Germans were kind of late to the whole RADAR party in recent history (1940s). So now they are perhaps overcompensating a bit.

Tox. A proper p2p messaging tool.

IIRC Signal needs phone numbers.

So Mr Manafort should chose Tox over Signal in any future crimes.

"absurd amount"?

FYI Trader Frank's has the Pound Plus Bar for IIRC about $5.

It's sad. Russia only had less than a decade of somewhat democratic rule over the last... I don't even know... years.

So it's not just me that thinks Google lost the war to spammers?

I limit my searches to com,org,net,io domains and the first pages are still full of spam.

The UI is race-to-the-bottom terrible.

Choosing "verbatim" takes 3 mouse clicks FFS!

"The end". Literally.

Wait, flying cars? Did I miss something? How long have I been asleep?

$500,000,000 for a week of advertising for a museum?

I think the only thing they are advertising is they have a lot of money.

I'm guessing targeting other people with a lot of money.

Huh. During a recent heatwave I wrote code the way C Gods (K&R) intended - with absolutly minimal clothing.

>They just look nice.

Location may factor in here. They may look nice in NYC but they probably wish they could wear whatever they wanted (Zuckerberg) in Southern California.
