Sorry, but I found the part about throwing the coins in a tray bit funny. You were annoyed when visiting Europe, but in the states it's ok because you can throw the coins in the car?

That sounds like it would be painful to fix...

I actually went to the doc about it like a year ago and she said the same thing. Told me to go get some eye drops to keep the eye hydrated so to speak. Tried that for a couple of weeks and didn't really notice much of a difference.

Now make one that stops my left eye from constantly tearing up. It's really, really... really annoying to look like you're half way crying all the time.

If the extra 2mm of thickness is all taken up by additional battery capacity they still have to do all that stuff. I mean, imagine the volume a mere 2mm extra thickness would give us on a phone the size they are these days, it would add a ton of battery capacity.

I really don't get why people praise the ATH-M50 so much. I bought a pair a few months ago after reading all the praise they were getting. Returned them the next day. They are sooo damn uncomfortable. I couldn't stand wearing them for more than an hour or two before they started hurting me.

If it says "Apple" on it there will be people buying and praising it no matter how good or bad it is.

LEDs do not inherently flicker, it's the drive circuitry that makes them do that if it uses PWM. A proper current controlled driver will not cause the LED to flicker. And even if they did use PWM to control brightness, you can get around the flickering problem by doing it at a high enough frequency.

Link it, maybe it'll help get your numbers up.

T'was a joke. I thought that was painfully obvious.

I can't be blamed for people making assumptions.

That's a silly distinction to make. It's still an execution no matter the method. Also, I'm fully aware of the gas chambers, I have a distant relative that survived Auschwitz.

The obvious solution is to just anchor a bungee to the ISS, how hard can it be?

I still find it hard to wrap my head around the sheer scale of the whole "operation". The calculated nature and efficiency of the whole thing. Back of the envelope calculation: One execution every 2-3 minutes every single day for five years straight is what it takes to get up to that number.

Two years ago. Would've been yesterday if the company I used to work for didn't have a boss that managed to tank the company completely.

Dude, it totally flies and it's not shaped like a toy plane, of course it's a drone. What else could it possibly be?

I always check the permissions and I'd say about 70% of any apps I've looked at I've skipped because of it. When something like a "flashlight" app (or similarly simple stuff) needs access to my e-mail, messages, location and god knows what else, that's when I say f!"k you and move on.

Technically, it does. The absorbed light turns into heat which would show up on an IR camera. Until the heat is transferred into the surrounding air of course.

I don't know what "tenents" means, but, following or believing in a "god" is not evidence of existence of such a being. It's like saying that if enough people say the sky is green then it suddenly is.

If you need it a few nano seconds later, at reduced intensity, then it'll work :) Imagine it as a ball bouncing on a surface, with every bounce it looses a little bit of height until it stops. Since no mirror is 100% reflective the light will behave in a similar way with the difference that it's all over within…
