Its funny. It was always said here in the USA that the far-right christians were the 'idiot anti-vaxxers', but it seems the orthodox jews are having their 'hold my beer' moment. It brings up a good discussion of where pe

You get ignored by lots of international companies that dont want to play by your silly and often unprofitable rules. Leading to a loss of choice and quality in goods and services, and a general depression of the economy over time. The soft

Most new cars are now either high-compression naturally aspirated, or turbocharged. Both of which benefit from increased octane. If you have an old, or economy car, with lower compression, you will in fact see a bit more horsepower and low

I have seen this in my own friends and family. But unlike 10 years ago, when fox was an easy outlier to pick on, most news seems to push a routhless agenda now. I have been called a: filthy capitolist, ballless socialist, bigot, racist, sn

I think, as your posts demonstrate, reading too much in to any action is problematic. If a platonic touch is 'symbolic stomping' to you, perhaps the issue is larger than a single action.

The trip you mention is 200-250miles, depending on route. Thats about $2 a mile, is that considered cheap when last mile is still an issue? Asking seriously, I have no concept of rail pricing.

Google the 'Voder'. A speech synthisis keyboard from 1939 using the concept you describe. There are some great demo videos of it.

This happens all the time when doing onsite tech. Everythig stops while the union authorized guy does the simple thing before anyone can continue their non-union contract work. I had to start baking the cost into the price after the first f

The first acura nav systems were totally gps-free. They used gyros, compass, and speed data from the car, and managed to do pretty well. I imagine a similar system on top of gps and perhaps even cell/wifi/radio data to get near se

Looks like your concept is thought out, but I will ask my requisite 'new app' questions... 1. If the app is 'free', where does the revenue come from? Will you seek to monitize differently in the future? 2. Is any data, t

There is plenty of truth to much of the china situation, not just FUD. While the Potus has bounced between 'i love china' and 'we need to do something about these people', the rampant IP theft negatively affects nearly

Pretty clear case of domain squatting, as they do not posess the same org name and clearly did this out of spite. Clever, but not sophosticated. I can imagine they have a strong case with icann.

No thanks. Forcing millions from their homes is unlikely, and you couldn't pay me 1m to live in the city. Just because mostly that same population screwed up the countryside with irresponsible energy use does not entitle them to now as

>actual astrologers Ha. 1. No. There is no measure of an 'actual' in fraud. 2. Who cares what any self-identifying swindler thinks? 3. Wow amazon, that is next level low.

Sharecropper is a great paralell. A sharecropper has no rights to buy his own land, and is forced into a psudeo-slavery, getting all of the burdens and none of the rights to his labor. Sounds unethical.
