We aren't planning to control global population. We aren't anywhere near the changes required to make a difference to climate change. The powers that be are still promoting mass migration in order to increase the size of the glo

I don't think I'm alone in having to switch between multiple machine configs from day to day. The only way I could avoid using VMs would be to physically swap hard drives, at which point why not just work in VMs... As long as one

As one can imagine, oil and gas companies find this type of technology useful as it can highlight unprospected areas that were once nearby what are now well known oil fields. As might be expected, commercial versions offer far more detail a

For me it's when images are printed at A4, A3 upwards that the benefit of a good lens+decent-sized sensor combo becomes obvious. But how many people do that?

Is there anything more tedious than liberal divide-and-conquer tactics masquerading as x group rights? I'm amazed that anyone with half a brain can't see this stuff for what it is.

This article is not really about bread though, is it?

Not a single example of leftist/liberal misinformation in the piece. Either the left are as pure and innocent as a newborn kitten, or this article is itself misinformation.

Not so sure about that - I had a Philips CM8833 MK II that was pretty crisp, certainly crisper than a TV. I love pixel art! So much creativity squeezed out of such limited hardware.
