No, even this step-by-step tutorial is not easy for "normal" user. It's plagued with obscure terms and concepts (keypair, keyserver, public key, web of trust, revocation certificate etc.). Sure, for us, developers/engine

With all due respect, everything you said sounds like some kind of conspiracy theory. If you have isolated this case, write a blog post of how to reproduce it, post said photos & videos, so people might at least take their time to read

Vilnius has a small Energy and Technology Museum[0] located in the building of the first power plant (opened in 1903) in country. Probably not worth going to Vilnius just for it, but if you happened to be nearby, it's worth its time. 0

It's nice to know that Tesla can do that, but sorry, I just don't see anything "magical" in this video -- speed wasn't that high (~110 km/h), the gap was quite wide and the two cars on the right lane also manag

Amazon, in particular, sends packages in ridiculously oversized boxes. I've received kitchen knife from Amazon that was packed in a box more than twice the size of a shoebox. Literary hundreds of same items would have fitted there.

I can confirm that. I write C for embedded systems every day, but for better or worse, I don't see any replacement for it in foreseeable future. C++, Python, Java etc. might be used at higher levels (GUI, for example), but all the guts
