Bravo India! You 1. Don’t have this stupid time shift. 2. You don’t patronize your citizens’ ability

That’s why we should get rid of “it” in te summer, where it was added to begin with. anyone who’s a light sleeper appreciates how harmful daylight savings is. Plus no one stops any…

And how much does a drone and a drone hour cost?

They’re great to muscle little countries around.

Well glass tastes better, so sure. But the benefits are not obvious. If we assume diesel as a substitute good for plastic [1] then the additional weight of transporting glass could…

Thnx. Now that Nekochan is dead I’m really lost in the Irix world. Btw, do you know if there’s a way to make the boot drive a network drive (not the install drive)? I thought I rem…

I used an old SGI Fuel (700Mhz, 2GB Ram) as my daily driver @ work until 2013. I would rdesktop to use heavy websites, but other than that it rocked. Stopped using it because I gra…

That’s really the genius of Trumps foreign policy. He knows the heft of the USA and the spinelessness of EU leaders. Which really obviates the only real reason to have the EU - com…
