"The old way of watching TV" is dying, and TV itself is just aging, and finding its place among Internet options it seems. It's now just another option among many, but I don't see that as meaning it will "die"

If this is the case, it's very sad that the relationships he values the most come with the caveat that he can't be vulnerable around those people. He's not allowed to fail before them. Not able to ask them for help when in

But in this article, he makes it seem as tho his failures were due to career choice, bad mortgages, age, etc. When in reality, it could simply have been self-respect, maybe stubbornness or pride. I just think this article may have been un

He has 8 kids. 6 grown and moved on. Not one of them refused to let him be homeless? Had a couch for him to sleep on? A computer to search for jobs on?

In the App Store, I've seen the "only on iOS" category, maybe he wants to get in there.

There are already many tools that convert any image to pure CSS if you are interested in doing this. As well as using base64 in the img source, and javascript+canvas. I suppose the value in doing this is that maybe an image could go right

I like it. And I always wondered why a programming language couldn't exist to work as follows: Start Run at 60 frames per second and do Clear the screen Draw a rectangle at (10,10) with size (100,50) and rotate it 20

YES! That's the one I was thinking about too. I remember making some simple games in this as a kid and I learned a lot of assembly using this at the time also because, if I recall, you actually referenced registers and such right in

LOL, yes, this is exactly what I did. It felt like I wasn't supposed to be seeing what I was seeing, like the software was some kind of funny inside joke at Mozilla or something. All I could think after that was - Is Random Cat funny?

I've gone back to Thunderbird and IMAP because of this. Hide text formatting buttons??? Teeny-tiny reply windows? I'm not sure what assumptions they were making, but it feels like they want me to use Gmail like it's Twitter.

I upgraded the instant I saw it for 2 reasons: 1) I've been wanting a way to PAY for this service for a long time now so I know it's there year after year. I'm super happy to give them $5 per month. 2) I wanted pretty backgr

It's probably just the way it generates the random seed. Edit: Oops, posted before reading other posts - this appears to be the general sentiment.

This is really just an example of why there are SO MANY contact management apps. It's not a one-size-fits-all industry by any means. 1) The data. This is usually just a spreadsheet, simple table, or CSV of names and emails, phone numb

Yes, this is frustrating me as well. I have confidence it will get resolved. I noticed that on my phone, it has actually vanished from notifications at the moment and yet it's been there all day, so maybe something is already underway

I believe it. I love the Yahoo homepage. And when I'm with a group and someone mentioned something obscure... just about everyone mutters - "oh yeah, I saw that on Yahoo." Keep in mind, these are not a geeky bunch, I'm

It has the feeling of literally giving away my credit card to someone. I'm not sure that's a good thing. Plus, I don't know anyone anywhere anymore that's confused by a few credit card fields. Plus, tabbing from the num

Human beings only have so much time before all common names, names for things in general, are used up and trademarked. A brick wall in "naming stuff" WILL be hit sooner than later.

This is kind-of my point. Nothing is desirable about the heat or sleeping outside. What IS desirable is having situations where I'm forced to converse with neighbors and live among them instead of separated from them. It just might

Excellent point. In some cases it could definitely be squeezing more people together - but under the reverse circumstances.

Right, but my point was not intended to be specifically about A/C, but innovations that keep us from physically being with each other in general. You might argue that we know our neighbors MUCH less now because we don't see them

While reading this I couldn't help but think that the primary motivation for inventors, decade upon decade, century upon century, has been to devise machines and tools to keep us from going outside and being among fellow humans. Air-co

Well... how about that :) Never even thought about the phrase before. No edits, I'll leave my error for fun and learning.

I agree, but can't help but wonder if the "me" from 20 years ago would have found this very confusing while I was learning to program. I learned from books with all that long-winded banter - so now I'm not sure if I act

It took one search for some css help I needed and I already switched back to Google. I don't have time to see if DDG knows the answer yet. I just need the answer and Google gives it to me.
