So? Content is critical, everything is just plausible deniability. If you're concerned about someone knowing that you texted someone to the point where you're afraid even if they have no idea of the content of the message then get a burner phone.
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.

Yep, and then when you reload all of those tabs:
Never mind that 10 of them are paused youtube videos that I will have to locate and pause again
Suppose you had an unlimited energy source with negligible weight.
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.
You are MUCH more likely to dieor seriously injure someone while driving at high speed than in slow stop and go traffic
This doesn't invalidate your point, but most motorcycle deaths occur on 60 km/h roads
Were you told there would be no math? RTFS and DTFA.
FTFY
In America almost every family can afford cars. Not true in most Asian societies. (Yes there are exceptions, such as Singapore, hence I said most.)
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.
Despite Buddhisms many wrong notions (like reincarnation)
We do not know that, and neither do you. We live in a mystery in that regard. All we can do if we want to be truthful is admit we don't know what happens after death. We simply don't know. That's the truth
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
you are clinging to your notions the same way religious fundamentals cling to theirs
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.
Myanmar. 'Nuff said. Look it up. The Buddhist right wing clergy are being assholes.
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.
what causes my Win 7 to take 10 minutes to boot
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
We know the splitter changes it
I don't see how that's relevant. They're still measuring it.
