Please note, that we have a "5 parties" system, with population vote distribution of 41%, 15%, 15%, 14%, 13%... so that's very divided over many issues!

It make sense for Valve at some point to stop supporting old stuff, the good news is it should continue to work "as is". Those that play old game, don't need the new online stuff anyway.

There were NO problem with the news until our stupid PM Justin Trudeau decide it would be great to promote our media by passing a law that would require Google and Facebook to pay when they share Canadians news.
End result? They block it, so basically any non-Canadian news is OK, but if it's from Canada is blocked. Now they look for a solution for the mess they created. Time to restore freedom and remove that stupid law!

Fewer Americans "trust the science." There are good reasons for that.

Considering the number of products they approved get removed later and those they didn't approved and are perfectly fine I would not feel any safer or in danger if the product FDA approved.
I feel it's a huge burden for anyone and cost increasing.

If the AI use the "popular" destination, its a good idea. Food bank usage has been skyrocketing in Canada. Thanks to PM Justin Trudeau and it's "I don't care about the economy budget" and crazy spending.
The good news is that Pierre Poilievre is well aware of the problems and will clean that mess and return back Canada to a free and fiscal responsible country as it was!

Submission + - UK court: Craig Wright cannot copyright Bitcoin file format (decrypt.co)
UnknowingFool writes: UK Judge James Mellor has thrown out Craig Wright's cases against Bitcoin derivatives like Bitcoin Cash as Wright cannot claim copyright on the Bitcoin file format. Wright had sued forks of Bitcoin claiming they breached his copyrights to prevent them from operating. The judge disagreed noting that Wright had failed to meet a requirement of copyright called "fixation" detailing where/when/how the original expression was first recorded somewhere in any media.
“Whilst I accept that the law of copyright will continue to face challenges with new digital technologies, I do not see any prospect of the law as currently stated and understood in the caselaw allowing copyright protection of subject-matter which is not expressed or fixed anywhere.” wrote Judge Mellor
In other words Wright has failed to show any evidence that he wrote down the file format somewhere to claim that he created the file format. This is not the first time Wright has failed to produce credible evidence in a court case: in a Oslo, Norway case last year Wright claimed he destroyed a hard drive in 2016 containing the Nakomoto original keys despite telling a US court in 2020 that he was waiting on the same keys to be delivered by a special courier. Those keys were later ruled to be fictitious.
