I wholeheartedly agree that monopolistic practices should be nuked instantly, but I disagree that this was ever well enforced. Microsoft got away with murder in the 90’s before they went to court and even then, feels like they got a slap on the wrist…
I think that this particular case is very far from that, but it does start to smell the same.
You didnt think that was worth doing when you brought it up, so why would I. You sure put in the effort, 1-line man.
What, how do you expect a kid to play and have fun if you don’t get them iPads and all the games and videos imaginable?! You soulless bastard…
/s just in case. Keep it up, you’re doing a good job my brother.
You seem to be struggling a bit, so let me help you out: the title does nothing to address the point that euromaida or whatever is not reputable.
Well sure, but where’s the fun in that? Eh eh
Thanks for the concern brother.

Good link thanks, let me book mark it if I ever need to waste someone’s time.
On your word?
Sensationalism is the kind of red flags I run away from… Obviously the BBC have their own political slant, but I’m aware of it and can correct for that. Same when I read an article from something like Fox “News”.
But if you give me some unknown site of which I don’t know the background and more importantly, who’s funding it, then it’s useless to me and I’ll just add it to the bunch of misinformation machines I run into everyday.
Of course I can, look, I just did.
Can we have links to more reputable, known news sites please? Never heard of that one. Here’s the BBC.
Russia’s military blamed the blast on ammunition which had detonated after the storage building caught fire due to a “violation of safety requirements”.
Huh, I suppose maybe a drone-sized violation?
For the past 600 years, the pope has always been a cardinal.
The last time someone other than a cardinal was elected was 1296, they elected some monk who was something of a holy figure. It was a clusterf*"#, lasted 5 months and every decision he made was reversed by it’s successor except for one (the right for pope’s to abdicate). Which kinda sounds like Bidens term in office, but let’s not give him another chance at being useless, ok?
(There were some other non-cardinals after, but all of them clergy, and mostly during or shortly after the Avignon papacy)
I would like it to come with an open source firmware that I could connect to my locally hosted servers.
I would enjoy mapping out load weights, water and electricity consumption, and cross reference that with a lot of other stuff. Plus some remote controls, and a better interface to choosing washing programs and scheduling start/end…
I just don’t want any of that data to leave my house, ever.
The market is shifting…
For at least half a decade I’ve been seeing computers - both brand-name laptops as well as custom built desktops - sold with FreeDOS as default, and you have to pay extra for Windows.
The most important part is that you wouldn’t get a pc with an instant desktop experience that would just let you just boot up and go to Facebook or whatever, so it had little chance of actually harming Microsoft.
This may actually change things!
I love the thought of this bozo having to pick up his wanktank from the impound yard every week because he was improperly parked.
It’s not even the fines or the embarrassment, because I’m sure this is some rich asshole who cares zero about others, but the inconvenience of having his car towed constantly would bring me so much joy…
Closest I could find was bros yeeting a car out of the way of a tram.
This is definitely the norm in many, many countries. This is the first generation, at least in a long while, where buying a home is looking completely impossible for many…
she took a hammer to the car’s bonnet as Britney Spears’s Hit Me Baby One More Time blared from a speaker.
Ahaha I can just picture that.

As China boosts its internal consumption and increases standards of living, along with a growing highly educated population, I can see their values very much aligning with the EU. That sounds like a very decent world order…
We also have this regular inspection. Doesn’t apply to new cars, the first time is when the car is 4 years old, then every 2 years until 8, then its every year.
There’s a nice benefit to it - they keep the history of how many km the car has in total at that point. You can check this when buying a used car to see if anyone fiddled with the odometer, any big changes should be really obvious.
