There's a version of the Martin Denny Romantica album cover where he's snuggling a woman with her bare breast exposed. Not gross but, very odd. The 60's were a strange time, man.

His parents consented for him. If he wants to sue anyone, he can try going after them. I think he'll get about the same outcome as this lawsuit, though.

I remember when technology solved real problems for real people. It wasn't that long ago. Now, we have this nonsense.

I've been writing Javascript since it was in beta. I love Javascript as a language but, I almost completely agree with what you're saying for all the reasons you laid out.

I read something once from an advertising executive and he said the biggest problem in that industry is that nobody knows the history of it. It's all about the latest, shiny, cool thing and nobody realizes they're repeating the m

I'd love to see a dramatization of the making of the Macintosh. I read Revolution In The Valley not too long ago and it's fascinating to read about the personalities of the people who created that machine. I think it would be

In addition to changing your T-Mobile PIN, I recommend freezing your credit with all three credit reporting agencies. It's easy and free.

Brain zaps. Feeling like I was going to puke all day every day for a month. I somehow avoided one of the more common side-effects and withdrawal symptoms: panic and/or anxiety. The two reasons I was taking the SSRI's to begin w

Having taken SSRI's before, and experienced their withdrawal symptoms, I'd almost rather have COVID.

As is so often the case for reasons I have yet to fathom, people appear to be reading between the lines of my original comment. I never said _I_ dislike the address bar at the bottom. I'm not a beta tester, I haven't used it, so

This was still a problem at a company I worked at four years ago. Our customers were large corporations that had standardized on Internet Explorer over a decade prior and were unwilling to change anything because they had built so much on

I personally think they should take the hint and not even have this be configurable. If beta testers hate having the address bar at the top so badly that Apple felt the need to introduce a toggle, then they should just permanently move the

A lot of people fear losing their money more than they fear death. I think corporate capital punishment, in theory, could work. The other side of that coin, however, is the number of people put out of work if that were to happen. Either w

Maybe I'm alone in this assessment but, this reads like it was written by the economics teacher on Ferris Bueller's Day Off . I can't decide if it is on-target brilliant or completely off the mark.

Senator Marsha "I've Never Met A Cable Or Telecom Lobby Dollar I Refused To Take" Blackburn makes me wonder if some of this push isn't by the telco's to try to get back in the game. Before the iPhone and Apple App S

Yes, thank you. That is what I meant. My use of the phrase "caused by CBD" was unintentionally confusing.

I don't think it is a matter of the provider not knowing that antibiotics aren't for viral infections. They have patient after patient after patient coming in demanding to get an antibiotic. At some point, many of those provid

Conversely: my wife is a Nurse Practitioner and, when she was practicing family medicine, the number of times she had to refuse people antibiotics for what was obviously not bacterial (muscle strain, viral infection, etc...) was insane. Sh

While scary, is this really newsworthy? We're surrounded by bacteria that can be dangerous, but usually isn't. Five years ago, my dad was admitted to the hospital because he contracted cryptococcus neoformans[1]. The thing is, t

We need a Constitutionally guaranteed right to privacy in this country. I know that's way easier said than done but I think it's time we at least move towards such a thing through debate and consideration for what it means.

I'm not well versed in reading studies like this. Could someone who is tell if there is any mention of a correlation to a reduction in inflammation caused by CBD?

They are also scanning iCloud documents to match photos against known child abuse photos and reporting any that they find to law enforcement as well as locking you out of your iCloud account.

My kids' school recommends Bark but, after looking into it, I felt I couldn't trust it. Unlike Apple, Bark appears to (at the time I reviewed them) transmit nearly everything the kid does on the phone to the Bark servers for revi

Zuckerberg is running out of rope. He knows he can no longer apologize and promise to be good and have everybody trust him on his word so he can go back to playing his tricks. So now he's resorting to the CEO equivalent of, "Loo
