Thanks guys!
Is that the difference. I had actually taken osnews.com out of my normal rotation a week or two ago and was blown away when I hit the site by accident just now.

I do like the change of coverage though. I think it would help if there were one or two more regular editors to mix it up a bit. I’ve always liked the idea of starting an original technical series, I have many neat ideas that I feel that could benefit osnews and attract broader interest.
Switched to aria2c for years. meh
