I'd prefer to see something like Matrera Castle. For architecture I find it a bit much, probably because it needs to be structurally sound, but for a skeleton or an antique it could bring more attention to the real parts and still offe

I just have to disagree. A car company can and should expect the users to read the manual. If you only use what's visible in the driver's seat, you'll never find the sump plug, service plan, tyre spec, engine bay... The alter

There's a station near me that just opened. Pay at pump, pumps only on one side. 'Surely' I thought, as I pulled up, 'the hoses will reach the other side'. They didn't. So I got out to move my hatchback car clo

I agree. If a bank has physical branches to fall back on, they can squander the online/phone story. This has happened with another bank I use which has a website with a broken account creation form and phone lines that just die. For mo

My employer uses Ubuntu for most developers, meaning all our software is designed to work on the latest LTS Ubuntu and we (I assume) pay a significant amount for support. But the only reason we use Ubuntu is because it's more familiar

Firefox's implementation of this annoys me. If I'm trying to find a page I was on before, I sort history by date (obviously) and go back to around the time I was on it to start clicking. ...which drags the website I clicked on to

And the use is what? Maybe it brought you joy, (a perception of) respect, or money? 2 of those come with sport and the last just brings the other 2.

The credit score that an agency sells to you won't change, but that's just a tool for them to sell you things like Amazon are selling here, and doesn't reflect the way a lender will look at the credit history , your salary,

IMO compatibility issues are the result of conflating a CLI with a scripting language. If a script was written for bash, run it with bash, not fish or zsh. I can withstand having two shells installed.
