I don't know US law but if the contract is void the original purchasing price would have to be given back in most countries.

New comment by OoooooooO in "It is incorrect to "normalize" // in HTTP URL paths"

OoooooooO — Sat, 18 Apr 2026 10:15:00 +0000

Yeah I would say that falls under the origin defining both paths as equivalent.

> Therefore, collapsing // to / in HTTP URL path segments is not correct normalization. It produces a different, non-equivalent identifier unless the origin explicitly defines those two paths as equivalent.

You can't edit the registry without admin rights which you don't have on a work laptop.

The Duden is not official since 1996.

Since 2004 the official guidelines for the german speaking countries (Germany, Austria, Swiss, Belgium, South Tirol, Liechtenstein, Romania, Hungary - see this founding document with the list: https://www.rechtschreibrat.com/DOX/wiener_erklaerung.pdf) are covered by the Rechtschreibrat (https://www.rechtschreibrat.com/).

The official german dictionary is here: https://grammis.ids-mannheim.de/rechtschreibung/6774

Warcraft 3 custom map mod was the birth of Defense of the Ancients Allstars which then became its own game by Valve as Dota 2 (and Blizzard was pissed and tried legal stuff to reclaim) which now became Deadlock = Dota 3.

It's been a while ...

The message, at least for me, does not convey that merely opening may lead to code execution.

Console doesn't work for anything but platformers. Competitive online gaming = PC (Aoe2, BF6, Dark and Darker, Swordai, MWO, The Finals, War Thunder, PS2 etc.).

144fps + Mouse + Keyboard is just superior.
