At my local Aldi, the cashiers all have seats, but they work incredibly hard and efficiently. I don't feel like them sitting has a negative effect on perception. (I don't know if this is normal for Aldi, but I mention the name bec

I have a discontinued Barclaycard that gets me 5% for gas, groceries (including Walmart and Target), and bookstores (including anything at Amazon, even AWS and digital downloads). There are caps, but I almost always spend below (have hit th

Only other FOSS option I know of that's comparable is Calligra Suite. Then just smaller, not trying to be feature complete programs like Abiword and Gnumeric. There's other good free as in beer options and cheaper alternatives to

My phone (from HTC) doesn't include a stock browser any more (Android 6). Chrome was the default, and I think it is for many Android phones.

Plus, seeing how small Opera's desktop user share is today, there have been various small browsers that have also had built in ad blockers, like Konqueror (whose code supplies the base of most user agents today).

It's nice having a nearly native Unixlike shell and its more convenient than a VM. Even for simple tools like git and ssh. I use babun and it works great.

Agreed. Even in a metro with very low Asian population, we have a lot of Asian workers in my I.T. department and it seems to be the case for other companies nearby. Probably we are about 65% non-Hispanic white (including eastern europeans a

I realize I'm losing money by paying with cash, because I'm paying the markup for credit card swipes (assuming a retailer that charges the same for credit cards and cash). Even if I can only get back 2% (there are several no-free

It seems like the three categories that make up the 100% are where they had a home before: 71% SF, 19% elsewhere in CA, 10% out of state. Are you saying that they are lying about having had a place of residence ever before? What would that
