It's no capitalism -- it's corporatism and mercantilism. A tariff makes the market non-free.

It's hard to catch an arsonist: there's few cameras in the forest. And it's not the gambling site member but some stinky bum who's doing it for a single bottle of vodka or a hit of fentanyl.
We had such a law in Poland:
Dz.U. 1921 nr.30 poz.177 (also Dz.U. 1920 nr.11 poz.61): Art.2: An official, guilty of accepting a gift or another material benefit, or a promise thereof, [in matters relevant to duties], shall be punished by death by shooting.
It applied to both politicians and regular members of administration. Guess why this law got dropped...
The domain name is sent anyway (except http 1.0 which is dead), and www.foo.bar being different from foo.bar is weird and self-inflicted. Also, see no-www.org.
No, he does have principles: he'll do anything for love. Love for money, of course.
It's the other brand of socialism, whose usual abbreviation starts with "Na". But they're close to each other, despite what worshippers of either side say.
Sounds more like an EDID problem. I don't know how to debug that on Windows, but you can check that on Linux, search for the EDID blob on the 'Net, and install it on Windows.
Eg. for one of my monitors I have this bit in
xrandr --newmode "1600x1200"x60.0 162.00 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 1201 1204 1250 +hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode HDMI-A-1-5 1600x1200x60.0
xrandr --output HDMI-A-1-5 --mode 1600x1200x60.0
xrandr --output HDMI-A-1-5 --rotate left
xrandr --output HDMI-A-1-5 --left-of DP-1
I just realized this would be better put into
On the other hand, Windows requires raw EDID rather than parsed modelines.
It already is. If you connect to port 443 speaking SSL-wrapped http, what else do you expect?
Actually, their name is a dick joke.
Our only saviour could be the Tolkien Foundation who's been very active suing everyone who dares to refer to any of JRR's works. And copyright has been given such a strength that the FCC has no chances, they may at most pay the extortionists.
Still, they're the Monsanto of software: if something would be worth doing and lucrative, but is not evil, they're not doing.
This scorpion doesn't seem able to change its stripes.
I don't remember the Global Warming Gang predicting that.
The Global Warming Gang is not in the business of predicting anything, they try hard to make it happen.
But if you mean scientists, just wait till you hear about AMOC collapse. No serious models anymore say it won't happen. And then, you'll have the heat that you wish for.
Recycling plastic is a scam, and has been known to be impossible 70 years ago when the idea was born. But reducing trash is an important goal, mostly due to plastic not decomposing for pretty much forever.
I've been using Demon's Dead (MAP10/MAP16) as phone's ringtone for decades now; DSSLOP as the notification sound.
Shawn Got the Shotgun (MAP07) is another gem.
On the other hand, if you haven't seen Doom stuff this millenium, go check out Pirate Doom!
If you enable sideloading, Android will also disable a bunch of "protections", some real some alleged. And bank apps and even stuff like my phone company's payment control app refuse to start if those protections are off.
At least that's what I glean from what Google said; we can't even test what they actually block until the restrictions go live.
