Laser burning a barcode on an avocado skin will pollute the air with more CO2, you insensitive clod!

...it remembered to me that I have to renew my car insurance.

It self destroys by design, hackers don't have enough time to compromise the phone.

you, insensitive clod!

Call me old fashioned (and it wouldn't be the first time), but I prefer my faithful ASR-33 connected to a Fidonet node, thank you.

now would be a great time to start deploying Linux on the desktop.

It is also a great time to start coding a Linux ransomware...be prepared! You can be the first!

Totally agree. I never used that crap, I will drop Opera without regret. I am actually in love with Puffin browser for Android, too bad it is not yet available for Windows.

From the headline:

Intel first became the world's largest chipmaker back in 1993 and has held the title ever since. But as the mobile market has exploded...

...the baloon crash-landed in an unexpected way. Further examination revealed that the baloon succesfully captured some spherical particles of about 1mm diameter, that were so energetic (energy has been estimated in the TeV range), to pierce the baloon causing it to deflate. Mass-spectrometry analysis of the strange particles revealed that they are made of lead, with some traces of antimony and arsenic.

NASA scientists are puzzled, because this kind of particles weren't supposed to exist in space, at least according to current cosmological theories, and they are now busy trying to modify current models of star evolution to explain the presence of lead in space. An unidentified source suggested a terrestrial origin for the particles, but it has vigorously denied by a NASA spokeperson.

...the launch of Wikitribune has been dismissed as a fake news by Jimmy Wales itself.

Amateur radio licenses vs. population. Apart Japan (where aged people represent most of the population - ham radio is mostly a hobby for old people), France, Germany, Italy and other industrialized countries show a negligible interest into ham radio. Together with the results described in TFA, one could argue that wasting time into social media isn't a good way to be productive.

...now cosmonauts have to worry about FEDOR's attitude and software glitches ?

There is this statement in the linked work by Nguyen et al: "Our paper was identified as the 63rd most talked about scientific paper worldwide in 2015 (source: alt metrics). It was also selected for Oral presentation at CVPR (3% acceptance rate) and received a Community Top Paper award. ".

Results about the paper metric seem to have been automatically generated by some AI software. I wonder if they fooled this as well...

I second this. Please give us a black background. Possibly also with a dark foreground.

Nerd sniping. You don't ever need a smartphone!
