Long live yahoo...oh well. I've never used them for email, I only had an account for yahoo IM, which they just killed. I have no use for them at all now.

Yea, I didn't think of that. The topic seemed to be pointing at how much the government gives.

I guess I'll chime in here. I normally don't talk about homelessness as I had a distant cousin (grandpa's sister's son) that loved to be homeless. So my opinion will be quite negative/biased. But yes you are right a

My experience with a local WISP was so-so. Perhaps there are better technologies now, but what mine used was a white labeled version of the Motorola Canopy PMP (point to multi-point) I was told 8mbs down and 2mbs up. That worked great for a

There was an earlier excavation of some of the frozen corpses as well and they were taken to laboratories to be studied. After thawing some of the gut bacteria, some were still alive. One of the scientist was smart enough to experiment with

I skimmed the article, I only saw mention of MRSA. Is that the "super bug" they talk about? This is for the most part why I won't step foot in a hospital unless I am literally on my death bed. The last research I read about M

I've never heard that jet engines are less efficient. From what I remember piston engines are 33% thermally efficient, diesels 36% and turbine engines are upwards of 60%+. Of course there are many types of jet engines and ways to get p

Hard to regulate what everyone wants I suppose. There are many schools like this around me and I know more people that went to these schools, both young and old, than I do people that went to an actual college. And yea, most of them are sti

Personally I don't think the government has the right to bar anyone from getting any kind of education. Yes, some of these are a shame, but the student might still learn something. And there's also the issue of time and scheduling

350 meters thick? Global warming or not, how could it possibly get that thick without cracking sooner is surprising to me.

On the same topic, I've actually set aside a down payment for a house, but I probably won't be buying for another year or so. I'm wondering what is a good way to invest this money since leaving it in the bank at less than 1%

I was kinda thinking the same thing but kept my mouth shut. My wife stays at home and I mostly work from home. We aren't rich, but are doing alright.

You certainly can (in most cases). But the examples I spoke of are what I would consider extreme neglect (even though every one pretty much treats their vehicle that way). Is your life that busy that you can't even find time once every

Each has its bad models to stay away from. I find no problem with Ford. My 2000 v6 mustang is still fine at 200k miles. I have a relative that has 1989 Ford Ranger that has 450K miles on it. Same engine, never rebuilt. Though he did have to

Same here with me. But seeing how nothing is being done in perl anymore, I am forcing myself to at least start using python3. I don't see any point in learning ruby, and all the other new languages out there are sorta still niche. Ther
