Reveal which company it was, name and shame! Force them to publicly apologize! It’s not defamation if she can prove the discrimination in writing, and I’m not a lawyer but pretty sure legal precedent is in her favor.

If you have a recent phone, websites and PWAs are about as fast as native apps. I’m using a 2014 flagship Sony Xperia Z that came out with Android 4.4 and can barely run Android 13 — it will overheat and sytem UI (thankfully not apps) will restart if rendering stuff for too long. (The difference is staggering: basic old apps like Phyphox and static websites run indefinitely. Modern apps or JS-enabled pages like Voyager or 480p30 video for 10 minutes. Post-modern bloated crap or 720p30 video, 4 minutes. Imgur, new Reddit and 1080p video turn the phone into a hand warmer immediately and the framerate goes from 15 to <1 in 10 seconds, followed by a slew of ANRs and the battery percentage going down every 20^th frame rendered. Should I have applied more heatsink compound after replacing the battery? Yes but I’d argue no app with a simple purpose and basic GUI should require 5 W to the CPU while running at half rate.)

This does not affect people without Google Play Services so why complain? We need fewer reasons for people to buy Apple products so that devs are more inclined to build good native Android apps.

This is why I see it as a mild positive for us. For normal users, it’s another step away from privacy and security towards convenience that they will accept. Yes, some will see this on-by-default feature and think “no privacy is possible anymore” but that’s best solved by GrapheneOS etc. becoming more visible.

My CPU lasted longer than the sticker (it’s a laptop)

This happens so often I instinctively press ⌫, C, Z when I see this specific list.

“What do you mean you can’t play games with it, son? When I had this in high school, I got invited to every LAN party and got free drinks.”

Scrolling through 200 items is easier on a phone than a desktop without PgUp/PgDn.

Or (A)llemagne, (N)iemcy, (T)yskland, (S)aksa, (V)asija (you won’t encounter the last two unless you use a website in Finnish or Estonian, however the first three are used in numerous countries including Germany’s neighbors).
The lists are occasionally auto-translated, sometimes I see “🇹🇷 Truthahn”.

I imagine the Australian embassy in Vienna already has forms to handle the situation, and so does the Austrian one in Canberra.

It’s not about the money¹. He only cares about free speech² and preserving democracy³.

¹ It is but money is not the primary goal. It is ego, then freed- nope, money is second. Yes, he fucked up with the money but not his fault, right? It’s the bots, and once they get kicked¹⁻¹, the value skyrockets.
¹⁻¹ No promises!
² as long as it aligns with his political goals
³ rights to election interference, algorithm adjustmentss and selective moderation reserved

People “desperate for any job” are actually desperate for money and willing to work for it. They won’t take an unpaid position, what are you thinking?

I don’t think these positions will remain empty. Corporations will send a few lobbyists to check if the cost/power ratio is beneficial and if so, just flood the department.

I know, this one is shorter and has mechanical brakes. Not as great but I imagine the Czech one, one of the largest in Europe, has very few English-language sources that could have pointed it out to him. I don’t know whether the Claughton one cannot be ridden or Tom is just squeamish about safety (see description) but the Černý Důl one definitely can, that’s how they do routine inspections.

That is not the problem. Politicians should often be forward-thinking. In the US, failure to plan more than 2 years ahead is a huge detriment to infrastructure funding. Of course, central long-term planning à la USSR that does not consider market developments is an example of how wrong the opposite extreme can go.

You don’t want the Dutch scenario to happen. Children as young as 6 are joining bike gangs that hog half the trail width and don’t bother to step down in pedestrian zones!

Sorry, they reserve the right to implant and delete memories in Section 4.4.2 of the EULA.

Given who Trump considers worthy of detention, the centers will have to be near major cities.

An early version of the Petřín ropeway in Prague used to contain tanks in both cars. The upper one would be filled with sewage collected rainwater from the city’s hilltop quarter and the energy of the descent was used to pull the other car up. Additionally, the way up cost twice as much so there was an incentive to ascend on foot, which was about as fast despite the incline.
