What happens if the coating was not applied correctly or somehow comes off?

Coincidentally, the car in the title picture is one of VW’s first EVs where physical buttons make a return, and it has regular handles. It also comes with a touch screen and tracking, though.

Just a funny way to say money. No idea if it can be used in a serious context.

Does “worth $1 billion” still mean anything these days?

Would have been funny if they did that and it turned out to be the crappiest phone ever

I don’t even believe them, but until that update is actually released, the announcement is just the information we have for now.

Tell you what, you’re not allowed to reply for 24 hours. Go think about it.

Imho a better comparison would be not being allowed to post within the first 24 hours after signing up. Sure it would be annoying once, but not much of a deal in the long term.

You had to enable the “installing from other sources” setting long before this change, and there are people who did that. How many of those would now stop doing that just because of the one-time wait?

So new smartphones are banned too?

The report noted […] that Russian officials viewed the race as a high-stakes contest for Moscow’s influence inside both NATO and the European Union.

Where (approximately) did you find it?

Who’s going to be blamed when the summary got it wrong though?

Was wondering about those stickers. The packaging itself doesn’t have the actual ingredients?

It looks like the AMD model still comes with SO-DIMM. Was hoping for AMD + LPCAMM2 + repairability, but I guess you can’t have everything yet.
