Is anything of what he said untrue?

Yeah, I didn't think so either.

I like your brand of sarcasm.

Why do you like playing moderator? If you want to be a moderator, email dang, dude.

The shilling is high with this one. I think he's using the "repeat it until it becomes true" tactic.

Are you really basing your share buying/selling decisions off HN comments?
Yes.

Additionally, you'll be treated to some specially prepared, uh, eggs if you click through to his site from HN.

jwz isn't exactly a fan of "Hacker" "News". You may want to open that link in incognito mode.
Well, watch the news this Saturday. Soon it won't be fictional anymore, and will come with an, uh, bombish flavour.
It got run over by some idiot not paying attention to the road.

I'm assuming this happened to a family member/friend/acquaintance of his.

Are you for real?

How so? I'm pretty sure Syrians had to unlearn that long ago. Now that realisation is (literally) coming here.

I guarantee there's a way to get that pipe to purge all packages in your system.

But how are we to make money then?! Do you want Elon Musk to keep all off it for himself? Why do you hate America?

Stop spreading FUD.

I've been running my own email server for a year without delivery issues to Gmail or Outlook/Office 365.

Just make sure your VPS IP is not blacklisted, and play the DKIM/etc game. You'll be fine.

Thanks a lot for this. I wonder what it'd take for the tide to turn against cars. That picture is depressing.

Where do you live?

I've never been to the US so my mental picture of it (which Google Maps seems to confirm) is 99% extremely wide roads, not European-style walkable at all.

So I think, I could never move there (I can't drive a car) and places where I wouldn't need a car are to expensive to live in (NY, Washington).

Are there many Londons in the US?

EDIT: oh, it's Boston.
