I saw a documentary once called "Brain Sex" and as I remember it, in the days before HIV/AIDS, it wasn't unheard of for some gay men to have 1,000 sexual partners in a lifetime. I'm sure that this has changed dramat

>>why don't we just get rid of the idea that you 'own' your partner's body? For the most part, people don't believe that they do. People think that they're owed honesty. There's an enormous differenc

The way you've phrased this, it sounds like you are casting "other hard to cure STDs" as a protective measure against the "threat of 1960s style of unprotected sex wave." I read it as him casting the threat of t

Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one who has this perspective. I'm a couple of TV shows away from going to an "online streaming only" mode of TV watching. I'm becoming increasingly annoyed by the "only&quot

With no wars, no shortage of food One of the great ironies is how the abundance of food in the west is leading to obesity, heart disease and high blood pressure. Instead of people being unhealthy due to chronic, persistent malnutrition, p

I distinctly remember seeing some conservation types on a tv series, I believe it was Mr. Wizard's World, doing a controlled burn to reduce the intensity of later wildfires.

I agree. Counterfeit goods cost rights holders money but the way these losses are calculated seems to be dishonest to me. I think it's clear that some of the people who bought the counterfeit item would have bought the genuine article

I'm most impressed by the Ryzen 7. Only the i9 is faster and it's less than half the price of the i9 7900. It outperforms the i7 5960 and it's similarly less than half the price. AMD can compete well in the enthusiast-on-a-bu

Is your ease of repair what most people think? Probably not but it is what I think and well, I tend to advocate for my position more than the position of others. Do you think 99% of people that own a Ford Escape are going to go under the

I was introduced to the Amiga 2000 back in high school. That's where I have always started my search but the 500 might not be a bad re-introduction.

I have a 1986 Camaro too. It has a small block V8 and it's a dream to work on any bolt-on component, unlike most newer vehicles.

Last year, I replaced the alternator on my Ford Escape and you have to either disconnect the U-joint going to the front passenger side tire or remove the air intake plenum and fish the alternator up the back of the engine by the firewall. I

Anger, pain or desperation will make otherwise normal people do some very abnormal things. Even in the most "civilized" and wealthy of western democracies, 1 week of no food, water and electricity would lead to absolute bedlam. Th

I know someone who drives for Uber due to the lead generation but also does jitney service on her own for people that she already knows. That way, no one else gets a cut of the revenue for leads that she had produced herself. It's my u

Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. There are some old games that I revisit and still enjoy like I used to. Carrier Command is one such game. I still break it out to play every few years. Sim City 2000 is another game that I still enjoy playing

It's a balancing act, to be sure. I'm sure all of the issues you raised would be serious impediments to hiring 20-somethings but many of us have only improved our programming prowess with age. I'm in my 40s, I don't care

If Bruce Willis Tweets, you should totally make a chubby black cop named "Al" for his opponent. If he rolls a Yahtzee, you could make it pop up a message that says "Yippee Ki Yay, Roy!" Because of my near-encyclopedia kn
