The venues were pretty cool I thought. Nice break from ‘generic sport stadium A’.
That’s the perfect amount of parmesan.
Near field communication - it’s an antenna that sits inside the back case and let’s your phone interact with payment terminals and the like that support it.
You can add your tap and pay card to your phone and tap your phone instead.
Grrr you reminded me that lollipop got rid of the notification ticker.
One of the nicest implementations of notifications and they scrapped it for intrusive heads up.
Back when material design actually felt like ‘material’
☹️ no nfc
And the surveillance station in the middle of Australia (pine gap)
And there’s quite a few missing!
You think emus look prehistoric, take a look at our cassowary!
Sorry should clarify - the rainforest road was marked with this sign from the article.
So yes a maximum of 100, but due to the nature of the road there’s no way you could do over that without killing yourself. Most of the time, you’d only have time to get up to 60 (if that) before another blind bend.
It just felt nice not to have to worry about speed and focus on the road, because here in Australia they’d have a posted speed limit way too slow and a speed trap around each bend.
I don’t really understand how they consistently manage to screw things up. And they always say that the features are coming, but they never do.
I’m still bitter over Inbox.
I used to be excited about new things from Google. Tried to get into every beta, downloaded the newest released apps etc. But not anymore.
I just read about tasks being removed from Google Keep. Then the feature removal from nest hubs. Do they have a unified strategy at all? Or is it just the whims of a manager’s daily musings that drive what development does?
One of the best drives I’ve done is from Queenstown (on the lightning bolt lake) up the west coast to Greymouth (on the north west coast where the snowcaps stop, the plain there).
Beautiful scenery - you’d be driving (no speed limit, so you can concentrate on the bends) through rainforest one minute and then emerge onto a vast river delta with a giant wooden bridge, then back into forest, then out onto a plain with towering snowcapped mountains above you, then back into forest, then pop out at a beautiful beach.
Never experienced anything like it, it’s one of my favourite memories of my trip to NZ.
Core rope memory?
Memory density is about 2.5MB per cubic metre, might need to buy a warehouse to store it.
Very wet here too in Queensland Australia - seems like our summer was marked with rain and regularly toppling daily minimum (and some maximum) temp records.
Stand corrected, every motherboard I’d had experience with had it connected to a post buzzer.
Never thought there be a case where it wouldn’t be included, as it was essential back then (I’m of the mind they still should, as well as power and activity leds, which seem to have disappeared from laptops)
Well older to a point. Go back to to anytime before late 2000s and every board had a speaker!
Or when the same thing happened with Paul McCartney collaborating with Rhianna on ‘FourFive seconds’ - apparently Paul was a new up and comer!
You said it - money. They want you to have to buy new.
Here in Australia they fill it and give it to you, no refills.
