Here in Ireland I have 1000/100 asymmetric in a medium-ish town, no data caps that I've been able to discover. I pay €40/month. There does not seem to be any options available for a faster upload, which is unfortunate. I thin

Chickens learn from their mothers how to scrounge for food when they grow up free range. Releasing 1000s of tiny yellow chicks into the wild with no mother is way more cruel than current practises I reckon. I reckon the chicken industry als

For some reason C418's song "Minecraft", alongside the "klink-klink" sound skeletons make when near you are etched into my brain, like screen burn-in. I can recall the combination of the song and that sound instantl

The human hand is arguably the best general purpose gripper of human-scale objects. Only took evolution a couple of hundred million years to figure it out. If you can limit the scope of things to be gripped, e.g. a sheet of paper, a baby ch

Like others have said, go and watch it. It holds up exceptionally well. It's just a plain good movie. The tension, acting, the special effects, quotable moments, the dinosaurs, everything. Do it tonight and report back tomorrow please

Does the extra 3-6 miles factor in the need to now run the AC much more aggressively because the car will be hot from sitting in the sun all day? If this quoted number comes from the manufacturer itself, then I think the answer is "no&

I've heard the term "Cathedral" used quite often to describe massive enclosed spaces, especially if the interior surface is stony or hard. It's a favourite in the caving community to describe very large, well, cathedrals

I think we need to call American English "American", then you can speak American and I can speak English.

It's usually possible to access a single post if it's directly linked, but not possible to go to the profile from there, or access other tweets or relevant discussions about the post you have open. That's my experience anyway

And I blame the media. Politicians continue to post, and the media continue to quote them from twitter. I think it's shameful that politicians and other officials are using twitter as some sort of official media/announcement platf
