It’s not a fake, it is made by HP. Also, it has value as a calculator, not just nostalgic sentimental value. It works just as well as the original. I own one because a while ago I bought, one by one, iconic world changing calculators to co

It’s interesting to me that “gives all my private correspondence to federal police without a warrant or judicial oversight” isn’t enough to get people to quit gmail, but “offers to write my email replies for me” is. Adults shouldn’t use gma

If only. The only way to delegate enforcement is to give them a monopoly on the legitimate use of violence. Unfortunately all such potential organizations are run by human beings, who, when given violence as a tool, will use that violence
