Nothing fundamental except fundamental laws of physics, which is why onlive failed miserably and was shut down. No idea where you got your misconception that "onlive worked relatively well". It's a blatant lie.
Modern new cars need minimum mechanical intervention over first few years of their lives. It increases as they age, but used cars cost far less regardless.
50k-ish USD is going to buy several decades of mechanical interventions for a decent used car, which will only set you back a few thousand. And Tesla, while cheaper to maintain, is by no means free over its life cycle.
So yes, all current Teslas are luxury vehicles by definition.
Technology to do this with acceptable latency does not exist, and there appear to be limitations within laws of physics that prevent it from ever coming to exist.
Another user already posted Mozilla's relevant policy page in this discussion, which clearly states that they do indeed reserve the right to track your usage patterns.
What specific mechanism they use for it is rather irrelevant in scope of this discussion. "Oh it's not Pocket that sends it, it's that other module. Pocket just handles the received data based on it" is quite a disingenuous way of dancing around the issue.
Thanks for the instructions. I hope they will be helpful to me once I switch my main desktop beyond 52ESR.
My point wasn't that I am haven't stopped pocket though. The point is that if you use default browser, without going into about:config fuckery, which average user is not going to do, firefox tracks your usage closely and is not a "privacy minded browser" by any reasonable measure no matter what PR shills try to tell people.
I will if you promise to follow my simple advice. Over last two years, you failed to do so, and instead regurgitated the same old talking points that I debunked some two years ago, as if they're new.
Which is what lead me to think that you probably do have a career in toilet cleaning. To be able to regurgitate the same shit so well, you must have a lot of experience in the field.
They have been investing heavily in PR ever since Quantum disaster hit, and a large amount of people left firefox for any other browser, because there was no longer a meaningful reason to use it.
First PR push was "hey look, we have speed parity with chrome now". Took them a few months to realise that "parity in speed and parity with features" means that people that wanted extra features you axed will leave for mainstream browser, while being on par won't make any meaningful number of people switch the other way.
So now they have been trying other ways of selling firefox. This looks to be one of them, which is just silly. Firefox, as you note, most certainly collects usage patterns. Pocket which is built into firefox literally uses those to recommend web pages you should visit next if you go to your default home page in the browser.
>"stay out of discussions you are not competent to join".
And yet, you still can't follow this simple advice, about two years after I first gave it to you when you demonstrated your combination of incompetence, opinionated ignorance and "I worked for a power company" (as a toilet cleaner probably, because I don't have a clue).
Yes, that's the myth you keep telling us, without telling us what you did there. Judging from our previous interactions, you didn't do anything that actually had anything to do with power generation, as you have systemically shown utter ignorance of the very basics of power generation.
Which is why I now just routinely mock you when you try to sell yourself as some kind of an expert on the subject.
Depends on interpretation. One of the first things taught in law school is that law consists of two parts - letter of the law and spirit of the law.
Violating the spirit of the law without violating letter of the law, provided spirit of the law is clearly outlined is a violation of the law. Problem in most cases is that there's surprisingly little motivation to enshrine this on legislative side, and equally little desire to follow it on judiciary side, because both sides like to leave themselves with maximum amount of mobility on what they can do.
While partially true, when it comes to the same games, they most certainly are.
And this is a discussion of cross-play, a function of playing the same game on different platforms. At that point they are by definition in competition with other platforms running the same game. And fortnite is most certainly one of those massive games that sell consoles.
No, it's just that it got utterly crushed in this console generation. This is two losers of the current generation's console competition teaming together to get audience comparable in size to winner's audience alone.

Ovaries perform the comparable function in ladies.

No counter arguments from me on that one. I'm looking for alternatives to switch to right now, because 52ESR is going away soon.
Yes, it's this kind of bullet point regurgitating PR shilling that I'm talking about.

So is mine. It still shoves "pages recommended by pocket" in my face when I start typing in an address.

Pocket tracks your site usage to "give you a better home page by providing recommendations of sites to visit" among other things.

You almost got it right. Actually, "I'm insulting an idiot".

Have you tried reading it above? It's outlined in quite more detail than "single word with no context or argument".
While partially true, when it comes to the same games, they most certainly are.

"Assertion made without arguments can be dismissed on the same merits".
No, it's just that it got utterly crushed in this console generation. This is two losers of the current generation's console competition teaming together to get audience comparable in size to winner's audience alone.
Didn't read the contents then. Oh well, can't expect anything else from an AC.
How can you tell someone is utterly ignorant of how power generation works?
They will site "intermittently able to generate excess power" as relevant.
And you might want to read what I'm arguing against, as you just confirmed my point. Well done.
>While in the summer, it can cover a major amount of the electricity consumed. Still worth it.
Except it doesn't, and it's not.
>Yeah, about that...the northernmost one is at the 60N latitude. Solar conditions slightly better than in Berlin, actually.
It's just magical in your mind I'm sure.
>Again: unless you heat with electricity, which outside of France I'm not aware anyone is doing.
Thank you for once again sharing with us that you have no clue.
