Anywhere from 35C to 75C depending on what you are making. 50C is just about right for most vegetables and mushrooms.

It's not three straight rows of keys with the other buttons on a fourth row at the bottom. That's what BB had a design patent for.

Nokia had quite a few, the E-line (e.g E6, E63, E71) being some of the most "blackberry" looking ones.

BB didn't have a patent on the idea of a keyboard on a phone, but they did (do?) have a design patent for one of the most optimal layouts and dancing around it was tricky and risky. Or you can just be Typo, directly rip off a BB keyboard, and act surprised when you get sued.

My HTC Desire Z (aka T-Mobile G2) got many years of extra use as a dedicated emulation machine for exactly that reason.

Yes. But it's better than being identified as a unique user which is much more likely without it. You can test it yourself on https://amiunique.org/fingerprint

You should definitely not try to find info on how to take your Kindle on a WinterBreak ;)

They are also frequency-hopping, meaning they constantly switch what part of the band they use, and there are a few rc radio protocols use a dual frequency system for redundancy. FRsky has one that does 2.4Ghz and 900Mhz at the same time.

So to make sure you are jamming all (commercial) drones, you need to deafen everything from ~850Mhz up to 5.9Ghz.

Also Android has an option to allow numbers that call you twice in 15 minutes to get through as well, which they would do anyway if there is an actual emergency, and someone is really trying to reach you asap.

Way too many apps implement a hide/mute functionality and then call it a "block", though.

If I block someone, I don't want to simply hide their messages from my view, I want them to not be able to see and interact with mine. It should be a restraining order, not just sticking your fingers into your own ears and shouting "LALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU" while they continue to shout slander to anyone passing by.

I completely understand why Valve decided that the touchpad haptics were good enough, the deck is heavy as it is already. I'd still love to have the option of adding some proper rumble on the deck for the games that deserve it.
