Those projects are funded from auctions around 2012 and fund management since, which is a fund separate from ICANN's own accounting. Some people really, really wanted .blog or whatever, and the proceeds of the resulting auctions went i

Having read about Japanese marriages, I assume that women are often thinking something like like: "There's no way I'm going to have the kind of marriage that involves changing my name. Another kind of marriage maybe BUT NOT T

Germans generally say things like "politcians prefer to spend on building new things, not maintaining" and so on. In my impression, the deeper reason is that the voters' priorities have changed, and the politicians have sense

That article silently assumes that, having a billion, the next step is earning more billions. I can think of other options. I might not choose to buy that expensive house and those cars, personally speaking, but I certainly think there are

None of my friends who got an EV even mentioned it. "How's the new car?" Not a word about range loss. I guess the journalist didn't hear any either.

"Meta's total investment in virtual and augmented reality is set to top $100bn this year," wrote the FT. Good for Meta to have found a customer with nice deep pockets, then.

I remember that magazines stated doing that a few decades ago. The October issue world go on sale in the final days of September and be on sale for most of October, then the November issue World go on sale in the final days of October. It m

Oh fuck. I blame Claude, and myself for not checking Gcmap straight away. Miami should be almost six hours away, then.

So Beijing-Shanghai is 1300km, four hours. New Orleans, Miami and Denver are about 1300km from New York.

That kind of vaccine was superseded fifty years ago because of research. You're basically saying that injecting a small part of a virus is risky, and therefore we should go back to injecting the entire virus.

There might be undocumented immigrants there. Not very likely, but maybe the future queen of Belgium can manage the paperwork for a Harvard application but fails at that for a student visa. Next week he'll look for formula one drivers

It shouldn't be. And in some countries it isn't. But I know a big country where the main right-leaning movement had been taken over by anti-social dumbos, and you know it too. In principle it didn't have to happen, in practic

.00-.24 are rounded down to .00, .25-.74 are rounded to .50 and .75-.99 are rounded up to .00. Why would you assume anything else?
323.
by Arnt 1y ago
We did it in Norway, many years ago. Buy a few apples and something that costs x.99, the sum is then y.53 or z.17 and it's rounded to a sum that can be paid with coins. End of story.

No, that £1 to £5 applies if you're among the first ten to book tickets on that flight. They use a bucket system where the first ten tickets are really cheap, the next ten a little more expensive, etc, and the last ten rather expensive

The title of that thing isn't "Arabs always lose", and if you read it closely, you may notice that it doesn't apply to irregular forces like the houthi. Two regular Arab armies arguably lost against the Houthi: Yemen and

Good point. That is a real change, I agree with that, and it makes a great deal of sense for France to want it. I was only thinking about new investment.
