Strange. I lived there for nearly 20 years and must say they have pretty much perfected the craft of dubbing movies. I personally still prefer some "alternative voices" over the originals, i.e. for Homer Simpson (sounds more like

This is great. I use it for prototyping app ideas, and it works good so far. Only thing I've found to miss for my particular prototype is a "wait" function, but there's ways to build a little procedure for that. (Also I

I'm a bit stumped as to why I'm getting down-votes for this. Judging by the discussion that followed I am not wrong in pointing out the creepiness here. Also I never said I won't read it, only that I feel as if I'm cross

I am glad the author discovered how far modern GNU/Linux based distros have come, and that they are, indeed, very suitable for the majority of "casual user" use cases (email/web/videos/basic office). I don&#x27

I run Arch Linux for ARM on my Pis (headless via WiFi and ssh). What benefit might I get from using FreeBSD? I'm genuinely curious as I'm not very familiar with BSD/Unix (although I am comfortable with Linux)
