    For some users, they're perfect (not all - schools etc need Win/Linux/Mac). I have family members who should just have a Chromebook as all they do is browse the internet - copy and…

    I've not heard of this before and upon looking this looks fantastic! Cross Platform and sticking to being good at requests! Postman really grinds on me as to how it's gone down a p…

    Looks to be the USA equivalent to the GOV.UK One Login system which is also being pushed. Good to see goverments trying to working across departments to make things, eventually, ea…

    Lacto free milk only works for when you are making stuff from scratch and not buying pre-made stuff. For whenever I use milk, I buy almond these days as it's marginally cheaper and…

    Sadly is the case for me as well. A friend of mine went vegan just for the sake of at least it eliminated any possibility of diary products in their food. At least in the UK the en…

    Google likes to shutter things all of the time which is a bit of a shame. It does show that having a website which shows your business is a good thing. Sadly while not free, having…

    Looks fantastic, and the comment about Photopea. Photopea is such a gem, and can't wait for their Vectorpea to launch as it's got me out of trouble so many times when I don't need …

    The UK Government's efforts to make their services digital, easy to understand and workable is such a great effort. The digital department also has many common tools to help such a…

    That JS hack looks perfect. Except it shows up just how bad a font I've had to deal with is - Bebas Neue where the dimensions are just completely out of wack on it's little chart.

    Yeah I once had my old Macbook Air get insanely hot to the point it felt dangerous. I left it in the sink (dry and in case it blew up it would be somewhere non-flammable) to calm d…
