Except the part where you can physically mute the mic on the Home. Not sure that can be done with Amazon's devices.
[] I didn't know how to pay my credit card bill at first! I looked at the bill for a number or a website, and there was nothing. It turns out I just had to transfer money from my checking account to the card/loan account on my bank's website. It wasn't very intuitive.
[] That map is wrong. IndoChina was colonized by the French not the Brit
[] I felt the same when I first discovered SOAD around your age, as none of my friends had ever heard of them and most of them were like "wtf is this shit" when I showed them their music.

I'm glad that SOAD isn't as obscure as I had thought it to be :)
[] For topic 1: That is how my wife starts every conversation. I try to explain to her that she can't lead with a paragraph consisting solely of pronouns, seeing as how the person on the other end has no clue what nouns they actually refer to.

I do not sleep well over the issue.
[] Do you regret your username?
[] In mother Russia, position hears you.
[] Sport?
[] The article says right at the top that this was all false in the 2 updates.
[] I just realized cross stitching was probably the first iteration of pixel art
[] Where someone hides in the course and the rest of the team tries to find them. The hiding person has to get each person alone and kill them all systematically before he is found and murdered.
[] This sounds exactly how I imagined it.
[] Less degrees = more h1bs and outsourcing. The answer is to nationalize the system. The government already dishes out a crazy amount of money to these places, and it's already really ridiculous payment structures. If the US nationalized health care and education, the normalized the cost to fit other first world nations, we'd reclaim about 30% of our annual GDP on a low end estimate. Lowering the barrier to entry would already devalue the degree by making it less rare, which is exactly what the institutions do not want. College isn't hard, it's just tedious and expensive. A lot more people would have an education if it wasn't so expensive.
[] Loved him in Miami Vice.
[] Not this meme again
[] buyemaillis
[] Well go on ahead and fuck yourself then.
[] I find throwing in a random death, especially the death of the main character, rarely improves the story. I can actually think of a few times where killing off the main character would have undermined the whole point of the story, and even some cases where that actually happened.
[] Went into a store to buy a new backpack because the zip on mine broke while I was out. I made small talk on the subject with the cashier while he was scanning it.
He asked me if I wanted a bag for the replacement bag.
[] The article talks about rules in the UK, not the US, but the concept of making things identifiable are similar. Yet, the way healthcare works in the US is, most healthcare IT systems are disjointed and isolated at worst, and able to share individual records at best, for the purposes of care. There's no effort to collect all medical records en masse, and it's still virtually impossible. I used to work for a company that accounts for ~50%, maybe more, of all medical records for every American, so my info comes from experience.

However, research can be done on these "individual" databases with reporting tools, and qualified healthcare professionals can go through, slice and dice, and identify patterns to improve treatments for their patients or people as a whole. Obviously, data may need to be anonymized if such research is shared, but it's still quite simple to compare records without actually identifying an individual patient. Attempting to do so without a medical or technical reason gets you fired very quickly.
[] Lost- Amir.
He's a really talented French singer. I can't find a link to the song on YouTube, but it's definitely on Spotify.
[] German efficiency though.
[] I worked at Taco Bell for years, and heard some really dumb questions. But my absolute favorite:

Customer: "what's a cheese roll?"
Me: "it's a small tortilla, with melted cheese, rolled up."
Customer: "oh, cool. What's in that?"
Me: "it's a small tortilla, with melted cheese, rolled up."

WTF??!? Lol
[] Except almost everyone on reddit can afford a boat, maybe with a little bit of time to save money.
[] Bummer about the house but good on you for getting on with your life. I admire people who can pull it together in difficult circumstances and maintain a positive outlook, and not wallow in a victim mentality. Easier said than done but you sound like you're on the way. Take care and look after yourself....
