   There is nothing stopping you making a torrent. I’m not sure why you expect museum staff to spend their time catering to your niche needs.

   Hopefully British museum just says yes to everyone but Getty.

   I have the carbon too, but I also have a Dell which is a similar thickness but with a drop down sprung Ethernet port. Annoying Lenovo couldn’t fit the same.

   You need to sign into to google for hangouts though. You don’t need to sign up to attend a zoom meeting.

   Only the host needs an account though. For hangouts or FaceTime, everyone needs to sign up to Facebook or Google.

   MRIs are expensive. X-Rays are dangerous, but if you’re about to give someone radiotherapy I would think negligible. Especially if it means you can better target the treatment dose. Also getting secondary cancers years down the line isn’t a

   Not much different to Microsoft. Buy Windows, still get tracking and ads. I use it because it’s convenient. Hard to justify moving from zoom to ms teams when Microsoft have shown they don’t care about privacy either.

   If respected sources waited until they knew the answer, the only available sources would be unreliable. So if that is the only conclusion, at least there is an authoritative one published.

   The game is also on the bbc, for anyone feeling nostalgic for the BBC Micro game. I spent many frustrated hours dying in that game as a child. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/1g84m0sXpnNCv84GpN...

    Inbox zero isn’t deleting everything, it’s archiving those that are done so they aren’t in your immediate inbox. What you’re doing sounds compatible with that.

    I would love to online grocery shop with a core selection of items in my basket. The UK service Ocado provides this functionality, but due to its constantly rotating offers shopping in this manner is inefficient. I would much rather lower p

    Try designing an email newsletter for Outlook. Microsoft really hasn’t moved on that far.

    I disagree. If viruses are forever associated with the locations in which they first spread, perhaps authorities might be a little sharper in controlling the spread.

    I feel comfort knowing I have to try very hard to install non approved apps. If anyone can distribute their own software through their own channels, surely people are going to be tricked into downloading it without understanding the consequ

    Apple don’t sell spare parts to consumers, so what use is a removable battery going to be vs the current system?

    Don't you think 20 years is enough time to profit from a creation? Copywrite law lasts so long, it makes little sense.

    If you’ve gone from earning 40k and struggling, to earning 70k, do you care what the CEO’s motives are? It’s been 5 years, or $150k each, and there’s been no apparent bad news. What more do you need? Have you changed in the last 5 years?

    So you don’t think this is unusual enough to be newsworthy?

    It’s a good analogy. It explains the word “ask” in this case means “requires”.

    I don’t think that makes sense. If everyone pays the same, most funding will come from the least wealthy, as there are more of them. Making the wealthy pay more would keep funding sources more equal.

    Fast lanes benefit established players at the expense of start ups. Consequently, if there has been detrimental effects, I doubt you would notice them. When you think to yourself, why do I put up with youtube, why isn't there an altern

    How many managers would give you time off to study a udemy course though, vs a £1000 professionally run one? It’s frustrating that the main advantage of paying a lot for a course, is having some proper time to do it.

    I despise some Slack features. The drafts folder and the wysiwyg editor. I’m still happy to use it overall, it’s a huge step up from Skype for Business.

    Wouldn’t that undermine the point of negative rates? Better to just charge interest on cash stored at banks.

    A bit of a red herring but I’m not overly familiar with google sheets, I use Excel. A problem I have is others can edit formula on NFS shared documents without it being clear what’s changed. In my mind, collaborative software is like git, w

    Garden leave is paid, you’re also still essentially employed so no gap on the CV. You get a new job before leaving, they’ll wait.

    I agree. I tried GNU cash afterwards but it wasn’t the same. Some early Microsoft products were so good - I was once lost in the middle of the Netherlands, typed a nearby company name in Microsoft Autoroute and got directions to my destinat
