Plus all of the differences between native speakers. Canuck here. Color and colour are pronounced differently(mildly), and ant and aunt wildly different. Suite and suit are different pronunciations too. Yet to some US speakers, those word

Interesting, I can see how it would sound the same, with a different accent.

My thought is, China is seen as needing to be curtailed. Syria curtailed Russia, as you said, they lost the capacity to support it. Iran was a show of force, and something that could be done. And, Iran was very much supporting Russia -- l

Well it makes sense, no one uses ipv6 anyhow. Most I know are waiting for ipv8.

No, the cartoon networks. There was a mass explosion of cable channels, and ad rates plunged. Some networks had a hard time filling all ad space.

While I have no issue with pulling up to the pump, I think many would prefer to pull up driver on the pump side. And there is zero indication it will save even one life a decade. Think of all the drivers pulling over and (gasp!) getting out

I recall looking at a car to buy, and the salesman toted the gas cap on the right as the "safe side". The logic was, if you run out of gas, you can refill on the side away from traffic. Dumbest design reasoning. Plan the side, fo

Thank you for verifying how all women behave and act, as if they are all identical. Then, using that stereotypical behaviour to chastise others. You also presume that "brown nosing" is the same category as "being nice".

When I bought, it was maybe 2 ft deep. 60s Jeeps weren't quite a wide as today, either. I dug it out properly after buying. It was a perfectly good ditch though, but I wanted to drain more water at the back of the property, so I lowe

I wonder if those networks had a hard time filling ad orders, so Sears ended up with a massive discount? If those ads were pennies compared to other spots, it could be deemed worth it. Parents often are nearby when kids are watching TV.

I bought a riding lawnmower used, 17 years ago. The mower was very well maintained, engine was good, and already 25 to 30 years old when I bought it. I wanted the manual. Sears parts still existed, and they shipped me a complete copy of th

My house, built in the 60s, is actually 4 Sears cabin kits. The guy bought them, and assembled them end to end, making a long house. Same guy dug the original ditch by driving back and forth with his jeep for an hour during spring rain. T

Everyone had loads of books at home 50 years ago. Now far, far fewer homes have books. They don't all have a home anymore. Sad, but that's where we're at. It's not book burning in the traditional meaning, wven if that&

As I said, making an account requires a license plate. Even for "Create a Fasttrak account". It's on the second page, demanding a license plate.

Unfortunately, some of us have to deal with things like billing, transaction timing to validate what a client's logs might have on their systems, and so on. My take on this is that second timing is close enough for this. And that all

The article doesn't cover the inane stupid that is: * NTP pool server usage requires using DNS * people have DNSSEC setup, which requires accurate time or it fails So if your clock is off, you cannot lookup NTP pool servers via DNS, an

So you're saying time travelers came back in time, and caused the end of lisp architecture, solely to prevent an AI singularity years before we could possibly cope with it.

One annoying thing is I've tried to pay, but can't. I spend about four to five months per year in the Bay Area, but have Canadian license plates. The website doesn't even let you enter a Canadian plate, or a foreign plate. So

Ah great. Easier for real estate agents to show slow panning around a room, with lame music. I guess there are other uses?? But this is just more abstracted reality. It will be innacurate just as summaried text is, and future peoples wil

Just throwing an idea out there, mercury or alcohol thermometers were often used. These would be far less pure in to 1800s. That would effect the accuracy of readings. They were also hand made back then too. If the theory of body temp bein

Beyond true. I wonder what Amazon's goals are, as an example. Currently, at least on the .ca website, there is no way to even get to chat to fix problems. All their spider text of help options, now always lead back to the return page

Oh but they did achieve a financial good. They saved having to pay another company to place that ad. Therefore, they made more money, eg more profit.

It would help in many respects. I'll 100% agree that a solution doesn't need to be absolute, that edge cases don't mean a failure.

Obviously things will continue to improve, so this is a point in time criticism. One of the biggest issues with current state of tech I see is, where these cars usually are. They're in cities, and most often in very dense ones, and on
