I was surprised when I first went, the people that live there are allowed on 5 of the islands, with the largest island hosting the town of puerto ayora. The town has 10,000 people, and total population of the Galapagos is 30,000 and growing

My friend who works at the airport in the Galapagos (GPS) was telling me that no one has gotten paid since the tourism stopped. Luckily she can work on farm, but many can't. The local animal shelter there is now out of food, and the do

I don't understand this point though, since on a yearly basis it will be roughly the same for them: "This funding is sufficient to provide the Internet Society with broadly equivalent annual earnings we currently receive from PIR.

I think you have this backwards, paying others to make food for you is a luxury. If you can afford a $50 microwave that you can then use to make meals that cost less than a dollar, that is the standard. You don't need a 'nice kitc

The article mentions that in 2013 a "gay propaganda" law [0] was signed by Putin, I wonder if this lawsuit is simply trying to take advantage of the anti-LGBTQ movement that seems to be happening in Russia. [0] https://

Just a note: the author claims Huawei is the number 2 smartphone company ahead of Apple, but the cited story was regarding a 2 mo streak in 2017 before Apple released the iPhone 8. According to IDC [0], the rankings currently go Samsung, Ap

As much as I like Malwaretech, and followed him long before WannaCry was around, stopping malware isn't a reason for a pardon. Arresting him by waiting until he came to the US rather than issuing when they knew they wanted him should b

There's a website[0] that goes into detail comparing different providers. This used to be a shared spreadsheet but the author chose to turn it into a website. I still have the old spreadsheet if anyone wants it (from 2016?). I was look

I think that’s definitely the exception, moving money internationally is a PITA unless you want to pay high fees for less hassle. It’s definitely more trouble than moving money within the same country.
