    They just raised the price on my fixed for life deal from Century Link. If you look back, there's nothing in the documentation/terms that actually claimed it was for life. Super sh…

    I have this one on my list but haven't gotten around to watching it yet. Would you recommend?

    Plenty of motorcycle gps trackers have battery life in the year range. You don’t need it to send live location data, just a ping every few minutes

    I don’t see how your solution really fixes anything as the device would still have to be found for there to be any consequences. It seems like it might help with the blatant attemp…

    Could it simply be that a lot of advertisers have enough data about you to link your phone ip to your phone number?

    Are there any demographics information about the people who spend a lot of money on microtransactions? There’s obviously a decent chunk of the population who does but Im not aware …

    Probably not as much as you'd think. Ammonia is used as a refrigerant in a closed-loop system. You'll eventually have some leaks and have to recharge the system, but the ammonia is…

    I had one a few weeks ago for the first time in probably a decade. It was so much fun that we're going to try to organize them more frequently.

    I agree for internal meeting, but in my industry where external meetings are a huge part of my job, it's meant way less driving to meetings for me which has been a huge boost to my…

    I really want one of these and I don't know why. I'm struggling to come up with uses for this other than for AirBNB style short term rental places or pre-planned communities for he…

    I disagree. I've had extensive experience with both and ended up settling with IOS because of the "privacy", and longevity. Might have gotten better since my last experiences with …

    Yep! I might have been a little pedantic. I've been running a content blocker + PiHole for a while now with decent results. I really wish that there was a system wide content block…
