    Hate when this shit is pulled, wonder if it om the pro. Imagine paying pro prices for unstoppable ads.

    This is also directly targetted to people giving additional money. If you are connected to the internet you are likely, or previously, a subscriber. If you are not paying a sub you are more likely to disconnect and not be affected.

    Off they go out to sea so, Finland has every right to place whatever they want within their country. Finland was also not involved in the Cuban Missile Crisis.

    It was a crisis specifically because of the nukes and one that came to an amicable agreeemnt benefitting both sides.

    Putin is an idiot who is responsible for the growth of NATO.

    Is this German or US law because where I am it would be a high bar to be fired for anything other than downsizing while out on sick leave.

    Also the doctors note tells the company what they need to know. If they have doubts they can contact the doctor and verify the note.

    Also a lot of decent jobs will have extended sick leave, I have been out for a few months at a time and had company pay the entire time. They subtract whatever is paid in sick pay but you have your entire pay.

    And thats is all this is, it isnt for war profiteering it is for poor practices, sure it could be more but people really lose sight of things when it comes to fining these companies.

    The fines for targetting children with damaging content or promoting harmful posts should be way more than this and than they are but this isnt an action they directly profitted from it was a lazy and harmful missing of the required mark.

    Im not this invested in defending meta but 102 million is a lot for one country to fine one company. Ireland fined the company nearly 1% of their global net for one issue.

    This isnt a new thing. I have not seen plastic grocery bags when I go shopping, or get deliveries my entire adult life. It doesnt do anything to you but helps the planet so why moan?

    I just dont like cases and take the risk. Phones are nicer looking without.

    He didnt specify which would lead me to believe profits. Neither is a good split, he is charging as much as spotify for content he did not create and keeping half.

    Fifty fifty is what MKB said was the split, which is a predatory figure. Apple charges less and people are up in arms about their predatory practices.

    I dont know what the sticky hands comment means.

    Defending vases was great with Ezio.

    People give out that they dont add anything and have the same glitches across the whole francise. This could be good if only it wasnt ubisoft making it.

  • Can someone please tell me why the gmail android app does not allow for this? Is there some system condition that disables this feature. It is surely related to android becuase iOS has signature matching. Google owns every step of this.

    Wedding Confusion

    I an lost with what to wear to my wedding. It is a summertime lakehouse venue and I am thinking 100 different things. Half of me wants to stand out that bit extra and get a dinner jacket/tux. Or else a three piece mismatched set, like matching waistcoat and pants with a different colour jacket. The other half wants simplicity with a two piece and suspenders. I like three pieces because they keep you looking together throughout a long day and night. I am mostly against check patterns and am leaning toward greens like sage or emerald with cream but open to options. Happy with earth tones or natural colours.

    I watched beautiful Kate years and years ago, my first Mendo movie, and I loved the music. I used to listen to the main theme and "this little Bird" on YouTube but the latter has been removed from everywhere I've searched. If anyone could help I'd really appreciate it.

    I check the spec and it has a wifi chip but the os can't see it. I had a wifi toggle on windows 11 when I got the PC and also when I used a mint USB boot. Driver manager sees nothing to update or install. The mint community page has failed to post my question a few times so now I'm here.

    I want to get a sync box but they are not 4k120. The FancyLEDs box only has one input meaning I can't use a PS5 and set top box or Apple TV. Any advice or successful set ups?

    Not sure if this is a real thing or a fully fleshed out thought

    I am looking for speakers, decent quality and nice looking that doesn't stand out too much. I want it on a bookshelf in the kitchen and another in the sitting room. I want it to connect to a home server but also Spotify/streaming. And I'd like them to link together. Basically I want the house listening experience to be seamless when going between different rooms, 2-4 speakers. Audiobooks and some music would be stored on a Nas and most music and podcasts would be Spotify. I'd prefer to interact with it through my phone, Android if possible but not completely necessary. In my head I imagine walking into a new room and tapping the speaker with my phone to switch to that speaker. Is this a real thing?

    I see a lot about source codes being leaked and I'm wondering how it that you could make something like an exact replica of Super Mario Bros without the source code or how you can't take the finished product and run it back through the compilation software?

    Hey, I've just been getting into a couple graphic novels and I've really enjoyed Invincible the show so I got the first book/comic. I checked Wikipedia for clarification, there are 25 issues in the run but then there are compendiums and complete libraries...both of which cover different things? The compedemdium Vol 1 says it covers #1 to #47 and that's 22 more issues than I thought there was so could you help me out with the lingo used in the space?

    Long press on links to show the link address. Pressing images open the image in the viewer which currently doesn't happen for me in comments on posts with images directly posted. Option to disable all data saver options, I'd like all images to open at the max resolution.

    On relay for Reddit there was a function where I could use keywords like "Putin" and it would filter out all posts with that word in it's title. I yearn to clean up my frontpage.

    The Missing

    Just finished season 2 and wanted to discuss. I think it was a little bit long toward the end and behind the first season but otherwise it was enjoyable. The actress playing the daughter was very good, creepy though.

    So I've been out of the game a couple of years, I did a bit of calisthenics but I'm too fat now to go at that and also I was never flexible which brought a bit of a wall to that path. I've about 10kg put on past my resting happy weight and 13-15kg past my prime. I'm looking to drop weight first and foremost and maybe build stamina. I have my own barriers tl push through, hoping this restart takes but mostly I now have to be self motivated because a change in location means no classes only gym access. So... Could anyone provide a quick 45-60 minute routine to get me started. I'm 183cm and 100kg.
