My favorite "feature" of Chrome is the way it invites people to look through your browsing history every time they open a new tab, and there's no way to disable it. There used to be a way to disable it, but they removed it

Almost nothing you said is correct aside from your basic description of the procedure. Weight loss is rarely the primary goal of FMT and its efficacy in that realm remains unproven. Nowhere did the article imply that any of the things that

That title is mildly infuriating. Using the term "bomb" to refer to software when actual bomb threats have been made is the epitome of clickbait.

I stopped updating all my Google apps ~2 years ago because there were so many asinine, unintuitive UI changes with each new version. A lot of their changes didn't even conform to the standards recommended by Google (e.g. menu button lo

The guy never threatened to target children or reveal any information about them. Why is that so difficult for you to grasp?

Not to mention the fact that Asparagirl has intentionally interpreted his comments in the most sensational way possible, even going so far as to fabricate threats. "Look into your personal lives, your families" somehow magically b

> "your families" = "your children" I don't think that's a reasonable assumption to make. "Your family" could just as easily be referring to adult family members only (spouses, siblings, parents, e

Glad I'm not the only one who found this post surprisingly petty and immature. Not to mention egotistical -- seriously, had anyone heard of this until just now?

You should try reading the article next time -- this post has absolutely nothing to do with suicide rates. I guess your response is somewhat appropriate though. Like the company he worked for, you didn't even stop for a second to think

It's surprisingly cheap/easy to put the whole thing together with things from Amazon and IKEA. For example: 4x Olov 36" legs [1] = $60 1x Linnmon 47" x 24" table top [2] = $20 whatever small shelf will

Yes -- a tall desk and a tall chair to match it. Then you should have no need to adjust either unless you somehow become wheelchair-bound by an injury. It also gives you the option of leaning halfway on/halfway off the stool with one f

Cool, but why not buy a tall stool or drafting chair that matches the height of the desk instead of figuring out all these convoluted ways to lower the entire desk? The whole idea is to sit less, so it shouldn't matter very much how co

Neil Postman's book Amusing Ourselves to Death is a great continuation of this topic. I only wish they were still around to see how right they were.

A mortgage can be an extremely good investment, and a 0% car loan is essentially free money if you were going to buy the car anyway. My point is that there's no one-size-fits-all financial advice, and trying to promote the hip, rebelli
