I always wanted to try OpenWRT but was put off by the necessity of doing hardware modifications to stock routers to gain root access. So naturally, once I found out that they were releasing some official hardware for OpenWRT (the OpenWRT On

I guess I'll have to buy the new Google TV Streamer because my previous Chromecast with Google TV 4K is now close to useless because of the lack of flash memory space after all the updates (despite it has a properly initialized USB dri

I remember how back in the day this particular feature had somewhat impressed me in this game.

This is a self-destructive license: prohibition of use for "warfare" and "weapons manufacturing" basically means that the author wants the world to be conquered by whatever bad guy is stronger. At which point it will be

Mainstream buyers are waiting for EVs that are not "weird cars", but simply normal cars that just happen to have EV drivetrains. We are getting there, but still slowly.
