I'd read about small retro reflectors they bolt on when not in combat so the stealth fighters will show on domestic radars

The modules are expensive, and it destroys the blade, which can be very expensive when using real industrial ones meant to be resharpened. Personally I've had a very poor experience using a sawstop, as well as witnessing it cause young

My two bits as a carpenter w/18yrs table saw experience -- there are plenty of safe ways to use a tablesaw, fingers nowhere near the blade. SawStop's trip randomly, and the saw itself just sucks to use, its a bad design top to bot

Ldd can execute code in some cases; this came up as a side note during the xz investigations, and hadn't gotten alot of traction in the past. I figured some more attention could be good while everyone goes digging into unknown binaries

Unless you print a ton, cost is definitely an issue. I was excited when I got a free color laser that was fairly new, but it was over $200 just to replace the black; my inkjet and a dozen replacements is still cheaper than refilling the a

It'd be great if the sound effects went up in pitch as the bubbles get smaller. The little ones definitely sound different than the biggies. Separately, if it were an unending page where you keep scrolling after popping, instead of div

I think you can only do it from a desktop, or desktop-mode in gmail, should be a submenu on the message. A quick search did bring up that email in a few court cases, so short of being spoofed it probably is in fact google. A couple of the c

I think you'd have to check the email headers, the sender can still be spoofed Edit: on second thought, I don't know how Google handles their own domain-as-sender

Google/gmail had a bug where if you changed the page to a trailing dot and logged out, it would "log out" but the non-dot version would stay logged in if you navigated back. Report was dismissed as a non-issue, if i recall. T

Thats not a fair assumption. I know more than a few people who have flat expressions or speech and their personality is totally opposite. For some its how they are raised, others it a muscular issue. And yet others are awkward in front of

I had no idea ShotSpotter was recording conversations, always assumed the nature of analyzing for a sound signature would be throwing much of the data away immediately

I think it will always be a thing for those who play games & like to dabble with tech, either to fix a bug, learn a language, or just see how the sausage is made.

'hits back' is a funny way to put it; just because the rust is "smaller than a pin head" doesn't make it ok, nor that its from dust accumulated from transport, still stains the metal. Just admit its a problem and wr

Without digging deep, it's an optional POSIX utility; likely still included for historical reasons, and/or a couple developers still use it somewhere

Not only is this a terrible place to ask, the reality is even if you reach them they will likely extort you and your production, and put your family at risk. My coworkers friend ended up in a barrel of acid. If you've got a killer idea

I'm not familiar enough to read between the lines, could you add a little context? Is the issue poor identification, or is cloudflare shielding pirates?

I really wish they'd stop renaming things. I swear I already had google wallet, then was forced to download Gpay, and now I'm sitting here trying to guess if Gpay = Google Pay. Edit: sure, I could spend more time digging in to loo
