I also very much hate this feature, and trigger it often. However if you shake the window you have again, all the minimised windows should be restored.

I've been walking for a good number of years now, yet every now and again I'll trip on something, or bump into a wall. I wouldn't call walking hard.

They are doing that, and have been doing it for years. Adoption is extremely slow.

I prefer not to try and push everything down and bury it. I've definitely thought about what life would be like if I got divorced, just like I've daydreamed about what my life would be like if I didn't have kids. That doesn

Me and my wife joke about getting divorced all the time, and we've been happily married for 15 years. Maybe that joke wouldn't be appropriate for your marriage, but I'm not really into people giving absolute truths about oth

They said beer, not a beer. In Australia, the cheapest 6 pack you can buy is about $22.

As a primarily C++ developer, I absoloutly hate maintaining code that is written like this. C has it's place in the world, but despite the fact that the language has a large amount of overlap in syntax, they are very different languag

I had the same issue. A bios update was what fixed it for me.

I must have the same model Samsung fridge as you. Every 3 months or so I need to pull it apart and defrost the fan. It's super annoying and apparently very common in that model. I don't think I'll be buying Samsung again.

I've played a lot of Factorio, but I haven't played with any mods. Any you would recommend? I am eagerly anticipating Satisfactory, which looks like a first person Factorio.

That's pretty close to my routine as well, and by the end of the day I was a lot of the time too tired to put much (if any) effort into my side project. As a New Years Resolution, I've been getting up at 5:30 each morning to get 1

In Australia, you are allowed to drive a manual if you do your test with an automatic when you are on your open license. It's only on your P's that you can't.

Really? I only lived in NYC for 2.5 years, and even I avoided Times Square like the plague. The only time I ever went there was to show it to out of town friends, and even then it was begrudgingly.

While I like the idea of weworkremotely.com, as someone who currently lives in Australia it would be so beneficial to be able to filter by jobs that require a specific timezone or country (which on that site they are almost all required to

They didn't say they were fired after 5 months. I left Amazon after 10 months. It had nothing to do with underperformance, it had to do with the working conditions within the team I was on. My manager was very happy with how I worke

You can still do it. I follow 10 or so friends, and I've never linked facebook. The mechanism for adding friends is needlessly obtuse though. You need to add spotify:user:<username> in the search box to find them, then you can

I had Austar around that time, and it was kind of ad free. They advertised other shows on that channel, and sometimes other channels, but there wasn't any ads for products. But I remember around the early 2000's that started to
