Well back then, people didn't wear many clothes, so if they bent over you'd see right up their bums.

I totally read that as you could eat out a truck driver

What podcast was it?

They have camo litter boxes

Guys, the cheese, go get it!

I think most people here agree with you, it's just that the way you're speaking to them comes off as judgemental and kinda mean, so they respond accordingly.

The textbooks all used it because TI made it that way, they pressured the education agencies to make it so.

I'd imagine it's got weight and pressure sensors, so I don't think a person would get very far. I can definitely see the mechanism getting jammed by garbage or some shit, especially if someone's trying to jam it.

I think he's saying that, for as futuristic as Japan may seem, they also still rely on outdated methods for certain things, just like every other country.

When did OP say WD-40 was a lubricant?

Can you just imagine being able to see what is available on all services from one interface, all at once, and then start a stream of it seamlessly from whichever you movie profile page you have access to?

When I was little, we used to have a box plugged into the CRT TVs of the time that, when connected to a network, would allow you access to something similar to what you're saying. Typically, you'd be able to open an electronic program guide to see a menu that displayed all the different services that you're subscribed to and be able to switch between streams seamlessly. Granted, the biggest difference is that the individual service providers had a set schedule as to what was streaming at the time, so if you missed content scheduled at a certain time, you'd hope they'd rebroadcast it at some point.

Maybe we could have something similar, but with the ability to pick anything from each individual service providers' library on demand?

Although there was a problem with this system, but I don't really remember what it was. The service providers banded together and started raising prices, I think? But, then again, aren't they doing something similar now?

Could this possibly lead to Amazon Storefronts? They definitely sell enough stuff to fill a mall
