That's exactly what Firefox does. I am typing this on Firefox and in the address bar "ycombinator.com" is in black and the rest of the address is in grey.

How could it possibly be stupidity. Let me list the reasons why. This is multiple orders to multiple restaurants over a span of years. You are not going to have that many people all with a similar address and all making exactly the same mis

Some very interesting points. I would like to say that the hardware is a bit of a mess as well. There are weird redundant bits of legacy hardware that aren't required any more, but nobody's bothered to remove them from the system

Ah, now. See. You're mistake is thinking you can reason better than a dog. The reason a dog brings the toy to the human is because they know that the human is better at throwing and the dog is better at fetching. Teamwork, y'see.

From a cursory examination of the site I deduce this is either a piece of satire or a silly joke (maybe both). So relax, this is not a serious effort to censor :-) (Also I commend your child rearing technique vis-a-vis swearing. Seems a ver

My understanding of quantum physics is miniscule; so a question: would it be potentially true to say that the concept of "emptiness" as we define it is essentially meaningless at the quantum level?

The difference is that Roomba's are used by millions of people around the world whilst Boston Dynamics robots, whilst impressive, are currently used by... nobody? Anyway, it's an apples to oranges comparison. Boston Dynamics are b

My answer to that would be that YouTube did not de-platform David Icke because of his wacky views, remember he has had an account for ages with no problem. They de-platformed him because he was spreading dangerous misinformation that could

Does anyone else find the headline really weird? Having "17%" next to "hundreds more" makes the "hundreds more" look like the important figure, whereas in actuality the "17%" is really the important f

I can see how your statement could be misinterpreted, it was slightly ambiguous. I did, upon careful reading, realise you probably meant that it was in your past and you were happy not to go back, but saying "in the past" rather t

Exactly. The fingerprint is currently an excellent system for the average person. Easy enough that most people are happy to use it and, as the article says, secure enough for the average person.

This is not a criticism, nobody knows until they are taught, just trying to help you improve your use of English (which is otherwise excellent). The phrase "much more easier" is incorrect. The word "easier" loosely means

That's a strawman. Most moral frameworks forbid killing, so that would be built into it. Therefore murdering a bunch of people to increase happiness would not even be on the table.
