Making tech thinner and sleeker doesn't always make it better, I think devices that follow their function look great!

Doesn't mean there should be no product design, but don't try to hide things for the sake of hiding them, leave the screws visible, show off the internals, try to complement them!

I find incredibly strange that people think it's normal to walk around with earbuds in at all times. When did that become acceptable? (I know it's the release of the airpod, but still, wtf?)

I can't believe how many people I see with them in when they drive and ride their bikes.

Also looking at your phone while driving. How in the hell is that so common?

I know this opinion is wildly unpopular, but I think pirating is unethical. If you can’t afford something, or you disagree with spending money for it, then fine. Don’t watch that show/listen to that song/play that game. But the people who make things deserve to get paid. It’s not right to refuse to pay for something while also consuming that content. Many of the justifications for pirating just feel like entitlement to me.

"I grew up on this stuff." - any food that someone had as a child is now, likely, a bad thing.

I saw the new thing from Heinz which is like a Coke Remix machine but with dipping sauces, and the machine mixes it in front of you with a countdown and flashing lights. I envisioned a world where fast food places stop producing their own ketchup packets and just buy one of these giant machines because it's cheaper.

Hell no. I am not asking a robot to make me ketchup when you could just hand me ketchup packets.

Dude I don't wanna think about cleaning a machine like that... or rather the lack of cleaning....
