Hey, who are you calling nobody! I've been using Linux as my desktop for the last 15 years, for both home and work. Granted, I'm an IT…

That's true. More medical professionals are recognising diet and exercise as treatment for various conditions. Though many are still…

Don't be so quick to be dismissive. Have a listen to the podcast. They're both extremely knowledgeable on processes that happen in the…

Good podcast on cholesterol, using recent scientific studies. https://youtu.be/1vhu02_MRjA The two people giving the podcast are a…

> Are you implying that the factory workers that manufacture weapons are coming off best here? Could it be that the companies are the ones…

> Please explain how 10,000 people per day coming across is restricted? Because it would likely be a lot more if it wasn't restricted. > If…

Oh man, here we go. Firstly, you're weakening your argument with your ad hominem attacks. If you want to refute my points, it's more…

What are these "open borders"? The US hasn't had an open border since the 1920s. It's rhetoric spread by Republicans, and is a bald faced…

Nice deal. Don't know much about the game, but at that price, seems worth a speculative purchase. Should the post title specifically say…

Don't just take the word of people here. See the Thermomix in action on The Katering Show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yr_etbfZtQ

I have encountered a couple of questionable moderations of my posts on WP, but I've had some positive experiences as well. One time, I…

God no. Don't discharge every month. The only real reason for discharging is so the battery indicator can recalibrate levels for a more…

Thing about batteries is, they really hate being run down to zero. It wears on the anode/cathode structures in the battery, reducing the…

I had the same experience, many years ago, when I actually paid attention to Catch. Bought some Sennheiser earbuds from them. The rubber…

E10 if you're in a pinch. The engine knock sensors will retard the timing, and your engine will be fine, but it'll waste power doing so.…

I just like collecting the game and being able to display it on a shelf library. Appeals to the collector in me. I severely dislike this…

Yep, feature is called "Wifi Calling". Boost definitely works with this, as well as Telstra and Optus. You have to have a mobile phone that…

I was thinking the same. I guess there's a glut in the market for NVRAM devices. Black Friday could be exactly the right timing.

You're very hostile to someone who is just trying to politely explain what may be happening. So you specifically asked Bunnings if others…

I think the point of the downvotes is that your actions are depriving someone else of a bargain. You are, in effect, acting selfishly and…

Yep, boost. Compression level / pressure generated from compression ratio plus initial pressure difference vs atmosphere, as opposed to…

I think pegaxs was getting at changing the compression level, not compression ratio. Which reducing forced induction would do. And fair…

Your examples significantly change the engine, so for my argument, it fits into the "different engine" description. But, you do have a good…

Actually, it does give you more power. If your engine is able to compress the fuel-air mixture high enough. But if you don't have an engine…

I'd describe it more as "designed" rather than "tuned". The fuel RON rating is directly related to the compression ratio of your engine.…

It's all good. My password is hunter2. So it should be safe. Can't think of anywhere else on the internet that would have that password.

Though data breaches are much more likely if the company has not supplied proper resources to their security team. It'll be interesting to…

Nice one! Not often you get to see Dewalt batteries on sale.

Advantage of Linux? No licensing or registration required (other than commercial distributions or commercial software). If you want to…
