And basically all passender accessible areas have a view to the outside. (Except the cheaper cabins which you want to avoid if you have a tendency towards motion sickness)

I can tell from my cruise experience that I could feel a slight vertigo comming up the smaller the room was. Noticeable in the (windowless) cabin, and starting to become slightly unpleaseant in the shower. It helped imaging the whole ship rolling on the ocean to help my brain explain the motion felt.

I'd dare you put that to a test.

even when not looking out of the window, they give you a visual link to the outside as a point of reference for your sense of motion. Being put in a small room that itself is moving is one of the best ways to induce nausea.

Have you ever travelled with a recent plane? They usually have individual monitors you can turn of. And much more recent movies than they used to have to 20 years ago.

You're missing a "1". according to wikipiedia, trains in the US max out at 150mph, in europe closer to 180mph

So I can't use Apple pay until by bank supports it?

and how do these $10 compare to your annual credit card fee?

I guess that's why it is the most popular payment method in Europe? Without any hacking problems and neglectible fraud compared to credit cards?

Yes. Compared to magstripes. But is anyone still using them?

OK. Thanks for the clarification.

Why would you decide to use UST-to-Serial chips that need vendor specific drivers in the first place? That's a basic usb profile that should be handled with generic drivers.

Largely reduces such unpleaseant surprises.

So they moved other chips into a PID range that doesn't belong to them?

Which is intresting as this is exactly what they were complaining about. Sort of "it's not illegal if WE do it"...

Like we don't have an agreement or licensing or other kind of contratc that I will NOT burn down your house or otherwise cause damage to you or your property.

But that does NOT give me the right to burn down your house.

We're talking about intentionally damaging a device.

It would be a different matter for unintentional damage after someone uses your product , but even then you have to apply a sensible measure of care to avoid damage through wrong or careless handling. (A warning label is the simplest measure, selling bleach in bottles with a child-proof lock another one)

In related news. DEA to facebook: Who cares?

The same kind of protagonists are performing the same schtick in the US and in Europe.

STEM is called MINT, skill gap is Fachkräftemangel, and H1B is called "blue card" (yes. someone mixed up work permit and permanent residency when looking for a catchy name)

Arguments are the same, debate is the same.

And it becomes slightly absurd when immigration officers at a US border somehow expect every other country but the US to be a 3rd world hole people would be happy to trade in for a McJob in the US of A. They can't even imagine that someone likes their job and their home country and actually WANTS to go home after their visit.
