It was actually wonderful. My girlfriend at the time, now wife, had a grandmother who was an avid reader but didn't own a computer or have internet. They were able to get her to switch to a Kindle because of the cellular delivery featu

That's general smack talk, which can be brutal, but is besides the original point. The bigger point is that if a woman's sex is revealed, say by using voice chat, then it is inevitable until they are harassed and insulted for bein

I understand that. But I would hardly call it sensationalizing. It's a mixture of the best of what we had at the time (others have posted talking about how the tests have changed/improved), and the fact that reporting on things in

Please correct me if I am wrong, but I feel like you are trying to say more with "but then 'cases' became some kind of top-line media metric". Should cases not be an important metric for people to know?

My first job while in school was doing web development with a LAMP stack. I had zero PHP experience, so it was 100% learning on the job and my learning resources were basically the official docs, a PHP book (can't remember which) I got

I am pretty much the exact same as you. Only difference is I set a "reading challenge" every year, but it's more of a guide then a rule. I've failed the goal multiple years; I am just happy as long as I am within a few b

This is a great write up of a great album! Really love how they show the inspiration for certain songs/parts of the album, and how the album went on to influence others. It's a more honest portrayal of how music is created (heavy

I had a motor issue with my dishwasher. With the help of a Youtube video, I was able to disassemble the full machine, identify the issue, and put it all back together. I don't know what going rate's are for fixing dishwashers, but

I disagree. Reddit is worse because if you don't have an account, you are constantly pushed to make one, or get pop-ups to download the ad. They also seem to limit functionality, like seeing all comments, unless you have an account. Th

Unfortunately what you describe as "easy" isn't for a lot of people. Spend anytime on Facebook and you will see clearly bogus stories racking up likes/comments and driving people nuts. That is the reality of the situatio

The comment you are referring is quoting from the article where officers mention being thrown into situations they aren't trained for (mental health episodes, etc). Defunding the police literally calls for taking from the enormous budg

You might be surprised to see the rate at which police are charged and convicted of a crime while on the job. Hint: The number is incredibly low.

To expand upon that, the hard part is that every agency has a unique IT infrastructure (sometimes multiple infrastructures in a single organization) and budgets that vary wildly. It's not a one size fits all approach across the whole g

I am kind of on the same page as you. Before the Pentagon stuff came out, my adjacency to UFO's was really liking the X-Files. I casually started digging into this stuff and it's clearly a global phenomenon; but when you look at c
