My £400 Dell Latitude is 5 years old, gets 12 hours of use a day and is dragged through some very dusty, dirty environments on a daily basis. All the keys are working. If you make a consumer product that can't withstand basic consumer

I'm with Uno Broadband who sell BT fibre lines (so upto 70 down/20 up) for around £40 a month with no blocks or restrictions and a static IP. No download limits to speak of either as I can easily hit 2TB download a month. They fix

If you've got Google wifi points in my opinion you're simply inviting them to spy on you anyway.

Just how likely is this to happen though, it would have to be the only light source and be flickering with exactly the same frequency as the machinery is traveling at (which i assume for most devices varies a lot). Not saying it can't

That's precisely why I don't want them. I don't feel it's worth the time and effort.

My Nokia 7.1 has monthly updates guaranteed for two years, is fast with a decent camera and has all the apps I need. Battery life and build quality are fantastic. All for about a quarter of the price of an iPhone XR. Not sure I agree with y

An modern (Last 20 years) ICE engine shouldn't use any fuel while engine braking. The ECU should just cut the fuel to the engine and allow it to run under vacuum. My 15 year old Golf does and engine braking is why I've still got t

I've used this before which fits your bill: https://clipperz.is . Quite an interesting app and you can download and offline copy of your notes too.

The chink in the chain for Barclays though is their mobile app on-boarding that relies on bank account information and SMS authentication which turns your phone into a PinSentry too. Don't get me wrong, Barclays probably does it better

This seems pretty common with a lot of banks. I've got accounts with several high street UK banks and almost all of them have some kind of reliance on SMS, maximum password requirements (like 10 letters with no symbols) or 'secret

Unless they radically change how Facebook messenger works I don't see how it could even be called end-to-end encryption. For it to work how it does now (online and independently through the app) they would have to hold the encryption k

I rarely use Office products but I spend most of my day in some Office 365 product or another. There is a huge amount more to it than just Word.

That's quite the understatement. I wonder what is taking Tesla so long to get their factory up and running.

You need to factor in the time it would take for teachers to move all of their resources over to another format. Some teachers have decades worth of work that they teach with.
