I would worry it wouldn’t be steady enough to make money, so I would lose out compared to renting a room out. I would have to require them to clean up after themselves too, and vet them like renters so I would feel safe with them in my home

Don’t. If you just spend your years learning and trying things, you will naturally find something that doesn’t exist that you need to exist. If some time goes by and you still can’t stop thinking about it, and it still doesn’t exist, that’s

I looked at your comment history and it’s true, your previous posts did get attacked with downvotes. That’s lousy, it isn’t the right way to challenge somebody

It’s a fair question. I did not research the publisher before commenting.

I think what you’re saying is true. I want to add that there are other armies of “volunteers” in other areas of life who didn’t actually volunteer in a fully free way

Every time this post got to +1, it got hammered to -2 within seconds until a few minutes ago. This happened every few minutes for the last hour until the story left the front page, and now it’s +9 and there are no downvotes to be seen. I kn

I have read a ton of articles about the subject and the information I mentioned never came up. I think it’s not widely known. I checked with my wife and a friend just now, who both has followed the story over time, and they didn’t know thos

I’m not blaming anyone, I’m saying I’m surprised and that it’s new information for me. Stop mind reading

The vast majority of people don’t actually read the articles that get posted. I would have appreciated having a few lines highlighted for myself because after reading dozens of articles about this, this information still came as surprising

You’re doubting the source of my quotes and saying I shouldn’t have posted them if there is already online documentation on it?

by hertzrat 6y ago
Why the flood of downvotes? Are the quotes offending people? They are directly from the executive summary of the report

Those machines are wiped and the low level firmware and boot loader is replaced. The specific models available are chosen because newer machines prevent you from doing this. You can’t easily get a computer more fully free than these. They l

The hardest part of this is communicating it to a client. “What do you mean it will probably take 5 weeks, but could take between 2 and 10 weeks? That’s a pretty big span. The other programmer I asked promised it would be done in 5, period.

Well said. It’s like people think they have to get the machine to validate them instead of the other way around. I was coaching somebody’s writing recently and trying to tell them not to modify their style based on Hemingway feedback, but t

Modern male action heroes take a lot of steroids. It’s not a trend anyone should encourage, where the price of entry to be a lead on one of those movies is to risk sacrificing your health in such a dramatic way

Are you volunteering? People can be quick to offer other humans as sacrifices for some greater good

A curious side effect of globalization is mutual dependence, which prevents wars. Full scale hot wars might not happen because of nuclear deterrence, but cold wars attacking financial systems or utility grids could be prevented... Actually,

I made a Wordpress site last year to start blogging that had this happen. The only reason I found out in this case was from visiting it in edge, which showed a warning pop up, so maybe it was a Microsoft flag instead of google in this case.

Fake news influencing people subliminally isn’t anything new. We used to call it propaganda. I read that it got rebranded as PR a while ago and Wikipedia says that advertising is a closely related activity. They all rely on altering your su

> To me, this is just like a mature author that wants to stop the sale of an embarrassing early book because it was poorly written. Dr Seuss passed away in 1991, about 30 years ago, so he isn’t capable of being embarrassed any more.

I watched a YouTube video by somebody who was the target of these attacks and he admitted that he started waking up feeling so numb from stress that he couldn’t move and once soiled his bed because he couldn’t get up. The level of stress a

The most innocent humour I can think of is a goofy self deprecating slip up or remark. I could see those going out of style because they could be seen as portraying somebody or some group the wrong way, of harming people who suffered bad ne

It will be harder to verify whether an address is real or fake. You would have to trust the search engines. Offloading the responsibility to google basically makes google the DNS provider
