When reading about this proposal the only thing that can justify it is scamming investors out of their money. First of all this internet-packet-routing-like way of transporting goods would work only if almost every town in America had rail

This decision is incredibly coherent with the fact that tracking can be done in many ways other than with cookies. Your residential IP doesn't change that much and Google keeps track of it. Google can track your navigation through webs

Sorry, what farmer has the ability to repair a design problem in an engine? In reality the vast majority of fixes are just temporary patches using materials that quickly degrade and need to be constantly replaced.

I might be mistaken, but at least in Europe (but I believe it's the same case for the US) reverse engineering proprietary software in order to fix critical bugs, add necessary features or port it somewhere else out of necessity is allo

Could you please explain to me the logical link between the scientific evidence that alchol is harmful in any quantity and the concepts of "having fun" and being a "slave to society"? Let's also overlook your dogwhi

Sorry, mine wasn't a plain boomer rant, there are plenty of "real" books I would never let my child read. Most classics are very mature and talk very vividly about violence, death, sex and atrocities. Children should be expos

If you don't want your children to be molested via the internet don't give your children access to the internet, end of story. You'd never let your 10yo child hang out at the skater park because the moment you are not there

How about we replace these shitty, indecent, saddening middle-low tier restaurants with canteens? I go to a restaurant to feel served and cared after, if you can't provide that feeling of welcomeness you should downgrade all the way an

I know, but with the technology we are able to employ nowadays I think it's reasonable to push for vaccines that protect people for 20 years like the one for hepatitis. Hell, now we can even think about curing cancer with mRNA, I think

you are protected from infection only if you have a huge number of antibodies since they can immediately overpower the virus when it gets in. when the antibodies are few and the virus comes in you have to wait for the trained t-cells to pro

You got me there on that technicality, but since I already defined at the beginning of my post that being a pedohpile is only about arousal I think it was clear that the last sentence referred to pedophiles who actually enact on their desir

Compiling your own software is a really humbling experience. When it takes way more time to compile a browser than a full fledged OS or you find out that seemingly simple programs need to pull a mind boggling amount of dependencies you real

The laws of thermodynamics, for example, just like all the laws of physics, are just consistencies we have observed not breaking after decades of trying every corner case we can conjure up. They are quite literally the definition of inducti

But this is a very hypochritical way of living in my opinion. Let's take YouTube as an example: I am not addicted to YouTube; I use it sparingly, without an account, with an extension that blocks related videos and by flushing the cook

Why do you need oil if you have electicity for dirt cheap? Expand the power lines and push for electic motors everywhere. Also I'm pretty sure running current through a big transistor dissipates plenty of heat, I mean, you know about e

I can discreetly share text, images or videos with a subset of my contacts all at once without bothering them in a private conversation. They all appear in order and in full without some algorithmic trickery, they get flushed after a day or
