I ahve been rodering thing from Amazon since the 90s but my satisfaction level with the company peaked a couple years ago adn has been sliding down since.
Before your Prime membership expires, you should order a new keyboard. Something is wrong with the one you are using.
I wanted to use one account for ebooks and another for everything else.
Why?
I think there's already enough data out there to show trends between outlets and decreased sexual crime.
Nope. There is not enough data to either support or refute a casual link. We are passing laws, destroying lives, and imprisoning people, based on conjecture, not evidence.
There is also evidence that a lot of exposure to Porn, especially at a young age is detrimental to brain development
You state that there is evidence, but fail to provide a link or citation, which usually means that there actually is no such evidence.
Average job tenure is as high today as it ever was.
That seems like a pretty enormous claim and doesn't match my experience, have any data to back it up?
Here is a chart that shows a rise of average job tenure from 3.5 years 35 years ago, to 4.6 years today. The numbers come from the BLS.
Nope. According to Wikipedia: Initially self-funded by Weinberg, DuckDuckGo is now advertising-supported.
Why would a website need to know how much battery I have left (maybe so it can send more and more-obnoxious ads to me if my battery will stand it.)
Or maybe the inverse... Maybe show a simpler page (no videos?) if the battery level is in a discharge / low state.
That's not the inverse. It is the equivalent.
its time to end it.
Sounds good! Please let us know when you have your ad free alternative to Google ready to go.
In socialism, those starving people are brought up to a higher standard of living.
The 30 million people that starved to death in the Great Leap Forward, and the seven million that died in the Holodomor, would disagree.
Thank you for the blinding flash of the obvious, Ms. Pugh.
What she says is not "obvious". It not even true. The "lifetime employment" of the past is a myth, based on false nostalgia. For most people, it never happened. Average job tenure is as high today as it ever was. We may have fewer people employed for 30 years at the same company, but we also have far fewer people employed as migrant workers or day laborers. Overall, people today have more job security than in the past, not less.

So the secret to prosperity is to have a small, homogeneous population, and lots of offshore oil.
And they have clearly passed it.
Standards should formalize existing, established practices. They should not make stuff up and hope people like it. These allegycons should be implemented as image icons, and if people adopt them, and they are shown to be useful, then, and only then, should they be considered for incorporation into the standard. We don't need another trigraph debacle.
And create an Uber cartel that simply outbids the taxi drivers for government
Except that ride-sharing is not a cartel. There are no big barriers to entry. Even the "network effect" that allows, say, eBay to dominate auctions, doesn't apply as much to ride-sharing, since both drivers and riders can easily switch between multiple services on a ride-by-ride basis.
Truckers are also cheaper than dock workers.
Obvious solution: Outsource. Build a port in Ensenada.
A ferry would be orders of magnitude cheaper and achieve the same.
Agreed. It could also avoid the ice and bad weather by using a more southern route, like directly from Shanghai to Long Beach.
