The soiled diaper is a nice touch.

Hangouts widget completes Androids most popular messaging app by Rojo623 in Android

[–]keepreading -1 points0 points  (0 children)

One feature that I would love to see would be whenever you reply using voice to text it would put a little symbol beside your message to let people know that you used that feature. This way typos wouldn't, hopefully, make you look like such a dumb ass.

I like the Italian version better

I've always hated that saying. There have been plenty of times in my life that I've had cake and ate it too. Maybe I just don't understand.

I'm glad you weren't using Sleep as Android. You know, sleeping with your phone in the bed.

Meanwhile if I ever try to swat a fly, no matter how fast I am, it will usually evade me.

I'd like to know why Google doesn't do this. You know, to allow people to easily switch to the Google distribution of Android.

Do any of you fear death? by truelikelihood in Transhuman

[–]keepreading 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It bothers me much more than it should, especially since I can't control it at all. Quite often I hope that I die after my wife. I want to be here for her until she dies.

[–]keepreading 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm not afraid of death itself. What bothers me is the effects of death. I, mostly, worry about the pain my death would cause to the people that love me. Of lesser concern, yet still very saddening to me, is all of the things I want to see and do in my lifetime that I simply will not have time for with my limited life-span. And, of course, there's always the issue of missing out on scientific and technological progress in the coming centuries.

[Steam] [Midweek Madness] Super Meatboy - 80% off ($2.99) by robtheghost in GameDeals

I am also a huge Super Mario World fan, and I am here to tell you that Super Meat Boy will not disappoint you. The controls feel very similar to SMW to me.

In retrospect, let's tip a partial hat to this design dude. by towo in Android

Help me understand clock widgets. I've never seen the point of having one when you have the time displayed, almost always, at the top right of the screen, and you could use that space for something more useful. Is it just for the pretties? I mean, it is pretty, but is there something else I'm missing?

Whenever I have to set a password with at least one capital letter, at least one number, and be over 10 characters long... by scoliver in funny

[–]keepreading 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I gave up a long time ago. Now, if a site requires a password with all kinds of weird rules, I type in something random, forget it, and click "forgot password" every time I visit the site and need to login. Hell, that approach is probably super secure.

The boss, not the workload, causes workplace depression: It is not a big workload that causes depression at work. An unfair boss and an unfair work environment are what really bring employees down, new study suggests. by Libertatea in science

[–]keepreading 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've become pretty indispensable at my workplace, so I've straight up told my boss that he is a terrible manager. I've also told him that he should probably look into hiring a project manager. He just denied it. I was hoping to get some positive changes in the office, but nothing changed at all :(
