   Of course the market dropped skype ever since Microsoft took over. </snark> Seriously, I've been a remote worker for 8 years. Skype quality went down so much when MS took over. For the past 3 years, Slack and Zoom have liter

   Scuba diving takes training, it's not like breathing normal air. Add the possibility for claustrophobia and darkness fear. There is a very high possibility for irrational behavior.

   This is an important thing to bring up but from a different perspective. Most millennials didn't want either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump in the last election. That lack of choice should not be blamed on a generation when the Clinto

    Last I checked, ZeroNet didn't allow user-upload to somewhere else in a way that supports gigabytes. Text-snippits and gifs...sure.

    I like the idea of beaker but I want to store user data at a non-local user-specified endpoint. A gallery app is a perfect example. You want access to lots of data but you can't store it all locally in all locations that you want acces

    It's all about culture. If you were influenced by a high-church growing up, you're more likely appreciate hymns. People that converted without a high-church context gravitate toward a more modern style of worship. The downside of

    Yes, but mid-pack among alternate layouts. Qwerty doesn't even show up. The difference between them is minimal compared with sticking with qwerty. Other factors to consider would be time-to-learn, hot-key placement, device compatibili
