I was comparing games prices last week and I found that prices from the 80s aren't too different from modern game prices. Elite was £20 in 1984 and that would be £66 today, which is not very different from what a good game for the PS5

In the movie Thirteen Days, JFK mentions a book titled March of Folly by Barbara Tuchmann. I bought the book on that tip and it has an interesting chapter on Vietnam. I don't think adding a chapter on this "special operation"

They don't. They work as intended and "hallucination" is actually a marketing term to make it seem they are more than what they really are: text prediction software.

One fact that I find very curious is that I see all sorts of animals killed on the road, but never chickens. And I see plenty of them by the road. Maybe they never try to cross roads?

In Brazil we have tiny native bees that don't sting. They make wax tunnels and the colonies grow very very slowly. I've been watching one for 20 years and it doesn't even seem to have doubled in size. They have suffered a lot

Arm came from Acorn and Acorn did make the first ARM CPUs for their computers, so it's not really the first time they do this.

In 1998 I was using a P166MMX with 64MB of RAM that I had bought in 1995 for my Master's. It makes much more sense to me to be cheap on the CPU and splurge on RAM. So I don't see why I would want to upgrade that CPU and keep the 3

In my country, the government would have to get something in return (support would be the most obvious channel). LibreOffice has some obvious disadvantages: it does not have an office in my country, it does not offer support, and it does no

I find their music repetitive. I could certainly listen to one or two songs, but not a whole album or show. And I would have no qualms wearing a T-shirt of theirs. So there you have it.

There are a few, but it seems that the best option is usually offered with Windows. The last 3 machines I bought (for myself and for family members) came with Windows and I immediately installed Linux on them.

Plus it's hard to buy a computer without paying the MS tax, unless you build one yourself. That's an issue I would like to see legislated! In fact, in my country there is a law that prohibits bundled purchases: it's just that
