Have to disagree with your newsletter comment @rowancheung and agree with @BillGates. Anything beyond v3 is not typically substantial. iPhone 3g, Windows 3, Apple Mac (vs Apple 2) etc.

Nikola Tesla's prediction of a smartphone, Collier’s magazine interview, 1926: "When wireless is perfectly applied the whole earth will be converted into a huge brain, which in fact it is, all things being particles of a real and rhythmic whole. We shall be able to communicate with one another instantly, irrespective of distance. Not only this, but through television and telephony we shall see and hear one another as perfectly as though we were face to face, despite intervening distances of thousands of miles; and the instruments through which we shall be able to do his will be amazingly simple compared with our present telephone. A man will be able to carry one in his vest pocket."

🚨NEW: Rupert Murdoch, the Chairman of Fox Corporation, told the CEO of Fox News that the network should help Republicans win the 2021 senate runoffs in Georgia, “any way we can”. The Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit shows unequivocally that Fox is a propaganda network, not an independent news agency. buff.ly/3I9dN2v

If someone doesn't understand why we need an Indigenous Voice, I'll say, Imagine you are in your 80s, and your children decide to put you in a nursing home, but without hearing your view. You are without a voice. Imagine the feelings of helplessness, anger, and shame.

"Disagreement is not oppression. Argument is not assault. Words — even provocative or repugnant ones — are not violence. The answer to speech we do not like is more speech." nytimes.com/2016/06/23/educa…
