My 20-year-old VX43-based watch has a battery life of over a year. It does everything a watch should do, and laughs at dumb-watches with their 1-2 day battery lives.
BeOS was pretty cool in it's day, but it's day was twenty years ago. I'm not trying to be sarcastic there, it really was a very nice OS when it was new, but after nearly twenty years it doesn't look so hot any more.
It's an extension to OpenType, which is a standard, that was developed by Apple, Microsoft, Adobe, and Google.
The "Google" bit is the important part. Chrome added support for this about a year ago, and following it's monkey see, monkey do policy of "innovation" for Chromefox, Mozilla has just finished copying them.
English wiring is actually far superior to the US, and has a few slight advantages over the rest of Europe.
... alongside a bunch of wacky English eccentricity like ring mains (created to save copper after WW2, and an endless source of entertainment since then), massive clunky individually fused plugs for which you never know what sort of fuse was swapped in as a quick fix when the original one blew (as opposed to relying on MCBs and GFCIs at the power board), and lots of other fun things.
While the UK still follows the ECHR, which admittedly it probably won't for much longer, it could be argued that prolonged imprisonment for refusing to reveal a password is a form of duress, article 3, and that imprisonment without trial runs up against article 6. Not sure how successful you'd be, but the ECtHR has been fairly flexible in how broadly they'll interpret article 3.
It's not just the Yoga. This is an ongoing part of Lenovo's train-wreck fucking up of the excellent Thinkpad keyboard. Every year they dream up new ways to fuck it up. Let's see, where shall we put the cursor keys this year? What about Ctrl, or PgUp/PgDown, we haven't moved those for awhile. And the function keys, let's replace them with LCD app-specific keys. And why not remove the Return key just for laughs? Yeah, that's it. And then next year we'll release a new model that undoes some of the fuckage and charge everyone twice as much for it.
They make some nice laptops, thanks to the ThinkPad lineage, but dear god Lenovo, LEAVE THE FUCKING KEYBOARD ALONE. IT DOESN'T NEED FIXING OR "IMPROVING". JUST LEAVE IT ALONE.
Also, in whose reality is $300 "cheap"? A cheap phone of roughly the same type is $100 or less, and an actually cheap phone, which is what'd be required for India where this one was pitched, is $20-30. $300 is an expensive phone. $800-1000 is a fucking expensive phone.
This is what an earlier poster was referring to with the observation that "the construction companies made some 'equivalent substitutions'". These sorts of shenanigans are SOP in Italian civil works projects, you just get used to it after awhile.
The Full Calatrava gives all the gory details. To his credit, it does list one single project that didn't go over budget or fail. However, although the Ponte Morandi is worthy of the likes of Calatrava or Frank Lloyd Wright, just the name "Ponte Morandi" tells you it was a Riccardo Morandi design, and he's no Calatrava. He's also been safely dead for several decades, so he can't be sued.
Not to mention that, with it's down-in-the-noise-level-and-still-falling market share, why would you bother devoting time and energy to it as a developer?
Oh dear God Mozilla, why don't you just put a gun to your head and pull the trigger instead of putting everyone through this years-long, agonising death spiral.

In any case they've fiddled with the images, there's no trace of the Plateau of Leng, the Isle of Oriab, or any signs of the Pabodie Expedition camp.
Every consider that the modern person just doesn't want to ride mass transit for their daily lives?
You missed one word:
Every consider that the modern US person just doesn't want to ride mass transit for their daily lives?
For some reason it seems to work really well in Europe, and (I assume) other countries like Canadia and Australalalasia, just not the US.

No, I'm Cowardicus!
I got 6 stars once. IÃ(TM)ll spare you the details.
Bruno, is that you? I'll tell you what, you were worth at least seven or eight stars.

Is small hole, no-one will notice. Break for borscht now, Vladimir?

Judge: Do you know what the penalty is for not complying with RIPA?
Accused: No, but I bet it's a lot less than the penalty for murder.

Africans came from Russia. I saw it on Russia Today, so it has to be true.
Also, doens't Pence know the Hugo's have already been announced? He's left his submission a bit late.
go on, define it
It's what's defined by the Wahhabi interpretation of the Holy Quran.
We'll start with Wyden's web site(s) and email. I think sharia law should be applied.

Surprising Exactly Nobody...
Well, OK, surprising the poor suckers who bought into this high-tech reinvention of the classic pump-and-dump I guess, but no-one else.
I think the OP was referring to George Washinton. OTOH he never needed any bridges.

Same here, there were old bugs in Palemoon that I hadn't seen in Firefox for years. Waterfox is quite nice.

Norway is going to move to Chicago?
If it gets that bad, Chicagoans are going to move to Norway. And they'll be bringing their pianos.
