“Still, there’s no denying the whole films hinges on an event that could never actually occur, unless created by scientific innovation or mystical beings. Which, my friends, are pretty much the textbook definitions of science fiction and fantasy.”

“It’s all starting to feel sort of insecure and crazy, if we’re honest.”.

Big Mercs (and big BMWs), especially of that era, are made for one purpose: driving very comfortably, for very long distances. You can drive all day in a big merc, (eg Dusseldorf to Monaco) and arrive feeling like you’ve popped around the corner to pick up milk. I used to have a W124 120TE. Fabulous, I’d happily own…

Oh thank F***!! Logitech finally updated their trackball rather than dropping it.  My M570 works brilliantly, but I live in fear of it ever dying and not being able to find a replacement.  Thank you Logitech, thank you!

“The Rivian reps I talked to at the company’s booth could tell me exactly where the truck is slated to be manufactured, but it sounds like distribution and service is still “being worked out.”

It’s perfectly timed. This is “Get rid of last years junk to clear the storehouse for next years junk” time. :D

If Laptop makers want to make their products easier to sell, all they have to do is (as you said yourself), make fewer different designs. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with a laptop chassis that’s 2 years old, assuming that the actual processor, mainboard etc can be updated to keep up with technological progress. …

Have to agree - I use Amazon all the time to demonstrate to non-devs (designers, board execs etc) how functionality will always be far important than fancy graphics or non-standard user-interface designs. Amazon looks horrendous to a designer, but it works.

Do the under-pan cameras have built in wipers to clean the lens off after dunking in muddy water?

Allegedly Posh Spice (Victoria Beckham) was consulted on the original Evoque interior fit out. JLR were aiming the vehicle at the ‘Rich Yummy Mummy’ demographic.

Came here for this XKCD, not disappointed.

Yesterday I didn’t need one - FB was only serving 3 or 4 items to my feed anyway.

Seeing a LOT of them here in Southern France, virtually every time we travel we see one. :) I like em, I’d buy one. They’re becoming ‘collector’ cars though so are a bit over-priced.

Or ‘Browserstack.com’ for any pc based OS/Browser combo. (Yes the OS can play a part in affecting how a web-page is rendered. IE11 on Win7 behaves differently to IE11 on Win8 and Win10). Running your own suite of Virtual boxen is an alternative, but if there’s an online source, why not use it.
Any front end Web Dev not…

Quit.  Seriously.  If you’re not enjoying life, go do something different until you figure out what you CAN do that you WANT to do.

Have to say, I’m a lover of function over form.

Haven’t watched any G-Force since I was about 6!  Loved that show!

As the others have said - keep shooting.

Has to be said, being offered a seat is one of the best indications of a society working together peacefully.

“Even when I’m parked, though, it can be tough to buckle down and bury my face in my computer when all I want to do is explore, meet people, try things, take photos”
