40th anniversary?
What is it commemorating, the animated series from the 70s?
The TV show begain in the 60s so the 40th anniversary was around 2006 (or earlier if you want to count the cage).
You'll spend so much time wandering around outside hacking portals you won't have time for any other apps.
I'd go for the royal. Hated that one.
There have been home projects to replicate the spectrum, ula included...
one was called speccybob which replicated the machine in TTL logic, meaning it would be possible to take that design and cram it onto a single chip.
But alas, the person running that project ran into lots of bad luck and had to abort it.
Well, I can certainly agree that it's under-spec at this point in time. Problem is that there's still no competition out there that matches what it can do even with the low-power. Full keyboard, game controls and a desktop linux installation? There aren't any cell-phones that to my knowledge can do all that and still fit in your pocket without external peripherals.
Agreed. A rooted Android phone with a decent mod on it is as close as you can get to a Unix box in your pocket. The lack of a physical keyboard is a drag, but with a decent stock keyboard replacement like SwiftKey, it is not the end of the world.
What about the OpenPandora? That's an actual linux box in your pocket, keyboard included.
Was a failure to stop what happened, no doubt about that.
No need to move to a proprietary hosting service like Github.

it's been common knowledge for a few years now
So making 10 attempts to get the needle into a vein just satisfies your sadistic tendencies?
Well, we have a rule in our trust that ensures we only have three stabs at a patient before we call an anaesthetist to do the job. I can't speak for my colleagues, but I've only ever needed two attempts... But then, some patients I refer straight on to the anesthetics chap without even bothering
This is very handy in emergency situations where it's literally the patient's life on the line if you don't get a needle in.
Dynamically binding, you realize the magic. Statically binding, you see only the hierarchy.
