- yet, you can't articulate your disagreementmonospaced
- i hate it when people push their god / godless views on me.antagonlsta
- ‹ exactly. monospace and many others should take that comment to heart.whhipp
- Mono, why would I have to articulate my disagreement? I can understand the argument from you and others, I comprehend it... I just dont agree with it, no reason to debate... because no one really has the answer no matter how sure they are. Its a mystery that will never be solved until each of us individually make that departure on our own. I wish everyone good luck. :)whhipp

monospaced,
my mom writes checks and uses the ledger. she and my stepdad sit down monthly to balance the checkbook. keeps all receipts, writes down in the ledger for anything that is a debit purchase. I realize this all makes sense to them, but...
It makes absolutely no sense to me. How in the world do people trust and manage a checkbook ledger to keep their bank account in order when every major bank now has online banking, and apps for your phone with perfectly up-to-date, almost real-time information?
- exactly, with the technologies available to us now, checkbooks are obsoletemonospaced
- then if ledger is off by even a penny, they get all worried. total madness. TRUST THE DIGITAL AGE.mg33
- old people are funny. i witness this ol' chinese lady write a check at safeway the other day. what a waste of time

talk about engineered Obsolescence. My iPhone 4 home button stopped working recently. The Apple Store said the would replace it for $150 or I could just pay $50 more and get the iPhone 5.
I ended up putting it off as long as I could and ended up upgrading to an iPhone 5 this weekend.

- dude, Scorcese is obsolete... Hugo?monospaced
- His muses become obsolete. Are you just arguing for the sake of arguing?instrmntl
- no dude, I'm not arguing, I'm just saying Scorcese is obsolete toomonospaced
- Oh ha.instrmntl
- It's funny because Hugo was sort of about how his style of filmmaking is becoming obsolete, and how we need to appreciate itinstrmntl
- appreciate it.instrmntl
- Ironically it was shot in 3D.instrmntl
- I thought Hugo was one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my entire life.monospaced

- what's obsolete?monospaced
- My monitor.instrmntl
- instrmntl's displaymoldero
- ah, beat me to itmoldero
- My monitor can no longer handle digital files if the quality is too high. My tv is agnostic, so there's something programmed to stop it, hence someone coding that warning.instrmntl
- to stop it from playing and throw up that programmed warning telling me to upgrade.instrmntl
- Ah, I see. That's the rights management from the distributors, not Apple.monospaced
- But why your display is lumped in with the television industry is beyond me. That is weird.monospaced
- thats not your monitor, thats apple, the same movie without DRM will play just fineMiguex

Bread that lasts for 60 days could cut food wasteThis article got me thinking on it. Bread that could last up to 60 days with the additional of preservatives etc. I imagine the bread industry would be against this, as they could on us to throw it away.
"In the US, figures released this year suggest that the average American family throws away 40% of the food they purchase - which adds up to $165bn (£102bn) annually."
