    So if I called my very bi gf to be at my work's stairwell for a nooner just before the lunch rush the day after we were in a tiny dark park in (a certain sleepy South Bay SF town)*…

    I don't know what @pg means by aggressive or passive. In what respects? Maybe I don't understand what passive or rules-oriented are like because I live in a VW that has disco bar l…

    (The link will not load for me, as of writing.) The US SAT I of the late-1990's was far too easy (I only missed one Q with a mis-selected answer, but I'm no genius and didn't study…

    Maybe. I was very depressed trying to earn a BS CSEE degree that took me 13 years (1997-2009). I started with severe depression, anxiety, and ADHD but didn't know it and went untre…

    Yes. Thanks. The xFi iOS app landing page was redirecting there. When logged-in with a Comcast account, it finds the customer's service area and relays information about outages. O…

    I'm trying to recall an incident (19th or 20th c.) where a mine or a factory hired strikebreaker snipers to climb into towers and shoot down into the strikers.

    Yep. It's down for me too. I thought it was censoring searches because it was working intermittently depending on keywords consistently, but it looks like it's just down. It's weir…

    The worst case is they could all merge into "Amwings" and those who choose to AGTOW would go bankrupt. I doubt it. Consolidation down to fewer major carriers per country would happ…

    For "several hours of maintenance." The folks at the back-of-the-card number, 855-378-6467, said "everything is down. you can't use your card and we can't look at your account." ??…
