Why Chromebook? You can use a MacBook Air which is great, light, and you can get it used for cheap.

Who's to say it's not meant to exist? It exists. The grandparents are raising the kid. The couple that died wanted a kid. The sequence of events is not how it should have been. But it happened.

NYC will never know how bad it is until they go out of the U.S. to such places in Asia like Thailand, HK, Taiwan, or Japan and experience those subway stations. There is no such thing as a "weekend service" and subways arrive on-t

I would buy all of these too! They should sell it! It's awesome.

I think I would do the following: 1. If you have debt (aside from mortgage) -- pay it off, this includes student loans, credit card debt, car loans, etc. 2. Do you own a home? If yes, consider if paying off the loan makes sense, note that i

Exactly how I feel. I have grown accustomed to listening using all my high quality wired headphones, and equivalent wireless alternatives are expensive. Also, converting my already great wired headphones is not possible without degrading th

I don't know. But is it kind of odd that Mark Zuckerberg sold about 1 million+ shares at the Facebook high, days before the Cambridge Analytica debacle? I wonder if there is some insider trading there.

Though this sounds good, I would frown on doing this. Companies often state that any work produced 'at work' does not but belongs to you but belongs to the company. I would go to a Starbucks or some other place where you can do yo

Bank runs drive crypto up. Real estate will crash (again). Blockchain voting. AI as political representatives. Self-driving car advancements. Mobile payment will increase in the U.S. (just as it already is in China). Facebook partners with

Friend, you may have already answered your question here. There are an abundant amount of reasons as to why someone would lose interest, disengage, or suffer motivation evaporation. If you lack the motivation to learn and improve in your jo

I miss the simplicity of the old Music app. The "redesigned" music app is an eyesore and a clunky experience that managed to kill my love of listening to music using Apple devices since the iPod days. Now, I'm using Spotify a

I view BTC/cryptocurrencies made possible by blockchain as the modern electronic alternative to gold and silver as a store of value. Free from (for the most part) manipulations from the Central Banks. I think the excitement (at least f

There is nothing in this article that says anything about petrodollar. The U.S. will lose the global reserve currency once it's no longer used in oil exchanges. The U.S. will do anything in its power to retain that right as already pro

I still have the old Nook Simple Touch with a mini-SD card slot. You can load your ebooks via the SD card, either through connecting it via USB or loading the SD card manually. It doesn't require WiFi and I doubt there is any sort of t

This is not a pro machine, no one can upgrade the RAM or open this up for anything. This is suitable for rich YouTubers. Apple is now pretty much clueless.

No. If Amazon expects to sell their hardware, such as the Amazon Fire TVs, Echo, and their tablets -- they heavily market these services on those hardware and it is part of their benefits proposition. Now that YouTube is no longer on the Ec

Yes. I own the SE, switched from iPhone 6 because I knew the SE form factor is perfect for me back when it was released. I really hope that Apple continues the iPhone SE and upgrade it. It's still the cheapest but powerful enough phone

Taking the counter and leaving in 3 months = burning bridges. They expect you to stay for the long haul. However, as stated, they can also hire you back as a consultant. They are doing all of this so they can cover their a with replacing
