Well, probably an AI translation. Some quite colorful phrasing in there, actually makes for a interesting break from the generic news channel tone. The hashtags are fun too: there are an “volcanic eruption”, a “Tsunami” and “locust invades” tucked away in the SEO tags.

Uncalled for antagonism. Boooo.

Replied to the wrong comment?

You’ll still want a case even if the phone becomes thicker, so in the end you’ll still end up with more bulk?

I think you refer to the often discussed “big cough” origin theory of the universe?

No one here is trying to write a treatise on how nations should interact. India is it’s own story, don’t muddle waters by slinging random and unrelated “but-what-abouts” into the discussion.

I suspect that hardly any mass market consumer cared about security, sadly. And what exactly do you mean with “functional design”? It’s all slabs of screen with a charging port across the industry these days, or did you mean any features added/missing?

Samsung Note 10 and others have a barometric sensor, though I’m not aware of any app using them. Which might explain their removal, sadly.

I think a key benefit here is that the pre-registration allows for faster processing at the border itself, cutting down on queues at the airport. Singapore runs a system where after preregistration you can just walk through an automated (though somewhat finicky) scanner. No queues after arrival, I basically stepped off the international flight and went straight to the city with barely a wait.

Yeah, guess what number was not clarified in the news article? Of course it reads as if 3000 EVs spontaneously combusted… Though from initial reports it looks as if the fire might have been started by one EV. Nuance quickly goes overboard in newspaper comment sections.

Of course the comments on my local news site immediately filled with people crying about the dangers of electric cars… Not a good look for convincing people to switch to EVs. Though I do wonder how this will affect insurance premiums and subsequent shipping cost for manufacturers?
