And how would they program that keyboard? Why should they need to buy extra hardware? Instead, it's offered on every copy of Windows, and activated in a standard way that doesn't require multiple simultaneous keys. They can walk up to a library shared computer, or something at work, and start using it.

It's annoying when it gets in the way of gaming, but face it: pressing shift 5 times is not something you do accidentally in most apps outside of gaming.

The guy that invented time zones was solving a problem where each little town had their own time standard. I don't think that was sustainable.

Or 30% to deliver an app.

Fun fact: pretty much all the helium we have access to comes from alpha decay of heavier atoms, such as natural uranium. An alpha radiation particle is just a "naked" and fast moving helium nucleus. (Missing the electrons.) When this happens deep in the earth, it quickly runs into something, stops moving, and picks up some electrons to make it helium, which can accumulate in certain rocks.

Orbits are circles or ovals, and the satellite must always be moving to stay in orbit. But the time to go around depends on the distance, so there is a distance where the satellite takes 24 hours to go around, which matches the Earth's rotation, which is geosynchronous. A subset of these is called geostationary, when the orbit is a circle around the equator, so it stays in the same spot of the sky. (Then we can aim a ground antenna just once and don't have to adjust it.) Satellites at this distance add 1/4 second delay to any signal because of light speed. This orbit is very tight, since it can not vary in altitude by more than a few hundred meters. (More than that would cause them to drift east or west out of the assigned spot.) There are a limited number of "slots" in this orbit to keep the satellites safely separated and to prevent their signals from overlapping. Most of these are used for communication, especially TV. A few are for weather, as they can watch an entire hemisphere constantly.

Other satellites operate in a lower orbit. Here the orbital period can be as low as 90 minutes. Most of these orbits are inclined so they pass over most of the earth instead of just the equator. The orbit (circle) stays in one angle while the earth rotates underneath. Satellites here get better images because they are closer to Earth, but take a day (or more) to see everything. They also have greatly reduced light speed delays. These orbits eventually decay because of tiny amounts of air at that altitude.

The snakes could go down the drain of a toilet in the other restroom, and come out inside your restroom.

iPhone is like ChatGPT. But trying to trademark GPT would be like trademarking "Phone"

It is now but the comment mentioned 2014.

Thought this was already established precedent.

Maybe. The EU just ruled on Apple Safari, so they may be forced to allow other browsers in their phones.

Pantone suddenly decided to assert copyright and licensing to the literal names of colors in a way the broke art files going back decades.
