Lets be honest, if there were anything worth stealing in Germany, the British would already have done it.

Jokes aside again, criminals, even wanted criminals are by still protected by law. The law doesn't stop applying to people when they break it. The definition of an "outlaw" is someone who is expressly denied the protection of the law, so by definition an outlaw can't be wanted (hence the old trope about the wild west outlaw being wanted dead or alive is completely wrong), in effect an outlaw can't seek the protection of the law for crimes committed against them meaning another person can rob or murder them without consequence.

How is this any different to the FBI's most wanted list?

Clue By Four: it isn't.

Or the US seeking Osama Bin Laden, all criminals they have/had little chance of getting so they release the info in the hopes of someone coming forward with info leading to a capture. It also limits where they can travel to as it's a public notice that they're wanted.

This is the exact opposite of a doxxing.

Jokes aside, I think the point is this isn't really a doxxing. Doxxing is an unauthorised release of personal information (usually with the intent to cause harm), this is really the opposite as it's a state releasing the name of a wanted criminal.

In many countries including the UK, speed camera locations are public knowledge, the locations are published and there aren't that many mobile cameras (and they're housed in giant Transit vans). I don't bother with anything like Waze simply because the cameras are bright yellow boxes on the top of poles or huge transit vans with police markings. You can spot them a mile away and if you cant, you probably shouldn't be allowed to drive.

I figured out years ago that what the far right claims the other side is going to do (or doing) is exactly what they intend to do.

The correct answer is to lie.

Give them the figure you want, not the figure you have.

It's not like they can check (legally, at least in most countries).

Also, "my current role is WFH, so if this role requires any travel I'll need at least a £10,000 increase".

I mostly run application fullscreen and switch between them. The only exception is when I'm comparing the content of two windows (in which case I tile horizontally or vertically) and file selection (floating).

When an application uses the entire screen without the window decorations needed in a regular window manager, a screen's limited real estate is in fact better used in a tiled window manager.

Tiled windows don't solve a problem. They're just a different workflow. I've used both for decades and neither is inherently faster or better. It's just what you prefer.

At any rate, don't knock it till you try it.

on all my machines. Once you get past the tiled window manager paradigm - if you've never used one before - you realize how fast and seamless it is, and it truly is the least common denominator in terms of memory usage.

I left Mint (which is really a Ubuntu derivative) years ago, and now i3 / Sway let I have the same unified desktop on all my machines, fast or slow, new or old, and they all feel perfectly usable.

I highly recommend spending the time to create a i3 or Sway config file. It's well worth the effort and it's a one-off.

And if you just want to try i3 or Sway on your existing distro, install it and simply change the Window manager for your user in the display manager: it lives totally independently of whatever your currently use, so it's risk-free.

And why shouldn't they be "resistant"?

They go out and spend the money to increase capacity and this whole AI fad falls in a heap long before they recoup the investment, the techbros aren't going to pick up the tab. Hell, they were planning to screw them on price from the very beginning.

Well it's in France where France has consumer protection laws and truth in advertising laws so they can't just pull the "it's a license not a purchase Nyer Nyer" in a French court and expect to walk out like King Dick. Even though you're purchasing a license it's still a purchase and you still have the expectation that it's not time limited, especially if a time limitation was not specified and clearly advertised before purchase.

I think a better question would be how long ago was it withdrawn from sale? If they were still selling it up until the moment of the shutdown that is a serious problem.

I honestly don't think most people give a crap about patches and support, especially home users. Microsoft is only doing it because they've been pretty much forced by the EU.

I'm also looking at a switch to Linux and I've found that the big problem is still Windows. If you're setting up a fresh install on a new machine you'll have a pretty easy time even if you're dual booting however trying to use your existing steam install in Windows is a right PITA. Hence I'm wating until I get a new gaming boxen to try going over full time.

for the illegal tariffs to be struck down.

It's because in both of those worlds, the US was effectively destroyed. In Nineteen Eighty-Four it was part of the same nation as the UK (Oceana) and in V for Vendetta, it was destroyed by infighting. The UK is presumed stable enough to survive cataclysmic events. The US is presently demonstrating it really isn't and is far more Orwellian than the UK's worst nightmare. I can still criticise the UK leader, Kier Starmer (yes I can, Joe Rogan was talking complete bollocks as per usual), hows that working with you being able to critisise Trump or Charlie Kirk (even daring to repeat what Kirk actually said).

In fact the only UK politico who is likely to come after you for criticising him is the Far-right fascist frog-faced fucktard Nigel Farage... Odd that but as he's never going to get anywhere near power I can still tell Frog Face to Fuck Right Off.
