    Same here, my iPhone SE (2016) is still going strong and I can't remember the last time I stumbled upon an app that gave me enough sizing issues to become frustrating. What I would…

    At this point it feels like the best option is to shut twitter down completely. What good comes solely from twitter?

    I think a lot more people see through the thinly veiled bullshit than you’re saying. A lot of people have been wanting corporations to stop with the “we are all in this together” c…

    Isn’t the problem that the tweets are factually incorrect? I don’t think it has anything to do with offensiveness in this case.

    Your assumptions are ugly. There is no possible way for me to know an Audi 6 cylinder (relevant because quiet and fast) is going to come flying around a blind corner when there are…

    Not wanting to die is privileged? I walked to work pre-coronavirus, and had been nearly run over on 3 separate occasions. Jumping out of the way, hands on the hood level nearly. Ye…

    What is this greater goal you speak of?

    Dallasite here. While the marketing campaign was very catchy, it has fallen on hard times. Take a walk or drive through Dallas, and you’ll quickly become crestfallen with the amoun…

    Feels a step too far to assume for most people. I agree with other commenters that the new phone is too big and left wanting due to no headphone jack

    Sadly not holding my breath for this to happen in America. After they tracked those spring breaker cell phones with ease, I’m afraid human rights are already being trampled.

    I appreciate the sentiments, but I'm in a line of work where we have to track billable hours. Similar to how lawyers have to do it. I have clearly defined my boundaries, and have n…

    How are you finding time to do all of this around work? I and many WFH people I know are working more than they were pre-corona, unfortunately.

    This sounds like an unfortunate domino effect, where our legislation forces the unemployed to jump through ridiculous hoops, and in desperation to get $$ they start passing out res…

    The author personifies capital earlier in the piece when he writes “noncommittal capitalism.” The way he structures the last sentence does seem to point towards the idea that the c…

    The fact that this is coming from one of the massive, OG news networks is pretty surprising. And refreshing

    Remember when the government told us that low-fat was the way to go?

    Nah. Insane is a really heavy word to use here. Everyone is different. And 60 is really low, insane even, for the average sized human regardless.

    No food is good or bad, it’s just food. Dose makes the poison, yada yada. Please stop moralizing food choices. Is butter a calorie heavy food that is being overused in restaurants,…

    Not every American feels like it isn’t okay to be idle and bored. I guess you haven’t been following the real noise about moving to a four day workweek in America. Can we leave the…

    While this comment could have been more tactfully written, I believe the substance has merit. These drugs are classified as “preventative” [1] when they are treating symptoms rathe…

    I don’t have VR and will be buying a rig for this game and will be willing to rearrange the furniture in my 624 sqft apt to do it. Born in 1992, HL1 was what really got me into gam…

    I’ve had the same experience. I left Fitbit for Garmin early 2015 and switched back to Fitbit early 2017. Garmin has better overall health tracking but the app user experience is (…
