You had me read that entire post for that? Huh! Some folks are just no darned good!

Like me, for instance. I told that to my wife, and now she's mad at me!

But only a little bit.

Nothing, these are stored on non-volatile memory like hard drives, flash drives, SSD, optical media, etc. The only "electron penalty" is for holding stuff in RAM.

I want one of those 160 GB SSDs for $300 CA. Amazon wants nearly $500 US.

That being said, your absolutely right!

Blondes (or Brunettes, even redheads) With Hammers...

Carol and Donna, were doing some carpentry work on a Habitat for Humanity house. Carol, who was nailing down house siding, would reach into her nail pouch, pull out a nail and either toss it over her shoulder or nail it in.

Donna, figuring this was worth looking into, asked, “Why are you throwing those nails away?”

Carol explained, “When I pull a nail out of my pouch, about half of them have the head on the wrong end and I throw them away.”

Donna got completely upset and yelled, “You moron! Those nails aren't defective! They're for the other side of the house!”

AddBlocker or something similar should help.

What kind of plan is this?!
I might be a bit spoiled, but I haven't seen a limited data plan in about 10 years. Is it really so bad where you live?
