they should as a matter of course. but I guess "papers" you entrust to someone else are a gray area. I personally think that it goes against the separation of police state and democracy, but I'm a nobody, so it doesn't m

Seems kind of like a no brainer given what we know about skin cancer, but I'm kind of surprised if you control for that if it had any other great "opportunity" to increase your lifespan when you control for obvious ones like

this could definitely open me back up to android. I got tired of my device becoming hacker friendly and went over to iphone after my perfectly useful android device was outside of feature/security updates. I didn't want to install

This is incorrect. Israel is at war with Hamas and they aren't holding back, and there is a large difference between what is going on and genocide. If Israel wanted to commit genocide then the entirety of Gaza would be leveled and 99%

In some cases (some spark plugs are what I can think of) explicitly tell you NOT to grease them, as that will let you over-torque them and potentially damage threads (aluminum heads, steel plugs). So using grease is not always the recommend

Did you torque every bolt every time before every flight?

by stjohnswarts 3y ago
Being a fat guy, I disregard that during flight other than takeoff, landing, and turbulence. I drive to work on most days, and the chance that I die that way is FAR, FAR higher than the few flights I take each year. I'll live with the

That isn't going to happen, they are too many out there and they have too much money invested. It would take FAA action (or European I suppose)

Didn't it look like Brazilian government was almost 100% gonna have it called off because of the "hit" to national reputation? (losing one of their largest and most internationally famous powerhouses)

Fixing known problems as you learn of them is maintenance is it not? That's just as important as changing out the lubricants and checking that the working parts are working.

Sounds like fascism to me. More like what N. Korea does, you'd think that S. Korea would be averse to adding more fascism to their lives rather than less.

Where does it stop next? Government telling us that we can't have our small piece of chocolate until we eat all our veggies and Mediterranean menu diet guide?

The adult sites will simply move offshore where the country trying to stop the flow of information doesn't have jurisdictions. It's whack-a-mole. The only solution is that parents control their kids, install nanny software, and te

It's up to parents to lock down their kids from tech they shouldn't be accessing, the rest of us shouldn't be harassed and inconvenienced for that. I hate to beat a dead horse, but it comes down to personal responsibility, &q

I hear it more than anything about Biden. I personally think that it's an easy way to be racist without being pinned down on it because of the out that he was also a President.

If they would have allowed alternate web engines and excluded google then google could have easily sued the crap out of them. As it stands they can viably say it's for OS integrity and security by forcing everyone to use the say "

did that with a showerhead, $80 on amazon, $30 on aliexpress, and it's actually quite well made (real metal) and seems to be great so far after a year. I'm sure there are a lot of duds though and it's caveat emptor, do at lea

It's a shame that something as basic as using a keyboard with a computing device can be copyrighted/patented. It's absolutely ridiculous.

The world is simply too complicated for that, there is no way you would get the maintainers of rust, npm, deno, haskell, etc to all agree to one "package system to rule them all".

Maybe something like this should put up big siren noises that it has so many dependencies. Can -anything- have that many dependencies? seems like a check they could build in and not let it go into the npm packages without a review.
