That is the hint; that is exactly what the backlink means.

It's in a postscript attached to a sentenced about how giving away software is what helps him sleep at night. I'm not sure how you can reach any other logical conclusion without throwing out data from the article in favor of compl

Even within Sparta, proper Spartans didn't make up the majority of the population, so you'd still have to distinguish between Spartan infants and helot infants.

Using semicolons to join sentences together isn't a super common style of writing for online comment sections. If you are unable to read a paragraph composed of shorter, more discrete sentences, that's on you.

I don't think GP was saying that Nintendo had full continuation, just that they assumed people would see Wii U and 3DS the same way they saw the SNES. But by the time those were released people had just been through multiple models of

Nothing hypocritical there at all, in both cases you are against a government that is placing itself in the way of normal people and unfiltered access to information/tools.

>* Nobody spends somebody else’s money as carefully as he spends his own. Nobody uses somebody else’s resources as carefully as he uses his own… That is definitely not true for me. I actually feel responsibility if it's not my money

Grocery baggers, at least, are actually the stores main gofer people. Bagging is done to either make lines move faster during busy periods or as a default position when there's nothing to do, but they also handle go-backs, grabbing pro

If they experienced better bass on the G1/G2 Airbuds, it's not a seal issue.

I've always read it as a purposeful lack of describing effect. A word used when you don't want to address the "how" question, just that the spread happened.

>Plus it is often completely legal to cross when there is not crossing close. Though not always, got burned by this as a teenager when I got hit crossing the highway in front of my trailer park. The intersection I crossed from was a priv

I live in west San Francisco, popping over to the East Bay is an hour and a half round trip for me, so that's not quite a deal-breaking amount of time. That's a magnitude of difference from having to do at least a four hour drive

That is a meme and not representative of the actual experience of living here.

That's not a sustainable model for a population though. That works for the average SV type, but the legion of service workers that support that population aren't making enough money for the (and leave) portion. If you're only

40 miles away from a major city is hardly the "middle of nowhere." That's still within spontaneous day-trip range. My hometown is 88 miles to the nearest real city, and that city is Fresno. Double that distance at least to ge

People buying from dealers aren't considering the illegality in the choice at all, though. They're a choice between continuing to buy from someone they know vs entering a storefront that is going to make them provide a bunch of PI

Nothing about that comment seems THAT unusual. Honestly, I'm spending more time sitting here trying to understand where you're coming from than I am with them. What elements of their comment struck you as trolling?

They had those style of vehicles by my childhood in the 90's, and I don't think having a few pre-built vehicle pieces really hampered creativity. I would just spend hours working out how to work those car parts into a giant mad-ma

What else would you call jumping into a conversation just to make multiple comments about how you don't like someone's word choice?

To be fair, Reader and Google Play Music did both outlast G+, so it's not like the garbage fairs any better.

As a San Franciscan, Twitter is the only place I see anyone worried about a looting epidemic. And my peer group is literally "Union Square retail worker," so we're kind of the people everyone keeps telling me are the most fre

But the majority of people aren't hitting anything, so now you're lumping in disinterest in ratings with active dislike.

Googled it. I found some vague references to it having happened, or having been stopped in the act, but not like a news report. The more prevalent an idea is without having any actual evidence, the less I trust it.

Any reason for the obfuscation?

You don't need to freak out every time someone invents a new word construction. I understood the comment perfectly the first time, which brings us to 2/3 other commenters having grocked it immediately. Wait, grocked is a made up w

Law enforcement isn't reading random cycling blogs looking for admissions of crime. It's hard enough to get their attention with a call of "Hey, there's this crime happening right in front of me and it's causing a p
