She ended up with dementia and couldn't even remember that her husband had died. Lack of sleep of a long period of time a possible contributor to the condition?

Yep, definitely looks like HDR content rendered as SDR.

Our son had a febrile seizure one time when he was sick. One of the scariest moments we had in his younger years. He stopped convulsing while we were in the phone to 999 to call for an ambulance. No vaccine, but he was sick with a very high temperature. Some people have strong immune reactions to vaccines, which can cause a high temperature. So, I can see that a vaccine could cause a febrile convulsion. The chances of long term issues are low but better than the odds of what might happen if catching the disease without immunity.

He certainly does know his limits now. From TFA:

the former truck mechanic said that he had "completely screwed up" early on when two cobra bites in quick succession left him in a coma.

"I didn't want to die. I didn't want to lose a finger. I didn't want to miss work," he told the BBC.

Slim was audio-only, wasn't it? The first version of AirPlay, AirTunes, was released in 2004. Incidentally, I still use my AirPort Express for streaming music to speakers. The point is, this precedes WebSockets, and whatever Slim was doing, it wasn't available to Apple.

Didn't web sockets come much later? I don't think they describe the transport of A/V either (codec, multiplex, subtitling etc).

Doesn't AirPlay use HLS for the multimedia formatting, although no idea what is used for control, and I would guess something based on Bonjour for device discovery.

Which tried and tested protocols deployed at scale offered the same functionality in 2004 (AirTunes, the AirPlay predecessor) and 2010 (AirPlay itself)? How are those protocols doing now? Did Google use them in Google Play or Chrome Cast years later?

Iâ(TM)m just wondering which tried and tested protocol(s) you and the OP expected Apple to adopt for this? Starting in 2004 and getting a major update in 2010?

Google came along with their own equivalent protocol in 2013 - are you criticising them too?

There was also DLNA, but itâ(TM)s now defunct.

They can still tell you what the sales tax is on those socks while showing the final price.

In the UK, where a business often sales to other business, it's common to show both VAT inclusive and exclusive prices. In direct to consumer cases, we all know what the VAT rate is, but it's often printed on receipts and invoices anyway.

It's illegal for us to advertise prices that aren't final (what you actually pay).

What does it matter what the untaxed price is? Even if the local place has a lower untaxed price than out-of-state online retailer, you'll be comparing final price including taxes (plus probably convenience and ease of returns) against the final price including shipping. Are you seriously saying that you'd buy from the out-of-state online retailer if their untaxed price was lower but cost after shipping is more than local price including taxes? What nonsense.

The UK is in Europe, despite what some people might pretend ;)

IE had a lot of compatibility, with everything that Microsoft did and all the people that developed only with IE in mind. It looks like Google and lazy devs are just doing the very same thing today, but with Chrome.

It's not Apple that's the problem, but lazy devs who only test on Chrome and its view of the how HTML should work. Don't you remember what it was like when Microsoft had a browser monopoly?

Mozilla adding another Firefox platform? Talk about spreading themselves too thinly. It's a dying product.
