Just tested it myself with guerillamail and mailinator. And as you say, "Disposable email addresses are not allowed". I get why they'd do this because obviously they want to capture potential buyers of their software to peste

Why not? It'd be a complete package then.

I'm sure it's recently shifted from 400 because not that long ago I could downvote (not that I did) and now I can't. Although I may have imagined that but I'm pretty sure I could.

The complaint isn't about in-depth knowledge of "little pieces of felt or rubber to prevent my cabinets from being loud when they slam" or advice paint stripper suitable for particular wood types but simply being able to poin

A visit to Bunnings isn't a visit to Bunnings without a snag in white bread (with onions). Sadly, Bunnings effort to open up in the UK has fallen flat on its face and so I won't get to enjoy the Saturday morning Bunnings snag unle

Too old to compete? How the hell did they justify that one? Because you were too old, you'd have an unfair advantage? What was their reasoning behind that one?

Seconded. Went to visit earlier on in the year while I was in Oxford for a weekend. Popped in to get out the rain, stayed for most of the afternoon. There is a ton of interesting artefacts from all manner of sciences, including some gruesom

I hear nothing about people not trusting Facebook, other than from those who don't use it. But plenty of people who either trust them or don't care either way who do put their personal data and photographs on Facebook. It's o

You and me both. I see enough ads as it is and there are HN clients just don't show ads, so not sure why I would change to use one that does. It'd have to be a really good client.

Good question. I understand the motivation behind it and am impressed with the work done but can't imagine it being used as someone's primary os.

I get facebook and was a user (on and off as I almost annually deleted my account) but then I found it a massive waste of time so gave up entirely just after Christmas. I did join back up again for one specific facebook group. however I was

The comment threads on YouTube are usually inane. If they're not inane, they're racist or homophobic (or both at the same time). I spent some considerable time the other day reporting racist and hateful comments on a single YouTub

Often comments in code are used to generate documentation, so without those comments your function won't be documented.

And apparently the judge disagrees with you. You could say the sky is green and the grass is blue. Doesn't really matter. The white house has declared @realdonaldtrump as the official account and thus it is.

Just googled myself for the first time in years. I was surprised how little information about me exists. It took until page 5 for a reference to me rather than other people with the same name and that was in relation to a limited company I

Who wants to run a generator all day? Solar panels, bank of batteries, generator to top up the batteries in the winter when you're not generating electricity from the panels. I live off grid and this is my set up. During the summer I d

To get what he wants? Would that be a job? So are you saying that in all your interviews you've had in the past you've been absolutely, positively 100% truthful about your experience and knowledge? That you've never inflated

I didn't mind those lines across the screen. I could definitely see them but didn't find it bothered me. I couldn't go back to a non-retina LCD screen now though. And I suspect going back to my old FW900 might be something I

On a slightly different but related subject, I live on a boat with a diesel engine. Being able to hear the engine run and hear the change of tone is something I couldn't live without. I often run the engine to heat my water and the ver

The Iiyama Vision Master Pro 454 should be one of those. And the Sony FW900 24" wide-screen trinitron. I had both those screens. The Sony FW900 is without doubt the best CRT monitor ever built (IMHO). It was a ridiculous monitor, both

When you say "This isn't funny", can I confirm you're suggesting that you don't find it funny rather than making that judgement call for all of us?

Absolutely this. It's been a pretty consistently useful tool over the past 10 plus years since I've been using it in various locations to get involved with cycling, tech meetups, hiking, drinking beer. One of the most useful websi

How do you think people used to make friends? I'll give you a clue. Work, school, university, clubs for particular interest groups (hiking, pottery, computers, flower arranging, making beer etc.) All of which still exist and if nothing

In my case, I live on a boat so don't have the room for a 45 or 65 inch TV. Laptop it is. But there are many, many circumstances why you'd watch TV on a laptop. I don't believe airlines would look too fondly on someone draggi
