    Hey Minecraft fans,
    I have a Pocket Edition world I made as a kid and for a few years I've been trying to convert it to a desktop version with no luck. Would anyone be interested in doing that for me? I would pay a small price to have it done!

    Wow that’s great, thank you. I might splurge for that timex one eventually. It looks like it does exactly what I need.

    I’m looking for a device that can track runs, whether it’s a watch or small device, which just exports raw GPS data via USB. I don’t want it to have Bluetooth, and it’s not enough to be able to disable it, I would just like it to not have any wireless radios whatsoever. Have you guys ever seen anything like this? I feel like it doesn’t exist on the market.

    If Sam Harris thinks everyone should not resist and feel safe in police custody then I challenge him to learn a little bit about the Saskatoon Starlight Tours and see if he still thinks the same way.

    I didn’t find the trailer overly compelling. Maybe the gameplay will change my mind.

    There is something like this. Sorry, shameless plug, nano.org It is not without its flaws, but it is my favourite crypto and it was distributed via a faucet in small amounts.

    Interesting. I’m not brave enough for this lifestyle. I hang on to lots of little things. Especially if they remind me of important people in my life.

    I understand it is legal to make a citizens arrest, and it’s legal to open-carry, but is it legal to use a gun in a citizens arrest? If it is, it seems like too much power granted to a civilian.

    I used Apple Music religiously for almost 5 years until earlier this year when I discovered my old iPod. You can’t use Apple Music on an iPod (how ironic) so I broke out my old iTunes library. A few weeks later I cancelled my Apple Music subscription and just using iTunes. I absolutely love it.
