Ok. It's possible I read it before that part of the book was released, but it's equally possible I forgot about the plot.

It's been years since I read it. How does it hype up cryogenic preservation? I don't recall it being a major theme and it doesn't seem to fit into the HP context.

I'm not sure that it's truly all down to software, but as far as it is, you don't have start at zero -- there are excellent, competitive raw photo processors available as free software, like darktable and RawTherapee. Still a

It's reality TV. You might as well submit Predator (1987) as evidence. (I'm not disputing that human cooperation is useful and necessary in the real world.)

It used to be that Google Earth worked passably well for me in Chromium, and was a slideshow in Firefox. As of a few weeks ago, it's the other way round. No idea what's changed. On a sidenote, is Google Earth still a maintained pr

I'm kind of disappointed that the Fossil hybrid watches don't do the trick where the watch keeps working when the smart has run out of juice. That said, I get four weeks of battery life, so it's never been an issue in practic

Nothing happened to stainless steel bottles, they're available. About twice as heavy as a plastic bottle, when empty that is. Full it's more like 900g vs 750g.

Won't it also kill you if you put something acidic in the bottle? Like water with a spritz of lemon? That's why copper pots have a lining, anyway. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verdigris

Title should be How This All Happened (2021) And since that is still very vague, here's the first line: "This is a short story about what happened to the U.S. economy since the end of World War II."

It's really no different. Take a pot, toss in a handful of popcorn with some oil. Turn on stove for a couple of minutes until pops subside. Sprinkle with salt. Done. I never bothered with the butter etc, though maybe I should.

You don't have to carry it, no. But if you don't carry your ID (or equivalent) and they have a reason to ask for it (e.g. you are a suspect of a crime), they can require you to take them wherever you keep your ID or to the station

It's the same in Germany, but I still wouldn't expect the police to ask for my ID when asking for directions. The fact that you need to be able to identify yourself when asked doesn't mean that they are supposed to ask for it
