I feel like I'm opening myself up to some abuse by posting this, but I still use my original brown Zune every day. I bought one as soon as they became available and I've always loved it. I've swapped out the original hard drive twice (once early on for a 100 GB HDD until it died, and then for a 128 GB SSD), and I've replaced the battery twice as well. Sometimes I wonder if I just hold onto it out of nostalgia, but I hope it will last a long time to come!

The UK has had mail voting for years. It works very well. Your ballot is marked with a unique reference vote. Once you mark the ballot, you fold and seal it, then put it into another envelope that also comes with the ballot.

I'd say the Gemini and the Cosmo are spiritual successors (same industrial designer as the Psion Series 5/5mx I believe): https://www.planetcom.co.uk/

This is a bit random, but I have a cameo appearance in Counterfeit Monkey as my rockstar alter ego 'Nexami Engeo.' Cool to see the game being mentioned on Hacker News

I thought Keybase was open source? Released under the New BSD (3 Clause) License?

In case anyone else was facing this problem (and isn't too committed to Aspell as a backend for Flyspell), the version of Hunspell from ezwinports[1] (version 1.3.2 at time of posting) seems to be working with Emacs 26.1 on Windows.

Flyspell in Emacs 26.1 seems to require a version of Aspell that is not officially available for Windows. I might need to put off the upgrade until I can attempt to compile a newer Aspell for Windows myself.
"Error enabling Flyspell mode: (aspell release 0.60 or greater is required)"

I think you can restore the default from the main menu?

The Mousetrap by Agatha Christie has been running for almost 65 years (it's been running continually since it opened in 1952).
