I don't think anyone in this subforum is trying to post "content" with the exception of Mafia maybe.

I already asked about the "repair" option in a different thread, so I'm going to use this for phone buying advice if you don't mind. I'm not much of a power user (my current phone is from 2013) and I generally like it (unlike some of the trends in smarphones lately), so basically I'd want ...

But then how does such a setup negotiate small radii? It doesn't. Most roads from the interstate to the RV Park allow for wide turns. You Americans and your incredibly spacious infrastructure... I don't know the exact physics of it, but my understanding is that the wheels follow the path of least r...

Wheels are allowed to turn freely. Nothing special needs to be done. But then how does such a setup negotiate small radii? Do the front wheels turn to follow the RV due to something (maybe the caster angle?) or do they just have a large side-slip in tight corners like the wheels of a semi-trailer ?...

About five minutes ago I watched a dashcam video of an RV rolling over due to a tyre blowout and learned that it's somehow possible to tow a car behind an RV like this: https://winnebagolife.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/IMG_3314.JPG.jpg The only question none of the articles titled "Three way...

Every Windows 10 update is pushing me closer to wiping the damn thing and installing Linux instead. I recommend that you start playing around on an older PC or in a VM.

The theme song of Bojack Horseman works well as a driving song. I also found this Born to Die remix recently.

The amplifier I bought recently and spent so much money on having repaired developed a new fault. Never mind, I still have the previous amp... oh, the little plastic tab broke off the speaker connector.

Timezone idea: use UTC everywhere, since wide timezones like CET and that daylight saving nonsense means clock time isn't related to sunlight hours anyway.

...huh.
I literally have no idea what the joke's supposed to be.

Don't forget the leptons. And the gauge and scalar bosons. If it weren't for the gluon, all those quarks would just fly apart.
I hope the field has a fence around it.

How do you put a fence around the strong field?

I know roundabouts are all the rage these days, but this is ridiculous.

There are circumstances (though rare (and now, even moreso)) where sales tax may be deductible from your gross income when computing your Federal Income tax liability. There are hoops to jump through and "proof" that of how much yuo paid to which entity is one of them. A receipt itemizing...

If the idea of "painting" was mentally locked into being "creating a painting of" rather than the option of being "applying paint to", then it would be somewhat absurd. (Wanting to paint, say, a mural of their sidecars and leaving out the bikes themselves would be a st...

Oh, a rather noobish question popped into my mind. Installing a new OS will no doubt erase all data from the phone, can I access backups on my Google drive afterwards?

Planned obsolescence is pretty much the only reason they stop supporting old phones. Maybe I should become ruler of the world only to outlaw this nonsense. Personally, I've been running LineageOS 14.1 (Android 7.1) on my HTC One m7 for a good while now, and it's a nice, clean OS. It's available for...

Well, you know two rights sometimes make a wrong, and three of them always make a left.

If this makes sense to you, you should probably see a doctor

I'm going to France in a couple weeks, and since I like learning languages, I was wondering what the best way is to pick up some basic French. Are there online resources for this? Should I get a French textbook? Or one of those "Learn French" cassettes?

I've been using my Samsung GT-I8730 for four years now, and I've been mostly satisfied with the experience. However, Samsung abandoned support for this phone a long while ago and I've been running into the issue of apps not being compatible with the Android 4.1.2 running on my phone. I'm somewhat re...
