How about letting people post photos on the web without ratio restrictions? Maybe start there first.

Considering that most unsolicited spam calls are spoofed numbers and come from overseas and not originating in France, this is going to be near impossible to enforce. It's really a superficial law that will have little to no effect.

Not only that, but depending on where you work, there are tax implications for employers if buildings are empty more than X amount of time (if they own the real estate). The less people in a building, the more the taxes.

They're making sure some people will never ever buy a connected device again. And they'll be better off for it.

Except when it's the only reason you bought such a product. I bought some Wemo plugs so that I can remotely shut down my 3d printers if a print goes sideways. Just because you can't think of something that would work for you doesn't mean that it doesn't exist for others.

We got rid of the penny here in Canada in 2012. There hasn't really been any issue since getting rid of it. The majority of people pay with debit/credit cards. For those who pay cash, the price is rounded up or down to the nearest nickel, which at the end of the day balances itself so there's no real loss. Financial institutions and retail establishments prefer it this way too, as there's significant handling costs compared to the value.

Hopefully the capability will also re-appear on the Android Kindle app soon. It was dropped a few years ago here in Canada.

So will they retroactively path Airplay to run over Bluetooth even in older vehicles? And will they fix their low volume bluetooth problem?

And a higher risk of many different cancers.

Similar here. 3 FDM and 1 resin printer, 7 years, 0 benchies printed.

Too lazy to read the source. Does this include digital books? In the last 5 years, I've bought books almost exclusively on Kindle. I've only bought a handful of physical books. They take up no room, never get damaged, can be read anywhere (as long as I have my phone, tablet or laptop with me), they can still be lent out, etc.. There are tons of advantages to buying a digital book vs a physical one.

So does Florida have an Amazon headquarters? I'm too lazy to google it. You know, since they're enforcing the whole return to office policy.

From google, either @gmail.com or gmail hosted domains. I'm speaking as a sysadmin who manages a pretty sizeable mail system. Google and MSN are responsible for a good percentage of the spam and phishing attacks out there.

Google should clean up its own house first. The amount of phishing and spam that comes out of Google mail servers is ludicrous (same with Microsoft). But I guess it's easier to block others that to fix your own problems first.

Has someone who cut his teeth by first using Gopher and Archie as search engines, I can tell you that it wasn't a legend. In my personal experience, Google search results were far superior to Altavista's pretty much on release.

Google search became a near monopoly because the other search engines can't compare. When it first launched, it was far superior to the competition at the time (Altavista, Yahoo, Excite, Lycos, Ask Jeeves, etc..) To this day Google search is far superior IMO to the other search engines that exist (Bing, DuckDuckGo, Yandex, etc..). People use Google search because it gives better search results. I personally couldn't care less what default search engine is set in a brower or device; I always changed it to Google if it allowed me to, or ignored the built in search engine and go straight to google if it doesn't permit me to change the default search engine. It just works better IMO.
