And my microwave oven goes to 99:99

Well, who's an idiot if a law like that actually gets passed?

I think he got it just right.

I'm probably one of the few people here who prefers open floor layout. When I'm working on something not totally exciting presence of people next to me keeps me a bit more concentrated on my work. If I'm alone in my corner my mind tends to wander off or just turn off. Being in the cubicle after lunch with somewhat boring coding task will get me dozing off. But separate office is the worst: I need increasing amounts of coffee to stay awake.

You could probably diagnose me with ADD though. So how rare am I?..

Can I stay ignorant and just get umbrella deposit -to- USD conversion ratio? Bonus points if you google what is jiao for me.

This is actually great, but it still requires manufacturer+provider to be in the loop. I'd consider it "solved" when I myself can update Android while the low-level device drivers stay the same.

And TBH I don't see a simple solution for this, considering for example TFA phone needs custom notification icons ordering to leave a gap for front facing camera up on top of the screen.

I watched the whole thing.

At least have an exhaustive list of what they collect and publish where they store the intermediate results locally, so public can keep that in check. Without this FUD starts about keyloggers and web tracking that may or may not be happening in reality.

Instead they choose to dumb stuff down.

My company requires a pin and I find it annoying having to enter it each time I need to use my phone. I installed Touchdown and it eats up pin and encryption policies, and only applies them to protected work content. I.e. I open phone with a swipe, but enter pin only to open work stuff.

I dunno, I watched the webcast and that leeward fin will definitely need a new paint job. So, like I said, I dunno about 24hr turn around so far.

But to me it's not just making the sound louder, it's also about distinguishing voices from background sounds enough to comprehend them. Thankfully I'm not yet deaf enough for this to be a serious problem in a theater. But I'm on my way there: at home I either have to wake my neighbors or use headphones. Hence, subtitles.

You realize everyone doesn't have to take your family to a theater to go there themselves?

Of course you can. There were plenty of science fields banned throughout history.

It'd be nice to have a lively company too, but 20 bucks are 20 bucks.

You're welcome.
