Do you think that smart phones ought to be banned because texting and playing games like pokemon while driving leads to many deaths on the roads and no amount of warnings and laws stops people texting while driving.
Maybe a "stupid phone" could be used as a substitute and a second device for...
I have two smart phones, one is an HTC One Max but its back cover keeps popping off because I bent the phone a little and unbending it is not working.
I also have a Leagoo M8 which is a very inexpensive phone made in China. It looks like this
There are tiny critters that we call Tardigrades and they are semi-indestructible as well as able to hibernate for 30+ years and all sorts of things. They achieve remarkable things by building certain sorts of protein .... some scientists are investigating how human beings can benefit from these...
Consider insects and spiders and it will not take long before you encounter immorality (from a human perspective) on a monumental scale. Children that eat their dead mother. Insects that dress themselves in the dead bodies of their prey, sex on a frighteningly massive scale, murder in the "bed...
Arithmetic - a sexist enterprise ...

It is popular to denigrate political leaders because of their alleged untruthfulness and they do tell the public lies so the denigration is not entirely undeserved. In the USA there is an example of lies, damned lies, and Donald Trump's executive branch. In Australia we have Malcolm Turnbull and...

How many senses do you have.
I'll start the list with one you may not have heard of before.
Proprioception (/ˌproʊprioʊˈsɛpʃən, -priə-/ PRO-pree-o-SEP-shən), from Latin proprius, meaning "one's own", "individual", and capio, capere, to take or grasp, is the sense of the relative position of...
In the 1980s and 1990s there was a battle between Atari and Commodore (with the Amiga). In the end the Amiga won but Commodore was poorly managed so they went bankrupt and so did Atari. But the Atari ST and Commodore Amiga were interesting machines.

I hate ribbons! No not the little silk bits of shiny cloth that folk use for bookmarks and stuff, I mean the horrible Microsoft ribbons in MS Office. It's ugly, it's obscure, it's slow to find what you need, it sucks in general. What was wrong with the drop-down menus that Office used to have...
Many years ago, in my university days, I bought a set of encyclopaedias and I still have them today. They are handsome volumes and have a lot of helpful information yet new bound printed encyclopaedias are not in book shops anymore. What's happened? Has everything moved to electronic storage? I...
I prefer Edge over most other browsers because its implementation of Extensions works far better with YouTube content. When I run YouTube on Edge I see no ads, no annoying content that I didn't ask for, and it runs fast. It also scrolls far more smoothly when using my trackpad than does Chrome...
I have a Sony Vaio from 2011. It had 4 GB RAM, a 500GB HDD, and an i7 2620M. I recently upgraded its RAM to 8 GB and today I upgraded its HDD to a SSD of 500 GB. It's old HDD is now in an Inateck enclosure and I am using it as an external backup drive. The laptop is faster now. It boots in...
My desktop computer has a i7 2600K and 16 GB RAM and 500 GB SSD and two 1 TB HDDs and a "XFX HD5770 850M PCIe/1GB/DVI/HDMI" graphics card .... I bought it in 2011 for around AUD 1,364.75 and not I am wondering ought I to buy a new desktop PC? The one I have works well. Maybe it could do with a...
