I think it's a roundabout attempt to get us to wonder what the fuck Kick is. I'm not that curious.

Yeah, I stayed with my parents for a few months while I was house hunting and being limited to Level 1 charging was challenging. I couldn't recover a full commute's worth of charge overnight and would start each day with progressively less charge, so I'd have to swing by a L3 charger once a week or so. Still cheaper than gas though.

Stein wasn't even the only third party candidate stealing votes. I voted for Gary Johnson with the Libertarian party as a "protest vote". Glancing at national results, he had almost three times as many votes as Stein did.

I was 100% the moron this meme is targeted towards. I voted for Harris yesterday.

I think the rest of the article is worth the read. Apatow really was dominating Hollywood for a few years there.

What, are they running down the same presidential campaign checklist as 2016 and just forgot to remove the "hush money to pornstars" line-item for this go-round? Someone call Karen MacDougal and find out if she got the same offer.

In North Carolina in the US, we might have official documents calling it a Driver License, but having lived here almost my entire life, I would use "driver's license" in casual conversation.

I think this is a perfect idea for a Youtube channel. Maybe in Alt Shift X's style. Just go through popular shows (ongoing or finished) and recap the big ongoing plot lines, characters, relationships, etc. One at the end of each season, maybe even one at the end of the series just for the sake of completion.

I saw a recap like this for the show Dark and, well, I was still lost through most of it, but it's a good idea. That show's a bad example.

I think you misunderstand their point. PostIdent would only be useful AFTER someone took the time to rate the game. Steam does not require any official content/maturity rating in their store, just some subjective content descriptors. To do so would pass an additional cost onto developers. The US-based ESRB process, for example, can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars to rate a title.

Further to your point, I try to limit the number of times I provide my personal ID online. It's one thing when you show your ID at a bar and the bartender gives it back to you after a glance. It's another when I'm sending a photocopy over the internet and trusting a remote, distant party to use the data once and discard it. Even worse if they save it for future use and risk leaking it later.

The PS3 also had damn few games to play at launch. If it wasn't for Sony's decision to ship it with a BD-ROM drive it probably would have been a total flop. Home theater nerds saved the PS3.

No, but I remember buying my first smartphone (SymbianOS) without a data plan and being terrified that using the GPS function with pre-downloaded maps would accidentally run up a thousand dollar phone bill.
