"The most reliable ways to avoid transmission of STDs are to abstain from sexual activity, or to be in a long-term mutually monogamous relationship with an uninfected partner" Soun…

Getting laid is important though too...

Moralizing aside, which ones specifically can infect you even if you wear a condom?

Not a bad idea actually-- alot of work though to do it accurately :/

Is it possible to buy a "disconnected" car these days? People for decades survived loads of daily driving without snooping from manufacturers call centers.

I'm not sure what you are getting at here. The lawyer's job is not to judge the quality of a patent -- in the same way a defense lawyer is not there to judge the innocence of their…

Good old BSD. Keeps putting out ;)

This is incredibly incorrect. If you are going to bore Hacker News with pedantry-- at least bother to look up that the "modern" era ended somewhere around 1945. So yes, it refers t…

Right that's a good point.

Now...1984 REALLY begins...

Really? Which ones? Even if I get an e-visa, I get an in and out stamp. Not having these would invalidate the whole reason for having a passport.

Almost everything uses RTGs now if it's going to be far from the sun (like past mars).

Ah yes -- the Mother Of All Demos. Impressive!

Not sure I agree. While about USB3 and even USBC it might be true, but I have a MacBook Pro 2011 (2.4Ghz Core i5), that I put a 256Gb SSD in and upgraded to 8GB of RAM. It is certa…

Fairlight is great-- DX7 though was really the sound of the 80s...

[flagged]

Its about incentives though.

Im not sure this is much of a surprise-- as shocking as it may seem to Americans -- iMessages is not widely used outside of North America. So Apple is just trying to bridge the tec…

While I empathize with your situation-- be careful not to discourage others. The only two fully completed novellas were because of this month and I'm very proud of them. I'm much m…

These are major violations of not just labour codes but also just in general ethical standards. So if Shotwell accepts to follow the pressure from Elon, they are just as complicit …

So even though there would be incredible benefits -- we just should not try according to this position. I mean hasn't every great engineering achievement in human history basically…
