Since 2015 the metal platinum is significantly cheaper than gold. It is a broken metaphor, right at the top foundation, so no wonder that the Linux OS, at least the desktop, is also kind of broken.
The classic telephone system is hopelessly outdated. It turned into a spam-town.
Please, if you need to call me for the first time, send me an SMS, or WhatsUp, or e-mail message first with a short explanation of the topic. I pick up a phone call only from phone numbers in my contacts.
Well you burn a bit more energy cycling instead of driving, but its not that much.
Cycling at a moderate pace burns about 650 calories per hour.
A large doughnut can contain about 300 calories, and also hydrogenated oils that are not good for your heart.
A biological system does not work on arithmetic principles. Cycling every day, before and after work in the fresh air, reduces anxiety. It is the proven fact.
People over-eat not because they are hungry, but due to anxiety. And the major cause of anxiety is that we engineered out physical activity from our daily life.
Try it, and you will see that one and a half hour cycling daily would reduce stress and weight significantly. But daily on cycling paths, not driving to a gym and rotating a stationary machine.
It is clear that a product have got also a unique article number. But the data is used by many actors, including browser and mobile apps in different human languages.
Double space also influences sorting. At least, in some existing commercial ERP software.
I do not argue that sorting and search algorytms can be re-written. But we had one certain thing about a human language, - that the words are separated with a space, with one space. Now even this will be gone.
There are different kind of searches. For example, we have got a database with six million product titles. Suddenly we may get two identical to human eye titles, but which differ just by a single, almost unnoticeable, space. Or two spaces, or three.
This should be a precise search, I have to find exactly the title, which I need. No error is allowed.
Certainly, I can solve this programmatically. But why to add more entropy, more disorder, more lack of predictability into the human language, which is a mess even without it.
I would like just point out that the Latin script also originated from the Ancient Greek: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
"Latin or Roman script is a set of graphic signs (script) based on the letters of the classical Latin alphabet, which is derived from a form of the Cumaean Greek version of the Greek alphabet, used by the Etruscans."
Bolshevics, and their leader Vladimir Lenin, planed to switch to Latin alphabet for all languages of the Soviet Union:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Actually they did it for the Kazakh language in 20s, but finally it was returned back to Cyrillic.
Both, Cyrillic and Latin alphabet originated from the Ancient Greek alphabet. Cyrillic though remained a bit closer to it.
Nowadays a printer can print in any alphabet. So there will be no economy on typewriters as there could be in the early 20th century.
Image wise, in my opinion, they will not make themselves to look like the US or a rich European country, but rather like a country of say Latin America.
What may happen is that people would follow this example and start introducing their own private sanctions. It may hurt international commerce, global division of labor, ideas and goods exchange.
Any country has hot historical issues and problems, including the USA. For example, it has been a segregated land just several decades ago. Edward Snowden and Lindsay Mills cannot return home for years. Julian Assange has to seat in a small room for five years without fresh air due to the fear of being extradited to the US. And so on and so forth.
In Russia the serfdom was abolished only in 1861. It has been 90%+ illiterate still in early 20th century. There is no official censorship in Russia just for twenty years, for the first time in history. Certainly, it cannot be perfect or exceptional yet, the same as the USA, or any other country for that matter.
I think, however, that these problems and issues shall not be used to mock or to destabilize a land.
I understand that factories need new orders, and that trumps are required for a political theater.
But, please, remember that there are millions and millions of Russian speaking people who have nothing to do with any form of a political populism. And for whom it is becoming not funny.
Building green highways, a comprehensive network of cycling paths completely free from motorized traffic, would radically transform pharmaceutic and healthcare industries.
... create your own content portal or find another one that feels you are a good fit...
It's impossible to create your own content portal like YouTube, because creating an organization like this requires thousands of qualified specialists, billions of investment into infrastructure and promotion, governmental support on external markets, and so on and so forth.
So it does have certain responsibility towards its content creators, society in general, including international community.
Improving security is a good idea, however in the statement there is not a word about its content policies. Quite a few YouTube "celebreties" produce clickbait content and become "rich" and "famous".
In my opinion, YouTube shoud do more to encourage production of meaningful conent.
Slashdot Mirror
start reading fake news.
It is true, still the Third Reich rockets did not fly into space. Not even close. And the Sturmgewehr was not a reliable system at all.
Yes, there was a significant contribution, but the input of Soviet and American engineers and scientists shall not be underestimated.

I did not get it. Was it female or male employee?
I looked up in the WIkipedia: Fraternization (from Latin frater, brother) is "turning people into brothers".
What "non-fraternization policy" may mean?
I own the Huawei phone. It is my second Huawei phone. The first I dropped on literally the granite rock in the mountains and broke the glass a bit.
It is an excellent phone, 2 - 3 times cheaper, but with the sames specs or better.

The EU should create laws in such a way that we are spared from the spam.
Was it difficult to include a clause in the law forbidding mass sending of e-mails?

If a person cycles to work about 40 minutes on a safe green bicycle path, and back home 40 minutes. She/he can eat about anything.
In my parts about any political force is using shills on forums and even at physical manifestations. Did not democrats use them?
If not, it is very nice of them, but a bit naive.
It is clear that a product have got also a unique article number. But the data is used by many actors, including browser and mobile apps in different human languages.
Oh, look at that.... Slashdot replaces double-space after period with single space. ...
It is not Slashdot. It is a browser and the HTML. Two or three spaces are always one in the browser https://stackoverflow.com/ques...
So a client of an Internet shop sees always one space, and it is confusing for her/him why the product does not sort properly.
In fact, I had a lot of problems with these multiple spaces coming with product titles from suppliers. And I do not work only with English language.
Double space also influences sorting. At least, in some existing commercial ERP software.
I do not argue that sorting and search algorytms can be re-written. But we had one certain thing about a human language, - that the words are separated with a space, with one space. Now even this will be gone.

One space should be used between words. Otherwise, it may cause unexpected problems with search, sorting, etc.

Because a cityful of people cycling to work in the rain and the cold would be highly profitable for them.
It is not fresh air or rain what is dangerous for health. It is obesity.

is paved with failures.
Imagine freeing the roads from 50% of traffic, which is dealing with one or another form of delivery.
