maybe they should have 6 months of each?

All these worlds are ours :-)

Except this one :-(

Nice ignorance.
In my adopted country, the names Aleksi and Alexi are common. My son, born a few years before Amazon's monster, is called Alexi.
He has an Echo in his room - we changed the wake word to "computer".
He's never been teased or anything - no big deal at all. We just had a few laughs with him about it.

Utter crap. Most of these victims (many of whom are childern) know nothing of IT security, or even the implications of what can be done with their personal data.
This is a dark day for Finland.

40 BC was the ransome to Vastaamo. The ransom to the actual clients was a "mere" $240 if paid promptly.

Hubs?

The point is that speaking a language does NOT define one's nationality.
Most of my (mother-tongue) Swedish speaking friends here in Finland, would without a doubt call themselves Finnish. The exceptions are those that come from Sweden. Pretty sure that if Linus was my friend, he would be be in the non-exceptions.
Finland has 2 official languages.

He's not Swedish, just comes from a Swedish speaking family in Finland (very common).
According to your principal 50 million Americans are "actually Spanish".

UK - isn't that an island somewhere off the coast of Europe?
I heard they even speak English there.

How is this NOT a drone, based on accepted definitions like "any unmanned aircraft or ship that is guided remotely"?

Because every irresponsible kid on the block has one now.

Oh dear, you might be right on that.
(At least mine just went through MOT without a problem with it)
The few references I could find were a bit vague but referred to the nuisance noise at 2am.

Yes - these combined bulbs(led) and buzzer cost pennies on your favorite auction site, and are trivial for most to install (can you change a bulb)?
Real action taken right now will save some lives.

Rear facing Kinect?
