Yeah, I'd like more details about this. If I can use it to find my phone in this state, other people can too.

Where do you live that no one is buying houses or taking out a car loan?

Wow, it sounds like you've had an unusually negative experience with glasses. Mine aren't heavy, or even hard, and I certainly don't wear them 24/7. 16/7, I guess, but I definitely don't sleep in them! Mine pre

Thanks for the recommendation. I know what my issue is, and it isn't that, but hopefully others can benefit from the info you've shared!

This article was a big surprise to me for another reason: I've lived in a variety of regions in the U.S. and loose produce has been the norm my whole life, at least for items that aren't really small (berries usually come in packa

It almost makes me glad that my tear ducts are defective and I can't wear contact lenses. I think I might genuinely be willing to live without whatever advantages people think these will provide if it means avoiding having all my visua

The problem is that anyone who later needs to know what was in the meeting, even the two original participants, has no access to it. On the whole, more time is lost by people not being able to refer to what was actually said later than is s

Would I, though? If I was convicted as Keirans, I should probably be able to make a stronger case for that spelling than the other!

I haven't at an airport, but I have at freestanding ones. Having fuel delivered to a tank with a pump isn't really that involved as infrastructure goes. You're just buying the fuel wholesale instead of retail. You don't

I like to think my commitment to the truth is high enough to do what Woods did and stand up for my identity, but honestly after getting out of jail and a mental institution for insisting I was Woods, I might just accept being Keirans from n

by smeej 3y ago
Came here wondering the same thing. It's not like Woods would even had a reason to come up with Keirans' name, so did Keirans provide it when the bank was investigating? Like, "Oh, I'll bet I know who you're talking

The end of the article was the most surprising to me, because in spite of their favorable self-comparison to Proton VPN, I had never heard of them before. I've spent the last 7+ years neck deep in the privacy and security space, work

What's your source for this? I'm just realizing I might be way off-base, but I thought airport car rental places all had their own fueling stations, and just overcharged you because they can and there's nothing you can do abo

It looks like you're getting downvotes, but most kids would think this was an awesome way to get to school!

How does parking fix this, though? The same number of cars need to arrive and leave at approximately the same time. Each car takes up the same amount of space. And it's not like children can all just run around the parking lot looking

Oh you're right. I misread the part about a tube in the throat and thought they were ending up in the neck. Though, with lymph nodes as connected as they are, why do the liver cells stay where they're planted, so to speak?

by smeej 3y ago
I immediately imagined people with much larger liver masses in their necks and got to wondering how safe it would be. Is there risk of impingement on things like arteries or the spine were they to continue to grow? What's the margin of

This entire article reads like an April Fools joke. It can be summarized, "I can't understand the mind of the God I think exists, therefore there must not be one, even though all the evidence points to willfulness behind what I h

Google went public in August 2004, so <5 months after Googlemail launched, which is what we're talking about here. And it's hard to criticize regular people for not seeing privacy issues in 2004 that weren't surfaced until

Proton is great, but WOW did they royally screw up a most recent Android app update. Dark mode now makes text black on dark gray. Biometric locks were turned off without user action. Sent messages and received messages with no font set show

Did Google even know they were going to be an ad company back then? Internet advertising barely even seemed like a thing back in 2004, and I don't think anybody actually realized just how well you would be able to target advertising

I still wish email could have evolved with Google Wave. Remember that? It was much more like a rich messaging chat app that could also handle emails. I don't think I'll ever understand why Google thought the invite rollout would w

I'm just thinking the entire genetics community has to be gigantic, and they can't be the only ones with frustration about an auto-changing feature. Surely lots of somebodies in genetics know somebodies at Microsoft who might be

The article has now been edited to note that Excel now offers a toggle to turn this feature off. How long did the entire genetics community struggle with this problem before deciding to rename a bunch of genes, making their own data harder

I did too, and I've been sight-reading without thinking about it since preschool. I'm really unaccustomed to having to look hard at a word to see what it says, and that was the only way I could get through this page.

If it's written in American English, wouldn't you rather know that from the start? I'd be more annoyed to have all the U's removed after my O's and still see a UK flag.

Strong second for Man and Woman He Created Them. If you can get through it without coming to a deeper understanding of yourself (whether in agreement with its ideas or in opposition to them), you'll be the first person I've met

Why do you think they're like that? Whether it's nature or nurture, doesn't luck still play a significant role in what nature or nurture they received?

No, I'm saying that on a population level, it's rational to assume the luck of the circumstances you're born into, on the whole, is likely to be reflected in your average income over time, and while it's a blunt tool, ta
