    Wait, I'm confused by your numbers there. Buy: 300 LTC @ 241 = $72,300 + 1.49% fee ($1077) = $73,377 cost basis Sell: 300 LTC @ 251 = $75,300 - 1.49% fee ($1122) = $74,178 gross $7…

    I am really skeptical about this being worth $5 a month. I suppose you could look at it like you're "buying" 12 free games for $5, since you do the discovery and vetting for me. Bu…

    I kinda feel like this is an unnecessarily judgmental article about what comes down to two people with incompatible core values that never should've worked together in the first pl…

    Oh. Hmm. On other sites like plug.dj you can pause and when you unpause it just catches you back up!

    On plug.dj, this isn't true. Playlists that are in the queue will repeat after all the songs from that list have been played once.

    It even shows the YouTube pause icon thing when I click on it. This is really frustrating.

    When I clicked on the link, it brought up a page that was already playing a song. I tried to pause it and couldn't. I had to look for the volume control instead? Why can't I pause …

    I am a hyper paranoid person. If I don't check my phone, I think that someone might have messaged me. If my phone's notification light is blinking, I think of all the things it cou…

    I can't view the video here, so reading the article was valuable to me.

    This feels unnecessarily reductive and hostile.

    I was kept occupied throughout the game and I didn't go out of my way to collect things (in fact it's rare for me to find a game in which I do that). Also, quicktime events "replac…

    My muscle memory is astonishingly strong (probably from two decades of classical piano training). I use this to my advantage with passwords: When I need to generate a new one, I pl…

    The legal answer to your question is that they reserve the right to refund your ticket at any time up to the point of you actually being in the air. Buying a product at a retailer,…

    To me, the difference is in the free will. The computer doesn't have a choice; the dealer does.

    There's a fairly large difference between advantage players and what these guys did. You have to keep in mind the spirit of the machines. Video poker machines are meant to play pok…

    I came into the article prepared to agree, as I've seen articles that have more filler images than content, but in this case ... they only had two that weren't direct content. To m…

    Just food for thought, not looking to spark an argument or anything -- doesn't it seem like canceling your account now is a little premature? Why not wait and see what changes actu…

    I would hazard a guess that it's a result of the brain interpreting the electrical impulses before providing the "image" that we "see." It does a lot of pre-processing, so to speak…

    I do, and, honestly, I'm not a huge fan. The editor is fairly slick but the code base is an absolute rat's nest. If I want the power of a full-blown this-gen engine, I'd turn to Un…
