AGAIN, there was no breach in the Cabin, so it was at pressure.
Got a source on that? Wikipedia says nobody knows if there was a breach or not:
Whether the astronauts remained conscious long after the breakup is unknown, and largely depends on whether the detached crew cabin maintained pressure integrity. If it did not, the time of useful consciousness at that altitude is just a few seconds; the PEAPs supplied only unpressurized air, and hence would not have helped the crew to retain consciousness. If, on the other hand, the cabin was not depressurized or only slowly depressurizing, the astronauts may have been conscious and cognizant for the entire fall until impact.
You will recall that the first thing they did on the Columbia crash was lock the doors to prevent information from leaving the rooms. It's in the manual..... Everything is is in the manual.
Sure. The UK's most famous Founding Father is a fictional guy who banged his sister, whose wife was banging his best friend, and who was eventually killed by his incest-bastard. Oh, and he pulled a sword out of a stone, too.
I don't think so. That only works if Netflix is willing to sit there and take it. The Netflix "content cuts" have been mostly old movies that people watch on DVD anyway and TV shows that are available elsewhere - aka stuff they weren't making money on anyway. But if it comes to outright gouging, and they decide to actually put up a fight, all they have to do is post one paragraph on the front page:
Net Neutrality was overturned by court ruling recently, and so we are being forced to pay exorbitant fees to the ISPs to stay in business. As a result, the second season of Orange is the New Black has been canceled, and Breaking Bad will no longer be available for streaming.
Yeah, I've heard good things about TheyFit. The problem is they're not allowed to sell to/in the US (FDA regulations or some such thing; I didn't look at the details). Your average convenience store shelf (at least everywhere I've lived) has only standard and magnum. So I wish success upon TheyFit, and I hope other, similar companies start up, and I think Mr. Gate's money could have some weight in starting that.
How about you not try to ignite a flame war on an unrelated story? This is about condoms, not circumcision. It's an issue for both cut and uncut men. Take your rant elsewhere, please.
Condoms squeeze the guy, sometimes (depending on girth) causing complete loss of sensation (much like cutting off the blood from you foot or arm).
This is important. I hope, while they're redesigning the materials, they also do something to combat the "one size fits all" myth of modern condoms. Many people's aversion to condoms are a result of a size mismatch. Penises come in many different sizes, not just "regular" and "magnum", so what's comfortable for one man may not be for another. A condom that's too tight can cut off all sensation, while a condom that's too loose can slip or tear. Nobody advertises one-size-fits-all running shoes, but one-size-fits-all condoms are our only option. I hope Mr. Gates works to fix that as well.
Along the way, I discovered that coffee that's made with metal filters, or maybe we should say coffee that is not made with a paper filter, contains two harmful oils, called cafestol and kahweol. They've been discovered to be the most powerful blood cholesterol raising substances ever found. So the people who drink coffee that's made with a metal filter typically have LDL cholesterol, which is about ten percent higher than people who drink paper filter coffee.
I had never heard of these before (granted, I know very little about coffee in general). Is this a known issue in the field of coffee-making? Are these common in other coffees as well, and if so, should this be publicized more?
I don't know what qualifies as a "decent" touchscreen, but if they're out there I've never found one. I have never found a touchscreen that I was able to use without at least two typos per sentence. Large hands + small keys = no fun.
That's historical data reaching back as far as you'd like - decades or more. It covers both before and after the time when a single worker claimed he had made up data, despite all evidence that such a thing was not happening.
That's how it works in real life, though. You can't aim an actual gun if you're checking the bandage on your arm. FPS's are always trying to get more and more realism - this is a step towards that. Sorry if it's not your thing, but IMO it's awesome.

Oh no. Not again.
A rather morbidly apt sig.
It happened at 11:48am EST on a Tuesday. Were you skipping school or something?
Not the company, the app. I know my first thoughts when seeing this story were "Starbucks has an app? What? Why?"

Um, they did. Where are you seeing "sun" used for another star here?
Breakfast Flu?
In this country we call that a "hangover".

Instant pitchfork brigade.
Just because our souls are black and twisted doesn't mean they don't exist! *pout*
Oh, they won't touch Netflix. ISPs aren't dumb - they know that preventing people from getting entertainment is the fastest way to a public uproar.
That depends on which Appeals Court it is. There are thirteen of them.
Many people bought a ticket for whatever movie just to see the preview.
That was 1998. Movie trailers are all on Youtube now.
Ha! Just wait until I join a debate about circumcision!

The more you tighten your grip, Clapper, the more star systems will slip through your fingers.
They're just setting the stage for the next movie: Shark Avalanche vs. Lava Snake
Dr. Teller? Is that you?

Though they both cause extremely cold weather, a polar vortex and an Alberta clipper are very different meteorological events.

politifact check on the issue
"Hold" and "aim" are quite different concepts.
That's how it works in real life, though. You can't aim an actual gun if you're checking the bandage on your arm. FPS's are always trying to get more and more realism - this is a step towards that. Sorry if it's not your thing, but IMO it's awesome.
