Looks at .info and .biz from the last expansion. Was anyone really surprised by this in the least?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

While many consumer applications need to be as high level as possible, the industry still needs real-time and high performance.

The EU putting in place pointless, unnecessarily duplicated regulations? Shirley, you jest!

You'd think some EU countries would protest with a referendum or something.

Nah it'd be crazy to put decisions as big as that into the hands of people, many of whom are probably unable to tie their own shoe laces.

BlackBerry confirmed that it will stop making the Classic, one of the company’s last smartphone models based around a physical keyboard for inputting text, as the company prepares for a new series of phone designs based on Android and BlackBerry 10 platforms, and more attempts to compete in an increasingly lopsided smartphone market.

Medieval armor has a bad reputation when it comes to how much movement is possible for a fully-armored and outfitted knight. Chances are you’ve bought into the notion that it resulted in clunky, slow, and awkward battles. Maybe not "new" science and technology news, but I still thought it was neat

AFAIK there are things as PhD in history focusing on combat. If you're in swords and HEMA you probably know of Skallagrim, a youtuber who reviews swords and techniques. His spouse is also deep into historical combat and apparently she's writing a PhD thesis on that.
