I never got around to learning to use MacsBug. I just stopped running applications that caused too many crashes. I miss those days dearly. I LOVED being a Mac user during the 1990s.

I suspect that the issue you're experiencing is due to your delivery. You're coming across as condescending and abrasive. Sometimes I make comments that are unpopular and sometimes I'm down voted for them but not usually. Pre

The FBI has been doing it for over 40 years. From the Black Panther Party to Elohim City, they have a long history of taking people who were angry but otherwise law abiding and trying to goad them into criminal violence.

Since I'm not a resident of that state, I don't know their laws but in my state, we regularly give competitive advantage to one company over another. Municipalities restrict which companies can offer cable TV service within their

According to her version of the events, she didn't do anything close to that for 11 years. By her own account, she ghosted, blocked and ignored in the hopes that he would "take the hint" except for when she was bored or lonel

There is a huge gender bias in play. In the US(and probably most other western countries), domestic violence is viewed as only something that men do to women. It's treated as a joke when a woman is violent against a man and it's c

Exactly. What she did would be interpreted by someone with limited social skills as sending mixed signals. She went out for a meal with him when he showed up unannounced and gave her a gift. She'd block or ignore him sometimes and enga

So... Why didn't she just give him a firm, but polite "I'm not interested"? I'm not saying that stalking and/or harassment are acceptable. I'm just saying that she probably could have avoided 14 years of m

In the earlier days of DNA analysis, they routinely overstated the certainty of matches. They were testing too few loci for the kind of results they were claiming. Matches that were called something like one in 8 billion were sometimes more

I don't feel quite so bad. I got my B+ and about two months later, the 2 was released. I got a 2 and about two months later, the 3 was released. I should hurry up and buy the 3.

For a while, there were people who used to drop them all in the mail. Force the publishers and advertisers to pay the postage for them with the idea of making it less profitable to include them with the magazines in the first place.

One of the items, specifically alleging that the 16th amendment wasn't properly ratified has some merit but there's an even better counter-argument. The government will seize your property and incarcerate you if you don't pay

I have been using TaxAct for about 10 years. Thus far, I'm very happy with it. There is one minor gripe that I have, they moved the location of the data files so the process of making a backup copy is a little different but that's

Back from 2009-2010, I did work as a web developer on an ecommerce site. A month or so in, I discovered that they kept all of the user password unencrypted in a database. I went to my boss and explained that we can't do that. It's

I was a long time Mac aficionado. I loved Apple and their products. It was a heart breaking experience when I felt like it was time to move on. I paid about $2,300 for a Performa 550 back in 1993. That machine served me well. I added memory
