The only way I can explain myself these numbers is heritage: Many people will at some point in their life have a heritage above typical yearly salaries. That information doesn't help much. We should find a mid-way between income, wealt

In Germany, not even prison escape is a crime per se (unless you hurt someone or damage property, of course - so it's mostly the "door-left-open"-scenario), because we recognize the elementary human desire to be free. And you

I am not a biologist, but from the press (yeah, no anti vaccination sites in Germany!) it is - Do the parents have autism? - Is the father old? - Is the mother old? - Was the child born (very early)? - Did the mother have certain illnesses

(1) Hitler was not a Christian* (2) Religion does not preach, people preach. It doesn't really matter what is in the text of these old books - the only relevant question is what people do. I couldn't care less if their theological

I don't eat meat and I don't use adblockers - both habits make me feel morally superior ;)

Not to defend OP, but to answer your question: I'd say you have far more choice concerning your religion than in your sexual orientation, race or age - at least in the Western Society, where you are free to go Christian->Atheist-&gt

There are a thousand more or less easy ways to pull this, but it is hard to stay unnoticed at this scale. You'd guess that every plugin/toolbox/freeware used by hundreds of thousands of people is running on some test-boxes&#x

It seems I do not really have to hope my vendor will provide an Android update for my phone, as Google distributes most cool new stuff using the app ecosystem. As with Inbox, I think Google is finally generating sufficient pressure on devel

As you seem to have a lot of insight into this topic: What do you think are the reasons for high abuse rates in foster families? I would think that the hugh number of resonable nice people interested in adoptin children in combination with

It's one of the large pains in our European system (or at least in Germany), that indeed we have no good process to give children from abusive families a better life. Still, corporal punishment is frowned upon in Germany (and illegal)

Don't you think adding your real-name would be a nice move when you choose to give names of people you disagree with?

For many security checks, a proxy in the same country would be sufficient. They might only check if you log in from Asia and America at the same time.

I don't know, is this really an important scenario? If I wanted to harm a specific individual, I would manipulate the individuals car (like I would today). And who wants to drive an undirected attack on everyone close? That would be co

A page nowadays is easily composed out of hundreds of different files, several MB in size. A jpg is small, easy to store and share. I'd go as far that the OCR of a screenshot gives me a ways better search base than the source code, wit

What's the problem with onymous? It's in all main dictionaries - nonymous is not (besides UD). Sure, it might not make sense looking at the Latin origin, but that's how language evolves.

"Save to Google Drive" will create screenshots when applied on common websites. I use this now instead of bookmarking, as the screenshots are OCRed by Google Drive, giving me a searchable archive of interesting sites!
