Seems to have worked in Australia after they banned military style firearms in 1996. Since then, no mass shootings. If only the USA had the courage to do something about their tragic firearms outcomes.

If only they used Anom instead

Here in Aotearoa New Zealand we phased cheques out in 2021. Welcome to the future, Aussies !

I've been using a Microsoft split keyboard for 25 years. I don't care if they rebrand to Surface (TM) or whatever, but I really like their split keyboards.

I thought the whole point of being a contractor was that you got a higher rate of pay.

I am a contactor, and there is no way I would work for even the same rate as a permanent staff member (and in my country they get sick leave and minimum 4 weeks holiday, plus paid public holidays). How is this supposed to work ?

Newsflash ! Decades of weird social experiments in which a minority dehumanises the majority somehow has adverse consequences. Who knew ?
Are you saying they should have continued with apartheid ?

I am a long time developer as well and I ask it technical questions on a daily basis. Stuff I could look up on StackOverflow, but ChatGPT is faster and provides really clear examples e.g. What Azure APIM policy should I use to log out the headers in a request ? One of my colleagues is learning React and is working with someone who uses reasonably complicated React, so she pastes the code in and says "what does this code do?". She says it really helps.

Firstly, I am not speaking for them, I am merely stating a blindingly obvious way to get permission to use their name. i.e. ask them. There will be a leadership structure and processes for engaging with the Apache people, although it does strike me as likely that members of "the patchy server" leadership would need to front up and hold discussions face to face.

Why do you falsely equate Russia (a massive and aggressively hedgemonising geopolitical entity) with a people who are the victims of a White supremacist movement (European colonisation) ? If you can not appreciate the different, you really need to do some study into history. Also, there is a difference between Russian culture (e.g. your pies) and Russia the country, why would you need to ask Putin to open a shop selling Russian pies ?

Agreed, my Lumia was great and I loved the UI. Would swap my Android for a modern Windows Phone that could run current apps (e.g. my banking app etc)

"Whinging" is a perfectly cromulent word in this context !

No matter your position on whether it should be legal, not having to deal with murderous cartels to get your cocaine hit is definitively A Good Thing.

Four body language experts have reviewed the footage of the game and it looks like Robbi Lew was telling the truth. She had a bad hand, made an atrocious call and got lucky. You can see their video here.

I was living in London in 1995 when they had the hottest summer on record (which goes back three centuries). The problem is that their systems are not set up to handle that much heat for days or weeks on end. Things like the milk you bought yesterday has gone off overnight. Basically their entire society is not set up to handle these kinds of heatwaves.
BTW, the actual quote is "Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the noonday sun", from a song by Rudyard Kipling.

So, not actually playing the full game. Headline should make it clear that it was a subset of bridge only.
