As a long time Linux user, I keep thinking about trying a BSD variant, but I get hung up on two things. 1) Which do I pick? NetBSD? OpenBSD? 2) Hardware? I'm thinking about an old ThinkPad for programming, and it looks like OpenBSD at

I use MacOS at work, and I just can't get used to it. I love how fast I can navigate in i3 and how fast everything feels. I do like MacOS but I hate how the only shortcut keys to switch Windows are from cmd 1 - 5, I hate that I can

I've been Vegan for a year or so, and I tried the Beyond Burger the other day (in the UK, and I never seen Impossible Burgers over here so I haven't tried) and yeah it was actually pretty good but it was a lot more 'loose

Not going to downvote you as everyone has an opinion, but this argument is ridiculous. If you're saying everything dies so it doesn't matter, why is it wrong to kill another human? And dying isn't cruel (or the problem - on

I try and avoid the news whenever possible. Nothing good can come from it. I do however subscribe to a newspaper/magazine called 'Private Eye' that comes out fortnightly. Let's me catch up on the important news :)

Personally I've become disillusioned with most online multiplayer games (I've played WoW, Dota 2, etc. for thousands of hours) and I've been a lot happier now I pretty much only play single player offline games. Offline games

I'd like to add that I see a lot of people saying, "If you're vegetarian/vegan why are you going Burger King?" - Well, I don't go often, but on the off chance that I'm with some friends and they go to a fa

Jeez, here I get 10GB for £5 ($6). To be fair I do get this price because they're also my ISP but it's not hard to find a similar deal. Speed at home is 57Mbps down, 15.6 up. UK 4G speeds are generally not as great as most of Euro

So I've been using Amazon for years, and only had a bad experience once. I always used to use Anker products, especially their screen protectors that were cheap and worked well enough. I ordered the exact same listing maybe 4 or 5 time

Seems like a US-centric problem, in the UK the 'credit score' is completely worthless and different for each credit agency (there are three main agencies). Loans, mortgages, etc. are based on your whole credit history, and if you

Intersting, I've been looking into this recently and this might be the thing I need to finally get stuck into it. Pricing seems reasonable, I'm not sure about other comments saying it's a little high.

I think you are misunderstanding how our system works, perhaps if you read about how our system works you'd realise why this is not really a bad thing. However, our system is FAR from perfect (and I'm not claiming it to be).

As someone who doesn't eat meat or dairy I've heard the argument that the environmental impact would be less than a vegan that lives in a city. The argument being that a hunter is killing an animal that lived naturally is less of

I remember there was a case in the US where a girl was travelling to America, and the TSA took her phone and went through her email and found out about her previous drug addiction and refused her visa because of this.
