If you walk up to a couple and start professing love to someone a guy is with, how can you not expect violence?

I don't even know where to start about how wrong you argument is. It pretty sure that even the Talibans would not approve of such a absurdly toxic masculinity. Is you ego so fragile that you cannot imagine any other reaction to someone being the infatuated to your partner than savage violence?

Do you expect your penis to shrink, or downright fall if you don't jerk up like a crocodile?

And did you even consider that it is strictly not your business to answer at all? The guy is talking with your partner, not you. She has the responsibility to answer, if she wish, and may ask for your support.

There is a very strong correlation between being a relative or a neighbor of an antivax and suffering serious vaccine side effects, or having the vaccine not provide effective protection

Most people never update the OS, and only update their hardware when the OS is obsolete (i.e. does not run a sufficiently recent version of Chrome to correctly display their bank website).

I guess some spicy letters from partner hardware manufacturers may have played a role

Skype for Linux has been filling my home directory with log files for years and nobody at MS seems to have even noticed. It is safe to assume that it is the MS way, and set up a cron job to delete them regularly

Next time he'll say that the car wasn't even a Tesla or that the passagers are not really dead, they just moved to a passenger farm upstate.

No way that a plane ticket between two European capitals cost 20â, they are mostly in the 150-250â, economy. You can find some Ryanair special offers at 20â, but only a few seats per plane, airport tax excluded, with no luggage (not even cabin luggage) and to airports that can be a hundred of km away from the claimed destination (like Bauvais for Paris, which is a 90 minutes coach ride away, no train connection)

The article claim that these tires can provide comparable traction with pneumatic ones. But bike tires are never been about traction: road tire are slick, off-road tires, which require traction, have knobs.

What matters, on the other hand, is rolling resistance (i.e. the amount of energy one tire dissipates during its deformation), shock adsorption (which is related to rolling resistance) and weight.

A tire made of wire mesh is typically poor in three parameters

Editor David says Today much of the world honors an annual tradition: setting their clocks backwards by one hour

Which is only accurate, if you conflate "much of the world" with USA. As the only other territory where DST exists, Europe, does not change time today, but in two weeks.

P.S. personally I like DST, because it is fun to stir up life routines from time to time

Before, one could effectively and accurately get the year of production of any mac devic fro mits serial number. Very useful if you have to order a third party replacement part.

With the new scheme, only Apple will be able to do it. As mac devices pretty much all look the same apart from minuscule details, third party shops will be forced to ask customers to try to remember exactly in which month they bought said device, or look if they kept the receipt somewhere.

Wtf

The CEO of Signal has worked as security chief of Twitter in the past. Saying that Signal is owned by Twitter is like saying that Tesla is owned by PayPal

They'll do the same they just did for the mobile version: 6 months of announcements, then they move the address bar to the bottom and drop support for all extensions but 7. Memory and cpu hunger stay the same

My mother in law is obsessed with printing from her smartphone. I don't know what the hell she prints, probably nothing. Whatever, years ago Google had force-installed this nonsensical cloud print app on her phone, and I had thought how to use it. Now I had to teach again the Hp printing app, which is even worst.

There is more to general relativity than explaining the precession of mercury orbitals. Finding a mathematical model that explains just that is not going to be a serious challenge to the general theory of relativity. It should also be compatible with all measurements we have so far that involve relativistic effects: from the time shift of GPS satellites down to the emission line of heavy elements and up to gravitational waves and images of black holes.

Exactly the same, because the fine depends on the size of the fraud, not the nationality of the fraudster. Quickly skimming the website of the AGCM, I can see a fine of 27M€ to a recycling company for abusing dominant position, of 5M€ to the Italian postal service for delays, one of 600k€ to a German supermarket chain for misleading information about the origin of durum wheat used in pasta, another of 30M€ to private security firms for price fixing...

A 10M€ fine is far from exceptional and is not reserved to USA multinational corporation. It is dictated by the European tradition of protecting customers, despite what typical USA arrogance may lead you to believe
