Can you please explain how it is the job of western countries to bring such things to African countries, if they can just do it themselves? I'm sure you're also aware of the many efforts that are already doing this and have been doing so for decades.
Or are you arguing that inhabitants of African countries lack the ability to do this themselves?
Is the goal to have a 50% female workforce even though there's almost no chance of that happening in terms of interest in the general population for the foreseeable future so they'll have to resort to lowering standards or upping hires for more diversity officers and other nontech positions basically defeating the supposed reason they're concerned?
Yes.
What happens if they overshoot the goal and men dip under 50%.
Nothing.
Are they just going to not care and ignore it like for how women now earn significantly more college degrees and dominate middle bureaucratic management and nobody gives a crap?
Yes, but they'll find some other metric to complain about.
OsmAnd~ is pretty good these days. It's still not necessarily trivial to find everything you need quickly because it's often buried in inconsistent layers of menus but it can be learned. Great for offline navigation.
Windows are as tough as they need to be. Probably stronger than the fuselage.
Do you really think screens with their zero parallax, low dynamic range and inevitably low frame rates are going to come close to actually looking out of a window at altitude?
Perhaps these crazy muslims just don't want you to get an idea of the true scale of the world. Maybe they'll show a nice flat-earth map instead.
Sure, coal is still used in some developing nations for generating electricity. The point here is that it doesn't have to. You can charge your EV with wind, solar, hydro, nuclear or any other method of power generation that you can get to your house. With ICE it's fossil fuels or bust - you don't get a choice.

Racist?
I'm struggling to understand your comment.

They should probably team up with someone like these guys. We get our meat and beer back and the planet stops warming up so fast.
Everyone wins.
You forgot "Userless".
Because silly dogma that gullible people fall for is just misunderstood? Got it.
I have some pamphlets you might be interested in.
Somehow that seems worse than dumping it in a big hole.
In other words you are indoctrinated with trivially refuted nonsense that's even less plausible than other world religions.
But it's all okay because it doesn't mention the G word.
Observational data suggests that regularly practising Yoga strongly correlates with elevated levels of douchebaggery.
Damn, where are my stones, I mean, mod points?
...correctly deleted?
... and you went with Microsoft?
What has that got to do with anything, unless you live in a desert?

Hope that helps.

We have those, and have had them for some years.
In both supermarkets and department stores.
I detest and avoid them.
Stuff this corporate spying nonsense.
A lot of the more sensible investment schemes have already heavily divested from fossil fuels, so they won't be directly affected by such a crash.
You made no attempt to explain why the GP (who could very well be right) might be wrong.
You contributed nothing to the discussion.
Windows and MacOS are for amateurs.
I'm more interested in how OpenSUSE+btrfs managed to fare so much worse than Fedora+ext4 on the same hardware.
A misconfiguration perhaps?
Then how the hell did it get anywhere near a patent office?

Well, time to contribute more to the Open Source FlightGear and put these jackasses out of business.
OpenGL and OpenCL.
Legacy.
This should be used as exhibit A any time someone tries to cast doubt over whether Apple have gone completely fucking batshit loco.
Oh you mean like the Samsung Gear watches? Got it.

Well at least with the popularization of hashtags Americans have finally progressed beyond calling # a 'pound'.
It would have made the #metoo campaign a little... awkward.
