While there are less public broadcasts on shortwave then there once were, there is still plenty of utility stations, radio amateurs, and various other uses. By no means "bloody useless"

Throughout the years, it has always been an inspiration to read up on Stephen K Roberts adventures! If you haven't yet, I strongly recommend exploring the rest of his website: https://microship.com/

Yes, I have all that. It's pretty much a legal requirement for any motorvehicle in any state I know off. I am very aware of all the leading causes of death for motorcyclists. Your conclusion doesn't make sense though, there is a r

Yes I do. And what's more, both statistics and my insurance company agree. The simple fact that my own life is at stake, makes me much more aware of my surroundings. This is a well researched neurological fact. Also, a 450lbs projectil

Yes, I choose to have my body be the crumble zone rather then using some innocent child for that purpose from the comfort of a 2 ton piece of armor with blind spots the size of Manhattan. Cars are about the most selfish ways to haul your

Cars kill a lot more people then motorcycles, just not their owners.. From that perspective motorcycles are the safer option. No motorcycle causes hearing damage beyond the rider, and this is caused by wind noise not the engine. The &quot

If heat is an concern, you'd probably want to spec a thicker gauge wire.

I learned cable lacing in the aviation world. It is not uncommon to add a certain amount of extra (spare) cable runs to a loom for future use, you can also easily add cables to the outside of a loom. The tug method of tracing still works, y

Which government? I suspect a lot depends on what jurisdiction you're in. Do you have a family doctor? Do you trust him/her? Can they do the testing for you?

This would be an indirect death sentence to many. Involuntary confinement is extremely stressful and has been known to lead to irrational acts like suicide. Why do you think they take your belt and shoelaces when you get incarcerated?

Technically MS does own the OS, the end user is just granted a license to use it. They do however not own the hardware it runs on, so there should be limits on what they can do, I agree that the idea that they can act as law enforceme

How is this relevant to the current discussion?

Does their royalty free license have any guarantees that the license stays royalty free? If not, it could be an potential trap..

That is a common sentiment. I would be interested to hearing some counter arguments, that might be more productive then just saying it's not true.

With the pandemic of working from home, maybe we need an app to help us stop touching, eh, other bits of our anatomy?

And the sort of person who would try to figure out to fix it before even touching the package goes into ops/ops-sec instead.

Old joke: Every program can be (memory)optimized by at least one byte and has at least one bug in it. It therefore follows that every program can be reduced to a single byte that doesn't work.

Well, My 1999 motorcycle (Kawasaki Concours ZG1000) is still carbureted.. If there is an affordable product to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions without giving up my privacy to corporate black boxes I would totally be interested.

Never heard of that moniker, I heard "naturist" though. Might that be what you meant?

At some point in the thread the author complains that it isn't fair to point out the repetitive patterns "because the clear-text is all zeroes and this would be masked by actual data"

At a maximum speed of 28mpg it might classify as an electric bicycle, just like for instance the ELF: https://organictransit.com/ Some states however define a bicycle as having a maximum of 3 wheels, so that might be an iss
