“poorly designed” is perhaps the weirdest complaint I’ve ever heard about London - those pesky Romans should’ve had a better vision for the city rather than the jumbled mess we have 2,000 years later.

I really miss the flashing LED from my BlackBerry Z30 - so long ago.

A for horses, B for lamb, C for miles, D for Kate etc. etc. The cockney alphabet.

I’m not a fan either. Rewatched Trainspotting a year or two ago - much better than I remembered. Enjoyed Shallow Grave and 28 Days at the time. The rest I ain’t seen. Tried to watch the Beach but bailed after 20 minutes. Absolute junk.

I personally don’t think Danny Boyle is struggling for attention; one of his films won eight Oscars. I think people in film world know who he is.

Because of the camera they used? Really?

I’ve never heard of that bracelet (surprise surprise) - talk about a pipe dream. I just want to be able to view diagrams and plans on something bigger than a phone. Whilst on site and off grid. And yes, I know they’re available on paper but… reasons. We use tough-tablets sometimes but their pretty cumbersome when not in use.

More screen space in a smaller portable form is of tremendous use to some people - until projectors come of age at least.

Honestly, where I operate, almost nobody uses (outgoing) sms/mms - unless their phone has actual physical buttons on it. It’s all iMessage for those who can or something like Viber for those who can’t. I can’t see why anybody would take a step backwards to RCS when it offered nothing that we haven’t already been doing for years - and it’s apparently network dependant.

I found it tiresomely political and strangely dogmatic way too much of the time. I didn’t get the impression that there was a wide cross-section of people on there.

Perhaps if an app wants to do business in a country it should send an ambassador there to have a full time presence. Seems a reasonable compromise to me.

He really is the DJ Khaled of technology… which is not a compliment. Can people not just tell “certain sections” of Texans that an uppity African American with a couple of baby mommas and lots of money is moving in to their neighbourhood? And bringing his “business interests” with him too.

Yeah, I’m Welsh myself. I just wondered how somebody who struggled with Wmffre / Humphrey would do with the whole Wrwgwai thing. Some English speakers get it immediately others get a headache thinking about it.

Having read your comment I’d like your views on “Wrwgwai” - the South American country of Uruguay.

I see it didn’t take long for the anti-Canada lobby to arrive.

Legalise Canada

I’m not an authority on this but I believe that objectively a character WILL look like “that” but when viewed subjectively they look like “this”. So, in short, to answer your question: yes, but not really. I hope this helps.

Price fixing doesn’t mean setting a fair or reasonable price for your product. Price fixing is the - usually - illegal practice of artificially raising your product’s price by means of market manipulation or similar. Union wage negotiations are more a form of collective bargaining.

Apart from the fact you can hide photos in your album this is so out of touch with reality… applying stop and search with your kids. Imagine a high ranking police officer forgetting about how important trust is in any two-way relationship.

Funnily enough in Russian the word for train station is Vauxhall… spelt Russian. People say that Russian engineers studying in London mistook the name of a specific underground station - Vauxhall - as the generic word for station and imported it into their language before anyone realised the mistake.
