That's their choice - the comment I replied to phrased it as if every airline charges extra for any baggage of any kind, not that cheap airlines charge for 'extras'.

To be clear: I'm not European nor do I live in Europe. I just looked up a flight, for example London to Paris. The cheapest BA ticket includes hand luggage for £57 each way, or the next option with checked baggage is £14 more. I'm

Most of the points here don't pass the sniff test to me. The way the claims are worded makes it seem like they're comparing two extremes: completely separated (as in literally separate VMs/K8s clusters/whatever) infra fo

> I believe it's their PR plan. ... What exactly do you think they planned? The photos show a person's name on an email from an airline. Are you suggesting they planted a fake phone on the side of a road, with a fake email from

Is there something that precludes iCloud Keychain from your list?

AFAIK It's nothing to do with "punishing" non-iPhone users, it's a way of reducing account break ins. Signing in from a physical apple device gives them more information about the sign in itself - signing in from a brows

Can you give an example of this phenomenon, e.g. a package that one would install using `npm` which includes binaries? I wasn't even aware this was a thing people do.

Oh the huge manatee. Whatever will we do without "news" outlets publishing clickbait articles and rehashing events for the twelfth time to drive eyeballs? Wikipedia says newspapers first appeared in the 17th century. So they manag
