Yeah I like the GNOME calendar and it works well with Microshit Enterprise accounts if you set up the account in Evolution + Evolution-EWS (if the admin has blocked IMAP etc access so you need OAuth). Thunderbird + Tbsync is my go-to though.

Edit: corrected typo in “account”.

I think I need the “fuck it we ball” one on a T-shirt!

I had a Lumia with Win Phone (I forget the exact model & sw version) and thought it was great - it was super fast, lightweight and the battery life was decent but there weren’t many apps out there, at least not in comparison to Android

Can only imagine, must have been like watching the demise of Myspace or something

Yeah true, can’t argue there

I always find it amazing when you hear these insights into the downfall of once huge companies. It’s incredible how terrible some people’s judgement can be and a lot of these successful people are riding on luck rather than intelligence it seems

Aside from the all of the absolute horror, that is an amazing headline

I think the fact that it’s very chemically stable is likely a factor as well so it can be stored for effectively an infinite amount of time & it won’t degrade/react, it’ll still be gold.

It is wizardry right enough - electricity goes in, magic occurs,l and machine goes ping

It’s definitely not as exciting as it sounds. It applies a large current through some graphite rods which causes the carbon to evaporate & deposit on a sample sat underneath. It’s used to coat electrically insulating samples with a conductive layer of carbon for electron microscopy.

We have a carbon evaporator that runs linux

Personally I don’t know of any specific research but afaik the reason why our voices sound terrible to us when recorded is because they’re missing the bass that’s transmitted through the skull, i.e. they sound higher pitched on recording. So I’d try increasing the amplitude of the lower frequencies on the EQ, it’ll take a bit of fiddling to get the right balance.

It’ll be paraphrased from something a Tory said and I suspect the quotes cover the “paper” from libel since they can then claim it was opinion rather than fact

A large-breasted frog it would seem.
