The joke back in the '90s was: "We used to say that an infinite number of monkeys at an infinite number of typewriters would eventually come up with the complete works of Shakespeare, but now we have the Internet and know that's not so."

Apparently Apple does not allow 3D porn in these devices. Looks like a classic rerun of Sony Betamax vs JVC VHS format wars. Sony prohibited porn and JVC was not too strict and that tipped the balance. (Well, I did not check snopes, because I would rather live with this belief than knowing the truth)

The revolutionary new product from Apple iGrain is the recommended way to dry wet iPhones. It retails at 14.99$ a pound. Use of any other grain to dry wet phones voids the warranty. It has special sensors to detect non Apple approved grains being used to dry the phone.

Chrome should encrypt the save state and it can be decrypted only by chrome...

Who sold during the run up? If none it's a mistake. If some insider did, it's definitely a scam.

One can fill 100 ton railroad cars with sand/rock, move them up hill in summers and store them up in the plateau. Then roll them down in winter... Did some back of the envelope calc. It's not likely to beat batteries in cost. But energy storage for months possible

The author list is longer than the paper. Every last technician who touched a switch or tightened a bolt is credited.

Where do you hide a tree? In the forest, of course!

How do you hide your data? Create a forest to hide it!

Set up random boring channels like CSPAN. Or channels of polar opposite interest, like Classical music and wresting. And keep streaming them to the tv whenever you go out. With enough randomization, they will never know what you are really watching and what is shown to the empty room

(Two Questions: (Can I watch it in vi? (or vim?))

(Is there an emacs project to stream it to emacs))

So many people use the same password on multiple sites, including the big name site. So when a useless low value site gets compromised and its stupidly maintained username-password dictionary gets leaked, many accounts from big boys like Amazon, Google, Microsoft get compromised.
