look like google got off easy. most likely it is going to cost more to fix the problems google caused. it is not cheap to fix city streets. wonder how much it cost google with off the record payments to get off so easy.
why do you have to add in the cost of the internet when you are going to get it anyway? I have been a cord cutter for 10 years and as long as you are careful as to what you are subscribing to, you will come out cheaper. I think the problem is, new cord cutters are not doing their homework. They are not looking at the costs of individual subscriptions, they are not looking at equipment costs and more.
1. fear of the unknown. 2. too many distros making it so confusing to choose 3. pick the wrong distro and you will have to create your own partitions which will scare off potential users. not all distros will auto create partitions like ubuntu.
sounds more like the real reason for the closing is the big players were not getting a cut. wonder if they offered a better deal on licensing if google got rid of the portal.
this means they will be pulling more content from prime video subscribers. It was bad enough t be in a middle of a prime video selection when it got moved to the amazons imdb freedive ad supported channel I guess they learned their lesson with the Anime Strike channel. that channel required a prime subscription and an additional subscription for the anime. nobody wanted to pay extra for the amazon channel so now they are trying ads..
as far as roku, I got tired of waiting through five minutes of commercials only to be told the video was not available or getting three minutes or more of commercials every seven minutes. it is now gathering dust.
I don't have too much of a problem with push notifications, it is those videos I want stopped. some you have to wait for it to download before you can do anything with it, some you have to look for on a page because you hear it and not see it, some blocks what you are trying to read because it won't close.
Then there are those sites that constantly bomb you with their subscription popups. how about stopping those too. maybe if they stop the notification ones, it will stop those.
any video with subject matter someone does not agree with. So does this mean youtube is shutting down sine they cannot play any videos without offending someone?
SUSE was distro that introduced me to linux. Though I no longer use it, I will always remember it as my first. I am still using linux about around 15 years later. Might have to give it a try again to see how well it aged:-)
how is it a mistake when it happens to one person who happens to be the top dog at the service? could it be the rumors are true that he is getting ready to run for some political office and need to get rid of postings that could hurt him?
jamming phones in prison also means phones are jammed outside the prison too. cell phones in prison is a problem and a way to stop them is needed but punishing those who live, work close or driving down a road beside the prison is wrong. True the distance from the prison would be limited but still...
several major companies said they will restrict their websites from viewers in the EU, wonder how many will now follow through or if they were just empty words
I have been listening to audiobooks for around 20 years. fortunately I have job where I can listen while I work. I found I will listen to audiobooks I would never consider reading and even after listening I still will not read them but I will listen to them again.
What I found interesting, is the way the reader will modulate their voice between characters. You forget the reader is male or female with the way they read for both parts and can easily distinguish the different characters.

It is because of stupid and ridicules actions such as this is the reason I refuse to have a facebook account. you just cannot trust them.

How about the "Rotten Apple Award"
I guess apple is preparing for the right to repair laws. They are going to make things difficult for diy repairs.

sounds more like he is trying to save money and get the government to foot the bill for moderating his and others websites.
did the phone companies allow robocallers to overwhelm their customers in order to sell protection?
how else can incumbents win relection?
now they will be making more robocalls to pay the fine...

tomorrow they will be suing the electric company for providing electricity that help facilitate piracy.
I will stick with the free stuff.
can you really trust them to give you a ticket after all, it is still moviepass? sounds like another bait and switch scam to me.
wonder if this means more retailers will require membership to shop there in order to bypass the cash.
