the boot times on these new MBPs are crazy. If you look away for just a moment, you can miss the restart entirely and you'll be left wondering if it restarted or not.

I actually appreciate the skepticism of flat-earthers. Everything should be challenged. What I have noticed about the flat earth theory, however, is that the arguments are very weak.

This is how I feel about this book (12 Rules for Life). I was actually just thinking about his 'Tell The Truth' chapter just last night. It's such a simple concept, but if you find yourself lying, even to yourself, you find t

iHeartRadio is the company that nobody asked for, who attempts to shove their music down your throat with moderate success. The sooner it's gone, the better off the music industry will be.

I think I have a valid argument for this theory besides people mistaking this with Shaquille O'Neal's 'Kazaam'. In an episode of Nickelodeon's 'All That', Sinbad once played the father of Ishboo (played by

Dr Peterson's recent discussion with Ben Shapiro is one of the best conversations I've heard in a long time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRPDGEgaATU

I was thinking the same thing. His ideas aren't really what I would consider controversial, I'm actually baffled that it's labeled as such.

I very much dislike the whole mindset of "we" as this single, uniform society. There are 7.6 billion humans in the world today, we're not all going to agree with everything all the time, and to say that "we" are gen

One of my favorite bands! from their wild early days to their mature and unique later albums, Janes Addiction truly embodies the spirit of Rock & Roll in a way that most bands can only hope to achieve.

I've grown weary of websites posing as bastions of truth that will determine whether it's true or false. It's a fun concept when it covers things like subliminal messages in Disney movies, but when it starts becoming the go-t

My thoughts exactly. I don't like the idea of a culture where it's ok to think "you're saying things I don't like, so you should be banned from saying it completely". its unhealthy and causes more harm the more

'Podcast Addict' (for Android) can speed podcasts up like this, up to 5x. Usually, I can comfortably bump the speed up to 1.25x-1.4x without any trouble. 2x for me ends up being too fast, but useful if you're skimming and not

It looks like I'm in the minority here, but I honestly don't see what's so bad with how Kalanick reacted. The guy was giving him a hard time and he reacted accordingly, I even think he held back alot more than he could have.

I regularly visit /r/rust and am happy with how it's stayed away from politics. At one point, it almost brushed on it with Trump's travel ban affecting an event, but overall it's a nice "oasis" from the se

In my experience, connecting a device with bluetooth has less than 50% chance of continued success. When it doesn't work it really doesn't work, and there's only so much you can do with most device interfaces. I avoid it wh

How would you recommend getting further acquainted with 6502 Assembly? After reading 'Easy 6502' ( https://skilldrick.github.io/easy6502/ ), I'm not sure where to go after that. Awesome project, btw!

The mentality of "if your opinions don't align with mine, you should be silenced and banned" is the exact reason that I began moving away from the Left, despite still considering myself socially liberal. Speaking for myself,

"New Rustacean" is great for anybody learning Rust. The episodes are very short (10-20 mins) and are surprisingly comprehensive, considering you're not looking at any code: http://www.newrustacean.com/
