Does Samsung/Apple make 2-year dispossable products? Other manufactures?






Products so that they start failing in 1-2 years and you have to upgrade?

I know it kinda sounds stupid but most phones I see start acting up after about 2 years. Some might say it ia because people install more and more demanding software but many times people keep the same software and dont add other crap. Factory reseting/reinstalling OS does not do much either.

What do you guys think? What have been your experiences?

They should have just kidnapped Dom's sister and kill Bryant. It just feels soooooo out of character for Bryant to not help his family on such and important moment. Using a death+kidnapping would had fixed that problem.

Also, the baby's name should have been Paul and not Bryant. It would have been a better homage.

They'll never remove the feature.

If you're dumb enough to record or livestream yourself committing crimes, good. The recording/livestream will make a conviction that much easier.

Let's not be just as dumb as them and assume the crimes wouldn't have been committed because they lacked the ability to livestream.

Facebook's next move is easy, wait for the warrant and cooperate.


That's really not the issue, it's more that it encourages shit like this. It's kinda like how school shooters have encouraged others to be school shooters.

If you're commuting for 2 hours each way and taking out a tablet is too inconvenient idk what to say

Big crowd. A big part of that time is standing up with a person next to me in all 4 of my sides. It is very difficult to read a tablet in that way (and one hand must be grabbing the handrails anyway), plus it involves many train/bus transfers so even if I get lucky and get a seat, in just a few moments I will end up having to put the tablet in my bag and do it all over again. That is why a phone is ideal for this since it is already always in my hand. I think NYC is getting more and more crowded.

Guys, I have a 2 hour commute every day. What I mostly want is do sonething useful in those 4 hours of my life.

I honestly think just browsing gamefaqs and facebook (not posting much in either) is the majority of my phone use. It is very wasteful.

Besides talking to my girl and like 3-4 people I usually text/chat, my phone is not used.

Today I got the closest to behing hit by a car ever.

It was my light, cars were lined up across the intersection and I was on the middle of the road then suddenly the first car (a freaking teenager with very loud music) just accelarated and crossed in red, right in front of me.

I guess he got tired of waiting for the light. Didnt care who he would hit.


Anyway, terrorists with some crazy ideal are not what will destroy us, it is the random assholes that just act without regard for the society as a whole.

I feel like I waste too much of my idle time (commute, while just laying in bed, etc) visiting an online forum. I wanna do something productive with it but all that comes to mind is tutorial videos on Youtube or those online course sites BUT the problem is that many times videos are not convenient when I am not going to watch them an extended period of time plus they are hard to watch on trains/buses.

What can I do instead? Is there any free site with free courses but that are mostly reading based, no videos?

I've taken two courses in statistics, so this is easy.

If at least one of the two children is a girl, then the only possible choices are two girls and one boy and one girl. That is the sample space. The number of ways the event "two girls" can occur is one, so the probability is 1/2 or 50 percent.

I have another question that might help shed some light on the situation:

have invited two people, A and B, to take part in a game where they can win a lot of money if they correctly guess which side of a coin is facing up.

I first sit down with A, and flip three coins behind a small screen. I then remove the screen and show her the result of two of them, but the third flip I have covered up so she can't see what it is. The two coins she can see shows Heads though. I then ask her to guess which side is facing up in the coin I'm covering. What should her guess be to maximise her chances of winning? What are the odds of the coin being Heads or Tails?

I then remove the two coins showing Heads from the table, but I still keep the hidden coin covered up. A leaves the room, and B enters. I ask him to guess which side is facing up on the coin I'm covering. What should he guess to maximise his chances of winning? What are the odds of the coin being Heads or Tails?

50% in both cases. In the first you said the 3rd coin is unknown so that removes the first 2 coins from any calculation

In the second case you removed the first 2 coins yourself.
