   I use a Kinesis advantage keyboard. It's expensive and ugly but comfortable. I would not go back to another keyboard ever again. Have a look at this review https://www.anandtech.com/show/7125/kinesis-advantage

   I don't think that is fair. I don't think he has pushed a culture of racism but one of rapid growth. That rapid growth has allowed racism to grow unchecked, and that is a failure of management at the highest level. But, to say tha

   My Dad was on heavy painkillers near the end. His partner had to take his credit card off of him. It was the only way to keep him safe. I'm not saying that is where you are but it worked for us.

   I suspect you are smarter than you give yourself credit for. Many 14 year olds could not have written that well. That's totally okay and they can still learn how to later in life.

   Your points are valid and you can discuss them here. However your tone is the problem.

   I'm not sure there is much point in encryption if the OS is used to protect the encryption keys the same way it is used to protect the data it is encrypting.

   The only downside is that people like myself are unlikely to know anyone who can supply an invite.

   Gah, I just Googled "truck nuts". I thought it was something to do with wheel nuts. I was sadly mistaken. Why would people put that on their own vehicle?

    Yeah, when I saw that I thought negatively of the product. I'm not a "badass", I'm a professional that get's work done. This makes me feel like I'm not going to want this product.

    It's fair to say that this falls under the current "culture war". Any criticism may or may not be politically motivated. Any support may or may not be politically motivated. The results of this data gathering exercise is alar

    We have a free health line. It operates 24/7. You talk to an operator who puts you in a queue to talk to a triage nurse. They tell you if you need to go to the ER.

    I live with free healthcare. The last three trips to the emergency department have been over eight hour waits. My father's cancer treatment was not covered so the last year of his life cost him everything. On the other side my child&#x

    Well, yeah, there is also the chance that we don't solve it at all. I just don't think you can design a political solution to this. Other than mass killings and I'm not for that at all. We have to develop technologies that im

    Yeah I have neighbors that have small motorbikes. Here you are limited to 250cc until you get your full license. So there is a market for 250cc bike that rev insanely fast and make a lot of noise. When they leave their culdesac they go full

    It amazes me that in the US you can fix for the life of your mortgage. Here in NZ 5 years is close to the max.

    The forces that drove prices are over. Low interest rates, and low productivity due to COVID-19. As interest rates rise people will no be able to afford their mortgages. Prices will fall in response.

    True or not it does seem to have a correlation. I don't hear many complaining about wealth inequality now. I do hear many complain about inequality between identity groups. It seems however, that the most extreme inequality is not betw
