Yep, a typo. Too late to edit it now.

It doesn't seem any thicker than the phones we had in our pockets in the early-mid 2000s. I personally would mind that compromise.

I am a layman so I could be totally misinterpreting things, but based on existing research it seems like the most effective method would be to filter out or suppress the production of VCAM1 which is apparently a protein that is associated w

I think a good enough reason to forbid it would be to prevent companies from paying donors more (or at all) and diverting blood that could be used for necessary medical treatments.

They already have a competing product: YouTube. It could still be in that arena though.

Not where I come from. Also, my main concern is a foreign company (Google) basically being a private intelligence agency and possessing information on my movements, interests and other things.

Personally I'm not a fan of Apple either (for non-privacy related reasons.) I'm planning to move my device (Pixel 2) to CopperheadOS to eliminate my concerns with Google services.

That's a legitimate complaint. I just paid the money to go premium to remove ads. I've been using it to read books since my Nokia 770 and it has everything I need from an ebook reader so I'm reluctant to change. There's

I was going to mention DAL213, small world (small Internet?). It's a great stream. The crazy part is that simulator is in an apartment, not a house. They had to bring it up with a crane.

A good, basic ebook reader for Windows is FBReader. The Windows version hasn't been updated in years (development seems to have shifted mostly to Android) but it still works just fine.

What I love about Calibre is I can manage all my books there and open the network library from FBReader on my phone where I do all my reading.

For those who don't want to watch the video: The Verge sent YouTube DMCA takedown notices for videos that parodied a (apparently bad) tutorial on building a gaming PC made by The Verge. After appeals by the authors of the parody videos

From my own subjective experience: DO has huge reliability issues, particularly in NYC. Over the course of several months I had repeated brief network drops on random VMs (during EST business hours, lasting up to a couple minutes). Their ob

I've seen a lot of believable (and true) stuff coming from law enforcement lately about fentanyl.

>My point is that Fortnite copies very much from PUBG. I didn't make any arguments about whether that is acceptable or precedented. Please read what I said and don't put words in my mouth.

The building system in Rust is a lot like H1Z1, but it is very different from Day-Z. Rust and H1Z1 differ in that Rust is not a zombie survival game, unlike the original (now discontinued) version of H1Z1. Coincidentally Fortnite was origin

I think you have the words 'hacker' and 'cybercriminal' confused.

I'm not a LEO but it seems pretty obvious. Better to take him somewhere he's unprepared rather than somewhere he could potentially have laid traps or have an early warning system like cameras.

It costs $360 to incorporate at minimum, at least here in Ontario, so that would still be substantially more expensive than it is currently. The CIRA (Canadian Internet Registration Authority) at least, probably others, used to give away d

It's odd that they make concessions like that in a lease agreement but that's great. Ontario generally favours tenants in legal matters but the locks thing bothers me a bit. I currently have an issue with my landlord and I know th

Some people do not become anxious from cannabis, that is true. The problem is recommending a drug with one of the most common side effects being anxiety to a person who has severe enough anxiety to have sought treatment for it and been pres

Happy to hear that. Where I live (Ontario, Canada) it's not explicitly illegal but landlords are allowed to make the tenant not changing the locks a condition of their lease and most do because it is enforceable.

by DKnoll 8y ago
That probably violates the terms of your lease unfortunately.

Yes very true. In fact the NRC should probably set up an HTTPS redirect and HSTS.

Treating anxiety with cannabis is like throwing gas on a fire.
