This should not be a hard problem. All my socks are identical and they have their own drawer. When a sock gets a hole in it I throw it away. When the drawer starts looking sparse I pull out my phone and add another 12-pack to my next grocer

It may me throw all my Google Home pucks in the garbage can and replace them with Echo Dots. When you tell Alexa to cram it she shuts up.

If you want grating, tell a Google Home to "shut the fuck up" and watch in awe as it proceeds to complain about you being rude to it.

Historians always think everyone from more than a century ago was a dour fun-hating worker drone. Everything that existed just because it was fun or cool gets classified as "ceremonial".

Personally I just hate the transition from "the catalog" to "the feed". No matter what information source you're looking at it's just an endless scrolling list of content or links to content, all of it implicit

Not that your overall point is wrong but lithium ion batteries aren't that bad. I've have quite a few over a decade old that work just fine.

Personally I think Intel lost the plot around the time they killed Atom. Atom launched as a garbage product, then they spent a decade refining it into an incredible combination of price, performance, and power consumption. Then they killed

If marijuana were more widely legal I suspect THC vapes would take over its industry the same way nicotine vapes are eating the cigarette industry.

Indeed. I find it highly disturbing that the (very high) suicide rate for trans people has not precariously fallen as the number of people identifying as trans has risen. That doesn't make statistical sense if suppressing your trans na

And if not, and if the demand was so strong, why wouldn't a new company have sprung up to compete on that basis? You don't have to prove the reason why to observe that it didn't happen. No company sprung up.

I believe in treating people the way they ask to be treated so I always respect pronouns, bathroom choices, etc. What I've never been particularly clear on is why we've collectively agreed to cooperate with the social construct ve

The way 5G is implemented by carriers/devices is such garbage. Unless I disable 5G entirely, my phone will refuse to switch to 4G even when 5G is so weak my speed is under 2mbit and 4G is testing at 45+mbit. It even takes over a minute

Is attacking intersex people a political platform? I believe you're referring to transgender people who, while subject to all those horrible things you mention, have nothing to do with the biology of sex. Exempting them from bans on g

I agree completely; I just couldn't think of a semi-recent film where a historical person was whitewashed. It's especially relevant because as a political leader of a conquering dynasty, Cleopatra's differing heritage from he

A black Cleopatra is “rewriting history” in the same way an English speaking Cleopatra is. Oh man, a production with historically-accurate Latin, Egyptian, and Greek would be so awesome. How do you think a Cleopatra which didn’t “rewrite
