This is the technology Skynet will harvest to track down and eliminate all life. Finally an objective and measurable metric for this pesky concept!

What's the point, if there isn't a discount for paying upfront?

Will some people/businesses prefer this because it's not 'credit'—does AWS scrobble to your Credit Report in any country?

I am failing to see the appeal here...

Myself and most all my coworkers are on 40%, and obviously tax evasion is not on anyone's mind. I think it comes down to your social environment and values.

If I were born and raised in the US, with all that anti-government and anti-tax rhetoric around me, I might feel similarly to the impassioned gentleman or lady above. Yet as it stands I am happy to pay for taxes as I see great value in them, and I would generally be happy for a tax rise if justified and needed.

So, "Marmelada" and "Marmelade" are different words, and just look similar.

They're basically _faux amis_ (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_friend).

Ah but that would keep the audio devide alive, and my headphones )both the wired pair and the bluetooth pair) would keep emitting that white noise.

But that's only a problem if I want to keep them in. Otherwise Cage's 4'33" might well do ;)

Not the product itself, but there were only two features of Spotify around ~2010 that I used, which have both been removed:

* Set as Current Playlist: would allow me, with one action, to set the next playlist, but not interrupt the current song. Song would finish playing, then only song from selected playlist would follow (until I'd set a new 'Current Playlist' again).

* Empty Playlist: I used to have a plsylist called NULL with no songs in it. Combined with the Set as Current Playlist feature, this would allow me to, with one action and without waiting, let the current song finish, and then not have another one start (e.g. to go to bed, play a game, or to focus more intensely). Nowadays you cannot have an empty playlist anymore.

My 2008 MBP has a cool feature I miss: regardless of whether the laptop was o switched on or off, lid open or shut, you could press a little button on the left side and a number of LEDs would light up to indicate how much battery you had left.

> on it’s merits.

Yes, but how did you do that?

Ironically taking a step towards 'honesty'.

Feature request: donate button / address for postards.

Will try this out as soon as I have a spare minute! Fantastic! :)

I don't keep a journal. I beliebe I would find it tremendously useful. N/A I believe—though I haven't read it yet—that GTD (by David Allen) has some elements about personal retrospectives in it: have a look at what you did, what you wanted to do, compare and improve.

Again, I don't do this (though I want to) but I'll follow this discussion with interest!

Well, yes, "people who are good programmers". The point here is though that the others should get an idea about this. There will always be people who don;t understand the easiest of procedures, but I am sure a large number of people would understand automation if the idea was given to them (at an early age). Probably would they then think about it when the need arrises, and maybe come up with some creative solutions. If we just leave it to the natural good programmers, the solutions may be better, but the number will be lower.

What do you mean, send your query off by email? Or search actual mails? How would they get them? Do you mean google mail?
