The way his content is structured and edited is like junk food for your brain. There's a formula that appeals to the ~~least~~ lowest common denominator and he (his team) excels at it.

The topics he picks usually hit some nerve of vicariousness (game shows contestants) or suspense from wanting to know what happens next (challenges and clickbait).

I heard people used to just float around before Newton invented gravity.

But I'm not sure. I think that's just hot air.

I delete code of people who don't pay me.

OP, can I get a tagged version of this so I can freely send it around while properly crediting your work?

I think the only anime I've seen that I refer to by its Japanese name is Hajime no Ippo.

Edit: Apparently it's called "Fighting Spirit". No thanks.

What's kinda crazy is we could reimplement the notification LED with blue OLED now just via software. Just no one has done it.

Edit: It's been done, but a quick Google search says it no longer works. I might get bored and write one.

Edit2: This one seems to be working fine for me.

We don't like when people add color to our monochromatic text.

The joke is the person uploading a picture that is akin to a failed upload attempt.

Cue people desperate for a second upload attempt.

6 family members for $15 a month and no YouTube ads. Also that money was basically paid for by Google Rewards. The Web App is good too. I don't have to deal with CEF/Electron or any install really.

As a PocketPC (WinMo) user before the iPhone even existed, I take offense to the claim.

They pioneered capacitive touchscreen for ease of use, but I had ditched dumb phones years before iPhone.

Note XDA refers to the old Windows Mobile XDA phone and then became an Android community. I was there for that transition and none of us were very impressed with the iPhone, but understood that it would be something for the tech illiterate would eat up.

When Android came out, we went from Custom Roms for WinMo to Custom ROMs for Android.
