I’m not familiar with the UK, but were the people formerly doing these jobs from somewhere outside of England? Id that’s the case I’m assuming they were being paid sub par wages and no one else would do it for that wage.

I thought Prop 13 no longer applies to current purchases? If you own a house under prop 13 it’s under way low property tax, but if you sell it, it get reassessed at the new current value. Is this not the case? When we purchased our house y

I believe one of the founders of PowerComputing (one of the original Mac Clone Makers) was an ex-executive from Dell. PowerComputing was really putting the hurt on Apple's sales of computers for a while.

I don’t mind them receiving funding from Google. It just seems like a poorly thought out way to raise funds. They receive 400-450 million /year from Google. Is this not enough to fund Firefox development adequately?

Microsoft has the same service for Office 365 users. We also get a warning when an email comes from a domain other than ours. This is to help warn users of possible scams using spoofed email addresses.

I'd like to point out when I was a kid in the 70's, I remember Hot Wheel's cost more than they cost today. This is not even accounting for inflation.

Does QT have some sort of issues with free software licenses? I wonder why QT hasn’t been used as widely as GTK. Maybe I’m mixing up GTK with Gnome?

Taiwan reminds me of Switzerland. Mountainous terrain with a lot of bunkers and brimming with high end military equipment. It would be really hard to have an invasion force not be noticed by Taiwan. One the shooting started what would stop

This investigation deals with an add on device some restaurants were using to monitor the machines which the manufacturer claims can harm it and seeks to stop its use. I used to work fast food many years ago and we never really had issues w

Am I misunderstanding this from the paper: "The proportion of individuals with COVID-like symptoms was 7.62% (N=13,273) in the intervention arm and 8.62% (N=13,893)" That really seems like a pretty small overall difference in the

That's because most people don't remember the basics from their Biology classes. I believe it's taught here in the US with the basics: DNA->RNA->Protein. The J&J vaccine does work with DNA I believe, so people may b

This sucks. From the original release of MacOS 10 until 10.6 or so, every version felt faster to me than the previous version. I looked forward to the next release. It felt like getting a new computer.
