If you’re a convenience store but pallets of Coca Cola, then they kind-of can. They can just blacklist you from buying Coca Cola in the foreign country.
It’s also different because they’re selling you continuous access one month at a time instead of a physical good you drink and they can’t take away from you. I’ve been to places where service costs are lower for locals than for tourists, and this is told to you outright. Stuff like museums, taxis, etc. It’s a similar idea YouTube has.
Prices are also almost never based on cost, they’re based on what people will pay.
I live in Canada, and cars are more expensive here than in the USA. US dealerships near the border refuse to sell new cars to Canadians, even though it’s legal for everyone as long as you make sure to pay duties on the way back. I’m guessing each brand has some rule against it.
Ultimately VPN users aren’t a protected class so it’s legal to discriminate.
There is some problem with that as you say, but the company doing the poll is pretty well-respected by the west. They were also labelled a foreign agent by Putin at some point, so I looked at their opinion.
There’s an estimate that <10% of people in Russia have motive to lie because of power they’d lose if their opinion got out, and the theory is that this is usually constant. Unless Putin is scarier than 2 years ago you can still compare differences in opinion, even if you don’t trust the magnitude. The guy also said that you can look at the positive responses as having a share of neutral because people who aren’t informed just go with the majority instead of saying “idk”.
But no matter how much lying in polls there is, the amount of people worried about sanctions went down compared to 2 years ago, and compared to 2015.
Which makes sense considering how much physical capital western companies left in Russia, since VW can’t take an auto factory back to Germany with them even if they can take some equipment (but not all).
Can you not do something with gparted on a live usb? Or are the files that fucked?
naps2 for printer/scanners. Better than anything I’ve used for scanning. Also great for arranging small documents.
Software that comes with printer/scanners usually suck
Android games are different because old ones use currently unsupported libraries, and you’re not supposed to run old versions of android. That’s more a problem with how Google thinks android has to work.
PC games and PlayStation store games don’t really make sense to de-list like this because win10 is very backwards-compatible with software, and PS4/PS5 games that are released and work don’t need any upkeep.
I’ve learned about group theory and isomorphisms, I’ve looked into how the incompleteness theorems work in depth in formal education.
All that made me do was run away from math for a while because everything is overwhelming, it feels like learning civil engineering by looking at a giant 18th century cathedral, having to learn every part of how to build it, and then building it yourself, and then moving on to more and more buildings until you can derive how to build a skyscraper by yourself.
Maybe I’m ready to get back into heavy math and should read the book, idk. Maybe I missed the forest for the trees that I’ve studied, so I missed out on some beauty by trying to analyze how every single tree works.
You can find subtitles online separately, because the subtitles aren’t really cracked down on by copyright enforcement (since it’s only text files that you need to have already found the movie to use).
I like your idea of something like an audio track, but only for dialogue/audio that was changed in the translation. This doesn’t really exist, but it’d be cool if it did, especially for stuff like The Simpsons where jokes change to make more sense to different audiences.
They got rid of pop up headlights but allow this bullshit.
I’d rather get hit by a NA Miata than a modern Ford F150
“have you tried doing a backflip 360 noscope into nosegrind into mctwist into nose manual folding your laundry and working how you’re supposed to?”
Tell me HOW to do stuff, don’t just tell me to do stuff.
Therapy was a good start to stop wallowing and beating myself up, but my journey into actually doing stuff I need to do is still long and arduous.
It’s annoying how inconvenient it is to exercise with a phone nowadays. The armbands needed for a phone compared to an old iPod are comically large, and they’re so big they bounce around.
Smart watches aren’t quite what I want, they’re annoying because they’re not quite phones, and you still need a phone hanging around if you’re using Spotify or other apps and control the media using the watch.
An iPhone 4 or even iPhone 5c sized phone would be perfect for me
For everyone else needing to block stuff:
Torrents:
Streaming:
Weird that it listed crackle, I thought that was owned by Sony and had licensed stuff on it. I remember using it twice on my PSP because that was the only streaming video app for it.
Also weird to list snagfilms which was also licensed stuff
The forest is bad practice with passwords, since you get an email of your password after setting it.
The tree is OP not knowing how to describe why it’s bad and saying the wrong reason why.
What’s the difference between this and kicad?
Doing something with Kicad has been on my to-do list for a while
This is probably good justice, but idk if it’s going to reduce drunk driving.
It’s crazy to me that in America drunk driving (with no victims) isn’t a felony on its own. In Canada it’s their version of a felony and generally a way bigger deal. In America you seem to only have consequences when someone’s hurt.
Crazy that MADD was able to lobby to get all states to have 21 as the legal drinking age but not able to lobby to make drunk driving a felony because it’s too ingrained into America since people like going to bars but don’t wanna pay for cabs and have no other transit options.
My Brother laser printer/fax that looks like it came from the 90s is amazing and works with everything on default drivers. Mac, PC, Linux, Android, all of these work fine for me. The brother driver gives you more options if you care to install it, but you don’t have to.
Inkjet is a different beast. Especially the ones that don’t let you print B&W if you run out of colour ink, or that check for “legit” ink refills.
In an economy as tightly controlled as China, how much does deflation even matter?
Also I wonder how everywhere else having inflation will interact with this. Is China just getting affected because the rest of the world can’t afford basic necessities anymore? The article kinda touches on reduced demand from countries with inflation abroad causing this, but also doesn’t really explain anything other than going “lower number is uh bad”
I don’t really need the locally trained AI to recognize general handwriting, only my own.
I could provide a few pages of my own training data (maybe write out a few pages of “quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog” and other stuff like that), and then ideally it flags stuff it’s unsure about and I clarify some more. Maybe find garbled nonsensical sentences, realize it’s probably a mistake, and try and fix it.
I assumed the leaps in AI would have taken care of this by now, since detecting handwritten letters from touch pen-strokes existed in the 90s. But I guess handing it a chunk of text is too different of a problem, instead of feeding it stroke by stroke?
