It's well above the number of images that were in the applicable folder by default, so seems pretty appropriate to me.

The UK has remained a participant in SEPA, even after Brexit:

That article and your memory glosses over the fact that Apple redesigned the antenna to fix the actual problem in later devices - the antenna was changed in the Verizon iPhone 4 (which came out later), as well as the iPhone 4S and all subsequent models.

No where did I say the phone didn’t need a redesigned antenna. Just that as shipped it did function.

if the design was bad then people weren't holding it wrong.

How semantic do you want to get?

GrapheneOS doesn't give you root access.

The OS is designed to offer privacy and security guarantees, which root access breaks, so they don't offer it.


Having access to your own device doesn't break anything, they just don't want to be put in the same category as other FOSS Android distributions and play by Google's book so that apps will at least allow one open OS to work


The APIs it's relying on to show you that information do implement some anti-fingerprinting mechanisms - things like available memory will be put into rough buckets rather than returning the exact amount you have.


The BBC Future website is not aimed at users in the UK, and features content produced by the BBC's commercial arm.

Users in the UK can read it without ads, but it's not generally promoted or linked to by bbc.co.uk


Ah that makes more sense then!


> Is there a UK version of the EFF that fights in the courts against this lunacy or does it not quite work the same in the UK as it does in the US.

The government looks likely to introduce the ban as regulation through secondary legislation (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9824zvpz9po).

That is open to judicial review.

If primary legislation was instead passed, that's a lot harder to challenge - Parliament makes the law, so whatever Parliament said applies.

Politics is very different in the UK than in the US, especially when the governing party has such a large majority.

The banning of under-16s from social media has widespread support across the parties in Parliament.


There is no version of Windows 2000 for consumers.

Windows Me was the nearest consumer release (2000 came out in 1999, Me in 2000), and did share most of the same UI, but was based on Windows 98.

Windows XP was the first version of Windows to ship with the same codebase for both consumer and business.


Windows 2000 Professional was the non server edition no? That's the one I was running AFAIK.

But you might be right by meaning consumer is non business user.. I also ran ME for about 2 weeks lol


> However I agree that in purely domestic airports I don't see how you'd prevent general public from accessing bags.

I don't understand this.

Why can't they have a door after the baggage claim that does not permit entry to the baggage claim area?

That's how things work in the UK.

In my local airport, the final part of leaving the arrivals area is the same for both international and domestic flights.

Passport control > Baggage claim (international) > Customs > One-way exit to landside

Baggage claim (domestic) > One-way exit to landside


Virtually all of the Kagi results bring you up when I do that.


Odd. For me more than half are the other guy.
