If you think it's that bad I say (not in a snarky way) go but I'm not sure where. By your tone I suspect the EU is not your cup of tea. I think you're wrong I mean we have problems but so do all countries now healthcare is a

Yeah it's incredibly embarrassing to supposedly plan for so long only to have it fail so spectacularly. Even Georgia didn't go very well. It's hard to know if the person saying that about Putin is a plant for propaganda or if

I watched a news segment where a former government official close to Putin said people don't understand him. Putin goes into incredible detail when planning military campaigns. For Georgia and Ukraine Putin had been planning the attack

I was a teen in the 1980s and that was a time of action films. I think I like Weathers' role in Arrested Development the best I liked the dry deadpan humour his character was so great.

Just use a Wago connector no soldering needed. Not everything has to be or should be soldered so maybe the question should be what to use for which situation? From what I have read high current connections shouldn't be soldered (heat m

I recall watching a video years ago about coffins for some reason. It mentioned how in the US the coffin industry has to make much bigger coffins since people are much bigger. The reporter somewhat jokingly asked "Is there a coffin sea

From what is known the people we call Neanderthal were intelligent and were empathetic. They made seashell jewellery and they buried their dead covered in flowers. I'd be proud to have a high percentage.

There is a vital need for farm equipment to be open source. I get the feeling quite a few people have no clue where their food comes from. This was going around years so the source may have been removed. "Seven per cent of American adu

I would assume things like that maybe after a bone marrow transplant but having a blood transfusion seems pretty mild I wouldn't expect any affects from it.

Yeah I'd say unplug for sure it's amazing how many things can be solved by just unplugging something and letting any charge dissipate. That was my go to trick when I was a slot tech at a casino. The old $50K/each slot machine

For my ATARI 600XLI I stored stuff on cassette tapes it was an official add on you had to buy. I think the command was CLOAD to load stuff from it. A lot of failed code from computer magazine programs typed in by 14 year-old me on cassettes

That's a blast from the past. I remember image maps and the struggle to put one on my site. It was called DeskNexus.com sometime in the early to mid 1990s. It was so long ago that I forget when it was. My idea was to have a website as

But those are not the only language they know though it's just a different language. The parts of a person's brain where language and speech exist are already developed. It's a mix of several areas for comprehension, speech,

The Seaglider would be great for my region of South-east Canada. There are four islands and two other areas each with at least three sides facing water. It wouldn't be open ocean so wave height shouldn't be too bad. The big thing

That's why I ignore phys.org they often have sensationalist headlines. They've cried wolf too many times for my liking. The only reason I am typing this is I clicked to see comments by mistake.

I find it difficult to believe. It was April -2C air temp in the open ocean and water temp probably 0C or 1C. Even with clothes on or relaxed you'd be dead in 15 minutes. I live in Canada on the coast and there are many news articles o

Back in the 1980s I hated Phil Collins' "Take Me Home" it seemed to be just those words, the title of the song, but I guess I am remembering it worse than it was.

That's a big assumption that the sun can even be seen lol it's always cloudy here in SE Canada it seems. It's nearly 8am the sun supposedly is up but the clouds are so thick it may as well be 5am.
