1-in-40,000 is still better than the chance for the average Slashdot reader!

The app of my bank has a button that you can click to check if the bank is currently calling you. You can put in your phone number, so that you can do this check on a different phone than the one you are using for the call.

And the bank constantly reminds me of the existence of this function.

My finger, however, can be stolen...

max acceleration of 22,000 mm/s

mm/s is a speed, not an acceleration. That should probably be mm/(s*s).
But this time it's not the editors fault, TFA already has the units wrong. I guess Tomshardware also can't do UTF-8? (superscript 2: Â)

Only after three years? Nah, Fairphones are never locked to start with. As it should be.

If you buy a Fairphone, it's your phone, to do with as you see fit. You can also get replacement parts for it.

Scientists Manufacture Material in a Lab That Doesn't Exist on Earth

So, where is this lab located, if it doesn't exist on earth?

The ambiguity of the English language is fun, especially when combined with dyslexia.

It wasn't banned in the Netherlands. The text at the end of the AD is Dutch and I remember seeing it on TV :)
