    Depends on where you live. 20k for a car where I live is very expensive. I honestly would not risk even a 5k car on this broken system, is it that hard to put a key in a hole?

    I'm guessing here aswell but I think the greatest minds are more captivated by solving the puzzles of the universe than poking and prodding the human mind which is much more tediou…

    From level 25 forward ( minus 26, spirals seem to be easy to simulate for my brain ) it's a fascinating example of how your subconscious bruteforces.. I managed to finish 25 and 27…

    I guess it's a good thing I have my laptop setup to use google's dns no matter what network i'm on.

    Thanks, I didn't know that. I myself don't know if I dislike pink because i associate it with weakness or not. Do you have any articles about toy function being socially conditione…

    Do you believe marketers have an agenda about indoctrinating girls to like pink? In the hopes that you are not a conspiracy theorist you must assume marketers haven't done any rese…

    T.D : Do you know what a hyperloop is? N : A sort of train that moves in vacuum T.D : It's just a very fast train. Now why do guys like you and me know what a hyperloop is? Is this…
