Because they're double insulated, so no need for ground. Also with UK plugs (The superior plug type) the apple chargers are pretty great, no way they're falling out the wall then. With the US plug they're pretty annoying thou

Dont conflict one ministers opinion with the whole of the UK. Its not even something that is being debated, it would never get anywhere near a law (Even though I am sure Ms May would love it to).

What are you talking about? WW2 was not about freedom of movement. The Schengen zone did not come about until way later. And as you your self said they never adopted it. Your statement doesn't make much sense. Sure Brexit sucks but we

You think this is equivalent to knowing about the Milky Way? You seem to have put some major significance on something that really has very little baring on our day to day lives. Im sure most countries teach a good deal about the solar syst

This has been my experience too. I love Linux, but its just too buggy (And I had all these issues on a ThinkPad that was marked as 'Linux Ready'). It really does give me a nice environment for development but the lost hours and da

I would argue that use of it's and its is going the same way as who and whom. Its mostly obvious which one is intended and its not like you could tell the difference in spoken English anyway. While its nice to be correct I don't t

The only reason a self-built car won't be reliable is because you don't know what you are doing. The same goes for email. If you take the time to understand what you are doing it is perfectly fine.

They still do lots of storage products like SAN Volume Controller, Storwize, FlashSystems and XIV. However they are currently focusing on cloud, for that they have Softlayer and BlueMix. In terms of other products MQ is still pretty big, so

IBM offer ThinkPads or Macbooks, so people who still want the trackpoint get it. I barely ever see anyone using it though. So long as you don't get a W540 the touchpad is much easier to use (I have a W540 and its touchpad is so bad it

Honestly, with a bit of research and a few practice games you could probably create your own engine for this. Its pretty simple as games go. Plus its far more fun to make your own engine to :D

While I agree this is probably fictional, the technology of canceling out sound waves (Well any wave) is pretty simple. Obviously filtering and replacing the sounds is more complex, but you could probably filter out external sounds in this
