Echo Dot

Well we are woke Arabic numbers.

That’s what the priests are for.

Just think, if Mary hadn’t been sleeping with the mailman we wouldn’t have to be dealing with this shit.

Oh, no, I wasn’t cheating on you this baby came from, er… God yeah, god, it’s a virgin birth honest.

I’ll have to introduce the US navy to concept of waterproofing

You could mine them in environmentally sound ways it’s just that doing so would be expensive and China doesn’t care so they just go with open cast mines, and render the environment uninhabitable.

But you could dig a mining shaft and do it that way but as I said that’s expensive and dangerous, which needs even more money to mitigate the danger.

I suppose if we’ve got Einstein and Hawking we must have people like Trump to balance it out.

It was less obvious because the world was less connected and not everyone had a high quality video camera in their pocket.

The media could also be relied upon to edit in a favourable manner. That’s still the case today, but he can’t get away from the fact that every time he shows up, people film him, because he’s always going to say something stupid. The idea that he might manage to have a normal day and not say something insanely dumb, is just inconceivable.

I don’t think there’s anything necessarily wrong in simplifying a subject and allowing that simplified answer to be the one the public knows

I think it’s acceptable to simply say that magnets of the same polarity repel each other, and not going to the explanation as to why. It’s up to people if they want to understand that, and they can seek that information out themselves.

Also I think it’s perfectly acceptable to explain gravity as a force that pulls things down. Trying to go into the whole area of space time and light cones is unnecessary for the casual explanation.

I would not think any less of a political leader if their understanding of magnets was simply the basic one that everybody else knows. But I absolutely would think less of my leader if he appeared not to even have a high school level understanding of magnetism. It would make me worry about what other things everybody else knows, that apparently he does not.

I generally get more coherent sentences out of just repeatedly tapping my keyboard on my phone and letting auto correct just make things up…

The thing about Trump is the point of the world cup method of the world cup method of the game for the purposes of the world cup method of the world cup method of the world cup method of the league of the league of the league of the year and the company is a good idea for a while and I don’t think so but I don’t think.

Yeah, maybe not. But honestly it’s close.

Trump,79, stood in front of servicepeople of the U.S. Navy and said, “You know, the new thing is magnets. So instead of using hydraulic that can be hit by lightning, and it’s fine. You take a little glass of water, you drop it on magnets. I don’t know what’s going to happen.”

It really does sound like he genuinely doesn’t know what magnets are. What is water got to do with magnets?

I think the problem people have with the iPhone is that all of them are expensive. Whereas Samsung make the A Series and there is the Pixel from Google. If you want to pay extra and get a more expensive phone that’s an option, whereas with Apple that basically isn’t a possibility.

I suppose if they ever make a flip phone with a folding screen that would be a good name for it.

Personally I wouldn’t call the MacBook air good value for money. It’s not a bad computer but it’s very expensive for the specs you get. You’re basically paying for it to be very thin and really it’s no more portable than the normal MacBook because when you think about it obviously it isn’t because if the MacBook wasn’t portable it would be a mini desktop.

I used to work in Apple tech support and trust me the people who buy iPhones are the least tech savvy people in the world. People dwelling in caves in prehistory would have been more capable than your average Apple customer.

A good chunk of them found the concept of plugging your iPad in occasionally to be beyond comprehension. Also that their Wi-Fi didn’t have a 600 mile range and no it wouldn’t work if you were in a different country.

I’m so sick of this trend of trying to make the phone as thin as possible and then the camera bump has prominent as possible, completely negating any benefit. My partner would definitely like a thinner phone and would probably buy a phone that didn’t have the camera bump because it didn’t have any camers, if it meant a thinner phone that would actually fit in her pocket.

Either that or keep the camera bump and just thicken the whole phone out and give me a larger battery and the apparently too big to fit 3.5mm audio jack.

Honestly it will be lucky if we have anyone permanently inhabiting the moon in 20 years. The Artemis program is our best bet and frankly that’s a pipe dream.

Oh is he going to build a space elevator or something?

Even if we had cheap safe reliable rocket launchers (Which I think SpaceX is fairly adequately demonstrated that we do not have) millions of people wouldn’t be living on the moon in 20 years. It took decades after the invention of the jetliner before millions of people were doing transatlantic flights, and as unpleasant as Florida can be, it’s a lot more survivable than the moon (probably).

These idiots say so much crap, why are we reporting on it?

My cat exclusively choose USB cables, other cables are not tasty apparently. Is difficult to plan for everything.

That’s a global percentage. I’m pretty sure that the United States is exclusively populated by the lower 15%

Are you sure about that?
