Windows 10 Upgrade Discussion: Compatibility and Features
Okay, got a question. How good is the Windows firewall? My free period of antivirus software is expiring and I've been looking at Avast Free, well at least it's reviews, but it doesn't come with a firewall, so am wondering if i could manage with Windows inbuilt one. Thanks for any answers.- Rocco the Stiff

I just watched the movie The Martian, is it possible?
Oh right, thanks...i totally forgot about the packaged "thing" he added. I remember now, he even made a joke when he smelled someone's remains. :D Next question would be, is that enough? I mean, on Earth fertilizer is also used but with the addition of soil already having access to different...- Rocco the Stiff

So, basically, i need a bigger mass and...- Rocco the Stiff
