    I think many haven't read that part, as it is hidden by default and one have to expand the answer to see it. At least that was what happened to me... I didn't noticed it until you …

    Just ask your favorite AI "How U.S. compares to others countries in healthcare metrics?" and you'll probably get a detailed list of how U.S. healthcare is more expensive than many …

    I had the almost the same thought. It reminds me of every time I hear Americans saying that they don't want their tax dollars going to the "wrong people" (even if the majority of s…

    I received once a mail from my bank at the time stating that they have a message for me, but for security reasons I have to read it on their systems. And they provide the following…

    I have noticed that runas is mentioned as an already existing sudo alternative, but as far as I know, runas asks you for the administrator's password. sudo asks the own user passwo…

    It's interesting to see that a thing that doesn't deserve a second look in some places of the world, it's news and generate debate in others :D

    Google killing free gmail would be a big hit to their brand. I don't think they can afford that

    You paint a figure from point A to point B. Then It just starts from point B to paint the same figure you painted (same speed and all). At same time it removes from A side what is …

    Yes, there are invisible buffers, but the discrepancy doesn't come from this. Drive makers count the space in 1000 -multiple units (i.e. 1GB = 1000*1000*1000 bytes) whereas in comp…

    Well, at least Michael Widenius, the most visible head of MySQL and one of two cofounders, is finnish. He also created the MySQL's fork MariaDB. Both names came from Michael's daug…
