You can't even use course location anymore. The battery saving location setting exists but as soon as an app requests high accuracy the global setting reverts to high accuracy

It's morbid, but why even have insurance at that age? Any major accident or stroke or whatever could be close to the end for you anyway and you still have the 2M if you absolutely need to pay

Twitter and reddit drive me up the fucking wall. Twitter removed most functionality if you aren't logged in and hits you with a popup about once every 0.1 seconds as you scroll but gives up when you close it about 6 times. The mobile r

I spend about 23.5 hours a day sitting or lying down and I eat poorly. I will likely die of malnutrition or stroke by the time I'm 35.

Exactly. Same with vibration, accelerometer, and gyro. For me personally there is zero reason why my browser should ever need these yet they can use them without any permission on Android Chrome and they cannot be disabled without rooting y

I've been saying for a long time. Companies that store sensitive information should be required to insure it. Want my SSN for some inane reason? 5 million^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H 500k dollar insurance policy on each one. Seem excessive? Bett

Android has really been annoying me lately. Maybe I didn't care before but now that I can't root my phone I am forced to deal with it. Still can't disable or customize to stupid "share" menu that puts you one click

Right, it should be. So GoDaddy et al would get more than just bad press if they suddenly decided to unlist gay rights websites. Which brings me to my point. Protected classes are arbitrary and discriminatory in themselves. Did you know tha

How about paying people to have a vasectomy after they have 2 kids? But that will never happen because if birth rates decrease who will support the ponzi scheme pensions? In all seriousness the resources required for the average American l

People get extremely defensive on Reddit if you insinuate that this is common. But it really doesn't take a whole lot of skepticism to see though the more blatant ones. Reddit is still a really great site when you unsubscribe from all

I have an uncommon last name - about 3 families in the world with it as far as I can tell. Some asshole has been squatting <mylastname>.com for over 20 years and said he "hadn't considered selling it" then wanted $100,0

Would the next president really have the motivation to revert it? Aside from pharma lobbying I don't see why they would. I also have a very skewed concept of how the American public as a whole views marijuana but I can't imagine i

Not just these days - even before streaming got big. Most artists have always made pennies from sales and most of their money from tours and merch not to mention other unfavorable conditions imposed by record labels. Even the huge EDM artis

If you want to take it to an even greater extreme here's what I do. Get a 20lb bag of rice, dry beans, frozen vegetables, maybe eggs. The rice lasts me about 2 months and all together can cost as low as about $15-20 a month. You can r
