    This is what URIs were for. It's too bad we don't have nice things like book://9781250781253 or movie://le%20samourai or song:// or livesports://

    If it had a “good” square footage, it would be touted front and center. Because it’s not, you know it doesn’t. I see this all the time with motorcycle PPE. If something was CE A, A…

    Surely the dev wasn't able to merge that one-line code fix causing 6 weeks of testing without any other eyes on it and without someone else's PR-like approval...right?

    “Had acted in good faith” Seems like there’s no point in having the constitution if a violation of it has no effect.

    Idiomatically, it’s “WHAT something looks LIKE” or “HOW something looks.” It’s never, in EFL, “HOW…LIKE” Next up is “make” vs “take” a decision.

    Nonsense like this reminds me of the following quote from the 1999 Thomas Crown Affair movie: “Have you figured out what you're going to say to your board when they realize you pai…

    Would you be able to reseal the cracked glass and regenerate the vacuum through the other end? More glass, epoxy, or similar?

    I think the "keep it after 4 years" program is to eliminate a huge disposal/recycling cost from the schools. A 4 year old ChromeBook is effectively worthless, and can't (shouldn't)…

    Ferrari has historically worked with outside designers. Pininfarina being probably the most prominent. Bertone, as well. Ferrari brought design in-house relatively recently.

    What possible type of guarantee could one ever hope to "negotiate" with someone who has just successfully blackmailed/ransomed/extorted?

    I'm surprised 5-7 torpedo warheads detonating didn't do more damage to it. About 2750kg-4000kg of high explosive.
