    I think it's the same thing as showing mechanical sympathy towards other tools and objects. I've always slightly judged people on how hard they shut doors or how gentle they are wi…

    I'm from Europe and I use it 99% of the time. I find the UI in satnav mode much better (cleaner and readable) than the one Google Maps has. The only time I use Google Maps is when …

    Lint was only ever an issue with my Lightning connector iPhone. Unfortunately it wasn't the issue with the USB-C phones, the ports were just worn out.

    I treat my phones carefully, I've literally never cracked a screen on any of them, the same goes for handling the charging cable and port. I'm always quite gentle with it, never le…

    Which slavic languages have that? In mine I can't think of a single word for that other than kipuća voda which literally means boiling water .
