It's really annoying given the fact that hardware is more than capable of running some oldies. Hell there is an official WoW build which runs super well, but no other blizz games are ported.

Perhaps a bit too radical? Imagine the headache of changing your legal name everywhere - from banks and driving licenses to frequent flyer cards and your doctors office. Uff, Id rather try the whitewashing first.

Prostitution is closely tied with drug and human trafficking, even if it is “legal and taxable” kind, and most people here know that. It is definitely not socially acceptable because of that and the historical stigma.

You can’t be serious. After the clusterfuck of brexit other countries will be very, very careful even thinking about leaving. And if some country decides to leave the union it wont be over a inconsequential fine and lawsuit.

Ordering from Amazon is like gambling. Will you receive a genuine product as pictured or described, or a broken out-of-the box piece of crap? Only Jeff knows! I'd rather buy from a local electronics retailer. Sure, might be a few bucks

Coffeine is the most used one. It is absolutely performance enhancing and really addictive. Also couldnt help but laugh at you reporting people to HR. That is cute.

That is how it is done when translating literature, right? Pete becomes Пит - just like you are pronouncing Pete.

And annoying the language speakers. Pёtr is painful to read. Peter, Pyotr, Peter, Пётр, pick any, but don't mix and match please!

The trick for me was to start enjoying the healthy food. Asparagus and cauliflower suck, but add some bacon to it, dip it in sriracha, and eat it as a side with a juicy steak and it’s suddenly not that bad! I don’t enjoy sweets or fast food

This is hilarious. Do you really propose to rebuild front end application every hour, tens to hundreds of pages, just to get the new exchange rate in the app? New tools have new ways to solve things, and this is the case where the new way m

Same for me, and the "springgreen"/"mediumspringgreen" are practically the same color on my screen. I'm wondering what was the reason the original spec included those colors. Were CRT monitors of old that much

You are right, if there was a way greedy bastards would abuse it to no end. I hope that Apple, being a premium hardware and software vendor, will not. Their marketing team is working hard to drive the "Apple cares about your privacy&qu

Ads do not have to be intrusive to your privacy - think billboards or TV ads. Granted there is some targeting, but not “eyes in your private correspondence” targeting like Google does.

>If I pay $60k/year, I can’t fail out. Can't fail? Not even on exams? So a mere sum of 180k USD guarantees a degree? I hope not.

Horrendous rates, non-clear fees, everything packed in a nice UI that leads clueless folks right into a trap. It's a scam scheme for financially illiterate people IMO. The fact that it's added into a default browser in a most popu

Thank you for this! I've been playing with the optimizedSD for a while but couldn't get what I wanted out of it. This guide makes sense to me. Gonna give it another shot on the weekend!

I haven't heard stories about bank's AI deciding to close a person's account, take all their life savings, and refuse any explanation, contact or cooperation. Maybe regulation has to do something with it?

Yes. Although the main story line can be done without paying a single cent, the endgame nudges you towards real money shop all the time. After some point credit card becomes the main progression path. I personally enjoyed playing through st

I think that pleading politely is a good start. However, original poster wrote "Please make sure to sing/play instruments from within an insulated location!". Adding "please" doesn't make it polite, really. Nei

Such a comically hostile attitude! The key to peaceful coexistence accommodating others. Don't like my singing during the day? Go take a walk in the parking lot, or along a highway. See, this works both ways. Singing is loud, playing i

I am sorry people don’t like it. However it is my home and I will do whatever I please in it - while staying in the boundaries of common sense and local laws regarding quiet times. Don’t like it? Deal with it.

I really liked the fact that the video started with a basic principle - levers! It showed the viewer how levers work on a example that is easy to grasp to layperson, then went on to gears and their interactions. During the whole video the p

In the ones that have an "outside" for the kids, sure. In my experience, most of the bigger cities in Europe just don't have the space for the kids to hang out. Sure there are parks with playgrounds here and there, but they a
