Me looking at your username

It absolutely blew my mind when TechnologyConnections shared the % of users who use the subscription page to get to their videos…

Beautiful

I’m not sure they’re really comparable.

That phones 2nd display was: 1040x160 pixels

The main display was: 2560x1440

~4%

The 2nd display also couldn’t display another app, but was limited to:

• Quick Tools (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth)
• App shortcuts (specific apps)
• Recent apps
• Quick contacts
• Music controls
• Signature (By default your name)
• Upcoming plans

And didn’t allow inline replies or ‘normal’ notification features (at that time it was Android 7).

The one perk that phone did have was that the 2nd display could be on while the main screen was off.

Yes

Holy shit, that’s incredible.

F4mi is great, definitely check out the web-cam video when you have a chance! One of my favorites

I enjoyed this, thanks for posting!

Valid point, good clarification!

$70M “vanishes” to print pennies each year as it costs nearly 4¢ to make 1 penny. (Doesn’t actually vanish, some goes to penny maker’s pockets* - see reply below)

Does the president really have the power to stop penny printing?

Maybe.

The president is to execute laws passed by congress. Congress passes vague laws.

One example is what coins to print. However, how many to print is left out, just that it should be “the necessary amount”

So Trump decided that the necessary amount was 0.

However, if Congress disagrees with the interpretation, then it goes to the courts.

The courts will ask if there is a precedent… which for the penny specifically - there isn’t really.

Existing precedent is about rarely used speciality / collector coins which previous presidents used the same method to reduce / eliminate production.

So maybe this will kill the penny, but also maybe not. If it does kill the penny, it could set an interesting precedent for future presidents to kill off anything congress hasn’t been explicit on.

… I hope all my president / precedents are correct lol.

Why can’t this be the timeline where Bill and Ted bring peace and harmony (and mini golf scores way down).

Legitimately thought this was a hard-drive.net post

My favorite part might be the conversation on the Cloudflare forum where a user reports the bug that makes this possible and it ends with this:

What timing, just added the first season to my Jellyfin

Tons of good advice here - I personally use speed.cloudflare.com for QOS issues as it will do a few different sized tests.

Always fun to share on thanksgiving: https://youtu.be/BGFtV6-ALoQ

The section on parlays really rang true for me. Our Fantasy football friend group has multiple guys who will post just insane 6+ leg parlays and say stuff like “Damn, I was so close!”

They justify it because it’s only a few dollars, but would pay out a ton. Feels no different than scratchers to me.

It also got so bad with people only posting their wins that there’s a ‘rule’ now that you have to post the bet when you make it, not after it hits.

Like Drew, I lost ~$50 a few years back and haven’t touched it since. But I’ve seen more and more friends get into it.

I’m just waiting for the eventual “refer a friend bonus and get $x in free bets” to be posted on our chat. Wouldn’t expect anything less from betting companies than combing gambling with a pseudo pyramid scheme.

Miranda and the other workers there have insane patience… Not being able to touch the POS machine when Sammie can’t work it, not getting tips, getting shit back from Amy whenever they relay information back to her … Wow

Awesome, thanks
