Metadata can absolutely tell a story, we learned that from Edward Snowden. Consider the following:
Girl takes 5 minute call from fertility clinic.
Girl makes one hour call to mother.
Girl makes 10 minute call to boyfriend.
Girl does not accept any more calls from boyfriend.
Sure there's missing details, but it paints a picture.

We had this cheap logitech RAID card that had no fan on it's processor. Multiple disks failed and the thing repeatedly overheated trying to rebuild the array. I was able to cool the chip by using expanding gas from several cans of air (for blowing away dust) and eventually completed the array rebuild.

The real problem is Insulin Resistance, not the calories. AFAIK all artificial sweeteters contribute to IR because taste receptors in the gut are still detecting sugar and provoking an insulin response, calories or not. Why would this be any different?

Isn't that less than one user?

Never mind that 10 of them are paused youtube videos that I will have to locate and pause again

Pratt and Whitney's impressive trimodal nuclear rocket seems relevant (sorry about the weird links, this engine has largely disappeared from the internet). Some of the ideas and materials in this design would not doubt be applicable to a rocket belt regardless of the nuclear capability.

This doesn't invalidate your point, but most motorcycle deaths occur on 60 km/h roads

I don't know how many people in Singapore can actually afford a car but I can tell you that the certificate required to own a car costs $93k for 10 years and the cost of the car can be as much as triple that of a "Western" nation. A lot of people catch cabs.

There's lots of evidence that thinking and consciousness require a functioning brain, therefore it is reasonable to believe that you cease to exist if your brain decomposes. At this point, if you want to believe in an afterlife, you need to propose a mechanism for transmigration. The wikipedia page on Bardo says "The intermediate being ...existence is demonstrated by the fact that it cannot have any discontinuity in time and space between the place and moment of death and those of rebirth, and therefore it must be that the two existences belonging to the same series are linked in time and space by an intermediate stage." Which doesn't even constitute evidence let alone proof.

You're making wild assumptions about my convictions. I was open to the idea of reincarnation for many years, now once again I'm open to the idea that our universe is statistically likely to be a simulation, therefore an afterlife is possible. It's just that there's only worthless evidence for an afterlife and strong evidence against it.

That's disingenuous. Those assholes are dressing up as monks for fun and for profit, not "in the name of Buddhism" (even if that's what they say), and despite the great incentives in that country for assholes to dress up as monks, many of those monks are genuine Buddhists.

Despite Buddhisms many wrong notions (like reincarnation), meditation is immensely powerful. It's like martial arts for your brain. It significantly improves concentration, focus and clarity as well as being a tool that can readily create happiness. Buddhism has done so much to improve peoples lives that assholes in Burma and Thailand don't make it bad.

Holy fuck. I've seen servers with extensive startup scripts but no desktop should take that long. My windows 8 gets from power button to password in in 6 seconds, it's usable immediately. I could boot and shut down over 50 times while you boot up once!

You need to analyze all the running processes and then uninstall them. All of them. Except the virus scanner (you haven't got 2 virus scanners doing realtime have you?). You also don't have enough RAM

I don't see how that's relevant. They're still measuring it.
