    Near me Google maps displays a road that has been removed in 2008. When I found that out earlier last year, I used exactly this feature to suggest a removal. As of now, the road is…

    Mobile providers still upgraded their existing antennas. With my Note20 Ultra 5G on Sunrise, half of the time I am outdoors I get 5G (in Aargau) with speeds between 400mbps-600mbps…

    I think most didn't notice. Basically everyone in our class used their smartphone as primary computing device, only a few even have used laptops or computers at home. Those that di…

    My primary and secondary school used Free Software extensively. They ran Ubuntu on all school laptops and everyone used LibreOffice. The web browser of choice was Firefox. The teac…

    I think this whole thing was a good idea, at least for me. I've had a Keybase account since back when they were invite-only. Once this whole thing launched, I finally convinced mys…

    I've had months where I used over 100 gigs on Salt's unlimited plan. I also have a co-worker who does the same with their Sunrise subscription, all without a problem. Within Switze…

    I don't see how Fuchsia can pull this off without having at least compatibility with existing Android apps. Even if they do: I could see a ton of smartphone brands continuing to ma…

    While I do agree that Steam needs a competitor, Epic hasn't been the one I have hoped for. Steam has been doing many great things for the industry including the pushing of VR as we…
