Ireland have setup an escrow account. (due to legalities around this, this took some time). apple have lodged the money plus the interest into this escrow account.
While Ireland owns the account, it cannot touch the money. However, apple's 'debt' is paid at this point (so no more interest is owning on this).
What happens next is various court cases and appeals. Funnily, if Ireland _loses_ these court cases, then it gets all that money. If Ireland ultimately win, apple gets all the money back.
So I'm hoping Ireland lose so that we'll have a few extra billion to do something good with. Too many planned projects have been cancelled here due to lack of funds. We could do a lot with that cash.
Profits earned from apple products sold in all EU countries were routed through Ireland, thus a phone sold in France was, according to the books, sold from Ireland.
"In February 2017, Musk proclaimed that two individuals had each put down a "significant deposit" to fly around the Moon on SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket,"
Elon confirmed in the Q&A that the 2 individuals were Yusaku Maezawa and someone else he was going to bring, and then spoke about how the Crew Dragon would really only hold 2 people comfortably for this trip (as it's about the same size inside as an SUV), and that by using BFS, more people are able to go. Musk mentioned maybe a dozen, whereas Yusaku had earlier mentioned about 6-8. So likely the other person was to be an artist, but with BFR and BFS he can take several artists.
We moved to BlueJeans some time ago, so all calls like this are now multi-participant video conference calls. When someone is talking, you can see them talking (or, where they elect to not share video, you can still see their name). Yes, it likely still has some of the same issues that conference calls can have, but many are mitigated, and when you have people all around the world it can be the only way (apart from flying everyone in to one place, for a 1 hour meeting) to get everyone together.
So, yes, end conference phone calls, and join the video conference call evolution.
With a eye resolution of 1 arc-second, you won't be able to tell the difference between 4k and 8k (and likely normally 2k / 1080p) at normal watching distance on these TVs. You'd need to be sitting less than a half meter (or about 1.5 feet) from your 88" screen to see the difference. At a normal distance of 3m, your eye physically cannot see the resolution difference -- the fovea just didn't have enough receptors. If 8K brings in a better colour gamut, like 4k did, then you might notice that (which is why you can tell the difference between 4k and 1080p from across the store -- the colours are typically better on a 4k screen). But resolution-wise it's just wasted pixels.
I use Google Authenticator on my phone for my MFA needs. I think I'm more likely to notice my phone going missing than I am to notice a small usb key going missing, and I'm also more likely to remember to bring my phone wherever I'm going.
So I think I'll just stick with using my phone and save the $50.
Surely the OS is providing standard access to every FS, so from an application perspective everything looks the same. So why is it a problem for applications to support ext4 and btrfs when, via the OS, they should look the same?
fopen() will still work, regardless, surely... no?
As a geek and a nerd, I love that show. It always makes me laugh. So, yeah, I'm sad that's it's ending. I think the use of the term "is finally ending" is harsh. Makes be dislike the Guardian's writer. If he didn't like the site, he didn't have to watch it. But lots of us love the show.
Most company cafeterias are subsided so that lunch doesn't cost of lot of money for the employees. Some companies go so far as to provide free food.
By forcing employee to go out, it will cost these employees more money. Likely more employees will just bring in lunch, being they won't even have the excuse of going to the cafeteria to have lunch -- they just eat at their desks. So you'll get not-many-more employees going out for lunch, those that do being out of pocket, and those that don't having less movement in the day.
IANAL, but does blocking these violate the 1st and 2nd to the US Constitution?
I'm not saying I want them to be released, but can they actually be blocked in the US?
One wonders if stuff like this could be used to force through changes to the constitution, esp. repealing the 2nd amendment (a good thing IMHO), but also changing the 1st negatively .
Give me 90 degree corners (not rounded ones), a 16:9 screen, and bezels instead of notches where needed. I want a big screen, and want to see and use all of it.
Many designs for phones these days just making them annoying to use.
Sony got the right idea with the XZ2 Premium. I wish more manufacturers would go back to that. Stop making the phone "pretty", and make it fully usable.
I was thinking the same. The argument is probably that a high enough percentage of people have them that they don't care about the others, and would likely just refund you the money and tell you you can't go. It would piss off those few people, but it's a small enough number that they would reckon it doesn't little to no harm to their business.

Obviously tachyons -- since they travel backwards through time they would be observed as traveling upwards.

The title is misleading.

Or use a different program to access Dropbox. Many File Manager apps will handle the various cloud providers. I use X-plore to access all of them.

Use the 2nd link for a longer article. It lists a few sites that use it (facebook and twitter being in there, along with Google)

You can always statically compile your libraries in, especially those that might end up being problematic.

Will this finally put an end to all-white web pages, hopefully? And give us a less eye-straining Internet.

No, in Michael Palin's.

Unfortunately.
