Re:Ask HN: What Router Do You Use? on Wednesday March 02, 2016 @11:11PM (#11214978)
Some old crusty Linksys from the early 2000's. I really should upgrade but I'm too lazy and locked into a great grandfathered deal from my ISP. They keep trying to offer me new routers and cable boxes just to break the deal but I'm smarter than that. I pay $25 a month for a 20 mbit connection.

Some people like the convenience of not having to have to call/deal with someone every time.

Re:Ask HN: Do you think there will be full replacement to Facebook? on Sunday August 02, 2015 @03:25PM (#9992028)
Not anytime soon. And if there is, it will be something with most focus on mobile and phone numbers. That's why Facebook is already on top of that with Instagram and Whatsapp. Facebook might be in this for the long haul, esp with the stuff they can also do with Oculus.

Re:Ask HN: What percentage of TV commercials can be considered a success? on Wednesday July 29, 2015 @06:21PM (#9971968)
I mean overall, not just me. Obviously I won't be buying most things targeted at women (as I'm a man)
Re:Ask HN: What should I do if I feel burnt out? on Tuesday July 28, 2015 @02:30AM (#9959828)
Take a 1-2 week vacation.
Re:Anyone watching “Mr. Robot”? on Thursday July 23, 2015 @02:58PM (#9937766)
It's a relevant (and GOOD) TV show that many people here (coders/hackers) can relate to. What's wrong with that?
Re:Anyone watching “Mr. Robot”? on Thursday July 23, 2015 @02:24PM (#9937532)
Just watched the first episode yesterday. Really good so far and looking forward to it for sure!
Re:Ask HN: Is non-adjustable mobile font size a real problem? on Sunday July 19, 2015 @02:47PM (#9912331)
I feel the same way. The problem is that it's just random ones it selects, leaving other fonts tiny and some massive.
Re:Ask HN: How did you discover Hacker News? on Sunday July 19, 2015 @01:50PM (#9912067)
It was mentioned on Snapzu, a similar community.
Re:Let's talk content. AMA on Thursday July 16, 2015 @08:14PM (#9900674)
Go to Voat if you want the free speech (also some of the bad hate that comes with it) in a nice little familiar package (it's almost identical to reddit.)

Go to Snapzu if you want more than a clone that has some rules (no hate) and a solid community, but most importantly tries to innovate and not just copy reddit.

Go to Hubski if you want a civil place to discuss things without all the flashy pictures and what not.
