| Kangaroos, despite having a leafy and fiber-rich diet, don’t expel gas by burping or flatulence. Instead, their bodies convert the methane into acetate, which is then used as energy.

Did you know that there are literally hundreds of Linux commands? Even on a bare-bones Linux server install there are easily over 1,000 different commands. The interesting thing is that most people only need to use a very small subset of those commands. I like to pride myself on my command line prowess, but there are really only about a hundred commands that I ever use and even fewer that I use on a daily basis.Click here to download | |

Taptic Engine | |
| The Taptic Engine is Apple’s haptic feedback feature on newer devices that is capable of “tapping” a user on their wrist, creating a unique type of vibration to get a user’s attention, and even simulating clicks on Mac trackpads. | |

| The Nintendo 64 was the first home game console that featured a mini-joystick, or “thumbstick,” on the controller for 3D motion. But the console is now over two decades old, and while the cartridge-based hardware is practically indestructible compared to modern consoles, the same can’t be said for that thumbstick. Even with Nintendo’s generally high-quality materials, the N64 analog stick is prone to loosening and drifting. | |

| Snapchat, by its very nature, makes it very hard to deal with abuse. Unlike Facebook posts or Tweets, Snaps vanish in seconds and aren't stored on Snapchat's servers. If someone is posting something that violates Snapchat's Terms of Service to their Story, it will stick around for 24 hours but that's it. If a Snap is gone and it's your word against someone else's, there's not a lot the Snapchat review team can do. | |

| If you want to make your home a little smarter, but aren’t sure where exactly to start, we’ve got you covered. Here are the best starter smarthome gadgets, and how to find ones that will work well together in your house (or apartment). | |

| Whether it is just a matter of curiosity or a genuine need to know before adjusting the size of the file on your own computer, just how large can a Windows page file actually be? Today’s SuperUser Q&A post has the answer to a curious reader’s question. | |

| When positioning most security cameras, it takes some time and a bit of trial and error to get them set up perfectly. However, Netgear has added some features that makes the setup process a lot easier for its Arlo cameras. | |
|
| Google’s annual developer conference, Google I/O, is happening now in Mountain View, California. The company unloaded a slew of new features at the keynote, and we’ve been sifting through the debris to find the coolest stuff worth talking about. | |
|
| Ever wish you could run macOS and Windows software, side by side, arranging windows from each operating system however you like? Thanks to a feature in Parallels called Coherence Mode, which you can use if you’ve set up Parallels to run Windows inside macOS, it’s only a click away. | |
|
| The Check Engine light on your car is both useful and infuriating. You know something is wrong (which is good!), but you don’t know what. Rather than taking your car all the way down to your mechanic, you can get a pretty good idea what’s wrong with your car with a simple OBD-II adapter. | |
|
| Android "O" is the upcoming version of Google’s mobile operating system, but you don't have to wait until the release date to get your hands on the latest and greatest features. If you have a compatible Nexus or Pixel device, you can install the developer preview of Android O right now. | |
|
| Whenever you plan a new purchase, you want to make sure you’re buying it at an ideal time—nobody wants to be the sucker who put a down payment on that brand new sports car a month before it was replaced with a new model. So it is with PC monitors…albeit on a slightly smaller scale. So, is now (summer 2017) a good time to purchase one or more for that perfect desktop setup? | |
|

|
| Not everyone is model pretty and capable of posing perfectly on a split second's notice. For most mere mortals, photographs can be a risky business. If you're caught mid-word, after a few drinks or, God forbid, while you're dancing, no amount of work in Photoshop can ever save the photo. | |
