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.

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.

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.

Yes, but Gmail and Outlook are "original" providers. I feel very uneasy, and find it unreliable and untrustworthy to allow another company access to my emails and contacts.

An email client for me is one that runs on my desktop, and talks to my "original" provider, nothing else.

It will run on hardware other than Apple, for those who do not own an Apple computer. It will be "always on", similar to iOS. If you use Android on your phone, you will feel right at home.

Does it requires a login, and/or my Gmail/Yahoo/etc. emails have to pass thru a third party server (yours)?

Edit:

Answered on help: "Every connection between Missive clients and our servers is encrypted using the Transport Layer Security standard (TLS). This also applies to connections between our servers and Gmail when we fetch your emails."

Thanks, but I pass.

I doubt it will be available. Normally two letters domains are reserved.

"Run powerful apps and the latest games. Pixel C has an NVIDIA X1 processor and loads of graphics horsepower. Under the hood, you’ll also find over 10 hours of battery life to keep you going strong."

How much graphics horsepower does ChromeOS needs? On the 10 hours of battery life, I would have expected more for a, more or less, one application OS.

Edit: Oh, did not know it was Android. Thanks!
