Your comment would imply they both lack certain innovations we have but also have equally big ones they're ahead of us on. I don't really find that to be the case. I think it is awesome you can board a bus with a 10,000 yen note a

In china you were more than "fined" Friend's mum was spayed or whatever as punishment for giving birth to twins. Mind you in the 80s they were straight up executing couples who did swinging.

I don't get it, this is not a house with limited square footage. Discarding is of almost zero importance, in fact, you have it logically backwards because discarding incurs a cost of investing your precious time to make a decision. Whi

But here's the thing, they literally provide checkboxes for individual directories you want to sync. They've literally designed it to my needs (actually I was trying to simplify, the reality is I don't mix business but person

Seems a bit late to make hoopla about a much more minor infraction. With Onedrive I'm facing the nightmare that you are not allowed to configure it until syncing is in progress. If you pause syncing immediately on install, you're

So let me get this straight... I and at least one other friend (coincidentally who is a hardcore athlete and in accounting not tech) both noticed it really is the food that clouds our minds and makes us unproductive at work and fall asleep

So the problem is that Amazon is extremely non-transparent about the policy and what the triggers are, so you will never see it coming. This is exactly why it causes me so much anxiety, I've heard that if you have bad luck with one hig

I want to see everyone's true face bright and clear so I don't lose my own ability to filter them accordingly. It's like, do you want the friends you meet at church to be actual Christians? Well good then, stop having a dam

I didn't really understand your point insofar as it sounds like a truism you could plug in any company name for: "If everyone holding TSLA tried selling at this price, a small fraction would manage to execute orders at that price

Your thought kind of ignores the common case when there may be two classes of food within one society. I once asked a friend to find out from his Japanese coworkers the best place in Tokyo to go to a fancy place for more high end versions o
