If you're looking for 13 inch, standard HD screen with long battery life, and all you need is browser and SSH functionality, you might think about trying a Chromebook. The SSH functionality comes as a Google-made extension [1]. The CPU and RAM specs are usually lower than you mention, but in my experience the machine runs fine for video calls, Netflix, etc.

The Guardian ran everything by the US government first before publishing. Every responsible journalist does. They're looking for a response or comment to the story, to make sure they didn't get anything wrong, and to see if there's a any reason to withhold details (a reason beyond "It's classified so don't").

In fact, in Greenwald's book No Place to Hide, he describes how they held off publishing for several days while waiting for a response from the government. Greenwald was so frustrated with the delays that he considered quitting the Guardian and going on his own. I think that's the idea that eventually turned into The Intercept.

Seems broken for me as well. I'm on desktop Chrome. Message says to check JS console. In case it helps, this is the error message:

A Single Div 10 years ago

It looks like use them for CSS properties. The background for the outer div is set to #4e6590, the blue background. The background-image of the inner div (and its ::before and ::after) draw the parts of the zipper.

For example, the inner div has background-image of

    linear-gradient(to top, transparent 10px, #aaa 10px, #aaa 15px, #ccc 15px, #ccc 30px, transparent 30px), repeating-linear-gradient(to bottom, transparent, transparent 5px, #ddd 5px, #ddd 10px), repeating-linear-gradient(to bottom, #ccc, #ccc 5px, transparent 5px, transparent 10px);
which draws the teeth of the zipper.
