It seems incredible to me that Microsoft would alter the execution of programs based on the filename of the executable. For all we know, there was another game with the same filename and this game has been caught in the crossfire. This is c

Very funny, but this could be used for both intentional and unintentional Black-hat SEO. My theory goes: 1. Create dodgy looking URL 2. AI in Gmail spots link, blocks it. 3. Blocked link is spidered for more information automa

Britisher here. I was disgusted to discover this when a colleague brought some from the US. I don't understand how anyone eats / ate this stuff.

Every three days I have to close the "shorts" bar in YouTube, which has been returning ever more quickly when I remove it. I yearn for the days before even the "Okay, we'll remove it for two weeks" or whatever. It w

Someone needs to add the PC Games Programming Encyclopedia to this list. It was what I used to learn back in the 90s, a brilliant resource. https://www.phatcode.net/articles.php?id=247

I'm able to do this using the Google Family controls for my kids' mobiles. I've tied it down so much that they use them rarely and for specific purposes.

No. Speaking as a Freemason, it's completely understandable that the Vatican would ban masonry for Roman Catholics, both from a practical perspective and a theological one.

What's frustrating me about this is that theoretically this list should include every MUD and BBS, if they don't want to get in trouble. It's a horrible law, which forces people into the pockets of the largest sites which can

If the aristocrats were in control we wouldn't have these problems. They stopped running things a long time ago.

The other side of this is related to morals. People learned self-discipline by having to moderate their diet. Replacing that challenge with an injection is another example of a world in which people are not challenged to grow as people, but

I felt the same when I discovered I was a Gemini. Come on - someone has created a category which describes a group of people in a fairly self-consistent way. Of course a large number of people will spot it and say: "Finally! The agency

Stop medicalising everything. These people don't have sufficient motivation to finish the things they've started. Yes, their hobby might be learning things. That's actually a pretty good hobby. Are they kidding themselves som

I suppose the most recent example are the people from Palestine Action being arrested en masse at protests.

Our town has been abandoned by police and is overrun with violent criminals on unlicensed motorbikes. So make of that what you will.

"Neanderthals appear to have matured faster physically but had a slower reproductive tempo overall, with longer spacing between births. That suggests fewer offspring over a female's reproductive lifetime." So my theory is tha

What are the chances that we discover that in some ways they were more advanced than early homo sapiens (I'm not saying "us" here, as I have a lot of Neanderthal DNA)?

When was this - are we saying that high school science teachers were aware of a fact that was not acknowledged by historians and anthropologists? Quite interesting!

The later real Sinclair ones like the QL. Rick Dickinson, who did these designs, was responsible for designing the recent Kickstarted ZX Spectrum Next, which is a lovely machine.

That's the terrible Wikipedia article. It says nothing at all about juridictions in which it's considered a valid legal principle. I notice that someone seems to have just flagged it "unclear".

The Oklo region has now-exhausted Uranium deposits. From Wikipedia: "Some of the mined uranium was found to have a lower concentration of uranium-235 than expected, as if it had already been in a nuclear reactor. When geologists invest

What confuses me is how TV App providers are going to make this work. How is the interface going to work to allow me to use YouTube on the TV whilst checking my age, and ensuring that it's me using the TV each time it's turned on

Every time I see anything about the varieties of ST, it gives me PTSD over the woeful keyboard. It was like a trampoline made of fudge. This says that the keyboard on the Mega ST was better. And yet still not good enough. Egads, that ST mes
