Importing animals of any type into Australia isn't easy since they don't have many of the diseases on other continents, nor would they likely ever approve this for non-native speci…

Changing the legal age in this manner would have had serious negative effects on my life. Frankly this idea horrifies me. Let me explain: -A job I had in highschool enabled me to b…

Interestingly, I've seen \_/ used these days to refer to a dumpster.

Have you tried disabling the apps instead of uninstalling them? I've had good luck with this on stock roms when you can't uninstall the carrier's apps. Settings » Apps » All » Appl…

I guess it's a good thing he didn't have an SSD and TRIM enabled!

The demo is nice, but it will probably be relegated to a single player experience. How could they implement co-op or online multiplayer? These features turn a game from something t…

I would guess that the need to "root out" the people who do not have constructive things to say will ultimately hurt the site more than it helps it. The editor shouldn't feel any n…
