There is a bill, it is paid, too. Russians leave a LOT of papertrail on all their operations, including military and secret service, you just can't always see (aren't allowed to see) the papers.

You get what you're paying for. Choosing hosting providers mainly by their price, will get you to the cheapest one. Guess how they make it cheap? By cutting on staff (also by moving the data center to a country with lower wages) and ha

The statement about battery not being replaceable is false. They are replaceable. But the phone body is sealed to deliver the water and dust resistance rating from its technical specs, so opening it is an entire new adventure in itself.

This is about locus of control: if twitter wants to do something about users hopping to and using a competitive platform, can they change some settings in twitter? Yes they can. Can they stop users activity on Mastodon or force them back? N

Believing that they are uncorrupt by the government secret services is naive. Everything in Russia of any value has eyes of secret govt service on it. If the state men ask you for cooperation, you cannot say no, or your life as a person wil

Hair trimmer set to shortest length will make your face like shaven 2 days ago. Costs nothing. Needs no foam, no aftershave gel, creates no irritation or red skin, just splash of water and optional facial creme. My condolences to those who

Virtual machines use pointer tagging in least significant bits, as most of the data is 4x or 8x byte aligned, and you can assume that zeroing those bits will always give you a safe correct pointer value. And the tag bits can instruct the co

It is not worth $5.7B, don't multiply huge amounts of shares, stocks, or coins by their market value, as it is impossible to cash out at that price. If he tries to do large sell orders it will sink to 1-10% of its current price.
