I will forever be eternally grateful that you courageously charged ahead so I could avoid wasting precious minutes of my life not watching some low end second string protein drink contest which offered no resolution.

Fucking good for Dodai, always thought it was a joke she didn’t make editor.

That’s right - I forgot about that. I’ve used it abroad to make calls back to the US, but it works for me because I’ve already got the account.

Science nerd feels the need to point out that the study was on ground squirrels, not the tree squirrel which you put a picture of at the top of the article.

Chef here: not sure where they found a golden delicious that didn’t turn to flavorless mush when baked.

Just to clarify: The Guardian Guide is a small format tv and culture guide, with a few small, undemanding articles on pop culture, movies, musicians etc. The main magazine supplement is called Guardian Weekend and is a much, much bigger deal with heavyweight articles. Both come with the Saturday edition of the paper.…

Not only was this intentional, Microsoft also removed the ability of system administrators to block the re-installation of these bundled apps via Group Policy (they call it “consumer experience”) in Windows Pro. In other words, if you run Windows Pro in an office or other professional setting, you are stuck with…

I said screw windows and installed Linux on all of my non Mac computers.

Holy shit - this is just a straight forward informative post explaining the answer to an interesting question. Well done.

No disrespect, but I think there’s one small line missing in this article: Congratulations to Elina Svitolina on her win.
