Went to Home Depot today to get some spray foam, and I noticed their penny rounding strategy was “always up to the nearest 5c,” so $.01-$0.4 goes to $.05, and $.06-$.09 goes to $.10. This feels… evil? Definitely one of my examples of “capitalism is bad”

Decided I had to share this magic with the world. About a year ago we decided to leave our Verizon plan and move to US Mobile (using Warp, aka Verizon). Our bill was cut IN HALF overnight.

During the recent #VerizonOutage, our local Verizon tower apparently got really messed up, and it hadn’t been fixed in over a week (even after “there are no service issues in your area” notifications came out from Verizon).

Queue up the magical powers of #USMobile. I switched my wife and I over to Dark Star (aka AT&T), and in ~10 minutes we were up and running without any issues. Totally worth it, and we’ll switch back to Warp… sometime!

Is there a lazier version of commentating than "you know, they're doing a great job possessing the ball" when talking about the OU-Mizzou game, where Mizzou, the team possessing the ball, is down by two scores.

Me, three days ago: “8 of the 10 people that went out to dinner a week ago got norovirus. How my wife and I didn’t get it, I’ll never know” Today: you’ll never believe this

“No one will ever give you credit for anything, so take it for yourself” is my personal pep talk to all my friends

Because there are too many absolutely shitty people with unwavering confidence, you should be hyping up and encouraging your friends as often as you can Remind them they are talented and capable Let them know they make this world a better place

Does everyone realize that airplane bathrooms are “gender neutral” America is not okay

NEW: Under the Trump administration, the Office for Civil Rights has shifted its focus to removing gender-neutral bathrooms, banning transgender athletes from women’s sports and prioritizing complaints alleging discrimination against white students.

How is it possible that the Max app on my NVIDIA Shield is the ONLY APP that cannot remember my credentials… ever? And it doesn’t realize this until it’s time to play something. Truly an unbelievable failure of authentication flows. I’m all for security, but this is shockingly bad.

Folding the 23yo’s clothes from the dryer because she forgot and I have a load in the washer… How the hell is it possible that every article of clothing in there was inside out?! Is this a conspiracy?
