It's common knowledge that Microsoft considers everyone to be spammers until proven innocent. Getting to a point where your mails end up in the recipients' inboxes is a long path -- Microsoft doesn't care if you set everythin

It's still doable. I self host and have managed to switch IP's providers and so forth without getting into trouble. It is, however, critical that you make sure you don't get an IP that was recently used by a spammer, and it&#

Foraging scavengers, who figured out that the stone used to crack skulls of already-dead animals could also crack the one of animals that were still alive.

It's not for vegans, that's for sure. There's a lot of plant and mushroom-based food to be had during the end of the summer, though, and one would have to forage for plants first thing when spring came in order to get a nutri

Many Amigans stuck with their aging hardware several years into the early 00's, and I don't think the last of the real die-hards gave upon Amiga Inc. until fairly recently. It took dedication and many now use it for creating the u

Last thing I heard, Saturn's rings are surprisingly young (about 100 million years old), and are indeed slowly disappearing.

Well, it was several billion years ago, so surely any debris would have had more than enough time to clear out or fall down onto Earth and the Moon?

Depends. Would it be Thursday between 09:00 and 16:00? If so they'd have someone here in 25 minutes. If not, it'd take something like an hour until someone turned up and asked if I wanted to make a report.

The very idea of a feature-complete style of government is both intriguing and outright frightening.

Ditto with our 2003 Citroën. This always online paradigm will cause more and more problems down the road, as the first IoT generations lose Internet access.

Also, good old enamel pots work very well, and they're awesome to cook with.

Greenland isn't allowed to do that; their foreign relations are mostly controlled by Denmark.

Definitely. I was agreeing with the parent post, while adding a semi-sarcastic reply about everyone having to agree before things start moving. Community-building might be a possible solution, but how do you pull people away from their scre

Let's imagine a hypothetical crisis, say a building on fire. You can save your own child/spouse/relative or you can save a complete stranger. You will succeed in saving any of them, but not both. Most people will chose child&

Yeah, I suspect it's going to be more people packed into smaller areas, and massive investments in public transport infrastructure. There's going to be a lot of people who don't buy it.

Not to mention the countless rebellions that ended with the rebelling peoples' heads on spears. Farmer rebellions usually fail.

Yeah, especially when there's occasional extremists that refuse to acknowledge that putting one's own first isn't the natural state of things. I guess the way forward is to build a sustainable future for everyone and their fa

Overall car ownership will most likely take a large dip until second-hand EV's are cheap enough and the power grid modernized. It'll require decades of large-scale social and infrastructural programs in order to catch up.

9/11 has had -- and continiue to have -- far-reaching consequences that have an impact many people's lives. It pales in comparison to the impact that constant internet access and mobile computing have had, though.

It's about hours per tank/recharge. They run pretty much 24/7 during spring and authumn. Filling the tank takes a few minutes while recharging a battery takes hours. I'm sure we'll get there at some point, but many

Yeah, it would require a surplus of renewable energy to be worth it.

Yes and no. If done right, you can get bio-gas from old landfills and food waste, and that's gas that'll end up in the atmosphere anyway -- we might as well use it. Then there's the issue of growing crops for use as bio-fuel.

Many EU-countries are planning a ban on sales of petrol and diesel cars starting 2030. Combustion engines running on bio fuels will probably stick around until electric veichles cover all the fringe cases. Diesel engines won't go anywh

Helsinki - Stockholm has too many travellers for a 19-seater. :) Planes like this will most likely be used for routes from very small local airports to larger regional ones. I'd guess it's more likely to cover things like Rønne -

I keep todo-lists in a notebook, because I never managed to keep track of things otherwise. Once they're written down in a notebook, however, I just don't seem to forget them.

In Finland (and probably elsewhere as well), people have the right to make physical copies of copyrighted works, for private use, and private use extends as far as giving copies to family and close friends. That means we copied a _lot_ of t

You forgot alcohol. There's a constant demand and therefore it's quite acceptable as means of payment.
