Can anyone who has used this explain to me if it is worth $180? I own both textmate($50 iirc) and sublime(around $70 iirc) so spending that much seems a bit much. I know it has some nice visual features, but is it $120 worth?

I did, and I'm not sure what you are trying to say exactly, but the point I was making which others have pointed out as well is that Tesla issued changes not for an issue with their car, but to improve it and make it better. Other car

And lets not forget how astonishing that is in light of what many other car manufacturers[0] do when they find issues that effect millions of their cars in a much more dangerous way. The fact that even with that issue, their safety numbers

Well that is the capability of security cameras, loyalty cards, credit cards, scanning ID to get booze and a million other identification means. Unless you go to Starbucks wearing a ski-mask, a Faraday cage, and paying with cash you are pos

Ok, so I have a bunch of domains on Godaddy pointing at a bunch of sites on Digital Ocean and DreamHost. Is it really worthwhile transferring all of them over to Namecheap and setting everything back up? Besides not being Godaddy, i'm

Well shit, anyone else have any ideas? Depending on how strict they are with stalking or watching you I think typing things up on my phone wouldn't be to difficult to do nonchalantly.

My two questions now are, 1. Is there an uncensored version online yet? 2. If there is not, does anyone know if I am allowed to go down to the library of congress and scan/photograph the contents (If so, I live close by and can go do i

I was really bummed when I read that one of these costs about 12k. But then I realized how much money you could make taking this around the country, mapping out cities and licensing the images out. Heck, just taking private gigs for college

The way it looks is that it is connected to your cellphone via bluetooth or something of that sort (since it notifies you when it is out of range from your card). An easy solution would be for the card to auto wipe when disconnected from yo

Thanks, for a while there I thought it was going towards the drop out route, but your second paragraph really made sense. I guess I'm in such a rush to jump in seeing all these young guys working at startups, i'm afraid i'll

The downside is that to even get an internship, I would still have to move somewhere else, not many startups in DC.

Which service will tumble 32 million worth of coins? And if they do them per bust then people will still see a transaction of x amount leaving their wallet.

Possibly use them in sting operations of more underground sites like the silk road. Obviously as we've seen they are still going after dealers, hitmen, CP and this would be a large enough fund of coins to do that from. The only issue I

But you do have to take into account the context of what they are doing. Yes on a technical scale it is similar to a mitm attack, and yes in theory they do have access to your email content, but I don't think that by using an interesti
