Its been the standard in Europe also. This has been changing, but only recently.

Yes, it is still a quartz watch. The oscillator is still a quartz oscillator. However the mechanism which advances the second hand is replaced with onethat does not need to tick.

The kind of quartz watch is no longer a ticking quartz watch, it is a non-ticking quartz watch.

As for the specific wording of the article, I would assume the authoris not fully versed in partsof quartz watches, and does not know that the oscillator which keeps time is different from the stepping motor which moves the hands.

This invention targets only replacing the stepping motor, not the oscillator.

Thats exactly the proposition. Eliminate tifking quartz watches in favor of non-ticking quartz watches.

Say goodbye to the quartz watches that do tick replace them with ones that do not tick

French innovator aims to consign ticking quartz watches to history

The ‘ticking’ is what is being consigned to history. The article is about an alternative to ‘ticking quartz watches’, a non-ticking quartz watch

‘legitimate government’ isn’t really a thing. Many recognized countries are ruled by hereditary governments, or by autocrats who gained power in a coup. The legitimacy of such governments, andthe nationhood of the states, is recognized by other countries based on the foreign policy (mostly self interest) of those other countries. So, if you want to guess who would recognize a Gaza nation with Hamas as the ruling clique, ask yourself what governments would benifit from doing that.

Geology. I found a professor on youtube (Nick Zentner) who puts up lecture series and seminars. There are so many mysteries and amazing things to learn.

I just moved and won’t have home internet until tuesday, so I downloaded his entire geology 101 to watch while unpacking.

Yay fountain pens! Watch out for their close friend, watches, though.

The one wheel works by having the rider lean in a direction to go that way. The more you lean, the faster it goes. It balances by pushing the rider in that direction. The trick is when you are leaning and going very fast, but then the board loses power and can’t push you anymore. Then the board nose dives and ejects you. Its the physics of the board, so they can warn you it might happen, but not prevent it.
