I sat before a second-hand 20" 1280x1024 monitor in 2001. And it was old (as in >5 years) at that point. then there was Iiyama Vision Master Pro 514 with 140-ish kHz horisontal scan

train is the wrong approach. you earn respect with them, and then they defend you. lol moment was when we with a girlfriend playfully fell down on sofa, but the then master-of-house siberian 6kg cat considered that a threat to me. he jumped

^^ Behold the religious belief in "peer review" "field experts" and the attempt at argument reversal at the end. This is what middle ages were famous for, and it took Renaissance to get rid of this. edit: Giordano Bruno

"There are also some shared values between all these people" is guilt by association by definition. The rest of your comment is even worse. Cults? Consider AGW cult where people reject any attempt of a discourse because "sci

bury them in 10m of sand and nothing short of close hit by a 150kt warhead will do anythin. it is also cheaper than risking tankers

idk why you think "nation states" are any better at corporate governance than poster examples of bad like f/ex Boeing. Or Facebook. Or Microsoft. Or Enron for that matter. I assure you, in "nation states", that is i

I remember the time when I did not need any fancy frameworks, webfonts, tons of JS and effin cdns to present my thoughts to the world. This time is now. Your bickering about how to more efficienty bloat a page is... pitiful.

Doesn't matter. They're instututionally incapable to rising back to the art of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", so it's all water under the bridge.

Well, IF. If you have enough skill you can a do stoppie in a turn, turn around and shoot off the way you came from. But this is bordering on stunt riding, not something to be relied on for day-to-day riding where you have to have enough mar

What he names "fishtailing" is what is known as "highside" in motorbike circles. When the rear wheel loses grip, it and the entire frame except the front fork moves sideways. When the rear wheel inevitably retains grip,

That's a lowside. Turn very gently if weather invites ice (or wet autumn leaves which are about as creepy as ice), never use front brakes. Locking and then suddenly reacquiring grip on the rear wheel causes highsides on motorbikes, it&
