Not exactly secret, but not very well-known. In many states your credit score can be used as a factor in determining the cost of auto insurance for you. Lower credit scores can equal higher premiums.
My dad was a natural salesman, and could strike up a conversation with anyone, anywhere. I am very much not that kind of person.
I think I was the same with MS DOS on my XT, because I remember buying an upgrade for a version 4.x at one point.
I've found it helpful at work for things like preparing agendas for meetings, or creating an outline of a presentation or document I need to write.
I've also found it helpful when I'm trying to Google something where I need to be pretty specific and then I can't find exactly what I mean by searching.
Here's something totally bizarre that you might it might not care about.
The other day I brought up Metroid on the Nintendo Switch NES app (the one that lets you play some NES games with an online subscription.) After playing for a bit, I wanted to show him the Justin Bailey code. But I couldn't remember it exactly at first. So I tried it in various cases, and when I enter the code with all lowercase letters, it crashed the game.
No idea if it'll do that for everyone, or if it did that on the actual NES, but I tried it a few times and it crashed everything.
For reference, I entered in the code like this:
justin bailey
------ ------
But the actual code is:
JUSTIN BAILEY
------ ------
I thought your post said NASA at first, and I was really skeptical.
Just tell them, "Bubatz ist jetzt legal!"
I received the offer on my 16 year old Reddit account, but not on another account I have that's more like 12. Not sure if they went by account age or activity or what.
I did not try to get in on the IPO (or pre-IPO.)
In Kentucky, between Louisville and Frankfort, there is a city called "Simpsonville" and it's right next to a city called "Shelbyville".
My son is a voracious reader, and he has the same thing. He's 15 now but still, every so often, he'll say a word and it'll take me a minute to figure out what he means.
Especially when it's something that goes against "societal norms" like diet culture.
I find myself checking out pretty often and just making myself feel bad about the state of the world, or killing half an hour on stupid games that I could 100% live without. This is probably pretty common, and I'm wondering what other people have found as a way to do more productive things with their phones in the downtime.

I'd be fucked because I never really read books as a kid, either for entertainment or even when they were assigned as school work.
Now, if I could do that with video games or Saturday morning cartoons, I'd be good.
I had literally no context going into this movie other than it was about a chef and/or a restaurant, and it was well-reviewed.
By the time I figured out that it was basically a horror movie, which I'm not into, I had already seen a couple of graphic scenes that I wished I hadn't, so I turned it off. Disappointing because I like the actors in it, and the story was compelling at first.
I fucking hope not.
I can see this being an on-again/off-again situation for a long time. When Rs are in power they'll remove it, and when Ds are in power they'll restore it. We need something like this to be enshrined in the law of the land, but more and more it feels like that isn't ever going to be possible as everything will be open to re-interpretation forever.
I love JetBlue. I live about 20 miles from the Long Beach, CA airport and used to use them all the time. I was so sad when they left LGB for LAX. LAX is terrible and I only fly out of there when I absolutely must.
