'Apple's main source of income is through luxury hardware and subscription services.' So why not keep it that way? I understand the temptation of veering from the path of 'do no evil' but Apple are not exactly short

I understand Google results are personalized but for a site I never visited before and a search term I never used until just now - that would be very impressive?

I would agree but, just out of interest, I got #1 on DDG for 'slang dictionary' and #2 on google uk? That's really unexpected for any site not using https.

That will be the guy with the horse, I'm guessing? Ask your friend... if they know, they know.

The jobs where there are shortages are not industrial, I guess? It is the same in the uk, lots of shortages in jobs that are not jobs in the way you think of a job.

With that kind of money I reckon you would be better off just hiring someone to either share the workload or bring in a skill set that you don't have yourself. You can spend relatively small amounts of money that will improve your own

'Parking meters are another thing that seems to be going the app route.' Gone that way already in the UK, ironically in lots of places where there is very patchy or no mobile signal at all.

Seems the correct etiquette these days is to arrange a call days in advance at a time that will be mutually convenient. My younger self would never have believed this would be the case yet here we are?

I was robbed once in Spain, lost my laptop, tablet and passport. Thankfully, I retained my smartphone which made everything a lot easier to deal with. For instance, the local consulate was super helpful in getting me issued a temporary pass

I have recently received a subpoena from 'the other side of the world' regarding a domain I registered recently. It seems the domain in question was one of many involved in IP infringement against a global fashion brand long befor

It's non-intended sarcasm. Lot's of people who work in London spend 2 hours (each way) a day travelling through open countryside in order to have both a decent job and somewhere basic to sleep at night. People who actually live in

You still wouldn't want to be hit by a moving bicycle though, regardless of speed. People can act recklessly when they perceive themselves to be invulnerable and this applies to everyone, cyclists included.

We've had a few Prime Ministers since Thatcher, was her reach so powerful that she could prevent them from doing anything about this? I recall Blair saying he regretted not doing enough about energy security when he was in power, I don

Most people who can afford it do. We still come out and cheer for the national religion once in a while though since we are told repeatedly it is the envy of the world.

Thatcher was replaced by a guy called Blair who saw the internet as the future worth investing in. Sadly he found another cause to throw money at. The mistake Thatcher made was to open up the telecoms market to competition at a time when th

Yes, you're right, if someone's addictions are so severe that they would otherwise not eat. I don't know any such people but I don't doubt they exist. I think you know I was making a valid point initially though. I was g

They are mostly not. Unlike most people who comment on such issues I actually know of two people who use food banks on a regular basis. One spends £20 a day on tobacco, the other drinks himself into intensive care whenever he has the opport
