Surprised that this hasn't been re-released for windows or at least linux.

Not sure why I got downvoted. So I'll assume its someone who can't reply. For reasons. For the record, I have an ongoing argument with booking companies seemingly every time I book something. They always misspell my name. Even

Just get rid of these filters. What exactly are you trying to prevent? It can't possibly help in the real world and these silly examples will just recur. If there's billing associated with it, its easy enough to cross reference th

Never heard of "office hours" used this way. Must be a US thing. Its a good idea. Schedule a session with an expert or someone who is working on the thing you're interested in / supporting. I'd definitely link it to

This is why I ask. A big target means lots of attention. A small target might have even worse security but no one is paying attention to the same extent.

So that means the overall reputation is withering as well. Even more than before probably. Is Lastpass a widely trusted thing? other than the obvious refrain: "of course it is - its a password manager"? Is its security known for b

I think this is mostly true and there are plenty of qualifiers. Stress is an excellent example. But in general, you can still apply various forms of leverage and get more results. eg your ability to calculate in your head is usually limited

Obviously? I don't think this is true. People pay money for horoscopes and similar so there are people out there who take it seriously. I don't. I didn't say anyone was an idiot. That's from you. Likely because you&#x2

TV Studio execs at Fox cancelled Firefly. Prediction is hard. But studios in general are also very stubborn .

Accusations of being smug are usually made by people who chose a team and you've encroached or offended that team somehow. There's often an aspect of admonishment in using that word as well. As for my part it wasn't based on

This is very much the likely scenario. The money is in further DLC. The existing GTAO engine is "done" from their perspective. I'd guess also that the next version of the base engine is in RDR2 or later and doesn't have

We used to start up Quake while we waited then we'd forget about GTAO. Later we'd discover GTA had kicked us out for being idle too long. Then we'd just close it. That should be embarrassing for Rockstar but I don't thin

I felt quite good actually both then and now. But you seem angrier than you should be. Certainly angrier than someone who would have wrote "It doesn't matter which sign you check" and actually meant it.

Better to use canary email addresses that actually go somewhere you can detect incoming emails. Then it would be useful.

Going by the canary email addresses I put into my devices from time to time... nowhere good. Those email addresses receive spam despite never sending or being signed up to anything. Apps are actively uploading and selling email addresses. I

You probably hit the wrong "bubble". This happens. Then there's the various groupthink fashions that come and go like weather patterns on various comment sites. I doubt HN is much different. Probably better on HN but I'v

Yeah, horoscopes are fun. I used to mess with my school by shuffling the horoscopes in the weekly newsletter. No one noticed or complained.

Yeah, the whole peek/poke thing turned BASIC into a slow assembly language scripting language rather than actual BASIC language support. Still, it likely made the transition to assembly programming a little more straightforward for man

BBC micros were kind of special from all reports - I never used one. Apparently they had the ability to have an auxiliary processor added, RAM expansion etc etc. By all accounts they were well made and powerful. BBC Basic had all the goodie

Its good as a one-off. Then you feel all warm and fuzzy as you go "oh yeas this makes sense". I did an experiment using these tests. I ran them every week. Did a different test from a different website. Very little consistency at

Love how all these people rushed to tell you who Pinkerton are and what they do.

I'd prefer the C128 BASIC. It had graphics and sound commands. That would be good to hook up SDL2 and make something interesting. You could do the same for C64 basic but that was all peeks/pokes or something like SIMON's BASI
