I shared this with my team. I think this may be a Windows killer, but everyone else is skeptical. What do you guys think?

The Windows killer is "customers with a clue" and "the capability to move to modern software". Put those together, nearly everyone can drop Windows. Not everyone, but most everyone.

I think someone was like...

10 DEF GOOGLE_GO 20 GOTO $PUN

This sounds like India to me. Unbelievable they are able to get away with treating people like this here in the United States.

Sounds a lot like the people that talk kids into selling magazines across the country.

A lot of shared culture there Im sure

Dallas is on the "maybe" list. We would be so excited to see that happen.

Not even nearly so creepy as Echo Look. Get your fashion advice from Amazon, and maybe a few pointers on other things as well...

@momurda said in YouTube TV Goes Live Today in Five US Cities:

More than the cost of Amazon Prime, Hulu, and Netflix combined per month. And you have to watch youtube commercials in addition to the broadcasters commercials.

It's to compete with Sling, which costs about the same.

The reason to pay for Sling too is for Sports. The only thing keeping cable packages alive right now

I think that YouTube TV is handling that, isn't it?

Not all

Yes, it's internal. Sorry, I should have made that clearer in my OP. Although it's actually a list of merchants that sell our products, so I can see that ultimately we may want to make it public and put it on our website. That's at least a year away though.

@scottalanmiller said in Google Renames Messenger to Android Messages:

Just a branding change, or does this signal a change in strategy for messaging on the Android platform by Google?

Nope, it's still a mess with all the different apps. They do like to rename one of the many, I can only assume it's meant as a marketing ploy because they rarely change the app functionality (unless they're removing features.)

4 different Google accounts have asked me to sign in again on my android device over the past week-end. Still get occasional blips.

That would be good on a case by case basis, but I assume he wants this for all services. If he had like fifty pay walled sites that he never wanted coming up in searches, it would be cumbersome to have to add that in for any given search. You could store that on a notepad somewhere to copypasta but would still be a big pain.

I only got to read the first paragraph of the article because wired complained about my adblock. Sorry Wired, but I trust your adds like I trust a hobo to keep an eye on my good whisky.

Yup, same here.

I mostly browse news on my iphone or ipad. and the "reader" view typically gets around that.

@Dashrender @JaredBusch you two are adorable

Dude it is 2017. Don't point at them.

Hey Flash, get off my lawn!

I started a new thread for it.

Perfect! Anyone who wants to post them there, I will test them and video them even, if people want!

@Dashrender because more teachers are learning new things and constantly are changing the way they are teaching, the state makes changes, the materials change. They could change them for any reason. Example, my best friend is a technology teacher, this is her first year, and she's already started making her lesson plans for next year, to make the class more interesting for her students. Different projects, more hands on, the sky is the limit! Well the state's limit...lol
