Now THAT is how you summarize.

By manually numbering each item of <ul> instead of simply using <ol>?

That is, sort of, an argument for TCP. But UDP is often preferred nonetheless... And increasingly so even for the traditionally TCP-applications, such as file-transfers.

You do realise antennae are usually designed to have a main beam with minimised side lobes? Or, did you not take an antenna theory class, or even read a book on them, and are simply spouting off about something of which you know nothing?

I've also heard that it ain't the kind of place to raise the kids. In fact, it's cold as hell.

Also, there is this tiny little fact that there are religions other than Christianity. For some, discovering alien life would actually validate some of their beliefs.

Much as hate to appear victim-blaming, even an utter polyanna-style naïvette would've ended at $3,000. Beyond that, it is stupidity.

"He" (and am not at all sure, there is an identifiable "he" to this scam — more likely a work of an enterprise) is a crook and should be hung alive by his rib on a rusty hook. But, boy, the lady is stupid...

What we have is a mystery.

Outside of a conversational AI, I don't want my software to work differently depending on what mood it thinks I'm in. For every app that would actually benefit from this I foresee a hundred 'Clippy's.

'Hey—did you know you're angry? Here's some cute kittens that are sure to cheer you up!'
