Couple of years? The only mention I can find of a review is every 5, per[1]. I assumed the directive had some "go with the flow" upgrade path, but after reading the directive I can't see any wording to that effect. If the USB

Aren't you cherry picking cases where the defendant chose to represent himself? Otherwise wouldn't their legal council handle the timely filing of an appeal?

Why isn't it reasonable to call them the largest tire manufacturer? They're not claiming to be the largest automotive tire manufacturer. But structurally they make real tires, as opposed to some other brands, which might produce

Other flaws aside, the "look" seems much more practical than the F150 et al. It's got large flat surfaces made of stainless steel, you'll be able to weld or bolt modifications (e.g. toolboxes) directly to the body.

Both of those are very useful, but slow , especially valgrind. I don't know OpenBSD, but presumably this is analogous to glibc's relatively faster memory sanity checking. For GCC and clang you'd also want LSAN for this, not

If lab grown meat takes off there's no reason in principle for why cattle, chickens and pigs couldn't be replaced by say the blue whale, dodo and black rhino. We might even find human meat at the supermarket. If all you need is a

The answer to this particular problem isn't public transportation. There's places elsewhere in the developed world where there's no public transportation, and everyone uses a car for longer trips. You can usually still cross

Yes it's "lucrative", and there's certainly fraud involved. But the tone of comment (and certainly the rest of this thread at large) seems to be losing sight of how lucrative it is for everyone involved. If you have a

The net median income in The Netherlands is around 6.5x of that in Bulgaria[1], or €2,834 for .nl, €389 for .bg. If we extrapolate that in reverse it would be like .nl having a median monthly net of around €16k, or a yearly of just under €2
