If you awoke today from a ten-year coma, what is the first thing you would do?

We had those things, but they're way better now. I bet with your 90s cell phone you couldn't stream movies, get turn-by-turn gps directions, record at 1080p, download and use over 500,000 applications.. You get the point.

Fundamentally we basically have the same stuff, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be insanely mind-blowing.

Yeah, I was just messing with you :)

Cooking food tastes way better, but the convenience usually wins for me.

I want truffled caviar on top of a whole quail, triple cooked, served with a side of diamonds.

All for $3 or less. Also, don't hold back on the healthiness.

Best I could do in the tiny time-frame.

Well it was meant to be funny, but it also happens to be true.

Do you make the Stouffer's Sautes for One? I'd really like to try it.

It wouldn't return a □, it would return a 404 straight away ;)

Either way, to have to assume that makes the novelty account rather pointless.

404 is for not found, it's got nothing to do with corrupted/incorrectly formatted text.

Are you sure that site is safe? I've never heard of it.

Sounds about right.

Not when you live in Australia :(

Yep, that's right. I live in Australia, and things must be advertised to include GST. It's handy to know that if you only want, for example, a few things, you can get the exact/close amount ready before you get to the checkout. In the US, tax is added and the amount varies by state, and isn't always easy to calculate on the spot (especially if it's like, 8% or something). Wastes time at the checkout when you have to then find the correct(ish) change.

jumbleton · 4 days

Yeah. That's true, but if you're in the states for a while, you're bound to eventually try different things, including McD's. Especially considering how cheap it is over there.

Damn you, Norway. You're the only country higher than Australia on the Human Development Index rankings.

Makin' us look like some sort of ghetto.

Good suggestions but I'd rather keep my whole identity offline with someone I trust, like my parents or siblings as a copy than with online corporations, regardless of encryption or their "trustworthiness".

Credit cards can also be replaced.

All you really need is a fireproof, waterproof, everything proof underground safe built into the building's slab or whatever. Otherwise, yeah, a copy of your birth certificate at your parent's, friend's or someone else's house that you trust.

It's a few days, like 48 hours or something.

If you fail, you can ask. But you haven't failed yet, so you don't need to think about that!

Australia here also. Can access both wikileaks.org and thepiratebay.se. No problems.

TPB was down for a while for me (as everyone) but is back up.

With Telstra in canberra.

I guess he probably needed someone to hang around with him while he played Mario from then on?

Per person, yeah, but we only have 22 million-odd people, we hardly make a huge impact on the world.

Not saying it's good for us to pollute the environment or anything, it's just until the huge polluters such as China, India and the USA start cutting their emissions, I don't see the point in a tiny country like Australia in doing it.

Edit: Apparently everyone disagrees with this. I'm trying to say that while it's good we ARE doing things for the environment, our gross input to the global scheme of things isn't very big. Yes, we can set an example, but will other countries even care to try?

Go try and encode/export a video on an i3 and then do it again on an i7. Any i3 and any i7. It will take way longer on the slower processor. Add more ram? Won't do shit unless you had hardly any ram to begin with.

You're not new but don't know of Bad Luck Brian? Okay then.

May I direct you to /r/trees?
