that $200 phones are pretty much guaranteed to be quickly abandoned by manufacturer & carrier. So while you're avoiding the upfront cost you're going through more devices causing more waste.
I too am also puzzled by the supposed acclaim of the Netflix Originals. For me I was able to get into Kimmy Schmidt & Bojack S1 but the rest have been an utter waste and I'd rather they took the 100 million they used for House of Cards and spent it on existing content.
They should be sending out reminders though, I doubt very many people put it on their calendar or realize that 2-years has elapsed. Though that may be Netflix's plan, have the price increase disappear in credit card statements.
I saw some suggestion that this actually included the cost of the devices which would make more sense. Though why not simply deploy quarters to every TSA agent and have them flip them....
Or because your ISP identifies the wrong person, e.g. like that poor guy in France who got pegged every time the ISP's script couldn't determine which user it was.
A lot (all?) of this behaviour was already possible with the existing Firefox add-ons. Unfortunately the people actually responsible here are the people creating an extension, getting users then selling it. This isn't new, and any reasonable person should assume something shady will happen.
Unfortunately this would simply give someone who doesn't currently have access to your devices data. Yet another party who law enforcement could go to...
To me the idea of random mobile notifications isn't really even interesting. I already have email access on my PC, and access to hangouts what more would I need?
The trouble is no cable manufacturer is really a household name, people assume Amazon does due diligence and things that are listed on their site are as described.
As Amazon allows random people to trade on their name by selling junk, Amazon risks being viewed as ebay is, a quagmire of garbage.
You know what else causes barter economies? Currency that fluctuates so much that you don't know what you'll be able to buy with your money after walking to the store.

"World Economic Forum" - where rich people meet with politicians.
I think Amazon (or someone at Amazon, Bezos?) desperately wants not to be seen as Walmart, and keeps trying 'premium' devices to escape it.
We also know already that Microsoft is abandoning quite a few, even relatively recently phones for the Windows 10 upgrade.
Funnily enough they were recently graded F - http://www.computerworld.com/a...

My Nexus 4 lasted me ~39 months before I needed to replace it.
That isn't the only way to be an ass. Remember being told you were holding your phone wrong?

It originally started out that way but its largely changed as I understand it.
Nah, he's missing clown shoes.
The nest CEO seems to think he's Steve Jobs though he's only getting the jackass part of the equation right.

You spelled cereal wrong.

of the Sony rootkit fiasco, or back when the MPAA used to pay people to DOS file sharers

They've generally had a cosier relationship with the feds
Eh? Glass is actually very heavy.

El Cheapo Cables Inc. would just call themselves Sir Cheap Cables Inc. and signup again.
