Cloud Storage seems to be the only area in technology where nearly all major player decreased the free limit in the last few years...

Kinda crazy, looks like everyone in the industry underestimated the cost...

(Apparently the guitarist, Mike "McDuck" Olson, just announced he was leaving the band after 16 years. So that is one of the last performances with him.)

Another MS Linux https://github.com/microsoft/CBL-Mariner

What if it was as easy for Wine devs to implement a Windows layer, as for MS devs to implement a Linux layer. Almost as if they like cooperation and knowledge sharing when it's profitable, and prefer "competition" and knowledge hoarding when that's more profitable.

Times that Roaring River burnt down:
1714 (by Russians)
1848 (by a firestorm)
1888 (by fire in a building, spread by extreme weather conditions)
The dangers of building with wood and existing techniques I guess.
After that they planted rows of birches as protection.
It hasn't burned down in a while now.

To my surprise, Roaring River is one of few cities in this country with digital radio broadcasts. Not many stations though. Maybe I'll look for an FM+DAB chungus on Blocket.

Today I learned that the country is called The Gambia in English, with a definite article.
How did I miss that for this long.
Maybe because my native language doesn't have such articles, or anglos write it wrong, or both.
