Text editors still have a line at 80 characters, which comes from punch cards.

> Police are on the look out for these scammers NOT to jail em but to collect their own share. They walk the scammers to the atm and take part or all of what they find there - usually, half. Have a source for this..?

This is great, but I feel like it's wrong that regular people think they have to step in to fight spam. After all, these messages benefit actual companies. I receive many spam messages from American companies that are legit. Why can&#x

My bank (Fineco) requires passwords to be 8 characters. Yup, I don't mean minimum or maximum, but exactly 8 characters. That's got to make brute-forcing about 1,000,000 times easier, and I cannot think of a single good reason to i

Sure, I'm not saying there's no reason for them not to be expensive. Just that they are, and I bet that's one of the main reasons why they're not mainstream, yet.

Personally, I would love an electric car but they all seem to be too expensive (I'm in Europe). I bought a 2005 Opel Corsa that I use to drive ~3000km/mo. and it runs great. Paid 3,500 for it.

This is awesome if it means being able to play AOE2 or a clone on Linux. I'm not sure I understand if engine means playable game..?

The grid is perhaps 5% of what Bootstrap does, and as a whole it's a lot more convenient than starting from scratch every time.

Unless all major browsers agree on how <main> is parsed. Then that's how it's parsed.

Got it. Thanks.

I never got the exact reason. Scams..? Most retailers don't do it.

Very nice. I spent a lot of money and time before diacovering Transferwise.

Ah. I didn't know this. Even in different currencies?

Looks like Bitcoin is more like gold that you stash, and Bitcoin Cash more like money that you buy things with.

I used to own the really annoying MacBook Pro mid-2016, and after 11 months I've still had to find something to connect via USB-C. Do a lot of people use it?

They are meant to do that, but corporations pay better.

Google is amazing. They are the best in using AI and CS in general to make my life easier. I now use 80% Google products for email, phone, photos, maps, etc. I just hope I never lose access to my account :-\

Depends on what platform you are. I'm currently on Ubuntu and I use Google Inbox wrapped in an Electron app. I used to use Mailbox (which I think became Google Inbox? or was it Sparrow that did), Sparrow, Airmail. Thunderbird turns man

Google Inbox would be an example, but there are so many and they all work similarly. Modern features are snoozing messages, automatic grouping of emails by type (promotions, spam, important, finance, family, etc.), and fewer buttons and opt

WOW, I used to use Thunderbird until around 2010 when I moved to more modern clients, it's so sad to see that they're still stuck in 2010 in terms of design.

Estonia is awesome. An extremely poor country outside Tallin (according to a single documentary I've watched), they went tech to try to thrive as a country. Takes some balls, it's either that or tax heaven (which is something I th

I'm not talking about ownership, I'm talking about storage of data. I wouldn't be happy if Google owned my emails, but I'm happy they store them so that I don't have to run a server in my kitchen.
