  1. You obviously did not read the article. It has nothing to do with EU taxes.

  2. Re:Again. on Samsung Says It's Working On Foldable Laptop Displays (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    If Apple ever comes out with a foldable display, you can be pretty certain they will source it from Samsung.

    Because most countries use representative democracy. And if you cannot be bothered to understand that, you shouldn't even be allowed to vote.


  5. <p>2. Apple's notch is not "Ridiculous"; because it is there for a purpose. what is TRULY "Ridiculous", however, is all the Android phones that slavishly COPIED Apple (yet again!) and their "Ridiculous" Notch, <i>even though they don't actually NEED it!</i></p></quote>

    The first phone with a notch was..... an Android phone: the Essential Phone was announced in May 2017, a few months before the X.

    I have to partially disagree: The Empire Strikes Back was a worthy sequel.

    Seconded. We were in Lisbon two weeks ago. I installed a public transport routing app (CityMapper) and we got daily passes. We favoured the above-ground transport (buses, trams, etc) and we got to enjoy the city a lot more than we would have if we'd used the underground or a taxi. Walked a lot too.

    You mention Mode X and a single segment: that is not entirely correct. The original VGA had 256KB of RAM and Mode X used a "planar" approach with a single byte affecting 4 pixels.
