Good help those of us with bad knees. This is the devil's invention.

That might be true for small caliber rounds, but a 9 mm +P would go through easily enough. Just aim for the spot where the spine enters the skull. Quick and efficient, only downside is the need for a closed-casket funeral. The Soviets used this method of execution with great success, did they not?

What’s wrong with a bullet to the back of the head? That's about as instantaneous as it gets.

Yes, but I thought they were supposed to be less risky. Or am I asking for too much?

There is a fallacy in this polemic.

Good on Opera! I've been wondering why this hasn't been done before. It just seems so obvious.

I stink, therefore I am.

Keep your suitcases closed and use a zip tie to close the zippers. It won’t stop anyone from cutting through, but it’ll be immediately obvious to you when you return.

I use the pocket-sized Moleskine reporter’s notebook a lot. Fits perfectly in my jacket pocket and I carry one in my field bag as well. I only wish all the pages were perforated and not just a few in the back.

UAC needs a mode where it forces ALL executables to start in offline mode and then queries the user as to whether to allow the program to access the network of not. That makes more sense since most apps don’t need to be exposed to the Internet from the git-go.

I never had any problems with it till Windows 10, which absolutely refused to recognize it for the longest time. I can't tell you how many times I uninstalled and reinstalled it (even used Revo Uninstaller to make sure all traces of it were gone) and on each reinstallation Win 10 claimed it was "unavailable". It…

Actually, the problem is that the Pentagon is getting its rocks off on ever more expensive weapons systems of dubious utility. Lessee... if we canceled the 1.3 trillion dollar F-35, how many smart bombs/small arms/bullets would that money buy us?

Like the latest version of Google Chrome, you mean?

Great info! It just so happens I’m in the market for a new laptop to replace my eight-year-old Toshiba Satellite which went tango uniform last week. I can limp along with my phone and tablet for a couple of months. That specific Lenovo model in the chart is one I've had my eyes on.

UAC needs better granularity, though. Some way to flag apps and programs ‘safe” and make them read-only so that compromising them becomes more difficult. I get so sick and tired of that "Are you sure you want to run this program that you've run 10,001 times before?" dialog. It interrupts my work flow to the point…

First to use the callsign? That thing didn’t even carry a radio!

Until you drop a box of paper clips into that fancy treadmill connected to your standing design heh heh.

The upgrade was a nightmare for me too.

Once when I was getting a shot in my knee the doctor made a big thing about readying the cold numbing spray... And then he forgot to use it!! Just stuck the needle straight into the inflamed tendon. I don’t normally make a sound during injections, but in this case I made an exception. He said later he was impressed by…

To have a vision of a space program requires a candidate who can see further than next Tuesday. Unfortunately for all their talk, none of the present candidates qualify.
