Yep, although more for the aluminium than the steel!

Aluminium and steel have interesting galvanic reactions when touching each other https://www.albanycountyfasteners.com/blog/stainless-steel-and-aluminum/

Magnavox Odyssey, Atari Home Pong, Coleco Telstar - that sort of thing. Mostly with built in games.

I’ve also removed from my wish list - hopefully they reverse the decision and I can add it back.

It’s in the last paragraph

Amazingly he didn’t spend $44,000 - he spent a total of $214,000!

FTA: According to CBS News, citing a criminal complaint and affidavit of probable cause, Lawrence Kozak allegedly spent over $214,000 on his Apple ID, with just under $44,000 of that amount charged to a credit card associated with the parish.

Best I could find is the entire division makes about 35% profit and you’d have to assume some of that was YouTube

Revenue is not profit

As a native BrE speaker I’d say “I’ve X installed” is a little weird, fine in speech but written down it doesn't look right. “I’ve installed X” is fine.

The last track sounds almost green and verdant but I think it’s too frenetic to be a peaceful and lush planet. Maybe one with white water rapids and fast moving water?

You don’t pay tax on growth, you do on dividends. For large shareholders a high dividend can be a problem. Even for me, a very small time retail investor, I have to keep a balance of growth (like Apple) and dividend (I tend to use a dividend ETF so I can fairly reliably estimate my dividends) so I can avoid paying tax on the dividends.

Small updates but I think the spidertron change is good, although I’m not overly enthused by the new name of the item.

Hello and thank you for being part of the Fediverse experiment. This Community is run by some long term Discord and Reddit community members - as this is a whole new world it's possible many of us have different names - I am LordWarfire from both Reddit and Discord and wanted to welcome you to this new place.

Please make yourselves at home and let us know what you'd like to see here and how you found us!

For anyone who found us via the Fediverse - this is a Community for the town of Reading in Berkshire, rather than for the thing you do with books. I know, it's confusing. We even pronounce it differently - welcome to "Redding" :)

Thanks!
