I absolutely believe it could be 90%. And it happens a lot more often than people think. The estimated average across the general population is roughly 1 in 4 for girls and 1 in 6 for boys. The vast majority are by family (3 in 4). But I&#x

That's because the applications in macOS are in the sealed volume as part of the operating system. On iOS, apps are managed by the operating system. On macOS, they're files.

From the article, it was reported to the police. The lawsuit came later and Uber didn’t try to deny it happened. From a civil law perspective, it doesn’t matter who did it. The police report is substantial evidence that the event wasn’t mad

Emergency services (with the proper software) have been able to get your precise location from your phone for a while now. This isn’t a new capability and shouldn’t be surprising.

Concrete is smooth and flat. Emergency services have easy access. If you land at a shallow enough angle, you’re just scraping. Given how many planes there are in the air, gear up landings on a runway are well understood. Plowing the plane i

A large number of people don’t want the existing system. They want Jesus on the throne, enforcing morality and making sure the poor people to work instead of being lazy grifters that take good people’s hard-earned money. This isn’t a hot ta

I haven’t heard that many complaints about Preview. (Except for PDF forms. Absolute disaster. See 1.) But it’s not perfect and I can definitely appreciate that somebody would a very different opinion of it from my own. So, I’m sharing my pe

I don’t think it would. Humans really like to blame other people for things they inflict on themselves. This is less painful than learning self-awareness. The current Republican Party blatantly preys on this weakness and gives people an ene

There isn’t any app on windows or linux that can match what Preview does. One thing you may not know about is you can map anything in the menu bar to a keyboard shortcut. The application doesn’t even know you did that. That’s an operating s

Let me try again. I shouldn't have mentioned willpower. Let me restate the problem. I try to do something and I have the physical sensation of hitting a wall that shouldn't be there. Thoughts never stop at that part of the brain.

You’re cocky. :) Some people are special. The preferred term is neurodivergent. ;) There are times you just can’t fix a broken brain by trying harder or finding an alternative. It can be really difficult to understand if you’ve never experi

I should make an exception for suggestions on how to change my environment to better suit me. Those don’t bother me because they don’t fundamentally misunderstand the problem.

No. It’s actually philosophy. Let me put this in another terms. The whole purpose of the world they are describing is to imagine a place where they are not limited. The fact that this place doesn’t make sense or can’t exist is irrelevant. I

I’d like to add a quick sidenote . I wouldn’t read too much into the logic of mythological worlds and realms. Their purpose is narrative, not scientific. They don’t even need to be internally consistent. No one expects Greek mythology to ma
