The biggest productivity enhancer is more resolution, because even today fucking NOBODY gets multi-monitor working right. Not nVidia, not AMD, not Microsoft, not Apple, and not Linux.

Last PROPERLY working multi-monitor setup was on SGI hardware.

LOL, nope. Apple had multi-monitor systems in the 80s and they worked just fine.

Uber has its bad points but what it does is empower citizens to do things that will make them some extra money, If you are willing to drive people after work then go ahead, if you want to make a career out of it that is good too.

LMAO. No one will ever make a career out of driving for Uber, even full time. Most cabbies don't make a lot per shift either, and Uber wants to try to be cheaper than a hailed cab? Won't ever happen.

There is also similar sites where you can rent your home. The cities are cracking down on this because it could be considered hotelling.

That's because it is hotelling. A lot of AirBNB seems to be people renting out apartments they don't own in contravention of local health and safety codes. Those codes are there for a reason. The rest are renting out their own condos illegally and in contravention to the terms of the condo corporation they agreed to & signed when they bought the place.

That is ride sharing. Uber, Lyft, and the others are arranging drivers for hire. Just pointing out the obvious here.

Correct. Uber is, in most jurisdictions, an unlicensed jitney cab. And there's a reason they were outlawed in most places decades ago.

and drink a huge amount of water: i get through about a litre an hour. this is *important* because otherwise i find i really really suffer the next day (which shows in my inability to do the yoga, which is precisely why i do it, to check that my body's not full of toxins. as far as yoga's concerned: spirituality be buggered, i want to know if my body's ok!!)

A liter of water an hour is at the far end of overkill. Tour de France riders go through an average of 7 per day, and they're doing high range cardio.

As for the "toxins" comment, just LMAO.
