I think using the system they used to provide a hotfix for a browser-breaking issue does not clash with the spirit of their prior pledge. I feel a complaint like this verges unhelpfully in to the pedantic.

My neighbors and I rented some goats to clear up our properties in Berkeley. It was pretty neat, they are very fast eaters. Took 3 goats about a day and a half to clear out our yards.

A couple months ago, I googled 'whiteboard amazon', clicked the first result, and was taken to a well structured amazon page for a whiteboard that had 5 stars. Looking at it a little closer, I noticed that of the 143 reviews, 143

Kind of related to something that I've been chewing on: I've read things (outside of the OP) that say the universe is expanding and also speeding up it's expansion, as neighbors exert less of a pull on each other the further

The actual photos on the actual website linked in this post show scooters on a public sidewalk. The text says "For Property Owners" because that is who they are advertising to . The fact of the matter is that this company is adve

Calling scooters "trash" and then using that extreme hyperbole to stretch meaning to "littering" contributes nothing to a discussion. This is not reddit.

Sous vide needs way more than 20 minutes, but you are correct that once it's reached the target internal temp, the time doesn't much matter (beyond going too far). Typically, about 90 minutes is a good spot for almost all temps wi
