I really don’t think nationality matters here, since there are plenty of greedy asshole investors US side too. Just look at REV and what they did to fire trucks

None of that stops using the car. The problem is when a solo game becomes unavailable, due to some online feature being shut down. If the game was sold as an “online solo game”, the customer is aware of what they are getting into. Not so much if is presented a “solo game with online multiplayer mode”.

While ideally online games would become available in LAN hostable mode, the other element is ensuring that games companies aren’t misleading customers (intentionally or otherwise).

Yup, since for certain products types it might change what I select. If the store is only 20 minutes away, then hopping down to pick it up may be favourable.

On issue is many stores, including Beat Buys are turning the v websites into marketplaces. You need to pay attention to the listings.

Itâ(TM)s all about finding the right balance. In the US itâ(TM)s the opposite, where they are scared of taxing the rich, to the point some have more wealth than some nations. This all while the US is bleeding money and more focused on taxing anyone, but the rich.

Given ByteDance's apparent ties to the Chinese government to ban Tik Tok, this would likely give validation to other countries to ban Facebook, on the same basis. Maybe Meta is looking to get banned elsewhere?

Here it’s is more than backup or redundancy. It’s also about limiting the ability of one bad actor to wipe out both the redundant copies and the backups. This likely means a push location, with versioning, that requires someone else’s keys to delete repositories.

And consumers aren't willing to pay more money, unless its something niche. The problem maintaining a small outfit. unless there are ways to reduce maintenance fees?

So the tariffs are only impacting China and not doing anything to bring jobs back to the US? Not sure whether thatâ(TM)s considered winning?

Exactly. I will blame Trump for a lot of things going to shits, but the American aviation infrastructure has been notoriously under funded for a while and has lacked the steps to modernise that we have seen elsewhere. The fault is likely on congress and those managing the infrastructure. Between the 737 Max and this, the FAA is probably going to improve how it does things, but here we can blame Trump for staffing that will lead to future issues.

What I am curious now is how they will address all of this going forward.

We can blame Trump for a lot of things, but not this particular instance. This would have happened before Trump and I doubt Biden had any say in this either. This was either something coming from the FAA or congress (I haven’t read into the history of the move).

One thing I do question is given that some operators didn’t not want to move, that they didn’t opt for a hybrid solution, with some operators in the local location and some in the remote location. At the very least it would have provided some sort of redundancy, since communication lines over a distance would risk becoming a weak point.

A1 moderation?

From what Iâ(TM)ve seen, there is more and more AI generated content there by day, with little evidence to label or ban. in addition to any other negatives, this is certainly another one.

Iâ(TM)ve always been bothered by the some of moderation, but itâ(TM)s their site. At the same time Iâ(TM)ve been looking to see if there is either a self-hosted equivalent or one that can run locally? Any suggestions?

Quire possibly, but right now I don't think anyone has presented a proper path forward.
