The seat collar also probably has the max torque printed on it. <<<< Nope. There's no need for a torque wrench on that one.

I don’t know why they’re downvoting you. Europe did fuck all. Shame on them!

I wish they would fix Outlook’s HTML rendering instead.

I’m sorry to say this but your site may only be appealing to you. Even though it will render on Commodore 64.

An interesting one to me was always this Italian comic that was extremely popular in Yugoslavia but hardly anywhere else. It’s called Alan Ford https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Ford_(comics). I wish I could get some copies now. I loved that dark humour as a kid.

Cryptic you were.

True that. AWS is on the list as well which is quite odd.

Hear hear! Fuck yeah!

After dealing with Microsoft’s subpar effort in porting their apps to Mac you won’t find too many people who will enthusiastically install another MS product on their Mac. Especially one so crucial to their workflow.

I get an email a day from an Indian company offering their services and Django and Python are never a part of their skill set. When I looked for a Django dev on Upwork there were very few Indians coming up. Ended up working with some Russians which were great but not much cheaper than local devs. I guess you always get what you pay for.

Chat is awesome. Personally I love it. You get to talk to someone in real time. What's not to like about it. I'm not sure why the OP is so revolted by it. Maybe remove the sound but leave the popup and chat.

This is my take:

Since China has had US military bases in its backyard for the past 70 years it finally feels that it’s big enough to flax some muscle in Pacific. Hence they’re doing that shit in South China Sea. US empire naturally sees this as a threat to its colonies and interests in Pacific. In order to seam like it’s doing something about it is pushing the anti China propaganda to its population by imposing the tariffs and in turn it is filling its coffers which are somewhat lighter since it gave the tax cuts to big business. Of course it has positioned the tariffs as if China is giving them that extra 25% instead of letting the American consumer realise that they’re the ones who will eventually foot that bill through higher prices. There won’t be any war. Neither country can afford it. And China won’t do much about it. They just want to seam like they’re retaliating in front of their population.

I wouldn’t stick my hand in your pocket! :)

Drugs are bad mkaaaay

But then you’re in Microsoft echo system. No bueno.

You nailed it. It’s cheap to borrow money and if you have a large deposit you can get a mortgage which your tenants will be paying off. Then you buy another. In Australia you can actually write the interest off as a tax expense. So it lowers your taxable income. With enough maintenance and repairs receipts and a few properties you’ll pay fuck all tax. Awesome way for people with money to make more money.

Why would you think they haven’t thought about it? Sounds like a great plan.

Sydney is a great example of where that doesn’t work. There’s a crane every 100 meters here and everyone but people with loads of money or rich foreigners is priced out.

Best comment here. Sydney AU has the same problem. The government is addicted to stamp duty and doesn’t want to do anything about the negative gearing and other handouts for the rich baby boomers. The situation is completely fucked up.

What a troll this David is.

A lot of electronics are just rebranded Chinese goods. I remember some years back a DLink, Netgear, Netcomm etc. modem routers all came from the same supplier in a different case. I used to work for one of them and we’d purchase competitors product, open it up and it’s look the same inside. We could even install our firmware onto their box.

They’ll drive it into the ground like what they did with Business Catalyst. The things will get stuck in middle management who doesn’t know web.

I would add route 53, S3 and easy of setting up security groups as killer features. Plus the ability to take a snapshot and boot an instance from it, awesome API, elastic IPs and reliability. I’ve had 8 instances across 3 data centres, for 5 years, with a single hardware failure where I’ve had to take action. Their shit just works.

Xero, Dropbox, Bitbucket, Audible, Netflix, S3

If you were any good you wouldn’t have 5 jobs in 5 years!

“That means the US CO2 emissions per kWh are significantly better than Germany, by the way." what? Where did you get that from?

It started happening to me when I registered a domain name and made my phone number available via whois lookup. The same day I got an Indian company offering me web services for the new domain. Then it escalated and every dodgy Indian web company started calling me. I managed to change the details and update the phone number to a local law enforcement agency's number, but I guess the number was online for long enough to spread through some kind of Indian scammer network. I started getting calls offering me to remortgage my home even if I don't have a mortgage, pretend calls from the taxation office (in American accent even though I'm not in the US) and a million other things like SEO services etc. A lot of the times they'll route calls through a local VOIP number and even have a local mobile number popup in my screen. They could totally scam me if it wasn't for the Indian accent that gives it away.

Have you ever tried something like magic mushrooms to perhaps rewire your brain? To remove that everyday filter for several hours and flood your brain with totally new experiences and a new way of looking at things. I think it's worth a shot but you'd have to do it in a controlled environment with people you like and who understand you.

How can a generic idea like this be patented? This is bullshit!
