Looks like the reports weren't confirmed: https://www.theguardian.com/business/2020/oct/04/cineworld-t... Now it says "considering" and "temporarily". Hmm

This is a bit of a disaster, I won't shed any tears for the massive multiplexes or the people behind Cineworld, but their local Picturehouse cinemas are wonderful, often local hubs and employ many dedicated and lovely people. In and ar

Stand-up comedy doesn't have a fraction of the audience, sadly, and many cinemas already serve booze and proper food, even going as far as to-your-seat-service. Everything is ruined, isn't it?

Slightly tangentially, I haven't read anything by Kevin Mitnick for 20 years, but his whole thing on social engineering feels related to putting together innocuous bits of information that add up to more than the sum of their parts. I

Indeed, and then when you check the specs, it says USB-C! https://www.nintendo.com/switch/tech-specs/ I was not pleased with it being an outside warranty issue, but I paid up just to get the thing fixed and back.

Maybe the problems were fixed, but not by the time mine was ordered from Amazon on 8 December 2018. It charged fine with an Anker and Apple charger for, well, until it went pop this July. I'm glad yours is working fine, and it does com

Aha - you may find that your Switch CANNOT in fact share a charge - Nintendo's port is not necessarily safe to use with anything but its supplied charger. And I've just learned this lesson with a $60 bill from Nintendo repair afte

Perhaps, but actively saying things like “most importantly, we can remember that this is how DigitalOcean treats the open source maintainer community, and stay away from their products going forward.” Which is not constructive. I think DO s

I feel bad for the repository maintainer, but they take Digital Ocean's initiative in extremely bad faith during this article. People are frequently incentivized to do the wrong thing and, oh look, here we are. This situation could be

For sure. We used to live in a basement flat in the UK, and when my partner and kid were diagnosed with Vit D deficiency (white skin) I knew I had it too (dark skin). Two weeks of dosing myself cured my knee pains. And I’m a highly-clued up

I agree with pretty much all your points, and for me I use these lists to figure out what I have missed and what I ought to go listen to. Rolling Stone barely has any kind of grasp on the breadth of music. It’s part of an industry that seem

Possibly, but I think the key lines are "the US does not limit surveillance of EU citizens" and "there were insufficient safeguards against snooping by US intelligence agencies", which suggests that it's fixable, al

Romania is pretty bad too, but the whole point is joining the EU is to help IMPROVE all this, which it does. I have driven across the EU and the US and at the lower socioeconomic end, neither has much difference, except that the EU is commi

Epic make excellent products, no argument, this is also a reason why this is a poor tactic - use your strengths to drive a bargain, right? To confirm, I definitely think Epic are running to Mom here with the lawsuit, they were trying to get

But suppose that mall didn't charge for anything else? Electricity, water, security, gravity all came free, and you just paid only if you made a sale? (Ok, there's a $100 developer fee and the cost of a Mac and iOS device.) Maybe

It was common to hear that you can only automate what you do manually, but these days a lot of the underlying tasks have changed. Iptables is an absolute doddle to automate, TBH, and the entire security coverage that Iptables offered has of

True, the analogy is probably broken. You certainly can ask Siri to play music from Spotify, I don't know who said you can't. That was added last October with iOS 13. I have no idea what's happened with Kindle, but I use Goog

Well, I have suggested that Epic have no leverage, several times, and this appears to be true. They violated a contract, threw mud, and filed a lawsuit, all on their own, without any signs of getting developers on board to the cause or havi
