    "Shazam is what convinced my boomer father to get a smartphone. He had always had a cellphone from way back when they first came out but insisted smartphones were pointless. We were having breakfast in a hotel and some song from his youth started playing and he was wracking his brain trying to remember what it was called. I pulled out my iphone and Shazam told us the artist and song title in a few seconds. He upgraded to a smartphone the next day." —u/GisingGising

    "The VLC creator is a French guy and a redditor (forgot his pseudo or I'd ping him, he is very active here and I think he did an AMA recently). He explained that he always was a big opensource advocate, and he's been denying dozens of millions of euros/dollars, again and again and again over the last 20 years, from companies who either wanted to buy VLC or to put adds on it. True god." —u/axilane

    Font - surfkaboom • 5d Medisafe. I take medication everyday and this has reminders for what/when. Also, timestamps when you take it so it gives doctors a good record if you ever need it. I've been using it for years and they just recently added a feature to adjust dosage based on time zone changes when travelling. It really does help to keep me alive. Reply 4 1.2k ↓ ...

    Font - Network-Ninja7 . 5d Wikipedia. It's actually free in all senses of the word. If you want to nitpick that it's a website and not a software, well it's a software too. You can download the wikimedia software, set it up with no hassle, download all of wikipedia and set it up in your instance of wikimedia. So now you have your very own wikipedia. With blackjack and hookers if you want. Reply 3.5k
