Slashdot should be paying you a salary.

Nothing is free. Watch the ads or pay the $14/month for premium. I do, and it's the best $14 I spend every month. I can't remember the last time I watched anything on TV or streaming as mainstream media is currently producing nothing that interests me in any way.

They cracked down on personalized plates about 10 years ago. I had my firearm related personalized plate revoked for no apparent reason after having it for a decade.

Best I've heard of was another state where a mother had "PB4WEGO" on her minivan before the state revoked it.

Mr. Sam is my hero.

His entire channel was demonetized for YEARS and he never made a penny on any of his videos. I subscribed to his Patreon account when I found that out.

Cody's Lab got a channel strike for posting a video of putting fruit flies in a microwave oven. The whole point of the video was that they're too small to be affected, and no fruit flies were harmed. Three channel strikes and you're GONE. There is no appeal, your channel with 1M+ subscribers just vanishes.

That's the kind of thing that pushed Cleetus McFarland to find another platform. And he's pulling it off. Which is awesome.

I've bought two of their mechanical keyboards over the last three years and both have failed. Two rows of backlights are out on one and the left-shift stopped working on the other. I am not inclined to pay a higher price for another one.

Next step, go search YouTube for "signs of adult Autism" and watch a couple videos. Maybe you're just introverted, or maybe it'll be like, "Oh my god how did I not know this?!".

I would encourage everyone on Slashdot to go take this test. Especially if you're over 40 or female or a minority, because you would have been missed as a child.

Because if you can do it for free on TurboTax, then a Federal Department of Government program to do the same thing is a waste of money.

It's not complicated. TurboTax takes something complicated and makes it so easy that anybody who can fog a mirror can figure it out. I use screenshots of it to demonstrate to clients how to design an effective workflow UI.

Android used to have the feature on by default where it wiped the phone after a number of incorrect patterns. After three times of my toddler getting ahold of my phone and getting it back wiped, I found the feature and turned it off. Whoever decided to enable that by default, I would like to punch in the face as hard as I possibly can.

They also don't just scan one area. I had to get a CT scan of my abdominal aorta. As I walked out, there was everything on the screen. Brain. Testicles. Everything in between. Why? Is the machine not capable of limits? Did they just get an order of "Do a scan" without some direction of what the doc wanted to see?

You'd be praising this if it happened during the Harris administration. Except it wouldn't have happened.

The question is whether people will continue to buy the products at the higher price, or if they will have to lower the prices to continue to make sales. And it's not one way or the other, but a more complicated function. That determines whether the consumer or the producer pays the cost of the tariffs.

Not high school civics, but certainly college econ-101.

Even worse, there might be some patented GMO pollen in the mix.
