Oh dear
The names of all the stars? 
Assuming someone named them all, and you learned 1 star every second, you could go full out and learn every star in about 3-4 years.

I usually play my handhelds when I'm at home, and my consoles when I'm on the road.

My tablet under the direction of Google has been giving me notifications for going to work.  Random times to some random address like a mile from where I live.

My new laptop is here! I'm loving it! The keyboard is much better, it has a numpad which is a big improvement. Also, I can type faster on this, probably because its a better key design. Had no problems so far and its been running fast. It was trying to make me spell things the American wrong way though, which I'm not happy about.
