Fujitsu was paid £80m by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) in March alone as its public sector business continues unabated, despite its involvement in one of the biggest miscarriages of justice in UK history.

WhatsApp has announced the expansion of its Voice Chat feature for groups.

While the feature is now available to more users than before, the expansion is not like most feature expansions. See also: It is usually the case that new features in apps are made available to small groups of people, and then larger groups. For group Voice Chats in WhatsApp, it is the other way around. In this…
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — Argentina’s government on Thursday unveiled an ambitious scheme to bring billions of undeclared U.S. dollars tucked under mattresses or stashed in foreign bank accounts back into the crisis-prone country, as libertarian President Javier Milei seeks to boost Argentina’s low international currency reserves and stimulate the limping economy.

The ammonia from the guano does not form the particles but supercharges the process that does, Boyer said. “It’s really the dimethyl sulfide from phytoplankton that gives off the sulfur,” he said. “The ammonia enhances the formation rate of particles. Without ammonia, sulfuric acid can form new particles, but with ammonia, it’s 1,000 times faster, and sometimes even more, so we’re talking up to four orders of magnitude faster because of the guano.” This is important in Antarctica specifically because there are not many other sources of particles, such as pollution or emissions from trees, he added. “So the strength of…

If the user is a minor, their account must be linked to a parent or guardian, who would then have to approve each app download — a feature that Apple already provides. The goal is to give parents more control over their children’s online activity and to comply with…
