I don’t care why they do it. It’s just nice that their interests and my interests are aligned on this. I care about the open web and see setting Google up for a monopoly on web browsers to be just about the worst thing that could happen. A

Apple is the only thing holding back Chromium / Blink from becoming the only browser technology that matters. I hope they keep fighting that fight.

I never knew Roget's was organized like that and I have had several different editions over the years. I'm one of those people who always used it as a compendium of synonyms.

No, I mean connect to my home with Tailscale then turn on my work VPN so the office VPN endpoint sees my home IP and not the remote IP (usually my phone's IP because I'm using it as a hotspot). As it is now, I have to call IT and

You aren't leaving a dealership with a car stuffed in your pocket. Target has footage that shows somebody who looks like you appear to put something in their pocket, then walk around the store for 30 minutes and leave without buying an

I suppose also if they have video over months showing a pattern of a person appearing to steal it might be enough to get past any claims that you ditched the item before leaving many times over a period of months.

I've seen a lot of stories about how Target's loss prevention staff will track thefts over multiple visits and don't get the police involved until the loss passes some threshold. I've always wondered how they are able to

One of the people working at the coffee place my wife and I stop at after grocery shopping remembered my name and order and I thought it was pretty nice to be greeted by name. They aren't there anymore and I miss it.

Part of that is right. Hunters, as a group, are closer to nature than most. Thanks to them, all kinds of conservation efforts have been started and maintained. Ever wonder how Nixon was able to establish the EPA and sign into law the clean

There are places in (or around) Las Vegas where you can operate heavy equipment in a playground setting. You can dig holes or smash cars or just push dirt around. I'm thinking about spending an afternoon there next time I go.

> AC is a bandaid Realistically, what else can be done to deal with the impact of climate change right now? Addressing the root cause would be great, but it's not going to move the needle for people suffering today.
