This article has completely missed a selling point of e-readers for people like myself: no constant refreshing.

My eye strain, when reading for a long time, doesn’t come from the light (or lack thereof), which is evident as a positive of backlit Kindles and other e-readers, though the constant flicker of screens. E-ink solves this issue perfectly, and with every device in that article mentioning “60Hz” on their alternatives I feel as though they’ve missed a big point of having an e-reader and what exactly constitutes as “paper like” (it’s a lot more than just “low/no backlight”).

You’ve been through a fair bit! Sounds like you have built a strong perspective. Your family sounds rather loving.

I’m sorry to read you were treated so poorly during your treatment. I hope you are in a better situation, if not now then in the near future.

Makes sense, though that just gives the impression that this site isn’t anything special. I swear there’s a million and a half streaming sites by now, and I would bet everyone using FMovies has found clones or alternatives (if they didn’t already know of some).

I’ll be honest, I didn’t even know about fmovies until everyone started talking about it here recently. I’ve just used Torrent sites for downloading, and Stremio for streaming and I have not noticed much hiccups.

Cannabis.

It’s the only thing I could have and describe as, “baby vomit as a prevailing odour, with hints of Stilton, chocolate, and a lot of pinesol in the background” as something positive.

Maybe they mean Terminator. I wouldn’t be surprised if he is working another job now, the economy is rough.

The title makes it sound like the FAA told SpaceX to go to their room, for being very naughty.

Convince some kid that they have to spend a considerable amount of their lives, dedicated to figuring out why I’m here, and how they can figure out how to help me ‘cross over’.

Then after a year or two I’d just get bored and tell them I made all of that up, and this is pretty much it. Then I’ll go possess some guy to play videogames I guess.

Thanks for this comment.

Sounds very idiotic to say an android phone is repairable, as the main marketing point, and then lock the bootloader. This doesn’t make sense to me, or most others I would presume.

Pacman was the first to simulate a real life mechanic, of munching pills, listening to repetitive music, and running from multicoloured ghosts.

Solitaire.

I started learning Dutch and was stuck on pronunciations, and I pretty much got it down.

The egg song, for the past 19 years. I always remember the lyrics and I don’t know why.

Eggs! Get your eggs here! Fresh and white eggs are heeeeere!

How could American politicians be so against pornography, when so many keep getting caught with prostitutes?

Typical. Rules for thee I guess.

Somehow they’re still sending users email updates. Not often, though once in a while they send a little update.

I admire their perseverance.

That blimmin’ witch doctor lied to me again!!!
You’d think I’d learn my lesson after those magic beans…

Yes! Very good point. I used to use an app for my location, which would adjust the timing based on my elevation from sea level - even though it’s not much where I am, the adjustments certainly made a difference!

I would link it but it is now riddled with ads, and has a generic name of ‘egg timer’ ._.

This isn’t a very good guide, since it doesn’t even take egg sizes into account. As a fan of egg, these timings are completely wrong for Large Lion Grade A eggs.

Maybe you’re not noticing the difference between 720p to 1080p is due to the decoding used. The rips with a lower file size often get there by means of compression, and some uploaders (such as YIFY) heavily compress the videos to where I don’t even notice much of a difference, however I’m going to assume you’re not downloading the 3GB (average size for HQ) 1080p film.
Then again eyesight plays a role along with display.

I wouldn’t bother with 4K usually, however once I upgraded to a 1440 monitor downscaling from 4K actually provides a fair bump in overall sharpness and detail (some films more than others), however the file size is usually over 10GB per film.
