Why wait, without a passport he would be an Illegal Immigrant. We have enough crooks in the United States, we don't need to import more of them to take those jobs too!

There are a number of classic mac emulators that will run everything at far better than original speed. Basilisk II / Sheepsaver meets my needs, but there are a lot of options.

It's the southwest rift of Kilauea, we know exactly why it's there, the island is pulling itself apart as it slumps into the ocean and that gashis where the direction of pull changes along the rift. What amazing journalism /s.

Missed opportunity for it to be 1.21 GW. I'm sure they can add another reactor.

I feel like the obvious thing to check here is that all chrome processes have terminated between tests. If it's still running some zombie process of course the data would persist.

I feel like this is an edge case where it's less expensive for Verizon to issue a refund than it is to actually fix the problem. Sometimes paying for the problem to go away is the best solution and you get a new thing that works better.

Because using Amazon, one of the most popular e-commerce sites and an example of an app that doesn't expose a URL of content makes a great example of a wide class of applications and conveys the message I was trying to express.

I use share buttons all the time on social platforms, and apps like Amazon that don't have any other way of deep linking.

Lot's of people use apps that don't expose a link, share buttons are great and even better when they use standards like your OS's share functionality.

I get more calls from Google Security than any other thing. Oddly the Pixel's built in scam detection and call screening lets them through without fail. I normally don't have my phone even ring unless it's in my contacts, but saying you are calling from Google is like a magic code.

I think the zim flow was perfect for offline use. I know I will be making use of it as soon as I can figure out how to pass chrome the cookies so I can be signed into the site. Didn't see it in the page, but I didn't look closely yet.

The US Government can own and nationalize it in a heartbeat if they want to. Even other Billionaires hate Musk.
