Long ago I played this game called Airport Mania. In it you’re an ATC. There’s like 10 stages (airports), with several levels in each stage in increasing difficulty. There are different capabilities to add to the airport (such as de-icing,

Actually I’m not so sure about that. The turning on and off quickly part. Because in my country (in Asia) there’s surplus energy from renewables (solar, wind) during the daytime, so much so that they’re having to shut things down because th

For example when I buy coffee in America the barista says “awesome!” I think they mean well. But it feels weird.

I think this “awesome”, “amazing”, “super exciting” phase came much later than the moon walking era. Remember it’s been over 50 years since humans walked on the moon. Much has changed. See these old videos, where people talk in a straightfo

> stick shifts are also possible Ah, let me add on to this from the other perspective. I live in a country where cars are driven on the left side of the road. ie., the steering wheel’s on the right side, and the gear shifter is operated

Though I don’t own one, I’m fortunate enough to occasionally be able to drive around a “Benz”. It’s my dad’s. Over here we prefer saying “Benz” rather than “Mercedes”. It’s a W212 E-Class, bought new just a few months before the all new gen

We’re going off track, but I’m curious as to whether you experience this problem only on Apple devices, and not – for example – Android devices? (btw, it’s an honor to be able to reply to you; hope you’re doing well :) )

Why not use antibacterial soap instead of NON-antibacterial soap? Wouldn’t it be even more effective?

That’s anecdotal. So do you think iPhones built in China have terrible build quality? How about the ones made in India? I have an India-built iPhone — can’t tell a difference. Chinese parts don’t necessarily mean low quality. It may have me

Why those 3 countries in particular? Wouldn’t this work anywhere (provided it’s not in a war zone or a volcano zone etc)?

What should they have defaulted to? I mean, wouldn't any language they choose exclude others?

For those who don't know, Digilocker is a govt initiative. Also, it is opt-in and not mandatory. If you don't want to use it then don't bother. Nobody will force you to install the app or attach it with any of your docs.

Bergamo to Liverpool is over 1700 km by road as per Google Maps. The company is trying to solve transportation for the 50 to 300 mile range (around 80 to 500 km). Trains can easily do this. Anyway, in China the Beijing to Guangzhou high-spe
