Not many people have 4k sets, HDR isn't standardized, and by the time things get sorted out and these end up in peoples' homes, the next generation will be upon us and ready to fully exploit 4k.
4K TVs are outselling 1080p ones. HDR may not be standardised but from a console perspective once it has been it can be resolved by a simple firmware update.
* don't run Windows or OSX
Or Linux or Unix as both of those have exploits both local and remote as well. Might get away with BeOS if you're wanting something with a GUI but as its over a decade and a half old hardware support may be an issue.
This is a complete disgrace. This is an Irish citizen. If he's committed a crime on Irish soil he should be tried in and Irish court under Irish law.
The idea that countries, mainly America, can now extradite people all over the world sticks two fingers up at the idea of sovereign states.
What's next ? An American being sent to face the death penalty because there's a video of them dropping some chewing gum on the streets of Singapore ?
Sorry but this is a basic tenet of international law and has been for many many years, that you cannot direct harm in one country from another and be immune from prosecution simply because you did it from elsewhere.
I've noticed this in my country, employers who once used to run apprenticeships and training schemes up until the late 1990s decided that they no longer needed to bother because they had access to a labour market from 26 other EU countries so they could find applicants already trained up. That's all well and good at first but the pool of people available for skilled jobs fully trained up with several years of experience who can just "drop into" a position are limited and without training people up the pool dries up.
My employer after 20 years has just restarted its apprenticeship scheme because its finally realised that the situation cannot exist forever.
Yes, and in the UK, outside of the urban/suburban areas the mobile and wired internet are both atrocious.
Yet here I am in a small town of 11,000 people living in a county that is 1.5 times the size of London with only 1/20th of its population and I get:
70mbps down and 19mbps up for my landline:

And for 3G speedtests in the same area I get 20.7mbit down, 11.97mbit up:

No, you didn't. No carrier offers what you are describing at that price (and they didn't two years ago either when prices were even higher than now.)
Yeah actually he did. I did on Three. And prices have gone up over the last couple of years, not down. Now paying £20 a month SIM only for 600 minutes, unlimited texts, unlimited data with 30GB of tethering.
and if you want to go from i.e. Portugal to Italy, you either have to pay roaming costs or buy another sim card and plan for another carrier.
Not any more. Inter EU roaming costs have been outlawed by the EU.
Norway had to accept Euro schengen zone and many of the EU regulations in which they have no say in.
There is a shortage of housing in the UK. Not enough homes are being built to cover the rising demands.
Actually there isn't a shortage of housing in the UK at all, merely a shortage of housing in areas of high demand. Overall there's enough property to house everyone. Where the shortage of housing is is in London and within commuting distance. Same story with unaffordable housing. Within 25 miles of where I live there are thousands of houses someone on a minimum wage job could buy for a 3.5x income multiplier mortgage with a deposit equivalent to the price of a cheap second hand car.
I had a POS 92 Sunbird with 60k miles that ran like crap. I sold it to a guy for about $500 telling him honestly there is something wrong and he drove it and said he could fix it. 2 weeks later he calls bitching because he blew up the engine. I told him sorry but it was sold as is. Threatened to sue me but never did.
Old cars breaks. If you want something that lasts forever too bad.
I don't know how shit cars are made in the USA but over here in the UK they're expected to do at least 100,000 miles without any major faults, every manufacturer has a body corrosion warranty of at least a decade and even Kia offer a 100,000 mile warranty.
But I dont understand how this a story, but if my Honda broke after 70,000 fucking miles nobody bats an eye.
Kia offer 100,000 mile 7 year warranties. Ball joint failures like this are extremely uncommon especially at 70,000 miles. Thats the kind of failure you get at double that mileage on a vehicle that gets driven down dirt tracks and never ever sees a mechanic.
Feel disillusioned? I've got some great new illusions, right here!
