It's a quote from the comedy movie "Blades of Glory"
I think the issue is that color blindness is typically the result of a physical abnormality with the rods/cones in the retina. Your claim is essentially akin to saying a black-and-white printer could somehow print in…
There is something to be said about this particular style of argument, as it's akin to the "paradox of tolerance". Ultimately I think the most fair thing is to let both sides attempt to build support until a clear…
I'm not saying that Firefox on Android has significant market share; rather that Android has significant market share, and those users could be served by switching to Firefox solely for the purpose of using an…
You'd be required to jump through the hoops to get your custom firmware approved by the necessary regulatory bodies, just as Tesla did for theirs. It's not really feasible for a private owner, so I can see why it's not…
I live in a not-so-great area of town. There were two murders in the last 6 months. One in my neighborhood, and the other in an adjacent public park. The always-on lighting is a deterrent to anyone trying to hide from…
The lights are indeed outdoor, and cover most of my backyard. It's a neighborhood within a major metropolitan area, but the light doesn't bleed beyond my property lines. As for the "why", the answer is security. If…
I have a pair of PAR38 LED bulbs from Cree Lighting (2100 lumens) that are rated for 25,000 hours. They're in a flood-light mounted under the eaves of my house. I never got around to putting them on a dusk-to-dawn…
As the saying goes, "past performance is not indicative of future results"
If we consider that roughly 73.6% of Americans are overweight[0], perhaps there would be some benefit if substantially more people started taking GLP-1 medications. [0]:…
Not all supporters of a given political party agree on everything. They may simply align with the party on the topics that are most important to them, even if they disagree with other topics that are lower on their…
Not to mention that these "phone books" also included everyone's address, and married couples were usually listed together.
What would be the benefit of using SFP+ on mainstream consumer motherboards? It would further increase the effective price to consumers as they'd have to purchase a separate transceiver, which are bulkier and might…
I'm having a hard time reading this as a reasonable suggestion, so I apologize in advance if I'm being closed-minded. Do you not believe that this would lead to further bad outcomes? Children need something to do during…
All the browsers on my machine report my resolution as 1080p despite using 4k. I assume this is because I run at 200% scaling (I believe this is relatively common among anyone using a 4k resolution) If the above-linked…
There is a level of trust involved as unless you pull down the code, audit it and only ever run it locally, you really have no way of knowing that on any given page load the code hasn't changed. While I also appreciate…
I think you're referring to a similarly named N64 game. This story is about a game played using the seeds of horse chestnut trees. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conkers
The widespread adoption of Chrome was largely driven by word of mouth, people like you and I installing it on our friend's/relative's computers and telling them it was safer/faster/better. Nothing stops us from doing…

If you were standing on top of Mt. Elbrus (elevation: 5.6km above sea level), you could see the horizon roughly 271km away (assuming the horizon was at sea-level, there were no obstructions, atmospheric or otherwise,…
Due to the curvature of the earth, it's unlikely you were able to see anything 300km away. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_distance_observations#Gro...
I wonder what the efficiency losses become in this configuration; using the grid to charge a battery to charge a vehicle. A quick google query says that efficiency of L2 residential EV chargers is somewhere in the…
