I upvoted you because what you're saying is true now , but it wasn't back then. Both Costco and Sam's Club 25 years ago were truly "warehouse" stores. They had no heat. No air conditioning. They weren't bright

Sorry to hear that. I've had a Surface Book, SB2, SB3, and looking forward to Surface Book 4 and Duo 2. The moment I got my original Surface Book, I felt like it was "the future" of laptops. I know the price tag puts a lot of

Okay there's about a dozen reasons Librem 5 will never be more than a fun developer's toy. Here's just a few. 1) It's difficult to use as a daily driver even for experienced people. It's impossible for the average p

Because GIMP was and is a pile of garbage in terms of UI and UX. The same fate of entirely too much open source software. If it looks like trash and is difficult to learn, people are going to give up on it.

What exactly do you do there? From what I understand, order picking there must be god awful, but being the receiving clerk might not be so bad. Being on-site IT might not be so bad. Certainly being the Director of Operations for that wareho

Negative, Ghost Rider. American spec ops prefer, and often use, Toyota Land Cruisers and HILUXs, for the very reason behind the Australian proverb! :)

Bolts are a bargain right now because of a safety issue so serious it has a STOP-SELL RECALL order, meaning dealerships aren't allowed to sell them until its fixed, which happens sometime this month. https://electrek.co&#x2F

There's an Australian expression, "If you want to go into the bush, take a Land Rover. If you want to get out of the bush, take a Land Cruiser."

It's because of Ghostbusters (2016). It just took this long for everyone else to catch up and realize that, "it can happen to you". We were all supposed to love that movie because it has four women in it! Turns out a shit mov
