@Blizywilson @rehan_shei @fal Age of Empires actually did have a mobile release. It was released for Windows Mobile back in 2003. I owned it. It was great.

Age 2 and 3 also had releases for Java phones (2005 and 2007 respectively).

What they need is a *modern* phone release.

@TrumpTrendDaily @learncurvesai @zacbowden @grok Did you know MS already swapped it between Windows 3 and 95?

You can *still* exit apps by double-clicking the icon in their top-left as a compatibility nod to Windows 3.

Note one of my children is autistic, so this may well class as disability discrimination

@McDonaldsUK Markham Moor McDonald's have put a 1.5 hour limit on their car park, so I got a £50 ticket for eating in with my family - which due to the wait for service took 2 hours. If you offer eating in you should allow people to park for long enough! Completely unreasonable!

@KBGreyhoundlady @Portis1000 @ToriCorruption @Edwina_Currie @Conservatives The "very hard up" can't buy a house _at all_ now. The council housing has mostly been sold off, so they are stuck extortionate rent to private landlords and can't scrape together the £4.5k they'd need for a deposit on the cheapest terrace (£45k). Most have no savings whatsoever.

@Fanatical You're out of stock on Boltgun keys - any news on getting more?

@Foone 112 KB is 7/8 of 128 KB. Maybe an early version of the PS1 reserved 2 blocks, leaving 14/16, aka 112 KB free to use?
But then you couldn't have had 15 saved games.

@DelayRGC @standupmaths > C, for instance, gives 9 as an answer.

It doesn't, because C doesn't have an implicit multiply. It gives 9 for the _similar_ equation (6 / 2 * (1 + 2))

Very few languages do have an implicit multiply, actually. Professional calculators do, but they make it an option:

[Gareth Martin @TheThiefMaster]

@56p_ng @standupmaths C doesn't have implicit multiply at all though, so it's not useful with this equation. You'd have to change it to an explicit multiply, which is a different operation.

[Valerie Farrington 💙 @Valhalla51]

This is an eye opener

@faisalislam Why is it projection after Q1 2022? Shouldn't we have Q2 numbers by now for confirmation?

@Stubborn_Tort @andreas_mwg Anchor is a much better term IMO - given its purpose is to anchor the soul in this plane and stop it passing on even though they've died.
"Cage" implies nonconsent, which doesn't feel right.

@AlisdairMered @vzverovich And perl, which is both 😉

@theslickmeister @StevenBHutton C# doesn't have headers and forward decls - it uses two pass compilation and has a strong grammar so it can find the exported API of a class without a separate header
