    Same thing here. I took a picture of some gravel/grass and asked it to show me what it'd look like with tiles. I showed it another part of the property, and asked it to show me wha…

    How strange. I just tried this out and I see two unauthorised subdomains, with one being an actual "spam" website. However, I don't even know how to delete a subdomain that doesn't…

    NZ Marmite ftw! I had to tell my mum off for having Vegemite in her pantry the other day, but she had a decent enough excuse that made me giggle. "I buy vegemite because it comes i…

    A few years ago I took my Samsung S6 back to the store as the screen just randomly shattered on my desk. It wasn't cold, hot or in direct sunlight - just an explosion of glass real…
