The Steam executable itself is a DRM system, as far as I am aware there is no way to download via the website as there is with GOG (or Humble's DRM free options or other DRM-free sites), so personally I don't consider Steam ever D

It reminds me of GOG's fckdrm.com site, that it looks like has been down for about a month but used to look like this: https://web.archive.org/web/20200817145700/https://fckdrm.co... I guess it woul

While my memory isn't 100% clear, I'm fairly sure I had a mask and I clearly remember the anesthesia person saying I would be out in a few seconds (which is what happened). There were three people doing the procedure, one just on

I don't know how common the different methods are but in my case I was certainly out and that was the intent. They did use propofol and it was like the time I was out just didn't happen. I have memory issues that seem to be rela

The question is how few cases. I would agree at some point extremely few cases would mean not a significant risk, but because single cases can potentially case the virus to be spread widely before they are noticed even fairly small numbers

I think you should not make such a statement without a citation. With a quick search I could not find any research that supports that claim and the CDC is still recommending surface transmission prevention measures (at the top of the list

Good point, although note that console game rental was also a thing at the time, it is easy to share cartridges (just not playing at the same time), and I'd guess there was a larger second hand market in console games as well. So ther

Just be careful that your DNS is sufficiently restricted; I've heard of DNS being the weak point for taking over accounts involving custom domains. I'm surprised there aren't more in person or by mail verification options ava

One issue I found 3-4 years ago was that some common tests undercount D2 by quite a bit (I forget if it was 20% just for D2 or I think it might have been 20% overall D2+D3 in some test samples). I found this because the test my doctor orde

Yes, you need keyword.enabled set to false otherwise Firefox will still search even though you have a different search box :(. In Firefox, it is also possible to set keyword.enabled to false and still search explicitly in the url bar via th

I agree with at least most of the criticism of "Why We Sleep" and haven't read the book. My concerns about messing up circadian rhythms have nothing to do with the book (other than that some of the advice in the book seems t

I have a non-24 hour circadian rhythm and I think they are usually if not always closer to 24 hours than to that, but it is an interesting idea and as someone who also has bad insomnia I can see the appeal. However, one thing to keep in mi

NetBSD (and I'd guess OpenBSD) are closer to that than any other similarly functional operating systems I know of. Still quite a lot of code (and arguably not complete, depending on how you define that) but way easier than Linux.

Another option is to always delete cookies and site data when you close Firefox and set exceptions for the few sites you care about. If you are like me and only start Firefox once or twice a day this prevents too much annoyance while limit

Thanks, I think it worked. At least they are no longer asking me to confirm the mobile number, although I can't seem to delete the unconfirmed number so who knows if there is still a way to use it to take over the account :(. Along t

Multiple Paypal reps told me that SMS is the only way. It is possible they are all incorrect :/. I'll look into it, thanks.

I wish someone would convince Paypal. They require SMS for verification, no other options at all.
