This is my childhood relationship with The Batter Spoon.

FAAAAACK

IT’S PIKACHU!!!

This was also said in a context that included a military draft

Understandable, which is why I’m choosing to not preorder. However, they also have a full refund policy that’s good until your unit is being prepared to ship, and several notifications leading up to that point. One of the best ways to handle preorders I’ve encountered.

The hand-wavy answer is: go check the code and find out, however that’s not accessible to everyone.

The helpful answer is: The code is out there, and the launch date is far enough away that those who do understand it enough to make that distinction should have the time to do so before it ships, so time will tell.

The Rebble folks probably are the closest to knowing, given they’ve been hacking on the current app for the past several years.

My guess is probably not. The target audience probably wouldn’t be cool with it.

Also, there are 3rd party watchfaces and apps that will be available, so that code will need to be evaluated too. So, it’s more complicated than a single yes or no.

Providing something that is broken is very different from not providing it at all.

Exaaaactly this. If you can’t laugh at yourself and me while we’re naked doing fun things, idk how much fun you’re having, really.

Spworm.

This was the shit back in its hey day. It was a niche time where we could use it to punch through the school’s web filters that weren’t prepared for BYOD, because IT wasn’t prepared for little shits like me who could figure out a way onto their hidden network :D

Actually not kidding, and yeah, you’re right. Definitely used that perspective to interpret this meme :P

Listen, it’s simply not fair of you to summarize my therapy session today into so few words…

For real, I can’t express how effective a well-placed "May I kiss you?” can be. For both parties.

Yup, but there’s only so much bandwidth you can push at that frequency, so simple text messages are fine, but get any more complicated, and you’ll need more bandwidth.

Also it’s not encrypted in the slightest bit. Nor is it unknown. Nor is it difficult to detect and decode it with widely-available equipment. I could listen to my local hospital’s pager tower with a $35 dongle from several miles away.

Yes, actually. Probably still using POCSAG, too. Many large hospitals and emergency response departments still use pagers for this kind of stuff.

You know what dogs like? Other dogs! What could be more delightful than to follow a dog and, alas! MORE DOGS!!

Ahh, my bad. Saw Coke, and assumed it was one of their fancy touchscreen fountains. No idea, then.

Those things are running a web app in Chrome, so there’s plenty of blame for decisions that lead to performance hits to go around lol
