What sleep app do you use? I haven't found a good one partly because their store sucks so much.

I have a pebble and like it, but damn, it's disappointing. So many hardware features that are not utilized by the software. There is no way to hack it, no way to change anything. Even the menus are insanely underwhelming. I like their general approach to keep it a watch (and am quite happy it doesn't have a touch screen so I can turn the joke around to the people tapping on it), their technology is pretty good (nothing can match that screen and the resulting battery life) and they have managed to build a nice culture around the company. However as a customer I'm just getting increasingly annoyed by the constant spam-mails trying to get me to buy the same watch again or reminding me of the changes they make against my will. As I said the software is not extensible in any way and, oh right, it likes to crash when I need it the most (to tell the damn time!), making me connect it to my phone and do some intransparent updating magic that works half of the time when I'm already running late. There are just many features that would have been trivial to implement and I was sold to expect, but now there's no way to get them. The microphone for example is essentially useless. Granted, the speech to text feature works quite well, but it's still essentially a failiure. I CAN'T use it to reply to text messages with a voice memo (instead relying on the dictation feature, which is slow and almost always gets it wrong) or for dictation, which was my expectation and would have been super simple. Plus there was some confusion about the specs of the device, which Pebble had no interest clearing up, as it seems. I think their (recent?) renaming to"Pebble Technology Corporation" sums it up pretty well. They're pretentious. The watch is a great little device. It's tough, the battery lasts forever, it's water proof, the screen is great. But they still managed to screw up.

for one person, no. if you have millions of users however ...

i suspect they are.

so the first current americans ... were immigrants! the natives should have sent them right back.

I've heard that somewhere .... right, that's where I live! Even though this is not super genius I'm kind of proud finally something is happening. Guys, it's the future! Here! Well, along with mining-, wind power companies and recycling facilities (largest in Europe) we also have a dozen of coal power plants in the area. What's easy to miss is that a coal power provider (Steag) is doing the exact same thing, I think partnering with one of the Mitsubishis.

Does anybody find the name GIMP offensive? Does anyone complain about git? And those are the extreme cases. Some "feminist" could probably find the name Python sexist because it's "obviously chosen because the snake resembles the penis" or whatever. Also notice how many websites use black text on white background? This form of opression displays that the black people have to "serve" the whites by forming them the way you want. I know that's bullshit, but some "feminists" regularly say crap like this.

When I read that headline I really tried hard to figure out how that might be offensive. Okay. If the file extension was .nigger i might get why people would be offended. But .bro has absolutely NOTHING to do with gender. Would people complain about .sis because people *might* use it as a short form of sister, which is female and therefore sexist?! It's sad to see even the intelligent folks at google bow down to this bullshit. But I guess sanity in the tech industry has long died when Intel started funding Anita Sarkeesian.

You mean SpaceX?

or just get TSLA.

That is an old shoe by now. Do you remember that Journalist whose car exploded? The engine was forund several meters from his car. Although it's not offical, it's extremely likely that his car was hacked. (trying to find source)

That'd have been awesome.

Wait a minute, I forgot that they can't break into Linux, that's why it's the top choice for extremists ;-)

They are very welcome to look at my programs that don't even compile, crappy website and a whole lot of pictures of my cat. I'm an extremist, you know? They absolutely need to waste your tax money on me, it's for national security.
