Comment Samsung Galaxy Note 2 - 8 years and still going... (Score 1) 393

Ok, memory constrained as apps have bloated over time...
Maps craps out if I try use it in navigate mode.
New apps don't support it.

Very pleased with the thing, dropped it soooo many times.
Screen glass been smashed forever, have a replacement but never bothered installing it.

An excellent model.

Comment Yeah, he also said he could land ROCKETS on BARGES (Score 1) 260

Well his timelines are crap, his social skills are as you'd expect an old-time Slashdotian to be (brought up in a cellar with minimal human contact).
BUT he seems to always pull the rabbit out of the hat, eventually... Elon Time. Personally I've given up on seeing autonomous driving in my lifetime, I could yet be surprised... I can never forget the "impossible" first successful barge landing... or land-ing ;)

Comment App polling whether paste icon enable... (Score 0) 61

Wasn't this determined to be the app checking whether or not to enable the paste icon?
Didn't several other apps also exhibit this behaviour?
Makes great headlines though... all part of the hysteria that divides the world by the powers that be...

Let me guess... Next week Apple & Forbes release TickTockUS

Comment NZ no longer CoViD free... (Score 3, Informative) 221

...we just had a couple of people fly in with the virus. Driven half way down the country (Akl --> Wgn). Apparently one of them felt sick before leaving but went anyway. Usual fun trying to track down the cloud of doom they've sprayed behind them...

Comment Too expensive to try stay in lockdown... (Score 1) 300

...you'd need the whole planet to stay put for a couple of weeks... not going to happen. We need to learn to live with the virus until a vaccine is created (if ever). Thinking that clearing the virus out of your corner of the woods is game over is just silly. Lockdowns are not financially sustainable every time there's a re-incursion, and there will be reinfections.
