It was a lot more than just London getting bombed in WW2. It would be much easier to list the cities that weren't bombed, basically just Cambridge.

And a substantial proportion of the country was away fighting in that war. How do you arrange for them to vote, and get the votes back to the counting centres securely. How do you arrange polling stations when you don't know whether they are going to end up being a pile of rubble by election day? How do you arrange hustings/town halls with the candidates when they are going to become a military target for the enemy?

You definitely couldn't hold elections in Gaza right now.

It was an unfortunately necessary thing. You can't hold a fair election in the middle of a war zone.

Same thing happened in the UK. The 1916 election was cancelled due to WW1 and we had to wait until after the war ended in 1918.
Then the 1940 election was cancelled due to WW2 and we had to wait until 1945.

Ukrainian governments have been removed from office as a result of an election defeat. That has never happened in Russia.

Ukranian *people* are just like anyone else. Some of them are criminals, most are decent people.
Same for Russia, the difference is in their Government.

Yes, everyone uses WhatsApp, so the blue/green bubble thing just isn’t a problem.

Slashdot is somewhat broken in this browser.
My own websites, which use the Vue3 framework are completely broken. The work just fine in Chrome/Firefox/Edge on Windows, Safari/Firefox/Chrome on Mac, Firefox/Chromium on FreeBSD, Firefox/Chrome on Linux, Chrome on Android and Safari on iOS+iPadOS. They don't work on Safari for iOS 12 on an iPhone 6+.

Chromium is based on Webkit (Safari) which is based on khtml (Konqueror). So there are some browsers further up the fork tree.

The Gnome Web Browser uses Webkit, so that is your Linux option, there are others.

It was patented by Ralph Merkle in 1979 [US4309569A], and the patent expired in 1999.

Nope, AI is what is deciding to ignore "indoor" to give you more search results.

I would argue that it has recently, because my search results tend to be complete garbage, worse than Altavista was before Google stomped all over them.

I think this would be a reliable citation?

In the UK, both are the same, because both get their transit data feeds from https://www.bus-data.dft.gov.u...

Would they though?
I'm not sure how it works in the US, but here in the UK, I pay a monthly fee for unlimited calls, and the only difference between the call plans available is the amount and speed of internet data you get.
So ideally, my phone company would want me to make zero voice calls.
