If your smart switches support it (Tuya/Lidl gateways doesn't, so there is still work to do), you can get some cashback when they momentarily turn some devices on or off to help offset imbalances on the power grid without relying on gas turbines.

Software is allowing governments to provide services online, 24/7, making driving to their overly large buildings a thing of the past.

Software is changing the way companies work with their customers and suppliers. It cut business trips so much that airlines like United had to review their routes at some point.

Software allows more trains to run on each track, and improves cross border services in dense areas in Europe

Software developers who support open source initiative such as LineageOS, ChromeOS or lightweight Linux distributions allow to keep devices for longer. It is valuable when manufacturers and Microsoft would like you to buy new hardware.

YouTube tutorials and online marketplaces allow customers to fix their old stuff or to buy second hands. It makes the economy more circular than it used to

Simulators allow new generations to fly cessnas or race cars on 1000 electrical watts at home, while video games allow kids to have fun together without racing cars on open roads like you used to

To resolve this thing while still preserving users privacy (we avoid finger pointing !), Nyarch linux proposes a disruptive workflow, challenging users with anime and pop culture related questions to prove what they're up to

Some people would like to pretend means of production are holy assets you're supposed to value and trade (INVEST!!! making value is for losers and _these_ workers), when it's just a consummable that should serve a purpose right now.

A computer is a tool and customizing the case is not unheard of.

Thank you for desmystifying the Mac. Users know best.

Pick your side (or not), but you'll never get into it without a streaming website as it's going too fast and in too many ways at once for physical distribution

I'm sure the studio will watch the fallouts with amusement, waiting for them to come back

However, dealing with that kind of free market big business loving buster is still a huge business risk that requires management and negotiations. I can get it if Sony limits their business risks at some point, even if the severance initially costs them.

it would be so fun to be an insider to these negotiations

I let the Deezer bot surprise me OPM and I absolutely loved it

I also use it to listen to the Chinese rap, which would be a pain to get otherwise

Otherwise their human curated playlists are real good

But I agree with you, it's not how you "own" media. You only get the service to access media

On their TV offering, in 2018 and 2022, they did pull the rug themselves by stopping to broadcast the free to air outlet which has #1 audience on the market, TF1, and this commercial dispute went to courts

Long story short, it's big business (not just inde studio does politics) and they're notoriously anything but victims at it

Also, on previous commercial disputes, these french studios and media outlets held an all or nothing stance, often asking to be completely removed from the offering of ISPs if they can't get the money they want.

That's their way of getting what they want ; and as the ones who support this kind of move put it (so pretty much THEM) : you have the right to contract and do what you want with what you own

It's embarrassing enough for Sony or ISPs, it's highly visible to consumers, so they will not accept a middle point like you describe.

I was getting concerned, but if only StudioCanal movies are getting pulled as Sony doesn't need to pay for that, *it's but a loss*

The company was bought by the same tycoon who bought mainstream media to get frequencies, then replaced journalists with conservative anchors who ditch the news and rant about feminists and Muslims all day.

They were recently known for Bac Nord. It is honestly a very good cop movie, but that also outrageously rewrites a case in which dirty drug dealing cops were busted, in case some viewers are not willing to make the diff between reality and a good fiction

They made the headline around the Cannes festival this year, saying they should no longer work with woke movies.

Their case is getting embarrassing in France, as their owner is now the first (but not the only) purveyor of obscurantism for the masses

I ended up flying back home with some oxford shirt from the Tesco, and it's really cool (vneck pull over - tie - shirt sets were sold out with my size unfortunately)

> Simplified flight physics: The flight simulator is designed for casual exploration rather than high-fidelity aerodynamic training.

Google made flying possible with 6 controls only, and it's a feature!

It works normally, but they indeed have no busines helping you prepare for ATP license exam with beautiful maps in the browser

It'a an arcade game and it's fun

Free Market advocates already did that move after walking in Hong Kong and other Chinese cities, at times they were more qualified in partisan politics than proficient in Chinese. We had been hearing their absolute "facts" and only alternative theory for a full century afterwards

I guess it's better to quickly correct that Europe isn't a lawless free market and a huge corpus of regulations still exists, even if the specific problem to approve new sunscreens is a different process in here

regulation and economy can be discussed, but EU isn't an example of free market. Sunscreens are still heavily regulated like everything else. FDA and all their processes aren't perfect, but they do a good job overall

You can find lists of ingredients banned in cosmetics in the EU, or across EVERY industry in general

Perfume manufacturers are the only ones who get away with virtually everything as they don't have to declare their ingredients (but "perfumes" are also an ingredient in a bunch of cosmetics, so here is the loophole as Europe always has loopholes)

AWS Budget can mostly notify you indeed, and terminating instances from that isn't as straightforward as on Azure

Hardly a decade ago, a well documented part of prism was on how Berlin was being scanned all the way up to the chancellor

Could the Dutch government think they were any different to the Germans ? Did they not use outlook ?

You put a lot of hope in managers from large companies and governments who get their rent and yearly bonuses no matter their performance, and will never ever be made redundant

consider Hanlon's razor before being mad and sending everyone to court for treason

Either ways, something needs to change
