  • Oh, right. That's fine then.

  • Me, watching at the pages upon pages of games I haven't even touched yet in my collection... Even if half of them are complete duds, and half of what's left is kind of meh, I've got enough to be entertained forever even if all gaming studios vanish overnight.

  • Aren't they worried that the bazillion of SpaceX satellites will cast shadows on their light beams?

  • Well, it's true that if you need to illuminate a site for two and a half minutes but can't build anything on the ground, it's a great solution. Is it the best solution? Maybe not. Is it a solution? You bet it is.

  • The illumination would last only a few minutes at one location before the mirror required repointing. Reflect Orbital says the technology could extend solar power production after sunset, illuminate construction areas and assist rescue teams working in darkness.

    Flare guns already do this for a lot cheaper. They even come in a choice of colours.

  • I like the one with the nice bush.

  • You don't actually have to maximise your windows, you can just set them to your favourite ratio.

  • Don't a lot of them do that on Sundays as well?

  • Hm, thanks to them I found out about Boox.

  • How did you think product reviews happened?

  • But without wifi you can't connect to its internal webcam to see how clean your mugs are!

  • It's people like that that comfort me in my belief that leaving the trees was a mistake.

  • What happens when you factory reset a dishwasher? Does it erase all of your dishes?

  • We used to have HTML+ and be happy!

  • As if modern websites care about Firefox

  • It's never happened to me either, but I've seen it happen to others. So YMMV I guess...

  • Wouldn't you need some sort of environmental hazard monitoring agency to know about that?

  • I mentioned that one because it's been at it since way before the Internet and is now well known even beyond France for the extremely eclectic and high quality selection it plays. FIP originally stands for France Inter Paris, it was meant as a music only station with only very short interruptions with soothing voices for news and traffic. The women with those particular tones of voice became known as the fipettes, and got some kind of faceless celebrity as a result. It used to be a standard setting on every car radio before there were a bazillion ststions (and CDs, and streaming).

  • If you're going that way, there's also FIP.
