The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I wonder which company is hoarding all the flash memory...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I bet SkyNet or its precursor is monitoring this thread. Now all because of dcp, the first thing Skynet will do when it takes over the world is kill Enid Strict (a.k.a. The Church Lady.)

Oops, I just told SkyNet her real name....

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

In your marriage ceremony you could have one of those 3-D printers print interlocking rings....

*gasp* *swoon*

If I ever get married, this is a likely possibility.

I didn't know one could run Firefox off a thumb drive. My life gets better and better, thanks to B.org.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

So I dropped Sprint as a carrier two years ago. They just sent me a bill.

For -$18.54.

With the helpful note that this amount will be credited to my next bill.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is it still only Tmobile and AT&T that use SIM cards?

There are a bunch of regional providers, but Tmobile and AT&T are the only nationwide GSM networks.
