I can't edit it now, but in retrospect, calling other HN users outright pedophiles was inappropriate, and uncalled for. I should have chosen a better retort

Allowing 14 year olds to use an app to control a sex toy is still disgusting, and a policy allowing it is equally disgusting. Policy should be changed then. And anyone downvoting dare to actually have a conversation about what you find so a

For me those are not objects upon individual examination except the house - the witch is barely identifiable as a witch; its generally a triangle body with a hat not at all shaped like a witch's typical pointy one. There are cloud form

This is neat! I was fairly surprised when a few that were instantly in my mind were actually correct - Back to the Future, and Wizard of Oz, Ghost Busters, Big Lebowski, to name a few. And I don't think its simply because of the likeli

I'm surprised anyone thought the name was a good idea since HyperTerminal has been around since the 1980s...and I'm also surprised that Hilgraeve hasn't sued them yet

TBH I'm having a real tough time reading this on the sarcasm-scale haha I think the big problem though is that for every scam investor, there is at least one visionary who might actually pull it off, and its not always easy to tell the

I think it might have been on the show, Drugs Inc. that I heard this -a gang member explaining how they'd use a drone with thermal over residential college areas, where students would often grow pot; then they'd knock on the door

Ironically you have to be careful doing this, as their systems can ban you for too many reports, if they aren't all flagged as 'legitimate' scammers. The last time I filed a report I had this new warning show up at the bottom

In fall arrest this is a common term, and it's super accurate, regardless whether it's common with rock climbers, these are definitely anchors. So it's not surprising that a MIT paper would use it. A more specific example, Bl
