Damn it looked so good in the previews. I was really hoping it'd be good I really liked the original.

Haha unintended advantage to this view, I now know that Flatliners came out! Oh. I must've missed it by a lot it doesn't seem to be in theaters anymore.

I wonder why it's so frequently porn? The ones displayed on my device all have "Bubble Butt" in the title somewhere plus extras so it's clear it's all porn. I mean, I know the internet is based on porn but is that

Yeah. "Someone" ;-( No it's pretty awful how this thing works. It showed 4 videos for me that I had never heard of before and would've been downloaded on a torrent on my phone while I was sitting at my parents' ho

I tried it from my Verizon smart phone and it showed me 4 downloads that happened Thursday night/Friday morning at 1am. I definitely wasn't downloading Torrents on my phone last Thursday nor was I downloading porn while visiting

The Samsung Galaxy S8+ still has a headphone jack. I'm with you it's ridiculous to remove them. I'm not sure who is making these decisions but I really feel like someone needs to wake them up.

To be fair, it was more of a joke but this is a really good point. I wasn't intending to do it but thank you for the warning!

Plus, when they cut out it's actual silence. When FM cuts out it's a little bit of a fade in or static or fade out. Sure both are bad but there's just something about the silence during a digital broadcast interference that

Gives me an idea! Why not go buy up a bunch of these types of names then tell them that they look similar to their login url. THEN when they come to try to buy it they find you own it and then charge them an arm and a leg for the domain?!

You could make your own cryptocurrency. Just a PatronCoin or something that people just buy a bunch of and plop in an account and they get sent to creators who can exchange them for USD if they so choose or sell them to someone for more ju

This doesn't seem like a great idea. What if I just joined for the first month, grabbed all of the content, then dropped out? I mean, I love this idea for the Creators that offer premium content that I want but don't want to pay

I cringed at that as well! This is absolutely amazing tech why use it for such mundane and lame things? Especially, like you said, to order things for me automatically. I absolutely would never want something ordering more of itself on it

Your legal knowledge has left me speachless . Amazon has very generic trademarks on the word echo. Podcasts are a recorded format meant for playback that provides commentary on different categories. Amazon definitely holds trademarks on

I say using it like a "staging" area would be awesome. A lot of stuff just isn't fun to manage from a phone it would be awesome if I could go to the site, do the things that I need to do to manage everything and find stuff,

You are not alone, friend. I too was disappointed. I was excited for something like this because I frequently have trouble finding worthwhile podcasts but it'd be much more convenient if I could use it from a browser to "stage&q

I started looking at Amazon's Trademarks for the word Echo and here are a few I found. I'm not sure if they apply or not but some of them sound very close to podcast related: http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/sho

You're not alone I was totally disappointed that there was no website component as well. I also am confused with the usage of Echo. This has nothing to do with the Amazon Echo and there are a lot of words to choose from so why not pi

Aah ok you meant the pebble in general. I agree I loved how long the pebble lasted! I was hoping there was some upgrade that made it last even longer haha. I might have to do this though, attempt to install linux on it!

What is the battery life difference you mention? The lack of external servers or do you mean because it'll have linux on it now?

I think this is one of the major problems with the food and nutrition industries. Most don't have a factual understanding of what they're talking about and are willing to spout off whatever they were told by this or that person.

The more weird validation you add to something the more ridiculous it is to use. If I want to charge $1000/night to stay in my house because it's inconvenient to me but some rich guy is ok with paying it for his convenience, why

You could say the same thing about any company that skims an amount from the charges that happen on their platform. Paypal/eBay, Patreon, Amazon, etsy, etc. I'm more confused as to why AirBnB gets singled out so frequently.

My point is they call AirBnB out specifically when they're not the only ones that have this issue and that could be used to do this. They even state in the article that AirBnB is just being used as an example and many services could b

I really don't understand how this is Airbnb's problem. Why do people attack these kinds of services so often? It's not their fault people are paying through them and then having people send the money back. What are they s
