The way that this is done these days (and likely what the author did/does) is that you use a custom domain to receive mail; you provide an email like service@custom.com, and that w…

Yes and no. If congress has granted the EPA authority to regulate water to ensure it's not bad for you, then someone needs to determine what "bad for you" means. Previously, under …

What you'd want is Architecture Unit Tests; you can define in code the metastructures and relationships, and then cause the build to fail if the relationship is violated. The class…

We are presently in the futures past That is to say, it's entirely possible that you were already tortured and the backdoor is already there by using the same logic - no time machi…

The barriers start at the beginning - you just have to reverse and then you can drive over mountains and under water to your hearts content :)

I read this book many years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it - in my opinion the movie did a good job as well, however I've found it increasingly difficult to find via online services…

That's if you even got a pin in the first place! I discovered this recently when I wanted to use the gloriously named AusweisApp2 (ID app 2, superseding a PC app which was at least…

They're considered fillers that mark a continuance on part of the speaker so that the other participants know that they will continue speaking. Different languages not only use dif…

I'm in a similar boat - I pretty much use the watch for HR tracking (as a proxy for stress), but otherwise keep things like the notifications disabled. This gets me about 20 days b…

Even more cromulently: In Dennis v. United States the government jailed the leaders of the american communist party, and the supreme court upheld the conviction. And if it's said t…

Here's a taste - the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (often referred to as the FISA court) authorizes security agencies to spy on US citizens. The court proce…

Huh. I was looking for some more information (about either the developer or maybe whatever CAD engine was being used), and it seems that there is another block based CAD editor wit…

It's even easier than that - Cohen already pled guilty and was convicted for this campaign finance violation. During the trial Cohen explicitly named Trump as a co-conspirator whil…

There is an accompanying podcast which went into the decisions behind the series, such as the character design and which events to show and how they were dramatised. The original p…

If you're curious, ProtonDB is the place to check if the game you're interested in is supported (and how well). You can also just browse and see what is supported. Here is the list…

Huh, seemed pretty effective at first glance. It also lead me down a wiki rabbit hole from the dogger bank to similar nearby features, which came full circle with the Cleaver Bank …

Do you mean for content in German? There might just not be enough of it to be anything but low-effort junk - I never got anything useful in German and gave up after about 20 minute…

To maybe throw the question back - what have you done to make 3 day weekends a reality? The way the post is worded right now seems to be phrased in a way that 3-day weekends are bl…

What you're describing is actually the artefact of a popular method of organising information in articles called the inverted pyramid[1]. Essentially what happens is the chronologi…

It will be harder to dispel because the underlying general assumption actually is true - in most people the brain does split some functions by hemisphere, but rather it's not a gen…

The hex codes cannot be selected/copied out which was disappointing, but perhaps worse is that the hex codes slowly fade away completely! I only noticed the first time because ther…

> highways that made it harder to reach different parts of the city One blatant example of exclusionary infrastructure was Robert Moses building bridges in New York that were too l…

Just want to say thank you for the unlimited delimiters - this was something that always limited my usage of cut so just this feature alone makes tuc worth it

The very first sentence does the american-right-wing trope of conflating communism and socialism, which makes the article already suspect: > The Victims of Communism Museum could p…
