The scene at 1:18 is horrifying! https://youtu.be/ZQ7_En2xEm4?t=78 You see the driver engulfed in flames while the track staff try to extinguish the fire. Such an amazing story that the driver walked away relatively unharme

I'm surprised the article doesn't mention the #metoo movement, because that's what I associate the current use of the word with. So while this term became more prominent in the Trump-era, I don't know if I would associat

I'm surprised they didn't route the power and network cables down inside the legs instead of just being tied to the outside.

Yep, agree. Starting with Bootstrap is fairly frictionless, it has good library support, and there are heaps of documentations/examples/tutorials easily available. And if you need to change the look and feel, you can swap out the

This may seem silly to a bunch of people in this thread, but MS Office and OneDrive is what is keeping me on Windows. I rely on the core MS Office apps enough that I wasn't able to switch to Linux full time. Also, I rely on OneDrive an

Yes but if you tell the restaurant to not put kale in your food, and they go ahead and cook it in kale juice anyway, you'd be a bit annoyed right? Burger King aren't complaining about it - they are still promoting the plant-based

"McPlant" is a fairly horrible sounding burger! Burger King here in NZ have plant-based burgers called the Rebel Whopper which is quite a catchy name. Technically, it can't be classified as vegetarian though, because it'

My approach with Google and these other big companies is to use their free services but treat them as disposable. For example: I use Google Photos all the time, but my photos are also synced to OneDrive which, in turn, is synced to my compu
