Oh , and 5G with 1 bar of signal is exactly the same as no signal.
Put it in airplane mode to save the battery and not burn my hand.

I can always tell when my iPhone has switched to 5G, it gets a really hot spot on the back and battery drains at a ridiculous rate.

Extinction is the first Liberal party policy I could actually vote for.
David Speers “what does it mean to be a Liberal today?”

The so-called scenic railway.
What a massive disappointment.
If you get booked in car 1, cancel and demand your money back.
Why they even sell these tickets is a scam.

Untouched by looters.
Until now.

Untouched by looters and sealed for centuries, the sarcophagus was found with its stone lid still fixed in place, secured by metal clamps and molten lead. When researchers carefully lifted the lid, they uncovered a complete skeleton surrounded by dozens of artifacts.
Archaeologists lift the lid on a 1,700-year-old Roman sarcophagus hidden beneath Budapest
Archaeologists in Budapest have unearthed a well-preserved Roman sarcophagus, revealing insights into the life of a young woman from 1,700 years ago.

Imagine working in an organisation where the most senior executive micro manages both the board and senior managers that report to the board.
That person’s only qualification to hold the position is that they fucked the founder.
If that sounds bad, you have no idea how bad.

This always reminds me of the mainly conservative businesses I’ve worked at where any failure was just about unforgivable. Any proposal had to have cast iron guarantee of costs & benefits.
We never innovated in those situations. Achieved easy goals & adequate results were very acceptable.

Shame the Pullman brand has gone off every where we’ve stayed.
It was always our favourite.
Poolside bar, got pool towels?

Or you could give a fuck and call to bring you some before I even got here, ffs.

4. Planning to do same to innocent animal just for fun
A perfect storm.

Fun fact, if you jam a USB-C plug into a micro usb port it totally destroys the port and you have no option but to discard the device that now has no way to be recharged.

The very worst app feature requirement is, “everyone else does it” without proper justification of utility in the context of this app and what users ask for.
"Find friends by phone" is a common tool in social networks. We're proposing a secure scheme and requesting comments from the dev community.
Goals:
・Double opt-in: you're not findable by your phone unless YOU use the tool
・Secure to enumeration attacks
・Resistant to decryption if compromised
