I made just 1 order from Temu until today. Unlike Aliexpress, Temu doesn't seem to pay any tax or customs in my EU country. I don't get it how they can get away with it.

Can someone suggest some good piano learning software? I really don't like subscriptions. Many years ago I used Voyetra Teach Me Piano Deluxe which ran on Windows XP, but gave up after some time. I think I'd have to create a virtu

A few days ago I discovered https://github.com/ealang/pixel-reader which lets you read EPUB-s on the Miyoo Mini Plus retro gaming device with a 3.5" screen. I really enjoy reading on it.

When I was in the market for a new washing machine I tried to purchase a review, but the online system wouldn't let me, because I'm not a German resident. It may be because the foundation recives German public money.

By knowing English, you can communicate with most of the world, because almost every country teaches English as a foreign language. For example, more than half of the popuation of Europe can easily communicate in English. I've seen tha

They should pay someone to create a good modern tutorial/book how to develop real commercial applications, not just include code of trivial examples. I'm using C++ Builder in my day job and the documentation is sparse, with very f

I use the newest version (Alexandria) of C++ Builder everyday in my job since other developers in the company have legacy software from the 90s. You can't really open old projects in new versions of the software. Some devs use VMs to d

I have a 8300 at home and recently spent half a day searching for an old driver that would enable WOL, since it's not supported by Windows 10 drivers. I managed to find a compatiable one that wouldn't be rejected by Windows eventu

A model that looks exactly the same costs 5€ on Aliexpress. I don't like to be ripped off.

It's not. I take the battery out after each use. Several users have reported this, for example: "Turns out they pull almost as much current off (15uA) as they do on (17uA)." https://www.reddit.com/r/harbo

I'm Slovene and now we have the same currency and open borders with Croatia again after 22 years. One of the reasons Yugoslavia fell apart is because the richer north didn't want to pay for the under-developed south. EU has the sa

As someone who has read one of his books, I strongly doubt that Lewis didn't look at the whole crypto-sphere critically. Remember, a lot of these guys are huge narcissists. They will reveal their darkest secrets to a famous journalist,
