A family member of mine has celiacs and we get this BS all the time. If her food is even prepared next to gluten, she gets sick. Often the waiter will say it is gluten free and then she begins to break out in a rash and has to go to the bat

Why represent the data twice? That's not minimalism. Besides, if you were the OP on an article, you couldn't tell the addition of even say, 5 points without the number itself, making the Y-meter useless. Plus, all data outside 0-4

Frustrating to use their players? Not for 99% of their customers who don't even know what you're talking about. Don't like the restrictions? Don't buy it. Isn't America great?

Except with Spotify you are not buying music. You are paying a subscription to their streaming services. DRM is the only way they can protect the artists. On top of that, if you are paying 10 dollars a month and ripping the DRM off their st

AFAIK, the Tinder guys were not the ones with a leaked Fraternity leadership e-mail that clearly exposed them as misogynistic douches with little sensitivity outside their bro-ubble. That said, Tinder and Snapchat are two peas in a pod, eh?
