I wonder does that lead to a lot of waste? Eg. the 30% of the box thats the flavour that no-one (at this shop) buys, goes off and is dumped, for every box. Maybe the ratios are determined by their global sales, who knows. You would think

You say 'No' and then do not refute my statement, Just make a minor nitpicky remark (that its actually PFOA we're talking about) and some other true but ancillary remarks.

Hmm. I tend to always have my window open, no matter what the season (If its winter I will just wear some jumpers) I can't abide stuffy rooms with no window open. I also like to think and read and create and use my brain a lot. I wonde

Well the parent comment was referring to the apple macintosh, which is what I was also referring to. Though that does seem to be Apples general design policy 'make it look nice' to the exclusion of all else. Hey it sells though! I

Ignoring many of the more pragmatic requirements of a design in favour of superficial aesthetics is not elegance. Elegant design is solving as many requirements as possible with as few elements as possible. A claw hammer is elegant, macs ar

I will never understand why people buy consoles. By doing so, rather than getting some kind of pc, you are doing nothing but paying a lot more in order to greatly restrict your options and make all your gaming utterly beholden to some corp.

@RenRav Whats your workflow for 'ad-blocking away all the unnecessary elements'? Sounds like a lot of work to me, but I do not work with the web.

I do understand the sea-steaders POV. It is annoying how when you are born, you are born into a pre-existing system of corporations and government over which you have little to no say in. One must get some pointless job in order to pay re

Someone brought this up in an older thread about this device.. Why use this? You could just use a hammer, or pour water into them. It seems bizarre that he paid money for this device when there are many completely free ways to trash a pc.
