> the RNC said it felt the telecom agency should clear the way for organizations — including, apparently, itself — to auto-dial directly to voicemail inboxes with prerecorded pitches. Failing to permit the practice, the RNC warned, could threaten the First Amendment rights of political groups. > “Political organizations like the RNC use all manner of communications to discuss political and governmental issues and to solicit donations — including direct-to-voicemail messages,” the RNC told the FCC. “The Commission should tread carefully so as not to burden constitutionally protected political speech without a compelling interest.” The gall. The fucking GALL of these people...

I will gladly pay for the "luxury" of owning my own car simply to avoid playing Let's Scan For Vomit/Urine/Feces/Cum/Spit every single time that I enter a vehicle.

Hell, I bought a four dollar case (on sale for half off) on Monoprice. I've dropped my iPhone SE at least a dozen times and it's still fine. Even if you don't want to buy a great case, ANY case is better than nothing.

Ah yes, I'll just shoot this URL to my nephew. I'm sure his parents will be pleased.

Our customers are just waiting for the tenth anniversary edition. Yep. Nothing to see here.

You should have given the poor guy an old keyboard, the WebTV had a PS/2 input. Then again, it sounds like you would have been doing the web a disservice...

My nephew is pushing the boundaries of what can be accomplished with Scratch. It was my intent to get him into Python next but what would you suggest instead?

Just assume that every single email that you send is eventually being copied to every single person in the company. Problem solved.

$30 for that?! Just spend $8 on the actual part that needs replaced. http://www.mcmelectronics.com/...

> Google has likely registered the sound clip from the ad to disable unwanted Home triggers, as it does with its own Google Home commercials. This leaves me wondering if the actors from these commercials are unable to use the service. "OK, Google. *ahem* OK, Google. HEY! OK, GOOGLE! Dammit, it's really me this time!"

Honestly, discovering that a few inches of duct tape could keep the memory expansion pack from wiggling and dumping all of the work that I'd keyed into my ZX81 is by far my fondest computer memory. The sheer JOY of realizing that I'd only have to pound a program into that hellish little keyboard once...

How DARE you?! I want my kid to grow up to be Steve Wozniak.

My experience with "iPhone people" is that they are very mildly concerned with their phone being able to run the latest OS and _very_ concerned with their phone being able to run the latest incarnation of Messages. Keeping iMessage up to date literally drags the rest of the OS along for the ride.

I'm still using the same keyfob that I got when they were first offered. eBay still asks for the code but a year or two ago Paypal changed their setup. Now when I log in to them I have to type in my password with the code tacked onto the end. (example: password123456) Perhaps your email client ate the memo?

My favorite show as a kid was The Transformers. If we're to be honest it was first and foremost a half hour commercial for the Hasbro toy line. This is nothing new.
