Look AND taste. They are starch-based, biodegradable and nontoxic. Not very tasty but I've tried one!

It is unfortunate, but the Evo has a front-mount intercooler to cool the turbocharger, a necessary and large piece of performance equipment.

That era of games really appeals to me too, and the games from then seem to require a lot of patience and are so unforgiving. Also let's not forget the dawn of MMOs, with UO and then the revolutionary EverQuest in '99.

I developed/run a private server for the game that many members of the Diablo team made after Diablo II (Hellgate: London) and the same technique is used for random dungeon generation, but using 3D assets and 2d flat floormap shapes to

There's a great horror novel called The Fisherman by John Langan that heavily involves fishing and the catharthic solitude it can bring, even (or especially) in times of tragedy or stress. I highly recommend it, but besides that, this

I've only had 2 games like that in my life, EverQuest (also called EverCrack) and Factorio (also called Programmer Crack). I had to go cold turkey or I was skipping the gym and meals and not sleeping!

The tone and content of your post are both unhelpful and needlessly dismissive. American has a rich, diverse, and passionate food culture that includes many whole foods and innovations created there. A lot of processed food is eaten, but so

I'm curious to hear what specifically is too bloated in Spring Boot in your opinion for container based microservices. I've been writing microservices that run in docker in Java for a few years, then moved to Kotlin recently, all

I do wonder if we'll ever reach a liberal enough society to be OK with machine-generated porn of all types, especially those taboo or illegal now (child pornography, sadism, zoophilia, etc). I could foresee it being banned before it ev

Both you and pmontra above are completely misreading thaumasiotes's comments in a knee-jerk reaction. They were simply paraphrasing the intent of the quote from Trajan... If you have an issue with it, bring it up with Trajan.

They did unencrypt the assets and save files, so maybe some modders will add new levels?

There are many, many beautiful cities and towns in the US. San Francisco is not one of them, if you mean the actual city.

The analogy holds no water, it is infinitely easier to broadcast your speech on another platform (or make your own platform) than to deal with state level censorship. Publishing them on a company's dime and expecting platform neutralit

I'll second the thought on Kotlin, and in fact I just trained a diverse team of PHP, RoR, and Python developers on Kotlin with Spring Boot, and our platform migration project to Kotlin massively reduced our LoC and increased each engin

From what I've seen I think it's around 38-40% state+federal when you reach about $200-300k then about 50% by $1m annual income... Might be better or worse this year with the new tax bill, not sure.

I hope not. Unless there is evidence of a crime that has occurred or evidence that a crime is planned, they have no business (constitutionally) bothering a citizen based on that kind of tip. This is how lives are ruined when there are no vi

This is an extremely dangerous tendency we have as a society, to throw out the concepts of freedom and due process and justice when children are involved. There's 0 reason to "investigate" someone that leaves a pervy comment

You do have a good point about the track record of some substitutes, but that ignores the track record of the health and environmental damage of our current meat consumption.

Can you clarify your point? Are you implying that the alternative of pre-vaccine history (which is very clearly documented) is preferable to the miniscule and heavily studied risk of negative vaccine effects? Back when many children routine

Probably not directly tied to its similarity to OAuth, but I'm sure the name Oath came from thousands of man hours of brand psychology assessment and audience testing. Oath is the stapled together corpses of the adtech of Verizon and A

Many governments have made clear that children are unable to consent on their own to many things (the "Age of Consent" itself comes to mind), and before the age at which they are able to consent, their parents act as a steward of

While you are right, it's not a choice between pure life extension on one side and pure weight loss for attractiveness... Because the "healthiness" of a diet, in my opinion, includes its sustainability (do you regain the weig

I'm glad you feel good, but your health hasn't really been established yet. A few things to remember: - 3 months is not enough time to know if a diet is good for you personally in the long term, even anecdotally - weight loss is a

If you look into it a bit, you'll find that the article title I assume you are reacting to isn't quite right. They are targeting a very tiny slice of mosquito species that both bite humans and carry malaria. The scientists involve
