I would refrain from using people considering some of them may (become) controversial or are controversial depending on a country, there will never be agreement on someone who is not controversial at all and after all each country can use them on their coins if they feel the urge.
The birds idea is good, I like:
B - nice realistic
D/I/J - don't like vertical design (though I like colorful birds in J)
H - the most beautiful work of art, it would be my choice
Btw. why not use more designs at same time? I like Hong Kong approach to currency design (multiple commercial banks issue the banknotes under government regulation, three authorized banks—HSBC, Standard Chartered Bank, and Bank of China—design and print their own notes for daily use, while the government issues coins and the $10 note).
And very controversial idea, but this would be more suitable for national currency and not for eurozone - use banknotes as ad space companies can purchase, but it would have to be very very very costly space for country's budget to benefit from this. Though I like the idea of paying Pepsi with Coca Cola banknote.
for starters when I browse reddit in new interface after short scrolling it tells me to install app and I can';t read further comments, no such issue with old.reddit
though I have also Continuum client with my own API key in phone, but for some google results it's just faster to read it in browser than opening the app
For those who wonder - cause of death: "My source says he succumbed to complications following his double-bypass surgery." –Scott Mace (2nd link)
Google:
The overall risk of death during or within 30 days of double coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) is very low, generally ranging between 1% and 2%. This translates to a short-term survival rate of 98% to 99%.
For a 74-year-old patient undergoing an isolated double bypass surgery (CABG), the short-term risk of death within 30 days of the procedure generally ranges from 2.5% to 4%. This translates to a short-term survival rate of roughly 96% to 97.5%.
So seems like pretty bad luck on his side.
I remember him back from 90's from reading PC Mag, didn't left that big of an impression on me besides the familiar thumbnail photo and Czech sounding name.
Just got notice from one of my clients, though I rely on e-mail anyway, they claim Whatsapp/Telegram is blocked in China, though Whatsapp works (my personal experience from last summer) for ordinary messages (they just may be delayed), messages with attachments are blocked.
why finally? what's the alternative, how should I get to see my family living 9000+ km away? and the best part is politicians flying in private jets are voting about this, as usual only ordinary people will pay the bill
I think it's more a mental health or social interaction thing rather than expecting improved school results, some studies even show no short term increase in results.
But you don't need study to know kids staring at phones instead of talking and playing together is improvement.
that would be illegal right now, kid/parents can call police you stole their phone and you would be in trouble with police, any school rule isn't above the law, which is why there must be confiscation option clearly mentioned in the smartphone ban law
Czechia had per school rules as well (my kids school bans them in school premises, which leads to groups of kids starting at phones in front of the school, sad sight), but as discussed yesterday by minister of education it's clearly not effective and still huge part of kids use them during school breaks despite more than 90% school officially banning them.
Czechia was one of the, if not the last country in EU without nationwide smartphone regulation
Btw I can't imagine putting my kids in education system in country where you don't have home schooling alternative to state indoctrination in case you need it. And German 2015 immigration crisis and green deal clearly show us your leaders can't be trusted at all.
Under the new system, drivers of fully electric cars will face a charge of 3p per mile, while owners of plug-in hybrid models will pay a reduced rate of 1.5p per mile.
Both figures remain below the 6p per mile currently paid by drivers of petrol and diesel vehicles through fuel duty.
As someone who works/worked for all major Chinese smartphone brands (and some major vacuum cleaner brands) over years I can tell you this is no OnePlus specific, 996 is just Chinese standard.
I remember back when I lived in China some of my flatmates slept in work overnight since it was encouraged, you save time on commuting.
I worked also on OP project which was handled separately from O/Rm and V/IQ, but I find in general approach of these companies very amateurish when it comes down to providing reference materials, though it could be even worse, unnamed company selling mostly in India is disaster, now they use AI to localize their phones, you are suppose to check it with no screenshots, no description, so clearly can't even check it properly, so apparently AI is doing fine since you can't really report worries anyway. And if you will drive EV from the biggest CN EV company expect same, they are not better.
The most professional are H/H and X, no complaints there. They are at Nokia level professionalism from back in the days.
related - recently I learned Microsoft doesn't provide any way to download all your emails from outlook.com in one way to back them up, so Thunderbird was the tool I used to create backup
still can't comprehend how is this legal in EU, Google at least provide takeout
> Nobody under 20 knows what a "console" is even for, they play games on their iPhone almost exclusively.
so which one is it - nobody under 20 knows what console is for or these kids are playing their parents console? you are contradicting yourself, something something moving the goalpost...
apparently my two primary school kids are nobodies for enjoying their PS3 or RetroArch
and they don't have smartphone yet, if they do it will be heavily restricted, they can play games on PS3 or portable like SF2000, phone ain't gaming device
I recently switched phone (Pixel 6a with swollen battery to Xiaomi 13 (Shizuku solves most of the issues without installing custom ROM, which they made impossible through bootloader unlocking process)) and for now decided to not install Cromite yet, but keep Firefox which was offered in browser choice at beginning, still feel very annoyed by the new (not customizable) context menu, but they keep making it even more annoying like with blue persistent for telling you you had downloaded something as if regular notification wouldn't be enough and of course there is no way to get rid off the blue dot besides deleting download (record), just another annoyance
or now they finally semi fixed home page with 8 pinned shortcuts, but despite not having anything else on home page you must still tap Show all, to see other shortcuts, why can't I show all the shortcuts directly on home page is beyond me
and those who care use Vivaldi it other alternatives anyway
