Why the car won't move

A man tries to start his car and finds that it wouldn't move. Some bystanders, a politician, a software engineer, a student of gender studies, and a financial analyst, walk towards the car.

They each come up with their own theories.

Politician: Clearly the car has been overburdened by heavy taxes and regulations that have forced it not to start. I propose cutting taxes for the car so that it will be able to move again.

Software engineer: It's probably a hardware issue. Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Student of gender studies: Clearly this car is protesting against the misogynistic empire run by men. Cars need equal rights.

Financial analyst: Based on the available data, I have downgraded this car to "under perform." You should sell it. I'll give you 200 bucks.

Ignoring the bystanders, the owner of the car takes out his phone and searches for possible causes. He solves the problem and drives away.

What I am thankful for (a modern list)

• Abundant supply of food, (maybe obesity should be thought of as a good thing)
• Only having to eat turkey once a year (poultry in general is awful)
• Black Friday. Only one more day!
• Autotune. Imagine all of those celebrities singing without Autotune.
• Mangoes. They are tasty
• Internet. Where else would you watch sneezing pandas?
• Twilight how else could we be able to make fun of vampires?
• SSDs. Because HDDs suck. OCZ went bye bye...
• Blogs. So I can post this
• Computers, I would never make it as a physicist or a poet for that matter
• Potato chips. Skinniness is overrated
• Plastic surgery. Our world would look much worse off otherwise

Screaming at the choir

I have no idea what to write here. I just wanted to tell everyone that I'm not dead and that I've been crazy busy for the past few months. The title is really irrelevant.

What is Yawn4life?

Ehh.. I have no idea. It was like 6 years ago. My blog has always been always been called this and I will stick by it (at least for now)

(sorta) Amazing keyboard shots

It's a beige keyboard! Bet you haven't seen one of those in a while.

I'm so bored

Enable tethering on AT&T LG Optimus G E970 for free

Read this: this might also work on AT&T Optimus G Pro E980. Also, there shouldn't be any damage to your phone if you follow these instructions exactly. Of course, I messed up my phone the first time I tried to do this... Proceed at your own risk

I discovered that the tethering functionality on my Optimus G was a pain to enable. After trying pretty much every free app on the Play Store that claimed to do hotspot, I discovered that AT&T must have a LOT of pull with LG. Unlike the popular samsung galaxy devices, you couldn't just download a hotspot toggle and be done with it. Also, FoxFi didn't work either (or at least the trial didn't).

Then I found a tethering app that required root. It worked after rooting my phone, but I couldn't get the WiFi back up afterwards without a restart. So in the end, I decided to get the built in tethering functionality to work. More after the jump.
