Sounds like an Onion headline.

So despite the hate Comic Sans gets, squiggly fonts make it easier for dyslexics to read. Non-dyslexics can experience a similar effect by reading a book in serif then a non-serif font. I hate Comic Sans too lol but do what makes your life easier.

I'm not a fan of all the white space but the content + comment layout is very intriguing! Immediately engaging and promotes contribution IMO. Will be keeping an eye on this for sure.

edit: so I signed in and it's an upgraded UX, very polished and obviously has been in development for a while. No offence but I'd be shocked if this is open source.

I work in IT and I keep a baseball bat handy in case I suspect a device has gone online.

However what a ridiculous situation on Amazon's part and it raises a bigger question. Even if this guy was 100% a racist shitbag, should he have had his Amazon account suspended unilaterally in the first place? Should someone have their bank account closed too then? How about utilities? I obviously am not agreeing with someone being racist but think that allowing corporations to impulsively take punitive actions is a slippery slope. Next thing we know, Amazon will be offering capital punishment as a service.

I'm of the opinion the "smart" home thing was just unintentional secondary, I can't imagine them being smart enough to do so on purpose.

Our collective swan song of fuck /u/spez, from Hell's heart I stab at thee.
