Nokia brings back the "8110" that appeared in d matrix

It’s easy to forget that Nokia was once one of the biggest phone companies in the world. In 1999, it was so popular that one of its devices, the Nokia 8110, appeared in the first Matrix movie.

It comes with KaiOS—a fork of Firefox’s now  discontinued  Linux-based mobile operating system—and uses HTML5 apps. Owners get Google Assistant, Maps, and Search, along with Facebook a...

A teacher from the Canadian Arctic has been named as the winner of the annual Global Teacher Prize. Maggie MacDonnell, who teaches at a remote village school, spoke at the award ceremony about the problem of youth suicides in the Inuit community. The winner was announced by a video-link with astronauts on the International Space Station. She was congratulated by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau - who said she was "shaping the future". "You chose to teach at the Ikusik school in Salluit, a remote village in the Canadian Arctic "There are no roads to Salluit - it is only accessible by air and it gets cold, really cold, -20c this time of year," said Mr Trudeau. "I'd like to say thank you to every teacher out there." Ms MacDonnell has worked to improve the health and life chances of an isolated community of young Inuit people who have faced deprivation - and she spoke of the impact on the community of high levels of youth suic...
