I wish they would put focus on macOS. The recent bugs have been laughable. I am seriously considering switching for the first time in about 16 years. The lure of better more affordable dev hardware is almost to much.

I am sorry to hear that. That must have been a terrible experience for him and you.

I am very surprised given how little machine gun barrels resemble a motar round! Was your father prosecuted? Edit: see stefanfisk comment, there is a surprising similarity between one type of wwi motar and wwi machine gun barrels.

If I buy a product from a website using Bolt, and for whatever legitimate reason I do a chargeback, let's say the product never arrived and the company refused to acknowledge this, will the anti fraud ban me from buying from any of you

"Workers of the world, unite!" You are correct that the stevedore unions are different from the seafarers unions. The issue is that they cooperate legally or illegally. They also cooperate internationally. Its the brotherhood abov

Crews are unionised and paid a lot of money. This would not replace all crew members. You would still need ship engineers to maintain the ship and electrical engineers to monitor and repair refrigeration containers (they will attempt to fix

They will fail not because it cannot be done, but no union member will load these ships nor unload them. The real problem is not going to be technical, it will be political. The only way it could be done now is create non union ports on bot

Firefox on Android is so frustrating. Things like no swipe down to refresh, despite all other apps implementating that pattern. On my phone, scrolling by swiping is slow, it scrolls such a short distance. Meaning going down a long NH page t
