Unless you work more than 125 miles or so from home, it's all good. More than 250 miles of range on a full charge will get you back home for more juice.

Two years ago when my mom-in-law died, my wife posted a tribute she made with old home movies, set to Bette Midler's "Wind Beneath My Wings." FB flagged the post on copyright. Two weeks ago, at my daughter's dance recital, my sis-in-law tried to post a short clip of her dance routine and again, FB blocked it for music copyright.

Are FB working on a revenue-sharing/monetisation model beyond the obviously extant copyright flagger they have now?

What's so hard to understand about the term "fake news?" A website posts an article with a misleading headline, incorrect body or both. Someone links it on FB for good or ill, and it spreads. We used to call this propaganda...

I'm as annoyed as most about the outcome of the election, ESPECIALLY since a lot of it turned on fake news as well as the Russian influence. My call for remedy? Decertify the results and reroll.

By chance, was it XPrivacy, for location control and spoofing? Or did you find something else in the repo? Cheers!

25 years ago, I thought I was so clever, inventing the "hand vacuum with long neck for getting bugs off ceiling" bug-sucker. A year or so later? Skymall. Curse you Skymall.

Yeah, the Teslas do fade out sooner than other supercars, but the 100D is a legitimate 10.8 - 11.0 second car. That STILL beats out a lot of cars dead stock. And while comparisons to lappable cars is pointless, there are still a lot of people who live and die a quarter mile at a time. Like the kids who used to drag all night on the new loop road they built near us.

Or, like me, you willingly accepted the bargain. I don't mind *Google* having my info, as it lowers friction across their services and makes my searches/maps better. I don't like the idea they can and do hand it over to the TLA's, but I'm not stupid enough to believe we really have any choice there anyways,

What I do not agree to is foreign governments or actors having that info. I install precious few apps, mainly because 90% of them are garbage, and otherwise to limit my exposure. That, and XPrivacy + hosts blocking lets me sleep at night.

I think I love you. I really needed a good laugh, and, like the man said, there it is!

This is one of those times I really wished I had mod points - Insightful, and supportive of a great show to boot!

Or maybe xNoScope_Pluto_Nubklrx?

Do you 2A zealots really believe Clinton is coming for existing guns? Has that ever been part of her approach to gun control?

Thanks for the clarification! So far, our refurbed S5s are working OK... *knocks on wood*

I have a Note 3 running CM11 because reasons. But the newest I can get is 12 and I can't be arsed to go through the hours of reinstalling my apps (even with Titanium it takes a while because...). I use XPrivacy to control permissions so hopefully anything that tries to own me through an app-based vector alerts me. If it's Chrome into the OS itself, well, I guess I'm buggered.

An S5? Not an ON5? I *just* went phone shopping and settled on a refurbed S5 for $120 shipped. All the Galaxy phones I saw in stores and online at that price were ON5s. I'd have gladly bought from WalMart at $150!

If thrill rides were a practical solution to kidney stones (jury is still out wrt human trials), then I can tell you why I'd consider it, pain be damned.

Cost. I have a cruddy high deductible health plan. I get a stipend from work but it's not as good as the old "$100 per inpatient day, $50-250 for many OP procedures" plans of yore. I'd wager my out-of-pocket in a lithotripter is far more than a SEASON pass to Disney. And after I recovered from the ride and subsequent blackout, I'd have 364 more days to forget it all!
