For what it's worth, not everyone can pick up all of those channels with a $20 antenna. I can pick up NBC, PBS, and a few odd local channels with no national affiliation. I'd imagine those in cities and metro areas would probably

This is perfect. I bought two Zeros a few months back and my ONLY issue with them was how cumbersome having to use a USB hub was for wireless and keyboard connectivity. Looks like this may still require that for initial setup, but it makes

Funny how far Opera has fallen these past few years. Years ago it was setting trends with tabs. Now it's yet another Chromium-based browser.

I'm open to the possibility that she's a liar, but until that's proven I'm inclined to assume innocent until proven guilty and feel bad for her.

In terms of general use, yeah definitely no problem with the CPU at all. It's zippy enough. But I also do a lot of CPU-intensive gaming (Cities: Skylines w/ tons of mods, RimWorld, Banished, etc.).

Kim Jong-nam's death is messed up enough, but that poor woman. She was unwittingly used as a political weapon to kill a guy. She's gotta deal with that forever, in addition to any charges or sentencing that comes of this.

I'm far too broke to shell out cash for a new Mobo and CPU right now, but I'm excited to see what this does to Intel's prices for older CPUs. I'd love to upgrade my i5-2400 soon-ish.

Just as an enthusiast I'm finding what they do rather routine now. The first stage's automated landings were REALLY exciting while they were trying to figure it out, EXTRA exciting when they stuck one, then less and less exciting

Same reason the ESRB came to be. Government basically said "Figure this crap out, or we will" and publishers and devs came together to hammer out the rating system.

I pretty much stick to private repos to avoid this being a problem. I'm still generally pretty careful about it, but in case I slip up it's nice to know the info isn't just floating around out there for anyone to grab.

Yeah it doesn't surprise me beyond not realizing those companies were structured enough to have someone with a tit le of CEO, but it doesn't really change or mean anything as far Bannon goes.

I don't think I've ever actually read the standards and I've been doing this 12 or so years now. I just kind of picked up on what was considered kosher and what wasn't over time. And then when having a "XHTML STRICT

In terms of results, responsiveness, and flexibility, doing it with a div (or some other block-level element) and flexbox is the best way to do it. In terms of standards and tabular data, doing it with a table is probably more correct, but

While I've never managed to last longer than 5 minutes with the game, I am appreciative of it for inspiring a new era of management sim type games like Banished, Rim World, Gnomoria, etc.

My mother still calls it Fox Fire and Newegg, "Egghead", although I think it's mostly to annoy me. It doesn't though, but I let her think it does because it's funny.

While I don't like the branding move at all, I think the concern that people will start calling them moz-colon-forward-slash-forwadslash-a is a little ridiculous. Is Sony's line of laptops Analog Wave One Zero? Is Verizon Verizonc

In some ways mine wasn't as simple as it seems. My primary source of consistent access to the internet was a 1 hour time-limited, content-restricted AOL account. I had to learn and acquire anything I needed within those confines. Even

If you're robbing an iPhone user, you'd probably be safe hacking off a thumb. Can't imagine many people give up the convenience of using their thumbs to unlock. With me they'd have to take my index fingers because I'

Tatooine is beyond the Republic's sphere of influence. Droids only develope personalities after going a long period of time without a memory wipe (a quirk of their programming?) R2, 3PO, Chopper, and K-2 are the only canonical droids w
