If they could squeeze out an extra dollar then they would already do so. They don’t need to justify it as “increased security costs”.

Isn’t it always said that jurys are made up of people not smart enough to get out of jury duty.

What a terribly written article. I got half way through and just gave up.

UK to be more precise. England doesn’t have a devolved parliament

Flattr was such a good concept, it’s so disappointing it never caught on

Why would you want any of that in a text editor…?

This thread might be the fastest I’ve ever seen discussion devolve from “that could be interesting” to just incomprehensible screaming.

Pixel 6 with Graphene OS.

It’s perfect. I wouldn’t swap it for anything. Graphene is a delight to use. Android as it should always have been. Regular updates, very secure, no bloat, full (optional) Play Services support, all my banking apps work.

Only downsides are:

• No headphone jack, which I was dead against but tbh Bluetooth earbuds these days are superb and wired headphones were cumbersome.

Do you find yourself correcting people who order a panini instead of a panino?
