We had that problem with computers when having the metal shielding off the cases. Every time someone in the vicinity got a phonecall on their Motorola 2880 (random model number, can't remember but one of the really old ones) the comput

That would be "Demonstration Effect" or "IT Support Effect". Happens every other support call. I bet this is why half the older companies still have a tech person on staff. :-)

That is being done too. Teenagers showing vulnerabilities in school systems have been prosecuted in Sweden... Needless to say, they didn't get much help with looking for holes after that so who knows how many security holes they still

It's not random but it is also much larger variables than just what you eat. The body is very complicated. Women has the added fun of a monthly period and when that one stops, they have the even worse menopause. Not to mention a lot of

This might be more true for a male than a female. Buildup of water in the body changes a lot and has nothing to do with what you eat. So measure your weight is very dangerous for your motivation if you eat almost nothing and still gain weig

I would guess the hackernews crowd has a higher percent of bluefilter installs since that is a very common topic. Probably also more agressive settings for the blue filter.

I had similar problems with a local train app in Germany on Googles store. The organisation when asked said to install another app instead, that was not linked anywhere on their homepage.

Europe runs PAL, here it was popular to hunt TV's that could run NTSC because of the higher framerate. This leads to less flicker. All TV's that can run NTSC can also run PAL so you can switch between the 50/60 Hz as you need

If you look on the thing you sign when getting a steam account, you don't actually own any of the games. Just like the MMO's, you cant play them when steam or producer decides to shut them down.

But with the terminal you still have to learn commands, it's not as discoverable as the windows 95 environment. There you could do things as a noob by just looking around and after a while you could do things without even thinking. Eve

More like: Meta: "Privacy is long dead, we always owned your data." EU: "Hold up a moment, we need to check this before we can agree to this." Meta: "Ok". Thinking: Eh, whatever. This will happen later anyway.

Your description of the way of fixing a flat on a fixed gear sound much more work than the deraileur way. You disengage the handbrake if you have rim-brakes, open the quick-release for the wheel, bend the deraileur outwards a bit and just l
