At only 163 entries of ca. 200 countries, a whole bunch of stuff is missing. Andorra as well, for example.

Maybe buy less shitty mice ;-) My last 2 mice both died to microswitch failures, one hard failure (just didn't do anything), one soft failure (just became very mushy and annoying to use). Don't remember before that.

You pretty much have to include the cable at least for a mouse since a normal cable will be either too rigid or die rather quickly to the continuous movement. The one my mouse came with has a rather nice woven mantle and is quite flexible,

Sadly, the port is [a few cents] more expensive than the captive cable, especially with USB >= 3.0* on USB-C where a port must handle connector reversal. (And if course if you look at "final price" with including a cable in the

Leipzig is rather inconsistent. Hauptbahnhof (main station) is incomplete, or possibly overly pedantic; it's missing the "Westseite" station part where tram 9 stops (it doesn't pass through the 4 middle tracks where the

This is incredibly funny considering AI generated content is currently endemic thrash on YouTube. AI generated fake trailers, universally hated zombodubbing, weird "touches" on shorts… Which to be clear isn't a contradiction

As someone who only knows Broadcom's silicon business: there, they're just used to people having no other choice, with their quasi monopoly in some fields. Are they (mistakenly) transferring that attitude to VMware?

I think someone just forgot to delete an option somewhere and it "crept in", and it really isn't supposed to have a "buy" link at all at this point.

You don't develop an ASIC to run a router with, you buy one off the shelf. And the function of a router doesn't exactly change day by day (or even year by year).

The headline — which, let's face it, will be the only thing a whole bunch of people are going to read — really makes it out like they bought shitty trains, or even that trains can't be better. Which is just untrue.

That's not exactly NTP though ;) I'll also say PTP is superior since it syncs TAI rather than NTP's UTC. Which probably isn't going to change even with NTPv5.
