I guess it's a moot point if I can or cannot upgrade one if they're several hundred pounds and won't ship until three years from now if at all.

Lesson to learn: If your happiness depends on 100% participation from everyone you come into contact with, and 100% of people you -don't- come into contact with, you're going to be unhappy. Just go ahead and do what you're doing anyway.

Also p.s. Slashdot: There's no point putting red text up to say that my adblocker is making a mistake. I trust them a LOT LOT LOT more than I trust you.

That's almost as impressive as the time you got Youtube to come round to your house and film you for their website!

"The minister also gave assurances that users' personal data would be protected."

How about instead of assurances, there are hard, fast, and possibly deadly rules for what happens when users' personal data isn't protected. That'll make them really think about whether they want to link everything to identities.

That's dead simple. Light the table with a strobe light at 20fps.

All keyboards are serial. In fact, almost every keyboard ever is a giant parallel to serial convertor.

I do love it when malware advert javascripts can upload random new firmware updates into my mouse and keyboard turning them into stealth keyloggers. This is great.

This feels like when Flash sandbox breaks became a thing, but worse. At least in those days we got smooth fullscreen vector animations and games to enjoy. I'd rather Flash had just been bloody fixed instead of browsers themselves becoming Shit Flash But Holy Cow It Runs Worse And Gets Worse.

Bet they didn't see that coming

Remember when they advertised Gmail as having storage that grows with you? Infinity plus one storage?
