Maybe there is some misunderstanding. The hypothetical case is the following: 1) Your smartphone fell and the screen broke (or some other problem). 2) You have another smartphone (an old one or a spare). In this case the phone is broken but

The whole idea with reinforced concrete is that concrete has thermal expansion very similar to that of steel, thus both steel rebars and the concrete that encloses them move in the same manner. A rule of the thumb with bridges is that the m

Yes, very likely carriers (and phone manufacturers) are in the process of making the transfer easier, but it remains more complex than a physical SIM. I wonder how the "same QR code" might work, I mean, let's say you have you

Though it won't probably change the final result of the calculations, the adoption of 65,000 km duration for brake pads and 80,000 km for tires sounds to me optimistic. I would say 40,000-50,000 km for both brake pads and tires.

Sorry to be the (usual) pessimist, but with a physical SIM, if your phone breaks, you can take the SIM and put in another phone (a spare one, a borrowed one), with the eSIM, this becomes complex or impossible: https://news.ycombi

If you have the space, yes, it makes sense (IMHO). There is something in reading from a real book that (maybe it is just me) it is non-reproducible with online reading or e-books.

JFYI, the (particular) way the Britannica is (was) organized allows for reading it like a book. There is a small "Micropaedia" where you look for a synthetic definition of something, that has references to one or more pages on the

Well, original Model M's are loud (clicky) so maybe you won't like them, and the new Unicomp oones are said to be even more loud. A known refurbisher of M models is: https://www.clickykeyboards.com/ the name shoul

Yes, but usually the plane won't take off at all without getting lighter, the issue is in taking off, not in getting altitude once air borne. Typically in case of particularly high temperatures or other adverse conditions, the plane is

Strangely, it depends on the size of the restaurant and how many meals are made daily/how many customers are served. Same goes for motels/hotels, size of the building/number of bathrooms and number of people staying there aff

Yep, they forced the mis-characterization to be able to cite Douglas Adams in the title and make it clickbait. Besides, the episode/anecdote in itself is not particularly fun and - at the most - the telephone technician could have been

Besides the specific vulnerability/exploit, it still perplexes me how there wasn't a "official" address/contact and the Author had to make several attempts to report the issue (and had even to go through Twitter!).
