SourceTree is such a great program. It's also very intuitive and nooby friendly, as opposed to Github for Windows which never seized to confuse me and I've been using Git for years. With SourceTree, people completely new to Git an

Porn is only bad when it takes the place of sexual education, in these cases it can create unrealistic/distorted views about sex. There's no evidence that porn is linked with sexual violence, some studies showed the exact opposite

Excuse me, but why is a three year old browsing the internet without any adult supervision? If parents want to "protect" their children from porn they should set up filters themselves, or just opt out of the internet entirely if t

Yes, Pacman is actually quite easy to use and lacks a lot of historical inconstancies that make tools like apt hard(er). When I first started using Arch (coming from 'buntu and Debian) I was surprised just how straightforward most of t

I know, but IMO the bar is really low. If you have 10+ games in Steam you're pretty much an enthusiasts. Maybe I'm wrong, I'm mad about games ever since I played the first Doom on my father's 486. In my view you're

In the Chauvet Cave there are cave paintings that are 32,000 year old[1]. But what's even more interesting, is that some of these paintings are only 27,000 year old. Meaning, that these people knew about the place for almost 5000 years

There's nothing wrong with gaming laptops, it's just that both their performance and the experience they provide pales in comparison to a PC. (A PC that costs less, mind you.) I mean, you cannot realistically say that you can ha
