an increase in amateur rocketry and ordinance design...

Came for the garbage comments -- wasn't disappointed. Wouldn't do again, too nauseating...

welcome our new Stanford overlords...

And anyone who says other-wise should have their head blown off, their body smashed and gouged and their family burned alive!!!! ps I only play Candy Crush....

Rambles more like Joyce than Orwell...

"'race' is little more than an artificial construct..." Correct! Among modern humans it is a construct. But I do think the Neanderthals were a TRUE human race: - we interbred "in the wild" (so they weren't a completely different species) - they are statistically distinguishable on an individual basis from modern populations, based on a suite of skeletal measures They have all the hallmarks of a different human race.

Did any male reviewers pan it? And if so, what was their threat load? As high? Higher? I wonder...(I'm going to reveal myself and say...I'd guess LOWER...but who knows, maybe Aq-man has a real die-hard following...)

"My dick has over 17 years on it." "I've been single for 7 years and I couldn't be happier." You've been single since you were 10? Maybe you're marking dick-time differently, I don't know. Just a guess. Sounds more like you have mommy issues...

I gotta say, the first 10^10 years of the universe passed by in blink. Things didn't really slow down until I showed up. I'm guessing I could do the full 10^139 standing on my head, if I were dead. The real question is, after those 10^139 years and then another 10^10, am I going to show up again?

I don't recall her writing about you...

The original HDMI standard didn't include a way to transport Closed Captioning. For example, a DVD with CC played over a composite connection will show the subtitles of the CC if the TV handles CC. If you play that same DVD over HDMI...no CC, even if the TV can handle it. The CC is lost when it's sent over HDMI. I don't know the numbers but there are a significant number of deaf/hard of hearing people in the US. And they don't get CC from a DVD using HDMI. I can't tell but it doesn't appear the new HDMI included it either. Note: CC are NOT the same as the DVD subtitles. Those are overlayed on the video image by the DVD player and transported with the video signal. CC are different, not overlayed by the DVD player but by the TV, merging the video signal and the CC signal (which HDMI doesn't transport).

I don't a cell phone or smart phone. Just a land line at home and in my office (at work). And I'm a software developer. Just ask anyone (except my boss).

"Call me crazy, but women interest me more than most other things on the internet and there is a huge amount of data being created daily, so it was a good fit for the project."

How sad he thinks porn is data about women...

I live in OR. I ride to work EVERY day, rain or shine. I paid a little over $600 for my bike to the store and that's it, no license, no registration or insurance, etc. $15? 2.5% tax that will go towards supporting biking infrastructure? Yeah, I don't have a problem with that.

We use a M$ system here at work -- some of the funniest writing I've ever read was a simple, serious phone message "transcribed" by their software. I'd say, "I welcome our new M$ AI overlords" but it's better to read their transcription. "I will come are knew micro soft overloads"
