The thing I hate about such things is that you need to decline each and every time (/. no has it as well). Yet when you agree once, you will not be able to remove it or it is very hard to find the setting ti change it or they hope you forget.
If they would ask you each month, regardless of the answer you gave last month, it would be ok.
I would say: fuck the US companies. When I was there I had no idea how much Iwould pay after looking at a pricelist. As a European I am used to pay what I see listed. Not more. Not less. Taxes and service is included.
When they changed the system for e.g. restaurants, they added the 16% service to it as well as the tax.
Tipping is bot needed and I hate it. I do not tip the bankteller for doing their job. No need to do it for a waiter. And yes,I thought the same when I was one.
The thing I want is the price tge monthly fee + a line per extra cost. And with extra cost I mean things like an international call or a call to a sex line. Not things that should be in the monthly cost, like toilet paper use. And as a European, I also want the taxes included. Ot is not as if I am not paying them.
I used to call international as well. I used to call over VoIP. With the App on my phone, I paid 1 cent per minute and after er a topup of 10Euro, igot a month free.
Do look if you top up, as the prices will increase. Just look for another one http://www.voip-comparison.com... or search for Betamax Voip Providers.
If the one you had increased prices when uou seeyou need to top up, just go with another one and change your login and pasword in you app.
You can then also use it if you are in Germany and need to call home.
I have a business idea how to make money from this. I just go to a business and offer them the "Modern Automation For Italian Anti-call Insurance". That will prevent the business of receiving thousands of calls every day of fake reservations. Because it is a nice business you have there. Would be a shame if something happened to it. So get your insurance at foo-getta-bau-tit Inc.
You just gave me an idea what to do with one of my my Raspberry Zero W. I have 7 and only real use till now for three. This is number four. It will be running it on a separate network as I won't use it.
Probably because it was known years ago. Just look at U+0391 U+0410 and U+0041. Or at U+0430 and U+0061 and if you find a word that would use such a letter, you can make serious bÐnk.
And if you are not convinced yet, we also have the worlds best beers and chocolates. The waffles are only for the tourists.Oh and the company pays for public transport, I get 8 EUR per day in meal money, I just received 250 EUR in Ecochecks and I have extra hospitalization and pension insurance.
None of these are a rarity and neither is the 13th month. But be warned, the standard amount of holidays is only 21 days for (I think) 35 or 37 hour weeks, so what most companies do is let you work a bit longer (I work 37.5 hours per week) and let the hours accumulate, so you get more days off.
Some sectors will give extra holidays and you might get extra for years in a company and/or age. Friend of mine has 50 paid holidays. Try to get into the banking or insurance sector.
And larger companies will be better if days off is your thing. Join a union or not. Nobody cares. And they are not trade unions, so you can pick almost anyone you like (again: or don't)
You can also join any moment you desire. Nobody will ask if you joined or not, because nobody cares.
Working in Belgium and some of the things I have had happened to me.This is in several companies: On a Friday at the end of February: Hello, you still have not taken your 5 last days and you need to take them at the end of Febrary. "So that means I have the week of next week?" Yes. OK. Have a nice day I see you after that. They literately told be right before I went home, so no way to hand over anything. Yes, my manager was there and wished me a nice unexpected holiday.
Another one: "We see you have worked 2 hours extra, when are you going to take them this week?"
And a nice one. We saw you worked from 9 till 5 for the last year. However we forgot to mention that this did not include you break, so please work the legal hours from now on and sorry for the misunderstanding. (No, they never asked to do those hours they paid)
In Belgium a manager of a supermarket was fired, because he came in early to do extra work, so his employees would need to do less. That company had a strict "no overtime" policy. Mind you, before they fire somebody, they will be warned at least 2 times if not more. No, it did not matter that he did not claimed the payment for it.
And having a healthy work-play relation is important in most European companies. In many places people will work 4/5, meaning having one day extra of and earning enough with the 4/5th to make it interesting. This on top of e.g. homeworking.
Yes, I do have 35 holidays and unlimited sick days, because being sick is not something you know how long it will take. Could be one day, could be 10 months.
Oh, I know how to do that and even know what the words mean. But you need to know how to do it and ther should be no reason to use such a complex system as Dynamic DNS. We do not connect with POTS anymore.
One provider even told me that it would be cheaper not to have Dynamic IP. He implemented a simple webinterface where people could add a CNAME to their domain name similar to their email adress with a . instead of an @ so easy to remember.
your.name@example.com became your.name.example.com Easy as.
Consent isn't valid if it's only given under coercion
I should tell that to my HR department who gave everybody a letter where they told that they could take pictures of me, use them as they please and also for my badge and something else. I agree on the badge, but not on the rest of sharing my data.
They gave everybody a letter where the options where just one and that was all of the possible ways. They even told us that we had to sign, even if we did not agree with it. And it said something along the lines of "I sign this out of my own free will". Well, if you say that I MUST sign, even if I do not agree with it, then it is not really free will, is it.
I am still waiting for the HR department as I (and some of my cow orkers) have not signed anything and some have signed, but changed what it said.
I have my own domain name and I can have unlimited aliasses at my hosting company. So I have separate addresses for separate websites, companies or other situations.
e.g. I will have bank.com@example.com, slashdot.org@example.com, spamaddres@example.com, holiday2018@example.com.
So if bank.com sends me an email, it will be to the address that they know, being bank.com@example.com. If I get an email from them to e.g. spamaddres@example.com or any other address, I know it is not them and thus a fake email. If i get an email to bank.com@example.com and it is NOT from bank.com I know that they have either been hacked (and not informed me) or sold my address. Neither wil be a good thing for their further business with me.
It is also very easy to filter as it is some sort of two factor verification where both from and to need to be correct.
And if an email address is compromised, I can just turn it off after I have changed it at the company.
The only company I was actually getting spam from was ebay. They gave the email address to the sellers and they started spamming me. SO no more goods from ebay for me.
All other companies behaved till now for the last 10+ years I use this system.
So why not make such a product and sell it? I do remember those things, but would not be willing to pay extra for it.
Because I also remember what percent of my wage I had to pay for it. I solved the issue with the channel switching. I realized I did it so iften, because nothing was interesting enough to hold my attention. So I cut the chord.
You forgot to ask yourself if the law is just and if the pu ishment meets the crime. To blindly follow a law because it is alaw is like blindly follow an order.
The reason this is not possible for the vast majprity is because ISPs want to milk the 'limited IP4' adresses as much as possible. Even though I am 24/7 connected and so is everybody else that has a cable or xDSL modem, they still do not hand out fixed IPs, unless you pay a lot of money.
That means connecting to your server at home is not easy for many people.
If people had a fixed IP, this would be a LOT easier. An I mean a LOT. It would cost the ISPs the extra income from companies that now pay for something that is not really needed to be paid for.
The thing that was asked for was change of character and that is what you got in a small doses. Keep up that "fire hazard" and you will be without a job very soon. Then the real transformation of your character begins. With no income it is as if you start playing a whole different game. And all that because you decided to change one thing.
My malware was already on my phone and I can not even remive it. They are all g om Goigle. I do not need, hanhout, gmail, youtube, docs, druve sharing, chrome and all th rest.
Yes, just lie any other addiction. Yet before this people couuld claim that gaming can not be addictive. Now they can not anynore. Bit like drug use. If your country will do anything about it is a different matter.

Is that a lowercase L or an uppercase i? lIlIlIIIlll
People got along just fine before the USofA existed and before English was even spoken as well. So what is your point?
Probably because it was known years ago. Just look at U+0391 U+0410 and U+0041. Or at U+0430 and U+0061 and if you find a word that would use such a letter, you can make serious bÐnk.
(Luckily it does not work on /.)
The friends of my enemies are my enemies, so you are lucky I do not have any.

Step 1. Start wearing different clothes, like a dress. You will notice that oeople start reacting different.
