Just ask Origin...

Too many times I have had to endure a commercial break on a streaming platform that I have paid for. I can forgive some ads if it means a lower price, but they squander the opportunity by running an ad for the exact show that I'm ALREADY WATCHING! Of all the ads that they could play, that is the one that benefits us both the least.

How about a compromise? Trimester reporting?

Just who is this warning for? Is Tesco trying to sway the judicial system by saying that food delivery might be impacted, and could cause food riots? That's not how the legal system works.

This is almost exactly like what the Borg implants do - When Picard was assimilated, a probe altered his DNA, and you could see that his flesh turned a greyish color. Nice to see that Star Trek is still influencing the progress of science even today.

Your question makes sense, but I think you're right - It's not that simple.

Your theoretical Debian distro might be fine for general purpose use, but there may be people who want a distro for games, or a wide range of hardware compatibility. In both of those cases, you might need to have a kernel compiled with specific options, and a distro bundled with certain desktop GUIs and applications.

The hardcore linux enthusiasts will tell you to compile your own kernel. Have you ever tried it? It's not for beginners, and the choices you make during compile time would only serve to frustrate you later.

Look, I just want to use linux without needing to build it myself, but there are so many different ways to do things, there is no one way that would make everyone happy - no matter what changes you add on top of it.

I got here via Feedbro, and I also use an RSS reader on my mobile device for listening to podcasts while I'm in the car.

The question is: Who is going to stop him? No one, that's who.

He appoints judges that will defer to him.
He has the majority of the House on his side.
He has Secret Service personal protection.
He controls the military.

I would like to believe that there is some governmental bureau that would arrest him, and hold him for crimes, but he seems to fire anyone who seems to be able to do that.

The only other option I can think of (outside of violence) is to just wait it out until there are more Dems in the House, or his term is up.

...so that they will pass that cost onto the customer bWANTy increasing the cost of paid apps. Do you WANT to pay more for apps?

Don't underestimate humans' ability to change their environment.

What good is breeding a human that can survive in extreme heat when everyone has Central Air Conditioning?

Don't worry, He'll be defeated by a farm boy from Iowa.

So it sounds like the premium app just allows you to save your favorite words in a list. Notepad to the rescue!

Nothing of value was lost. Likewise, for the purchase or subscription price, nothing of value was obtained.

It's not that Windows 11 is *BAD* per se, but it requires TPM 2.0. I cannot upgrade from win 10 to Win 11 because my machine is too old, and doesn't have a TPM, but I'm not willing to throw it away for a newer one. Despite it's increased learning curve, Linux is now the preferred choice.Also, recent advances in usability and similarity to Windows also makes Linux more appealing now.

That behavior makes you really evaluate how much you need a stand alone GPS unit. All modern smartphones have GPS built-in and can perform way more functions.Garmin is now obsolete.

And now, thanks to this post on Slashdot, I can see the hidden image, and I don't even own a a PowerMac!
