Nasty(IMHO), what is it with all the leather that's been going around?
But I already have google wallet.
[QUOTE=MaxOfS2D;44096579]is it truly unlimited or is there a fair use cap? here in france we get 20GB+fair use of 4G for 16€/month (so 13.1 gbp)[/QUOTE]
Ok well it seems there is a data cap at 1000GB but you would be hard pushed to go over that on a mobile device.

Well there's apps for you to run servers so I can see it being possible to hit 1TB, don't know how fast the speeds would be tho
I am pretty thankful that I live in the UK. It's good to have options and not just be screwed over by one company. Plus the country is small enough to get pretty good coverage.
[QUOTE=garychencool;44096969]Well there's apps for you to run servers so I can see it being possible to hit 1TB, don't know how fast the speeds would be tho[/QUOTE]
I don't think you'd want to run a server with that much traffic using mobile data.
[QUOTE=Sivics;44096460]Just press the back button[/QUOTE]
I know but it doesn't help much when that screen comes back a few minutes later.

Which Chromebook is that? Thinking of getting one soon.
Oh, and that Samsung's new fancy alarm app? I just woke up to it.
It started blasting the alarm sound at full volume, while the lock screen was on.
After unlocking the alarm was in the background, No notifications or pop ups at all.
I'd had to go to the app drawer and search for the app there so I could turn the damn alarm off. GJ Samsung!
But did you wake up?

It's not a bug, it's a feature
You had to wake up enough to figure out how to turn the alarm off
Which is why I stopped using an alarm clock app that required me to do math to turn it off.
Mine asks for alphabets puzzle.
Currently I'm using the Timely alarm clock in which the alarm begins ringing at a small volume first, 30 minutes prior the set time, and slowly rises to the maximum level.
Apparently this way wakes you up more naturally.
In my case, it works. I wake up, exactly 30 minutes earlier than normally, because the lowest volume level is still loud enough.
So I start to wonder why do I even use this feature.
not even a butler that would hit me in the head with a silver platter would be enough to wake me up properly.
I can go scan a QR code, nfc chip, solve captcha and a math puzzle and go back to sleep like it's nothing :/
And to add to that precious disaster, I have to thank myself for changing the alarm sound to something else than the LG's default one.
I wouldn't have wanted to wake up to the sound of a prepubescent boy choir singing "Life's Good" at a volume even my neighbors could hear without knowing a way how to turn it off.

This is getting on my nerves! That thing comes all the time when I'm using Chrome and pressing Next won't do anything.
I had to uninstall Chrome Beta because of this, and now the regular Chrome is doing the same thing after an update.
This comes up at completely random times.
I don't know how to solve this. Does anyone know?[/QUOTE]
Make sure your time and date settings are 100% accurate

This is a TENS machine, it has four electrodes that send electrical pulses into your body on command
Hook it up to an alarm clock and you'll never sleep in again
Amazon better have reasonable shipping charges to Czech Republic on that.
But seriously, that looks like the only thing that could keep me from going back to sleep.

They seem accurate to me, and they're synced through the internet.
I can't even log in to my Google account after changing the password. My phone just can't connect to the Google servers for some reason.

Leather itself is fine, it's just that these tech companies like to use super cheap leather, usually some shitty pleather, and the stitching always comes apart if you even look at it funny.

Have you tried removing the Google account from your phone and putting it back in? Or checking if Google Play Services are updated?

Want to know something important that most people don't realize? If you need an alarm clock to wake up in the morning, you are sleep deprived. If your natural biological clock isn't getting you up every morning, you are sleep deprived. You can fix this by measuring how much sleep you need: sleep a few weeks without an alarm clock, and record the times you go to sleep and wake up. Allow for a few days to allow your body to adjust, and then measure for a week or so how long you sleep each night. Find the average, find the time you need to wake up in the morning, and subtract the average time from the desired wake-up time. You should be between 8 and 12 hours. For me, it's 10.
With better time management, you could even work two jobs, travel, anything, and still even get as much sleep as you need a night (Because I know all of you are gonna think you're special cases and say that life is too tough to let them sleep properly, etc.) This became even more important for me ever since I started strength training.
That said, if I absolutely [I]had[/I] to use an alarm clock, I would use SleepBot. It measures your movement patterns when you sleep and attempts to figure out when you're in deeper sleep vs lighter sleep. The alarm clock will then attempt to wake you up when you're in your lightest stage of sleep. If that fails, it wakes you up at a hard deadline.
"sleep a few weeks without an alarm clock"
aaaaand I'm fired. Seriously though, I admit my time management is terrible, but figuring out this sleep thing seems downright impossible for me.
Oh and I used SleepBot before. I still managed to fall asleep 10 minutes after turning that alarm off :suicide:
Well, ideally you would do it on a vacation or something. Or, go to bed so early that you can't possibly fuck it up. Like at 6:00 pm. But that's pushing it, though. What you could do is experiment with going to bed 15 minutes earlier each night until you find that you wake up before the alarm clock for several nights in a row.
Here's another one you could do
Alarm clock is set to stupidly loud, on an extremely long power cord, there's no way to turn it off without unplugging it, and the plug is on the other side of your house. It's on a 100m extension cord woven between the furniture, and you're handcuffed to the wire so you can't take a shortcut

Why are all my plans needlessly complicated and likely to kill you :v:

This was my alarm sound for about two years. I still have mild anxiety attacks when I hear even standard Green Hill Zone music.

I have the standard S3 alarm clock with its unresponsive "wipe your hand across the screen to stop"
What is wrong with just having a "stop" button, oh yeah, gotta have dat innovation
