So I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 that has been absolute dogshit since the Lollipop upgrade. Everything runs incredibly slow. Apps take forever to open and load. Deleting texts just hangs for quite a while. Anyone have any experience with this or know a fix?

I'm trapped in East Coast monogamy hell. But I have a completely irrational fear of earthquakes. So there's that.

Sounds like paradise.

I don't think he's shitting on them for being too liberal. He's shitting on them for being dumb as shit.

I would take any process, mantra or paradigm over this wild west shit I have at my office now. Not because I have to work with other people or code bases that are horrid (I work mostly alone) but because probably 75% of my projects never see the light of day. Our business analysts are so...

Well his contract is probably not valid like most everyone else's over there but Gavin looks like he's going to get removed himself. Or in a strange twist maybe his is one of the few that actually is a valid contract and they can't get rid of him even after Gavin is gone.

I guess an argument could be made that if he didn't take money from tres comas he never would have been there to accidentally put a bottle of tequila on a delete button, but then again none of them probably would have been there because they had no money. Erlich set up the entire double A...

We are just arguing how severe the reaction will be. I'm saying I don't think this final season ending cliffhanger fits well with how the show was being written. I think it feels disjointed and shoehorned for the sake of shock value. I really just don't think that head of Raviga character was...

No, I understand that completely. But you guys are willfully ignoring the way they have written and portrayed his character up until this point of the show if you think he's going to go for that. That's the point I have been making that seems to be glossed over by all of you. Richard will never...

Monica called and told him that they already did have the secret board meeting. Go back and rewatch that bit. Do you understand that all I am saying is that it feels like disjointed writing for the sake of shock value? She's an "aspie robot" who bases all her decisions on logic and reason with...

This could be true I just didn't take it that way. Not saying she doesn't think the business isn't being run properly, she stated as much. I'm saying a bold move like that seems far riskier than she would be willing to commit to based on how they've written her so far. And she should know how...

Right, but why literally fire Richard... and do it over the phone? Why not approach it as a shift of duties? Richard is CIO and they hire a new CEO? Or keep him as the CEO but hire an acting President? All I'm saying is they have built the characters involved in this latest "shitstorm" a...

Oh but he'll be just fine with being fired in a power play. You really think it was just because of Gavin? He'll roll over for Raviga just cuz? Who's the dense one?

Hooli, one of the world's largest companies with nearly unlimited resources in this show, couldn't even do that. Raviga knows this. The head of Raviga has been written as some monotone binary thinker who is completely risk averse and she knows that. The writing that's led up to this doesn't...

What? He just told them to delete the entire goddamn thing? Did you miss that part of the episode?

You're still not understanding that the platform is not finished, software development never is, and firing the best in the world at what he does (they fired him by the way, they didn't say "we're shifting duties". And they did it over the phone) isn't a smart move and is incredibly short...

There are people who would and people who wouldn't. Richard's character strikes me as the kind of person who doesn't care about the money as much as he cares about creating and being part of the creation of something monumental. So yes, I think he would leave the company. Everything he's done up...

I am claiming that Richard is more valuable than what he created because what he created isn't finished and both of the two other companies that reverse engineered his code have showed they were incapable of creating anything that even comes close to what he can create.

Yes, yes I do. I even said so in the very first post: I acknowledge they will probably attempt to keep him on the team, but that's risky since he doesn't want to just be a cog, he wants to have control of his company based on his brainchild. Or are all of you convinced he'd just roll over and...

You do understand that software development is never ending right? And that Richard was smart enough to make his own algorithm perform twice as effectively in only a few hours, and that they've already shown the platform is not yet scalable or done and that he is the smartest one on planet earth...

Yes, Hooli wanted the architecture to make nucleus work, but that was a desperation play. There was no other option. Raviga HAS the software either way. Why risk firing the brains behind everything and having him go off and re-inventing it yet again even better, or risk the people they hire to...

I just don't get firing him as the CEO. Do they expect to be able to re-hire him at a lower position and he'll go for it because it's his baby? I mean I guess that could work by him going for it but there is no way Raviga doesn't realize they absolutely need him because he is the brain behind...

What does an ice storm have to do with how hard the diamonds are?

And you can more easily make yourself think you're failing every morning. But we are on a forum full of min maxers. People who are already in shape and have willpower and drive can weigh themselves every day with no problem. People who are overweight and clearly have issues with willpower and...

You're arguing against yourself here.

Yes you would, because lacrosse players are the douchiest people on earth. Long Island is the lacrosse capital of the world.

How is that better since you can see the same trends either way?

My family has done this quite a few times because even though my grandmother gets a new picture every year and no new children have been born in about 15 years we still HAVE to take one every single goddamn holiday. And every so often someone isn't around so they photoshop the missing person(s)...

Good one McCheese

So you think Jon Snow will reconvene with Stannis battered, broken, freezing army, rally up the wildlings and go take winterfell. Then after that he will magically think he has a right to the throne and decide to go for it and Stannis' army is just going to change allegiance and follow him to...

I agree. It's got no flavor, all heat and isn't even that hot. Fire is vastly superior.

I think weighing yourself every morning is a surefire way to make yourself crazy. Weight fluctuates every day just based on if you drank a lot of water and ate a lot of salt the day before. You could be down one day and up the next even if you're sticking to your routine hardcore. I wouldn't...

They should take old clips of Clint Eastwood and shoehorn them in as the Punisher

Man Maytag used to be the shit. I have a 30 year old Maytag washer that still runs like a champ to this day. Although I do need to level its legs because it's a little off balance and the agitator is so fucking powerful it shakes my entire house. Thing is beast.

No, now it looks like I am a mighty wizard soothsayer. It shall remain.

Really guys? It's not a spoiler. Nobody, even book readers, know if that's true. And yes, I have never read the books. Not even one sentence. It's OK to post theories if they are stupid but not OK to post them if they are plausible?

Because he wants to protect his sister's child from people who might hate him, since he might have a legitimate claim to the throne. Nobody can know, because then it would put them in danger as well. Let's not post fan theories in the no-spoiler thread

What. The. Fuck.

And Ridley Scott is making a movie out of that one too.

There's an even better fan speculation of who Jon Snow really is. And that one would be far more interesting.
