How much does it cost for, say, a small business in Argentina that ships to the EU to comply with article 27 GDPR by hiring a representative?

Article 27 GDPR, as I understand it, requires businesses outside the EU to hire a representative firm in the EU if they get even one order in a year with a shipping or billing address in an EU member state. It also requires businesses outside Britain to separately hire a representative firm in Britain if they get even one order in a year with a shipping or billing address in Britain. This has caused small businesses without the budget for an article 27 representative's annual fee to comply by removing EU member states and Britain from their list of valid countries. How is this not a geofence?
Getting them drunk together is best way to accomplish that.
Which leaves what for people in Slashdot's home country who enter the workforce before age 21?
Then let's amend it to an algorithm not fully disclosed to its users. This way chronological can stay common-carrier, but the secret sauce of Facebook and X post ranking becomes editorial.
If I “buy”, “purchase”, or otherwise legally procure individual access that is not time-bound to a digital copy of media, whether it’s a game, a book, or a movie, it should be legally required to be transferable to another owner.
The day after that bill gets signed, publishers will switch en masse to selling 10-year rentals. With how MMOs and other live service video games routinely get sunset nowadays, users won't notice a difference.
The state does get something. They get the book.
Not if all copies become unusable before the copyright expires. Fires happen.
It's a good idea to encourage people to come in to borrow physical books on a regular basis just so that they encounter serendipitous opportunities to enrich their lives further.
One could make the same argument to enforce company-wide return to office on grounds that work from home represents lost opportunity for serendipitous conversation around the microwave. If you want Serendipity, look up Stephen Cosgrove.
Tablets can have keyboards attached, apple even sells official keyboards for the ipad. Typing on these is no more difficult than a laptop keyboard.
A tablet with its official keyboard sold separately tends to be more expensive than an entry-level laptop.
Studying computer science is the very definition of a niche for geeks.
Several American public schools are experimenting with making the introduction to computer science course a requirement for high school graduation. (See "Should High Schools Require a CS Course Before Students Graduate?" from July 2023.) If the operating system of a tablet is inadequate for a student to complete a course required for graduation, that makes the tablet less valuable to a high school student.
*facepalm* SDL is not C.
Nor is Pillow Python. However, Pillow routinely has significant changes from one major version to the next. Installing a newer version of Pillow than some system package expects could easily break that package. (This is why PEP 668 happened.) Likewise, installing from source a newer major version of a library than some C program expects could break that library.
HTTP has the "If-Modified-Since" request header, which instructs a server to process a request only if the requested document has changed since the provided date. It also has the "If-None-Match" request header, which does the same thing for "ETag" values.
(I did not use the <code> element in this post where the HTML spec states that I should have because Slashdot issued a diagnostic "Filter error: Invalid HTML tag usage".)
I don't understand how C is any different in this way. SDL major versions 1, 2, and 3 all have serious breaking changes.
People who want to play games can buy a console
Until they use their tablet to browse the website of the game they want to buy and see "Linux and Windows: Buy Now / Consoles: We are seeking a publisher." A newly established indie studio's games aren't on consoles until the console maker approves a studio's request for a devkit. That in turn doesn't happen until the studio brings two or three games to market on a competing platform, which usually ends up being Windows.
browse websites on a tablet
And write long-form articles for a website on what? Learn concepts of computer science on what?
So how do you start a program on Mac?
The same way you've done it since Mac OS 7 in the 1990s. Open the Applications folder (usually pinned to the dock) then open the program.
VHS wasn't that far behind Betamax in picture quality especially after VCR manufacturers implemented the HQ revision. VHS also had the deciding feature of much longer recording time per cassette.
Frontier, a major fiber ISP in the United States, is one of the "ancient ISPs" that still doesn't do IPv6 in 2024. T-Mobile Home Internet does IPv6 but blocks all incoming connections. In my city, that leaves Xfinity by Comcast.
