You use toilet paper to dry off? Why not a towel?

Isn’t that Batman?

I was confused why a package manager would need to import posts from a social network.

Why name a new product the same as a very popular existing product?

And the cover was mostly to keep the phone form getting dirty when not in use, not to protect it when dropped.

I was hitchhiking in Turkey with my now wife many years ago and we got picked up by a bunch of truckers. They passed our destination and kept going, pretending they don’t understand what we’re saying when we kept calling “stop.” Only when I pulled out my phone did they stop.

• RPAN (actual subreddit name is R/PAN but they messed up the word mark for the registration I think.)

They didn’t mess up, it was called RPAN from the start. And that’s something Reddit launched, so it makes sense they’d trademark it.

It’s not. If you’re really into pop culture and you frequently make such references then someone who is not will have a hard time communicating with you.

It’s not about internet culture being bad, it’s about the communication gap between people with very different cultural references.

I like how you and FQQD each censored the other’s name in your posts.

I was surprised, because in my memory the show ran for years and was very slow paced. So I looked it up, and it seems I was thinking of a different series (Kung Fu, 1972)

What’s wrong with the 80s one? I loved that show

How are crashlytics and firebase analytics profiting off of users? I cannot imagine not including those in an app you’re actually hoping to improve.

since they mostly use band 66 for large cells which has pretty crap penetration into buildings.

Huh, good to know there’s an explanation for why I was getting no signal inside my home when I was on T-Mobile. It’s the reason I switched.

I thought flags were made of non-flammable materials to prevent people from burning them.

I am curious how you’d deal with the ambiguity of contractions vs. ending single quotes

That’s the thing, nobody even asks this question.
