I maybe wrong on this, But think they had to change to glass backs for wireless charging

Yeah you can't wireless charge through a metal back. Plastic is fine, more impact resistant but not premium enough for Apple.
Makes sense, I didn't even think of that as I never use it. But as above, plastic would be a better option in my mind.
Thanks. I usually face-lather but I like to use the scuttle when I have the time for a relaxing shave. It's great in winter when I can fill it with hot water to keep the lather warm but in summer I usually just use it like a bowl, without any water. That's where a separate, smaller bowl like the one you have would come in handy. I've been on the look out for one with similar unglazed Suribachi-type grooves to my scuttle, and that seems to fit the bill.

Yes, but then people moan about how cheap they feel...

I'm confused as to why people are acting surprised that modern phones are more delicate?
They're more delicate because it's a byproduct of how modern phones are now interacted with and used through a honking big touch screen. Screens are brittle and that also applies to Gorilla glass that has historically traded shatter proofing for scratch resistance.
Even plastic feature/dumb phones would show signs of damage if you dropped them, but the screen being a relatively small part of the phone wouldn't take the full impact of the drop and was less likely to smash as a result.

Utimate 64 Elite.
Basically an FPGA Commodore 64, with modern features such as ethernet,usb & hdmi.
That is pretty cool...... if there was an Amiga version they can take my money!

So.... equivalent of £240 quid for 3 high quality masks and 12 replacement filters - last 100 hours each, activated carbon, 5 layer....- N95, KN95, GB/T, PM2.5... may offer no protection, but better than nothing, waiting to see if there is an issue in Vietnam next week or not, after the incubation period. Have said we will leave if they close my daughters school.
6+ weeks food stocked up, and alcohol spray for the hands..... only thing that may help is it is very hot here, and coronavirus's generally spread when it is cold and immune systems are stressed.... Like me at the moment.

Purchased a 5K iMac this week so added another 16GB ram for £68, to make a total of 24GB.

Them slots are pretty funky. They should have made storage + Memory + CPU upgradeable at least! They really need to do this moving forward.

I'd be very surprised if the next iMac design change keeps the RAM access area.

I know. I can just live n hope. They certainly don't want people to replace components that's for sure!

Have you heard of Apple?!

Touchy bunch. It was simply a thought, I didn’t say it was wrong/bad/I don’t do it.
Triggered too easily
LOL - you make a stupid post and now it's "LOL OMGZ YOU GUYS ARE TRIGGERED"
No, you're silly - grow up.

See, triggered. Even went full keyboard warrior with the caps.
I’ve already talked about my post further down if you care to read on instead of posting childish insults.

Funny enough No I haven't, products sound amazing though but shame for not allowing anyone to repair properly.
