  1. No, it doesn't. Charge circuitry is based on battery level, not device usage. Guy was full of crap and I would have left them a shitty review naming him except he otherwise was like a very nice grandpa.
  2. I had a very well-meaning old male flight attendant (think your most beloved grandpa) announce on the PA of a flight last month that flight mode was to reduce power draw and reduce the chance of lithium battery fires in flight. I overheard him talking to a passenger after and confirming it when the passenger was like "really? I never knew that!"
  3. Subscription fees from dumb people. There are a loooooot of dumb people. Same way Netflix makes money, except with better content.
  4. Shame on you
  5. It's a theft deterrent. Stores in the US are increasingly going that route as well in high crime areas.
  6. We already knew that.
  7. Negged
  8. As much bluster is going around, thinking EU/Euro/NATO is going to not be a continued partner of the US (or vice versa) is not going to happen. The common enemy and the elephant in the room is still China and Russia, and the easy reality is only a combined US/NATO group can effectively compete as a unified face. f you want to diversify, you need to diversify into the "other side" to be diverse. US and EU are the same ship.
  9. I put in a limit sell at $200.
  10. They've been trying to reach him about his car's extended warranty.
  11. All the parking will be a zoo.

    Terry Black bbq opening a Nashville location second half of the year. Shotgun Willy's is the current closest thing to bbq. Mid Feb will be really cold, be prepared. Hai Woon Dai for some good Korean. Back to Cuba for some good Cuban. Edessa for Turkish. That entire segment of 41a going SE out of town is chock full of immigrant restaurants. Lane Motor Museum is cool if you're into cars. Rosie up in Hendersonville is good modern American. Smiley Thai, either location, is about the only decent Thai or sushi I've found.
  13. 20 times per month, but is that distributed evenly across the month, or can it be 20 times in one day? Asking for a friend.
  14. Always get in on the ground floor. Hurts less when you fall.
  15. My cost basis is $6, (lfg?)
  16. So kind of like every day.
  17. RFX is the only good one so far.
  18. At least with Google/Android, it tries to be too smart and will display a spoofed number as a business name if Google finds it in an address book. This is really dangerous as it makes spoofed numbers that would normally be unknown to you (not one of your contacts at all) show up as a legitimate business name on your caller ID. It makes spoofed numbers appear to be a legitimate contact. (And yes the scammers are definitely spoofing numbers that make them seem more legit not just any random phone number.) For example, I got scam called by a spoofed number that displayed as New York City Police Department 26th Precinct this week, and by a number that displayed as Kaiser Permanente Panama City Medical Center last month.
  19. Pussy: Undefeated
  20. Because you didn't post the pics here.
  21. I like to season 1-2 days ahead, but that's my preference. It's a lot of thickness for salt to permeate.
  22. Seattle Team sends their regards.
