My bad, this is all because I finally decided to purchase a lifetime pass.

The kid isn't even looking at trump.. plus when he said "you need to shush your mouth" trump wasn't even speaking. Probably reporters whispering to each other

Even if it comes down to a browser addon placing a black rectangle over the video and muting browser audio when an ad plays, I'll be choosing that over watching ads.

iPad / tablet, and applying for jobs can easily be done on a phone. My wife works at a high school - half the kids can't even use a mouse properly,and don't understand minimizing a window etc.

She had to teach someone what the enter button did yesterday..... They were using space bar to get to a new line. I shit you not.

The main issue to solve is kids not having access to a computer at home, whether it be lack of incentive or money. Most people don't even own a laptop anymore, so the only computer time they get is in a school setting.

Once the majority of schools have a system in place for most homework to be done on a PC, then there may be some creative ways to incentivise more PC adoption... again. It's like we've gone back to the early 90s again where only kids who were really interested in computing knew anything about it.

Usually if you're involved in something that is genuinely urgent, it doesn't even need to be said. I remember being in a situation where a server wasn't starting back up after some changes while we were in the data centre, and if it didn't come online by the time we left the office, one of the largest pay as you go networks in the UK would have gone down lol. If a PM had approached us with something 'urgent' during this they'd have to run away from projectile rack mounts..

Plenty of people out there spend more money just on soap and diffusers, than you or I make in a year and a half, lol

Well in the UK, considering that a return ticket to London for commuting hours costs me £140, no, it is not the future here. I could drive most of the way from home into London, pay the ULEZ charge, park in an expensive train station car park and get a short distance train for a third of that, including fuel.

I don't even use a computer, I just hunt fish

I'm finding the sync experience far nicer than Jerboa so far, not surprised. Jerboa fails to load comments half the time and I get errors constantly that stop content refreshes.

It's strange - in the UK we're usually getting toasty this time of year too, but we've had unusually mild weather despite many other parts of the world experiencing record temperatures. Feels like the mildest summer we've had in about 10 years.

I've used vim for so many years now that it blows my mind when people act like it's difficult to use.

The same thing with installing Arch and even Gentoo .. if you've got good experience with something like redhat/centos and can read documentation it's a breeze.
