Hmmm. Both of you are getting me very close to pulling the trigger on the M3i. Just so I’m clear, you have to buy the “M Series Converter” bluetooth device as well so it can connect to 3rd party apps, correct? Or I could just record an Indo

Yikes, the name of the website is right there. How did this post title get so screwed up. @dang can you fix the "There" in the title?

Agreed. I planned on moving my money over the next few weeks but now I’m just going to close my account. About the support, (of course) it was two different people who responded. Even though I kept the same email chain.

Which one improves reading comprehension? Because I had read this headline about three times before I realized it didn’t say ‘Regular medication more beneficial than vaccination’! More on topic: I did some mindful meditation a few years ago

Looks nice, thanks for sharing. I do find the three pieces of configuration to be inconsistent however. The first two have you flip a switch _on_ to turn something _off_. "Turn Off Quick Directs" and "Turn Off Deep Searching

The Wii is the console you are thinking of. And that console came out in 2006. So I'm surprised you decided that things haven't changed in 14 years. > So are you absolutely sure that I can buy Nintendo stuff today and get games

The Nintendo Switch is not region locked. You can play any game from any region on it. Moving to new hardware is more complicated than it needs to be but is not restrictive.

@dang, can we get a title update to include the apostrophe in "Germany's"? Or just change the title to how it's documented on the site? "Corona-Warn-App: The official COVID-19 exposure notification app for Germany&q

How do you find the prices? I’ve only ever looked on Amazon but even for new releases they seem to be considerably discounted from the publisher’s list price.

Looks like a cool idea but it appears to be nothing more than a public posting? When I got to the page the top line said "Chad S. pledged to buy a $100,000.00 gift card at Google in Boston."

Off-topic but can someone please fix the lazy title? I detest misused (or omitted) apostrophes. Even better would to just change the title to match the linked article: "How a Hacker's Mom Broke Into a Prison—and the Warden's

Yep. I deleted my account as soon as I heard the news yesterday. Thankfully you can delete your account online and don't have to email/call anyone.

That makes sense! I have renters insurance now but will be needing to renew within the next few months so I'll probably still have to go somewhere else for now but I'll keep checking back with Goodcover. Thanks for the reply and c

Looks really cool. I'm in MO so I can't check it out quite yet. I know you can't give specifics but could you give some generalities on the plan to roll out to the rest of the US? Is that something you are _actively_ working

I spy logos for GitHub, Wordpress, Adobe, Linux, and Facebook as well. Not sure what they represent though. I would imagine that most of them make sense (Linux is an OS, Facebook is a cloud service, GitHub is a development tool, etc). The o

Could you maybe expand on this a little bit? Otherwise, your comment just comes off as SPAM.

The other remaining question I have is if they are going to release the shows using the Netflix model (dump all at once) or follow Amazon/Hulu and do weekly releases. My guess is the latter. The $4.99 price point is great but it also s

I've read them all but it's been years. I want to go back to them. They are great books. Silly, goofy, and weird but very enjoyable. The world of Oz books is surprisingly complicated[1] but I would say the original series penned b
