Non-toxic glue would be starch or gelatine - both used as base of some ‘real glues’, both with valid culinary use, including exactly this use case. We just don’t call those ‘glue’ in this context.

I like our European rules, when we are guaranteed PTO by law and employers would often force you to take it when you accumulated too much unused off days. The system cares even for those who would not care for themselves.

Otherwise they should be forced to state the game is a rental not purchased if it requires a server that may shut down.

But that is what they already do. Currently this might be hidden in the EULA, that no one reads, but even making this plainly visible during purchase wouldn’t change much. I is not like the players have much choice when they want to play that specific game.

Those would be different kind of regulations. Not just ‘you need functioning brakes’ kind, but also ‘you must serve this route that hardly anyone uses and and you cannot make any extra money from’. Or ‘no extra fees, even where some people would pay them’.

If that means proper regulations (as it should) I bet they would hate it.

And that is the problem with this idea.

Subscription to a software is not mutually exclusive with self-hosting. Developers deserve to earn money, especially those who do not rely on collecting data, showing ads and enshittification of their cloud platform.

Sounds like what happened to Kerbal Space Program 2… it didn’t end well

Sounds like a mobster kind of favor. If that is true, then it sounds like Sony took advantage of Arrowhead weakness.

It would be like click-baiting, bur worse, as the titles / leads would be crafted even before there is any article.

‘Pay to show a link’ is the way Google wants us to see this legislation. But linki are not what the news sources are fighting. The problem is Google presents the news and other information in the search result in the way that users often do not need to leave Google and foll9w the link.
Someone produces content so people visit their się and make them money, but those users get the information they want (sometimes incomplete or broken) straight from Google and only Google gets the money. That is not fair and that is what laws like this try to fix (better or worse). But Google and such have powerful propaganda and here we are.

Another thing is: users of services like Reddit or Lemmy also do similar thing (posting content in a way that preventing monetization at its source), so they have extra reason to take Google side.

Deponia series from Daedalic Entertainment. The first two games are really great. The other two not so much, though.

5 year old may remember his family killed by Israel.

Valve is the company responsible for unlocking my PC for gaming. Most games can now be played without using Windows and Valve is mostly responsible for that. Because most game developers do not care and would rather force you to use proprietary OS than let you use what you prefer.

Yeah ‘make a better tea by making it taste less like a tea’. I have seen a lot of that from people who just don’t like tea.

Though, for me that also include Brits, who spoil a good tea by adding milk ;-)

Have you ever worked with a computer with modern general-purpose OS like Linux and no RTC? It sucks. It is not strictly necessary, you can live without it, but you need workarounds for basic stuff timestamps in log files or in the file system. At least for a minute until NTP connection is established, but may be longer when internet connection is not available. And when routers are rebooted most often? When troubleshooting broken internet connection. This is also the time when properly timestamped logs could be useful.

And battery backed RTC is cheap. It doesn’t fit on a Raspberry Pi board, but can easily fit into a router case. No excuse for omitting it.

This would only give more power to the remaining billionaires, who won’t disperse money on their own. This is why it must be a systemic change and not a volunteer action.

Isn’t that their long national tradition? Like with paper technology, silk technology or porcelain technology?

They would say: that was because you used the cheaper service instead of us and they botched the repair. It is only a problem for NEWAG because the world found out.
