Some of these banned pesticides continue to be used around the world, especially in developing countries. This is due to various factors, including a lack of awareness about dangers as well as insufficient regulation and enforcement of existing laws in these nations. In m...

And truthfully, most people use them interchangeably. But if you want to understand how your laptop juggles 10 Chrome tabs and a Zoom call without breaking a sweat, it helps to know the difference. This post breaks it down in simple terms: what RAM and DRAM are, why your devices need them, and why your phone slows to a crawl when memory gets tight. What Is RAM? RAM—Random Access Memory—is your computer’s short-term memory. It temporarily stores the data and instructions your CPU needs right now . Think of it as your digital workspace: the bigger the desk, the more tools you can spread out without clutter. When your RAM is full, your system starts panicking. It tries to swap data with your hard drive (slower storage), and that’s when things lag. A spinning cursor. A frozen tab. A mild existential crisis. DRAM: Th...

Rabbit keeping in Kenya Information just in is that rabbit meat in Kenya will soon be big business. There are international orders running in tonnes. According to a recent article in the press, even if all the rabbits in Kenya are slaughtered, Kenya cannot meet the demand of only one country—France. This means that there is great potential in this form of animal husbandry because soon Kenyans will have a taste for rabbit meat and there will not be enough to go around, unless, of course, more people start keeping them for profit. When compared to chickens, rabbits have a wide range of food. Besides the commercial pellets, which they must be fed on if they are to gain the much-needed weight, rabbits will also eat kale, cabbage, sweet potato vines, pods from peas, and many other greens that are seen as weeds in the gardens. I give my rabbits the waste from vegetable vendors to supplement the pellets too and the variety is enormous. You need to be careful with this 'w...
