The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the outbreak an international emergency, with the DR Congo’s health ministry reporting around 350 suspected cases and 91 deaths.

And yet half a dozen Americans are apparently important enough to warrant the entire headline?

Yes to all except Outer Wilds.

I love OW but it is not a game to recommend to someone who explicitly says they want a game with no time pressure. Time pressure is literally a core mechanic.

Split in Croatia sounds like it’d fulfill basically all of your criteria.

I would actually assume the opposite. Transferring apps is relatively easy: get a list of installed apps, check the Play Store for the equivalent Android version, and download it.

Transferring app settings is potentially much harder because it depends on how each app handles settings. Could be a minefield of incompatibilities.

I can’t say I’ve found maximising unintuitive, but there’s definitely an adjustment period to learning that the ‘close’ button only closes the window, not the app. Except sometimes it closes the app.

It boggles my mind that the natural scrolling thing hasn’t been properly fixed yet. It’s such a simple feature and so incomprehensibly wonky without a third party app to fix it.

Wasn’t there a viral Reddit post for a similar issue where someone recommended sucking on the left earbud and it worked?

FYI you can access and download iCloud photos on a computer, which might help your wife transfer them without using her phone.

Which? argues that a customer who would have theoretically paid £1.99 for the service but was not able to do so because the actual £2.99 price was unaffordable suffered a £1 loss, even though the customer paid nothing.

Maybe you have to be a lawyer to understand this, because to me it sounds like complete nonsense.

*15 Pro and up (the base 15 doesn’t support Apple Intelligence).

Yep, CotEditor is fantastic - solo dev and they’re very careful to follow the actual macOS interface guidelines, so it looks and feels native throughout.

Ah, I didn’t consider that! It’s not a thing in the UK.

You mean if there was enough traffic ahead of you at the lights that by the time you reached them they’d gone red again? In that scenario you still pulled forwards and then had to stop again, so I’d consider it two stops.

It’s only one stop if you stopped once and then didn’t move at all between one red light and the next (in which case either the entire queue is blocked from entering the junction, or you’re doing something wrong).

Americans have a bizarre fixation with ‘perfect’ teeth. The ultra-white, ultra-straight look is uncanny to me.

There may be occasional inaccuracies

I’ll say. Tried a handful of things I’m actually familiar with and it was full of mistakes and hallucinated ‘facts’.

Typical AI slop - looks good at a distance but crumbles under the merest scrutiny.

I’m willing to bet it’s people seeing an ‘AI bad’ headline, upvoting, and moving on without reading.

I don’t like AI either but the hivemind on the fediverse is just as bad as back on Reddit sometimes.

And if it was charged via general taxation, presumably, the cost per person would actually be lower.

I don’t currently have a TV license (we only watch streaming) but I’d be happy with that. As you say, there are huge cultural and social benefits to the BBC. We already pay taxes to make museums free for everyone, why not the Beeb too?

I’m not certain. That might fall under falsely implying endorsement, which is one of the few exceptions.

Fun fact: there’s no general concept of image/likeness rights in the UK, and photographers own the full copyright of any photos they take.

There are other laws that come into play if you were in a private place or if your likeness is used to falsely imply endorsement, but otherwise if someone takes your photo in public they can do whatever they want with it.

(Obvious disclaimer that I’m not a lawyer but the above is my understanding of the law.)

No, the users are definitely also criminals.
