For clarity, this sets in as the old body may still be slowly or practically unable to recover from the first event, the fall (e.g. a broken bone).

I've read about manufacturers limiting RAM to e.g. 8GB to be able to stay within some power-consumption deemed acceptable for a notebook device. More RAM draw power. Given that RAM size can have those ramifications energy-wise, it soun

You are absolutely right. I started out with TextSecure myself. I switched over to what became Silence eventually. I'm not a Signal user though after giving them several tries, and that decision seems more final by each passing days. I

You're making a great point here, that I've never heard before in the debate. Not only in the specific issue of the article, but public life in general. I think the argument is that drunks did consent, in the same spirit as a drun
