So glad my recent one has never seen the internet... Guess it will be my last Bravia.

I wish they would attempt to do that to all operating systems, that's a hell of a wide net and I'm damn sure not holding up my ID for my thermostat.

That is a way better idea than what I've had tumbling around. I was thinking about using that tape meant for the back of couches to fix rips and just adding a couple bands around the case with it.

I love when electronics are built well enough to sustain 15+ years of use and abuse.

Hey fellow 505 owner! It really is the best damn e-reader I could imagine, I bought mine back in 2009 and it is still perfect... Well except the case, it's been peeling and looking rough for a good decade now.

Interestingly 1984 was the first book I read on it, but I agree, Fuck Amazon!

Some people, when they see an acronym, will replace it with the words it stands for in their head. A subset of that group of people get annoyed when the sentence gets all muddled up by repeated words; in this particular case, you said 'CSAM material', which their brain read as 'child sexual abuse material material'.

It isn't a big deal, but as one of those people, I totally get the urge to point it out (I've gotten pretty good at looking past it but it's still a bit of a compulsion).

Obviously the reset isn't quite sticking, otherwise why so much deja vu?

I used to work from home, now I drive 15 miles to sit in a building with nobody in it. It's peaceful but pretty lonely given I might see someone in my building once every few weeks.

I don't remember it from Seinfeld, but it totally tracks with the feel of their jokes. Sadly I haven't seen Curb Your Enthusiasm or It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (figured that one was similar), they are on my list for if the wife ever gets into shows like that (I was able to get her into The Office and Parks and Rec which really weren't in her wheelhouse).

Thank you for everything you do to help people. I have a few EMTs in the family and the things they've seen and done are not something that just anyone can do!

All I've got on my rearview are some fuzzy dice I got for fathers day back in 2016.

When they are late, I tell the front desk to re-schedule and leave. I've had the dentist complain once or twice over the years but when two entities decide on a time for a meeting, that's the time it needs to happen. Unlike the office, I'm having to cancel stuff I would normally be doing to be there, they are not.

Eventually I'll be old and grumpy enough to start sending them bills for late cancellation (probably joking).

So hmm... The road through the neighborhood in front of my house is 25MPH, how fast can you peddle? The road connecting to it is 35MPH. I don't know a single person that can peddle that fast yet they are legally able to use these streets provided they are wearing a helmet, remain within the lane going their direction of travel, and don't use assistive technology that exceeds 25MPH.

I'll personally just not excees the speed limit (maybe it's age starting to play a role) and risk the ticket. People get pissed all the time because they would prefer to go faster than 25 or 35 on these roads, but the limit is the limit to me (until they change the wording).
