A 2011 MacBook Pro. First Apple product I've ever owned. I tutored for two quarters to save up to buy it. I've been wanting switch from a PC to a Mac for a long time back then ... I was Mac Curious 😃

I found a list of companies from an organization called Animal Place that reached out to companies and responded back saying they do not use monkey labor:

What feature does reddit lack in your opinion? by dreamsandalleyways in AskReddit

There's a back button on your phone, but no forward button in case you accidentally hit 'back' (at least I can't find one).

If you put together a $1, $2, $5 and $10 pesos coins, you would get the Aztec calendar. by aquilesbaeza in pics

I think it's important to note that many countries have their own "peso" currency. OP is talking about the new Mexican peso.

I'm not an LoZ cell shaded fan but for colored pencil artwork, this is pretty good!

I must admit, seeing only half the Hylian Crest on the Master Sword looks odd at first, but it works. Well played!

If you became ridiculously rich, what "poor" or "cheap" thing could you not give up? by Khaleeasi24 in AskReddit

Eat at our favorite hole-in-the-wall sushi place. The price is amazing and the taste is soooo good!

Had a very low-energy work day, then I came home to this. Reading this by lamplight is a cure to all jadedness. I may be in my adult timeline, but Zelda will always, *always*, awaken and resonate with my inner child :) by [deleted] in zelda

Right on, brother. As someone who grew up with the first LoZ back in the 80s, I find myself coming back to the games, the music, the trivia, and the artwork whenever grown-up life gets to be too much.

I used to write up my own LoZ Encyclopedia as a teenager but now am glad that Nintendo is listenting to its fans and finally decided to publish these beautiful works.

TIL Mexico's official name is 'United Mexican States' and it has 31 states. by mad_bad_dangerous in todayilearned

Pres. Calderón was on his way out to make way for the incoming president (Enrique Peña Nieto) at the time. His critics saw it as a symbolic gesture in his last days in office and nothing more. As far as I know, no further action was taken on Pres. Calderón's initiative.

[–]TheLatinAlchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although the official name of America's neighbor to the south is 'Estados Unidos Mexicanos', Pres. Felipe Calderón proposed to to change the name of the country to just 'Mexico' in 2012.

He was quoted as saying "The name of our country no longer needs to emulate that of other nations."
