Same here, also as a former bassoonist - each note on the bassoon has extremely unique timbre, and I find it very easy to identify them. No perfect pitch for other instruments.

Yes, probably that because Alaska and Hawaii were not admitted as states until 1959. Otherwise there would be Pearl Harbor counts as well.

They did add back non-cloud support a while ago after the cloud forcing didn't go over well, but it is a second-class experience. The day after I set my UDM Pro up as non-cloud, it corrupted the login somehow and I had to factory reset

You are saying that the "why" of Apple doing these things is purely "user hostility", which is highly implausible. A company does not make decisions based on a pure "will to be evil". They probably think that t

Coinbase can disable your withdrawal/sending ability at any time on a whim. Their support is email-only and has a backlog of months. Try taking a look at /r/coinbase for examples. There are some very good reasons to put your

I host my own email, and I got nothing but huge amounts of spam from .xyz domains, so I manually increased the SpamAssassin score for just .xyz to +4.0, as KAM was only adding 0.75 for it. It's the only TLD I've had to do that for

I use this scheme (company@mydomain.com) and one that I remember blocking for this reason is Aliexpress/Alibaba - aliexpress@mydomain.com was rejected so I use ali@mydomain.com. No idea what sort of security this is supposed to provide

I host my own email server, and .xyz is one of the 2 or 3 TLDs I went in the config files and manually blocked since nothing but spam comes from it (and lots of it). Definitely would not recommend using it for your personal address.

A quick look at the Bragi Dash Kickstarter shows it was started in February 2014 and had raised nearly $3.4MM by March 31, 2014. It looks like it finally shipped in early 2016 (original promise late 2014).

Won't each college having to have their own test lead to many/most colleges, especially smaller ones, finding it easier or more cost effective to purchase their test from a central source, leading to some large College Board-like

I verified that the tweets are real. I checked out the usernames and all of those with locations easily findable (half of them) were in Chicago (where CAH is based) - so it is certainly plausible they only aired in Chicago.

I bought my smart thermostat (Ecobee) for a couple reasons - 1. Economic - it easily paid for itself in one summer by not running the A/C when no one is home. I have geofencing set up to do this automatically. 2. Comfort - my office&#x

The article expects you to know that $125/hr is way below the normal rate for a criminal defense attorney in a major city, which I would expect to start at about $300/hr.

Why are Americans afraid of giving out their bank account numbers? The only thing you can do with an IBAN is send money to it, and that's hardly malicious. In the US you only need a name and bank account number (and to know which ban

IIRC Norway has a 200% tax on petroleum-powered vehicles (despite being a huge producer), so this is not terribly surprising. This makes a Tesla more in the price range of a small- or mid-sized BMW, and I suppose the Leaf would be extremely

Linux sysadmin here - although I use vi for almost everything on the terminal, I still consider Notepad++ a "killer app" for Windows. It perplexes me that in all this time I have not been able to find anything comparable for Linux

It is also extremely easy for your acquaintances (or even patient thieves) to learn your PIN, unless you unlock in a weird, secretive way that is sure to cause teasing or funny looks. In this way Touch ID is a far far superior defense again

IIRC, the article only mentioned the "dumbed down" version now in casinos being beaten by pros. The earlier part of the article (when it was full strength and in testing) has no mention of it being beaten.
