It's possible to 'dock' a phone with a keyboard, monitor, and mouse. I'm not sure many easily support that setup though.

As I allowed in my comment, it may be acceptable as part of a military operation. However, the Constitution does not grant Congress or the Courts to spy, or to hire spies, or direct spies, or have anything to do with spies.

I never claimed as such. You may wish to read my comment, the Constitution, then my comment again.

The CIA seems surprised to hear lots of things, but I believe the NSA is a military operation.

Governments are a function of their laws. I'm not sure what you mean by, 'are allowed and expected to keep secrets from each other'. I don't actually allow or expect my government to keep secrets. I don't think &#x2

Is that all that's being transported? Communication? Those bags seem to be holding more than just text. I'm not sure the government is actually authorized to spy, per the US Constitution. It seems that it (spying) would only be au

Is it possible to earn enough in an acceptable career to then later pursue what one would like to?

All government communications are subject to inspection and should be disclosed as soon as possible. Why does the State Department need to take such extreme measures and have special exemption from processes meant to detect and stop all man

Doesn't SciHub source its articles from journals though?

Could be, maybe; but, it's definitely been a sought and taught objective as well.

I think this is a symptom of a drive towards "messaging", "narratives", and "stories" over logical analysis of verifiable facts in (allegedly) persuasive writing. I wouldn't doubt that some behavioral modi

Maybe the "smartphone" format is played out for now. New innovation may need to come from a new or emerging industry. Following price and size trends, the next industry would be making a device ~1/50th the size of a "sma

So does the paper. The paper also says this, right before explaining that it's a component of the ~4e-15 number, though: >A conservative estimate of the height difference between clock and experiment contributes a gravitational red

>Offering the chance to shill for part of your shift, and offering this only to an elite who're able to do it effectively, is a really clever social exploit. Will it continue to be allowed? Maybe. It's very much the kind of thi

I'm not sure, but from this context, it would seem that possibly, if "vexing" is also in the domain of others as well (seems so). >Begone, you. Not very welcoming around here?

I don't get why you think comments that generate conversation are "unsubstantive".

If you search the Authorized King James Version of the Bible you will find this[0] passage: >And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter

Many people think marriage ceremonies are magical, I think.

It's routinely used in some magical contexts. Vexing things are mysterious, which is often an object of magical displays.

Anything can come before scientific knowledge.

by windows_tips 8y ago
In what way are they not? Magical language can be in very wide use. I think one of the top grossing authors has written an entire series about magic.

I never said I was opposed. Both "ritual" and "vexing" are magical language.

Why is this scientific publication using such magical language?

So no one contacted you again after you stopped paying? It seems like one of the mortgage owners probably removed the lien when they sold the mortgage and the buyer never put their own lien on.

An ethical breach by a lawyer is grounds for banishment from the profession. An ethical breach by a title insurance company likely violates its bylaws, and at the very least opens them up to liability. It seems like this is a title error so

Is Excel open source? Sure, I could maybe write some VBA scripts to help Excel do something better (and have) or put in some feature requests in their issue tracker (is there a public one?), but I really don't get the attitude that &qu
