The big bang theory isn't just "accepted by them today," it has been since the beginning. The father of the big bang theory was a catholic priest.
Thank you for sharing this one! It's from a beautiful parable found only in Luke's gospel, from which only "no slave can serve two masters" seems to have entered the popular lexicon. Your quote, or the closing line "you…
Your attitude is exactly what the parent comment is describing. You have the benefit of decades of scientific research and government mandates that didn't exist for previous generations. Modern cigarettes date to the…
The two brands that could have a claim to producing "the model that everyone says are the best" are Bose and Sony. For Bose, the QuietComfort Ultra are the top of the line, but the cheaper/older QuietComfort 45 and 35…
I haven't used ledger-cli much; I ruled it out pretty quickly when I was testing PTA software. For me, I loved the reporting and hledger-add for entering transactions manually. As I learned to automate my input, I…
Reading the LWN post about why they chose GnuCash was a great reminder to me of why I chose beancount--all the other financial solutions out there did about 80-90% of what I wanted, but never 100%, and no way to get…
If you're a paid iCloud user or an MS365 user, both have ways to use a custom domain and tap into the storage you're already paying for at no extra cost. MS365 locks you in to GoDaddy as a registrar and I'm on…
I really tried to like Signal and convince my family to use it, but the lack of iOS backups, CarPlay support, and web client were dealbreakers for me. I'm no Meta fan but I've found WhatsApp to be the best mix of secure…
I'm in finished vehicle logistics, and I've worked directly with a wide variety of truckers, including three years in California. You are very right that the amount of cargo that needs to be moved will not change…
I use nano because I don't have to remember anything to use it. If you put me in front of nano I can open a config file, go to the line I need, edit in something, save it, and exit without knowing a single thing about…
No it's not. If you talk about the world's oldest woman, no one expects you to include Cleopatra in the running.
This isn't true in the vast majority of states. Private sales, regardless of if they're at a gun show or a parking lot, only require a background check in six states (and three of those don't require a background check…
That's not true--this article is about airline fees, not government fees, and AA counts airline fees when they calculate EQD's. From AA.com: "EQDs are awarded based on ticket price (includes base fare plus…
That is 100% not the message.
If you care about light why not work outside in the sun and not use electricity and lightbulbs unless there's an eclipse? I can't even tell if you're serious. Trying to improve on nature is the foundation of science.
None of this is about the rules, it's about the people who run Reddit minimizing the impact of speech they disagree with.
My own experience is just the opposite--I've never had a problem with Uber but have had plenty of problems with taxis. Just yesterday coming home from the airport the taxi driver got off the highway in the wrong…
It's explained in the interview, but since you missed it: "And I am applying the Dirri (Do I Reread It?) Test"
Sabayon is based on Gentoo, should be in the Other Distro's section.
I commute to work by bike in Philadelphia, and not just in the good weather. In the last year I've missed three days--once the day after I cracked a rib going down in snow and twice when I woke up to a flat tire and…
As someone else who worked in customer service, this is very true. There is a lot of stuff we're not allowed to offer, but if you specifically ask for it we can give it to you. So please, ask questions, and be polite.…
Doug was on Louie this season and did an amazing job. He seems to be a comedian's comedian--his name comes up in interviews all the time when comedians are asked who's their favorite among their peers.
Why do people think a spreadsheet is less likely to rip them off than a person? I mean, sure, if you want to, feel free to walk into a car dealership and pay sticker price. Go to the mall and buy that hardcover book at…
Worked fine for me. Tested with that same PDF, and with a random JPG, both with gdocs as the target. This extension will be absolutely awesome on my CR-48.
Why do you think a brilliant European should be allowed to work in America but not a brilliant African? Or did you simply mean that rich, educated people should be given international mobility while poor, uneducated…
