With DN'ing most just get rid of the majority of their stuff before they go. That one really isn't that difficult.

There's a good time team on Salisbury Cathedral that's worth a watch, sadly the quality of the uploaded version is only 360p https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=so8WBdhsUnw

You either tether yourself to a companies whim or you tether yourself to piles of physical stuff you have to manage for the rest of your life. Personally I'll take digital every time the choice comes up.

I broadly agree, with vaccines I don't really think there's a good reason to keep schools closed. Before I think it made sense to err on the side of caution.

The main issue with schools is that the kids catch it, don't suffer with it much but pass it to their parents and potentially grand parents. Schools are just a great nexuses for rapidly spreading covid through communities.

No, viewing the posts of the person with 50k+ followers is worth something, the dribs and drabs are just the cost of business.

Will anyone pay me for this comment? I'm guessing not. Will anyone pay for yours? Also probably not. Because in both cases they take minutes or less to write. 99.999% of most content on most social media is equivalent to this, what is

That's not even remotely true. If you're sufficiently big enough on social media you can get your own advertising deals directly with advertisers and cut out the platform itself. If you're small enough that you can't do

Doesn't that only really work if you like the current society and it's direction? If you don't, why would you support it with effort you don't need to expend?

The lesson of the internet is that lower friction always wins. If people had charged for everything on the internet from its inception, it would have died. I'd rather have good than perfect, I think the internet is pretty good at the m

I think it's a case of most people have a finite amount of really productive time in them per day and once it's exhausted trying to squeeze more out is counter productive. What do you fill the rest of the time with? If you accept

Personally I very rarely re-read books so the concept of owning them just doesn't really matter to me. If my ebook collection suddenly disappeared I wouldn't particularly care, I already got the value out of them I was going to ge

Google won't rank them low because they actually do serve an important purpose. They're there for people who don't really know what they want specifically, they're looking for an overview. A top 10 gives a digestible ove

I think the other reason, besides micotransactions being more profitable, is it's just a better business model for most companies. Having a reasonably predictable regular income is preferable to a one off hit or miss of a single player

I don't know if mobile cores factor into the same process, but if you have a lot of demand for 2 core system for cheap laptops that can't supply the power or cooling for a 4 core then having more 4 cores, even if they're chea

UK UKpol is not far off nowadays either, that one didn't used to be so terrible. Never really read AskUK but I don't doubt it's similar. The only way forward is to keep it casual.

I think there's competing issues here, there's an aspect of "I want to prove myself" by creating something really good and unique that I can be proud of. There's also the "do good" aspect of potentially cr

Slow release variants are the ones I go for jet lag. 2.5mg slow release melatonin usually does the job. If you wake up it kicks in again enough for you to fall asleep relatively quickly.

I don't think so. 99.9% of people don't need or want to do anything beyond what iPhone/Android currently offers, I would put money on the fact that a majority of iphone buyers are completely happy with things as they are.
