I see you're another cunt who is part of the problem. Blame the victim, don't blame the criminal. I hope one day you become a victim and then people too can point at you and tell you it was all your fault.

Yeah that slop was written by AI. Been using Linux for 28 years. All that has ever been needed throughout that entire time has to be open a terminal, type in name of text editor you prefer to use. So literally

The end.

That's what they're really worried about. Notice the number of re-masters coming out recently and how songs you play on streaming services from the 80s and 90s from big artists don't sound how you remember them? That's because the artists re-record them due to the copyright coming to an end making minor changes from the original so they can refresh the copyright to that song and continue to make royalties from it.

A lot more people are using price trackers and now seeing that the deals aren't all they appear. The stuff that people want has been price pumped in the run up so it can be dropped so Amazon can claim you're making a saving. However often you'll find it has been cheaper. Also a lot of the time many of items sold in a the Prime Deals can be found at the same price or lower elsewhere. Often the only things that really are dirt cheap and a true price drop is stock that Amazon and sellers can't sell so they fire sale it to get rid of it.

Every week there's some new exploit or another. Number of times I can say I've been a victim of them over the past 33 years of owning a PC.....zero.

Nice to see you catching up with the rest of the world...just your usual 20 years behind everyone else. Got to be at least 20 years since I last saw a data cap on fixed line internet access in the UK.

If what they are doing is also illegal in the USA then they can be extradicted and be prosecuted. If international law worked on the principle of "well we did it from our country, not in yours" then nobody anywhere would ever be able to be prosecuted for financial fraud, theft etc. Fortunately for people like you it is a founding tenet of international law that you cannot direct harm in another country from your own and escape justice.

Maybe there wasn't one? In my town there is one an hour in each direction that only goes in the direction of the major towns to the south or north, nothing going west and they only run between 6am and 8pm. If I need to go anywhere else than those places or I need to go at a time other than the scheduled time then public transport isn't an option. Welcome to living in a rural community.

But making fuel for vehicles isn't the only thing that crude oil they drill and refine gets used for though is it? Many of the components in products in your home, things like the plastics your food comes wrapped in and even the device you posted your comment from also are made using oil.

Well ICO has just fined 23andMe £2.31m over their data breach in 2023 that exposed sensitive personal information, family histories, and health conditions. They also fined Facebook £500,000, the maximum fine at the time, back in 2018 for the Cambridge Analytica scandal just because Facebook had given app developers access to people's data "without clear consent". So yes we do carry out enforcement when it involves citizen privacy.

Apple were worried enough that they removed ADP in the UK rather than face the British courts for non-compliance.

The IRC servers have nothing remotely like the user count that Whatsapp does, nor do they offer anywhere near the same functionality nor uptime.

CD-ROM. You don't need a computer to use a CD-ROM and the CD-ROM pre-dated the invention of the WWW by a decade. The primary use CD-ROM dwas audio in hi-fi systems, portable devices like Walkmans and Ghetto Blasters, car stereos.

One tech executive recently told me his company had stopped hiring anything below an L5 software engineer — a midlevel title typically given to programmers with three to seven years of experience

2030...."Technology sector in crisis due to a shortage of skilled and experienced programmers."
