I get loads of results, both related to VKontakte and other things (e.g. a "Roland VK-8 and VK-77 Combo Organ"), "Vaartkapoen", etc. I live in Sweden, maybe the VK-limiting filter is set on US search results?

I don't know if Mozilla plans to bring it back but I know the solution is just around the corner: host it yourself. If you only want to do things like this you could use any SBC - Raspberry Pi etc - running some distribution of some op

You feed it into a fast breeder reactor which both produces more fuel for conventional reactors as well as reduces the amount of waste. The resulting waste is lower in volume and needs less lengthy storage.

Maybe the word 'cost' is not the right term, better would be to talk about 'price'. The price is as high as the market will bear, clearly people are used to paying more for data in the USA and as such there is less incen

This suggestion has come up several times recently but it seems to be explicitly disallowed by Apple to charge higher rates while alluding to an Apple tax.

By now it should be clear that Apple intends to milk its ecosystem for what is is worth. It is also clear that there are plenty of people who seem to be fine with it - viz. remarks like "I'd pay $2000 for an iPhone to feel safe&qu

I thought the typo made by guenthert about a day ago in a totally unrelated post gave rise to a good name for this plane: ...but also Boing airplanes Experience the all-new Boing 737MAX, the most bouncy plane in our catalogue

If you cite make sure to use a complete citation. He wrote "Not really an Indian, but from a similar kind of community in its neighboring country ." which gives more credibility to his statement than the partial citation you used

It is a bad start of a bad trend, erecting statues in of non-notable living people in public spaces by a mob. Even if you ideologically align with this mob you should realise that this trend better stop here and be reversed or the next

I'd buy a Skoda, VW and a Toyota and maintain them for at least 10 years. The Skoda is the Xiaomi Redmi 5, the VW is the Motorola Defy and the Toyota is the Samsung SIII. They vary in age between 2 (Xiaomi), 8 (Samsung) and almost 10

As to whether installing an AOSP-derived Android distribution is easy to install or not mostly depends on whether the device is locked in some way or other. If it is you'll need to unlock it which - again depending on the device - can

It is sad to see how party politics get in the way of solving problems in the USA. Your whole reply is worded from the standpoint of someone who is clearly against the GOP and - given the practical reality of the de-facto two-party system i

From what I gather - correct me if I'm wrong - voter ID is not a thing which is limited to 'neighbourhoods with low ID ownership' but a state-mandated policy where 36 of 50 states require some form of voter ID [1]. There seem

Voter suppression would be when people are actually kept from going to polling stations to cast their votes. Limiting mail-in voting is not voting suppression, it is limiting access to a specific - and rather contentious - way to cast your

"blockchain systems" - which I notice you're invested in by virtue of leading a startup which in some way utilises blockchain technology - may be able to help in reducing the opportunities to cheat on the technology side. Thi

Given the record early and massive snowfall this year [1] the alarm can be reset - 5,5 gigaton fell on the 12th of august, 2,5 gigaton on the 11th and 4 gigaton on the 10th. Greenland is accumulating ice mass about a month earlier than norm
