I mean, that's on the IT department in most countries. Like if you don't have a smart phone, you don't have a smart phone. If they want it for the job usually they would need to either provide an alternative or provide the device.
I don't read this as grandfathering due to people leaving. I'm reading this as "oh shoot some countries don't let us just jack a price by 50% no notice so we legally need to provide a window"
even if it did, its not like any existing motherboard requires internet to boot, you can just change the MB clock to be prior to the expiration and theoretically it should boot regardless of restrictions.
Just yesterday I was fiddling around with a logic test in python. I wanted to see how well deepseek could analyze the intro line to a for loop, it properly identified what it did in the description, but when it moved onto giving examples it contradicted itself and took 3 or 4 replies before it realized that it contradicted itself.
Well, thats a shame. I have always preferred TP-Link due to their pricing and freedom of software/smart home integrations. This definitely puts a damper on that.
payday still exists? I haven't heard of the game in years. I'm surprised they even attempted this as a whole because it sounds like it's only going to piss off their remaining userbase.
BEING SAID, I think their main issue here isn't the fact that the price went up in the first place, it's that they decided to make it almost 25% more as the increase after having it be ~52% off for ages. This rollup should have defo been more gradual if they wanted people to not be pissed about that. An instant 50$ increase in price is a tough amount to swallow for a 12 year old game, regardless of if DLC is involved, even moreso when it boosts the price to $170
Tipping as a social obligation when eating at dine in restaurants which in turn allows the waiter to be paid less by the employer and theoretically lowers menu prices.
this is definitely a placebo to try to delay the EU from stepping in regarding it. I still think only a year expansion isnt enough but, it's something I guess.
I let my previous employer bully me with scheduling like this for a solid 2 years before I put my foot down and said I can no longer be scheduled earlier than 9. I got so sick of getting out at midnight, getting home by like 1, and then having to be in at 6 day. Especially since I'm not one that can just go to bed, it takes me an hour or two to wind down, so it ended with me going to sleep at like 2/3 just to get up at 5, chug a coffee and then drive to work for 6. This happened every sunday into monday, so I would always start my week dead to the world.
They tried the whole "well you'll get less hours" stich with me but like, honestly at that point I would rather have /less/ hours and have proper sleep than deal with being sleep deprived for the week.
I don't think the term "Falls behind" is being used in a competitive entity vs entity in the way you read it as here.
I think it's just being honest to the viewer in terms of hardware and software compatibility. Many go into the quest to swap to linux expecting that there will always be a replacement, and that's simply not always true. Your biggest thing you should expect going into it is that it is not a 1:1 transition, your lifestyle and expectations the OS will provide will need to change and I think that was the general ideology that the author was trying to present.
Many move back to windows because they have incorrect expectations of what to expect out of transition because they either don't like change, or don't want to have to troubleshoot things that just worked on windows. Restructuring your life includes sacrifices that usually have to be made during the transition, and those sacrifices can include things that cost money to replace such as hardware peripherals. Some things are just misconfigurations and can be tweaked once you find out what to change. However, some things like the overall lack of support for an item you need to wait for support, replace that item completely which may or may not have an equivalent, or if you have the skillset required design your own interface for it.
I won't trust them to not screw me over for things outside of my control.
I was looking into Sony for my last phone, but one of my friends ended up getting one before I did and he hard pushed me away from it. He said it was a hassle for him to unlock it, and that they moreorless said that the act of unlocking the bootloader will void his warranty (which is not legal in the US) and that after 2 tries of unlocking and having it not unlock, he returned it and went to another company (I think it was oneplus?), he also wasn't impressed with the performance vs price that he was getting out of it.
this is honestly my ideology at the moment... like freedom was the main reason I'm on android. Price wise it's already getting close, and most flagships have removed microSD card support by now. I'm seriously debating my next phone being an iphone just because most of my family uses them, and my convenience being on android is being actively removed anyway.
I can't even imagine that transfer, I've been android my entire life but, every time I talk to my family I list what I want in a phone, and every time I talk to them it seems apple has marked another issue off the list with an update.
Yes, I would rather have no email if there is nothing to update. I mark every one of these style emails as spam because I deal enough with garbage mail, I don't need legitimate companies bolstering my inbox to get their name shown. Cause that's the real reason for that. It's meant as a reminder that the platform exists, to encourage you to go back onto it again.
interesting. The other person explained what it was, I never knew there was a diff between them. Sounds like its similar just not super tough anymore.
