    Same here. Although it's been a very long time since I bought on eBay as well. Now that I make some serious money, I'd rather buy from Amazon. Not the marketplace either. Just plai…

    I use gmail and search for stuff. That is about it. And because of that, I only log in like once a day into gmail, check mails and log out. Why would I want to stay logged in after…

    That's too bad. The light bleeding makes playing games like Elite Dangerous really cumbersome. You can even dial down the cockpit LED brightness but that doesn't help with the blee…

    I feel you on the boring parts of F1. This, coupled with the idiotic halo they just have to put on the cars next year will mean that I spend my weekends a bit differently. But, to …

    Yup, that's the other thing. Obviously, the greens don't want nuclear power but so far, the renewable energy can't satisfy the current demand. Let alone an incresed one because of …

    I get nightmares thinking what that will do to electricitry prices. The graph of how they rose is already awful. And now imagine if the tax collected on mineral oil for gas falls a…

    My Win7 Ultimate installation is looking better and better. At least three more years of peace of mind while being entertained by stories like this. One can only imagine the state …

    Battery life seems not like a surprise. Isn't Apple only selling 2015 MacBooks without a discrete GPU? So you basically only have Intel Graphics in there which would mean a charge …

    Sounds fine for people who are resistent to motion sickness. But, especially in a medical setting, what would they do if the patient became nauseated during surgery? Surely that ca…

    I don't think the whole point of the game could have been to "clear" the levels. I mean, Mario auto runs and auto hops enemies. Save from having to manually jump pits its not reall…

    Someone already does. ZapTip etc. But how often have we heard about issues? Short Circuits and even fires and it ended up being a non Apple Third Party acessory that was faulty and…
