Anytime I go on the website, my fan start going crazy. But it is a good website with the most accurate forecasts, I feel. Another annoyance is that tree planting initiative, I was …

Sounds like justification for a false flag operation by the US government. How would they transport these massive things and launch them on a different continent? That, or the US i…

Load shedding hasn't been a problem for a while now. With proper maintenance of the coal stations and investments in solar, we haven't had it in Winter either. But you're right, it…

This translucent 3D look doesn't feel like they took usability into consideration. They just wanted to force a glass-look. At least the Aero look was frosted, this makes it so you …

As if Western-backed companies are some type of beacon of light. If news of your company has Trump and Oracle linked to it, you aren't the good guys. This is just the American way …
