The last 2-3 iPhones have had ‘lift to wake’ functionality. My partner’s iPhone SE definitely has it, but my iPhone 6 doesn’t.

USB-C seems like a concession for the future, but when you consider the MX Master 2S is Micro-USB, you’ll need two cables to charge them.

I just wish they’d had the balls to drop the Radiator Springs crew and run with a 100% new set of characters in a pure Bond/Bourne/Spy parody- McMissile’s rig infiltration at the start & the airport exfil were so exciting I enjoy re-watching them.

a) It’s apparently not great

Both games were great, but one is an adventure game with a few bits of grand strategy bolted on, whereas the other is the first proper real-time strategy (ignoring Herzog Zwei).

‘We Can Do It’ is a woman rolling up her sleeve, getting ready to work hard. The offensive gesture involves grabbing your bicep.

She’s pulling up her sleeve to show she’s getting down to work, not grabbing her bicep.

But surely books, CDs and DVDs go out of print all the time?

Nope, wrong.

I’ve *never* known any publisher to recall copies & update them - that would be a massive waste of resources.

Surely she took the role in full knowledge it would be a VO role?

The idea is between exits you move lanes appropriately without causing an accident - if you’re passing halfway around the roundabout, head towards the inner lane(s). Ideally the road or a sign on approach will indicate the ideal lane to take.

You missed the bit that generally you indicate the opposite way if the exit is past halfway (i.e. the ‘left turn’ option on the above diagram) then indicate back out of the roundabout.

Just as much as roundabouts seem to confuse Americans, it confuses me (a European) that they are confused by them :)

The UK only has 5 note types available, 4 of which have so many varied security features (especially the new polymer £5), with easy checks (note-checking pens/machines, holding up to light, holograms, metal stripe, feel, ink quality etc.) that it’s almost impossible to easily counterfeit them compared to knocking out

If you need £20, surely just get a £20 note?

The Airports aren’t aware of each other’s client load & performance, so if one is closer to, for example, the front door, it’ll pick up phones and other stuff as people come home & they won’t be released to the other AP until it specifically moves completely beyond the range of the first.

I think it’s because ‘the establishment’ continues to equate age with wisdom and clear thinking, but really, these days, age can just as easily be associated with embedded out-of-date views and rose-tinted daydreaming.

They *could* do it, but I highly doubt they will - the whole reason Foxconn & Pegatron are so valuable to companies like Apple is they’ve built the assembly process INTO the production process. Raw materials go in, finished products come out, ready to be loaded on a plane and in stores around the world within 48 hours.
