Admittedly, I don't think it's on the article's main page but if you were paying attention, you'd know about this one. http://www.cnn.com/2014/12/16/justice/walmart-shooting-john-...

I just tried it out. Thus far, I like it. It's going to take some work to get all of the contented organized and ready but it's a slick little setup. I like it a lot.

I just bought a Pi2(was delivered on Saturday) with a plan to build a retro gaming rig. I hadn't heard of Lakka before seeing it on this thread. I think I'm going to have to try it out. Thank you for sharing your experience with i

If someone doesn't want to be captured, too bad, they shouldn't be throwing photons at you (read: if they want privacy, they shouldn't be in a public location). That would be a perfectly reasonable position if there weren&#

Even small particles will be reduced by misting/spraying water. I have worked in industrial settings and water is surprisingly effective in reducing airborne particulates.

I'd assume not in a bank because any bank can fail at any moment and they are only insured by an instutition as flaky at the United States Treasury department. Governments collapse all the time just ask the Soviet Union. Right? If yo

Thank you for replying. I should have specified. I am running this on a 100mbps LAN. It's not even coming close to saturating my switch.

Precisely. With the exceptions of people who really get into specific cultural phenomena like James Dean, Marilyn Monroe or Elvis, people want to relive the experiences of their own pasts. A couple of years after my grandmother passed away,

If I was slowly losing my mind, I'd even try experimental drugs that came with a 20% chance of sudden death. There's not much worse than having your mind die while your body is still alive.

You are correct. I do have sleep apnea. I have been postponing it for a while but I do need to have a sleep study.

Freakonomics suggested that the crime drop the US experienced in the 1990s was due to Roe v Wade but there is more evidence that it was because of the society-wide drop in lead exposure we experienced at the same time period.

I had an issue a few years ago. I was having frequent acid reflux and 2-3 nights a week, I'd wake up choking on it. This lead to issues with difficulty breathing and shortness of breath. My doctor treated me with an inhaled steroid for

I had high hopes for OwnCloud. I set up a server to manage my home backups and found it to be far too slow for my needs. It was estimating over a year to sync a directory that was about 180 GB in size. That's just not going to cut it.

You are absolutely correct. Every time we have collateral damage in a drone strike, every time someone's child is killed by a missile or bomb dropped by an American aircraft, that child's father is going to go to war with whomever

When I see the claims made, I usually see weasel words attached(I just did that too). With the result being that a statement can be factually accurate while being completely misleading.

You're also describing the scare mongering that was employed against cannabis for the past 70 years. Unfortunately, overstating a risk is eventually perceived to be a lie. People stop trusting you when you're perceived to be a lia

I think you have missed a third party. Government taxing authorities. Despite the fact that they condemn the dangers of tobacco smoking, they also want the tax revenue and e-cigs don't provide that. Big tobacco will still make money fr

Compare the US vs UK before the Dunblane massacre. The UK was a far less violent place even when civilians had guns. In other words there were marginal, if any, benefits to disarming. In fact, there was an increase in certain kinds of viole

Owning a gun does not reduce the odds that you or someone you care about being being killed by a gun. Irrelevant. So, you benefit just as much from gun control as everyone else. Which is "Not at all". PS: One option is to sim

A big problem that comes with all of these novel proposals is that for me, the average American gun owner, they're not better than the current system. What incentive do I have to change from the status quo if the change won't resu

I get my motivation through discipline. Some days, I really don't feel like going to the gym. I go with the idea of taking it easy but once I get started, I give it my all.

But my favorite story about him is how he calls Kelly Lynch's husband every time Roadhouse is on TV to tell him that she's having sex with Patrick Swayze. Apparently this has gone on for years. I'm going to have to Google t

I certainly concede the possibility. People who are healthiest in their mid to late 30s being more likely to live into old age than those who are not is a plausible explanation for what I have observed.

Maybe it's attributed to the rigorousness of the selection process but I have noticed the longevity of so many astronauts. John Glenn, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Michael Collins and Edgar Mitchell all lived beyond the average life ex

That's a common interpretation of the Japanese reaction. I admit to a limited amount of knowledge on this subject but I have never seen anything that contradicts that view.
