That seems to be similar on this one. &room is local, while #room is federated.

Nice rant, but it has nothing to do with the app itself. Just use JS, done.

Sprint? No, thanks.

Is there a simple document that guides through building and configuring my own public node? Thanks!

Yes, religion (especially Christianity) comes, once again, to mess things up. It is the cause of many problems we have today, and it affect us all, as it is deeply ingrained in politics and government.

I can go and sell blood, or work ten hours a day, or eat until I explode, yet I have someone dictating what I can or cannot do with my sex life?

Certainly more than a few remnants from the dark ages.

Absolutely not. There is too much regulation as it is. Cigarette smoking harms, the smoker and others. Prostitution does not.

Time to switch browsers. Chrome v51 (dev) under OS X renders it flawlessly.

Not everyone has the skills, nor the tools to do this. I love the idea, and wish someone would make the machines (or the entire kits to assemble at home). I would buy them!

I love NPR too, and I do not think podcasts can even begin to match the audio-documentary experience that NPR provides. Having BBC on it is an amazing bonus.

You meant OS X? ;-)

I do not see the death of OS X on iOS. If anything, I see it morphing.

Is there, somewhere on that page, information about the price of the car we can make the reservation? Are they taking reservations without stating the car price at all?

You are assuming the vast majority sees CNN, etc. and/or reads the NYT. That, I think, is too bold.

I don't think there is anything in common between the two, from personalities, party affiliation, to how they conduct themselves in public.
