Amazon.com acquired parent Quidsi, Inc. for $545 million on November 8, 2010. Prior to Amazon’s purchase, Amazon sold diapers at steep losses in order to undercut Diapers.com and drive down the purchase price of the company.

No. Not if they really want to buy you.

He is the only one on the island but there are more developers. Hammond even says to “call his team In Cambridge”.

I think that’s when you watch two shows at the same time.

This is not a new phenomenon.

Would a lot of people wanting to use the hardware but the drivers sucking be indicative of a good company or a bad company?

I liked them but I also grew up with Choose Your Own Adventure books. You might try some of the hybrid games like Kings Quest that have graphics and use arrow keys but also use a parser for input.

To a certain extent I get it though. It’s one of the fundamental failings of the App Store. In the olden days you paid for a piece of software and whatever was on the disc is what you got. When next year’s version came out you had to go to the store and pay for that one too or call the number on the shareware screen. When the App Store came out all of a sudden Apple and their customers expected devs to keep supporting apps on newer platforms with changing APIs. You can’t develop with no income, so developers turned to subscriptions and similar.

There needs to be a better way but Apple makes money off the way it works now.

Sailfish was based on MeeGo, it is absolutely Linux based.

That’s only the Cavendish, there are other varieties of banana. I was recently in Hawai’i and got to try an Apple Banana that had been grown there.

My dog hates leaving the house. Literally screams bloody murder upon seeing a car let along being put in one.

This is pretty much what swap meets (aka flea markets) are for.

This is cool but it shows where tribes are now, not where they were before removal.

5:27 or 5:32… the numbers need to add or subtract for my brain to accept it.

That’s because elevators use counter weights usually equal to the weight of the car and half the occupancy load so that it takes less energy to lift it and if it falls for any reason it won’t hit the bottom as long as the counter weights are still attached. The occupancy load is determined by the counter weighting system not the cable load capacity.

It’s been a minute but every place I have worked that had tickets had a weekly round table meeting to cover the ones you have had open for more than a week.

Sounds like you maybe had bad managers.

I live in the US and I also just got back from a 10 day trip that had me in 6 different airports around the US and saw basically nobody using their phones to pay. I saw a bunch of people using the translate app, the camera, FaceTime, Apple wallet for boarding passes, but no tap to pay.

I think it’s because the places that use it also have their own apps, like Starbucks. You can order and pay in the app and if you are likely to setup Apple Pay you are probably fine going all the way with the app too. The same is true of Walmart and other major retailers who also specifically don’t take Apple or Google pay because they want you to use their app.

I think people overestimate that feature. Where I live you still have to hand your card to the teller most of the time and nobody is handing their phone over for tap to pay.

They are called HMD now.

I agree, Motorola is owned by Lenovo. They have found middling success with the return of their Razr line and with phones in the lower to mid tier range. But they really want something super flagship. Something like the Think Phone would have probably sold really well with a Graphene option.

I still have high hopes for the Open WebOS project.
