They'd have to get steam to tell them each time a game was downloaded to a different device so they could invoice. And apple.. and google... and random websites..
Or they make the client phone home each time it's run, which is going to cause its own mess of issues (firewalls, that kind of thing.. some of the corporate firewalls we run our app behind would raise lots of alarm bells at something like that).
Hell that's cheap.
Cheapest quote I ever had was £15k, not including all the improvements to insulation required before the house is compatible..
That’s still in territory where gas boilers are more cost efficient that a heat pump.. a heat pump has overall lower running costs than a gas boiler
You just contradicted yourself.. what did you mean here?
Electricity is 3x the cost of gas, so unless the heat pump has the COP of 3 or above it is more expensive to run. Once you factor in the high cost of installation people aren't installing these things to save money.
And half of those use a linux kernel (the other half is derived from NextSTEP :p).
Then there's the steamdeck, which proves people really don't pick operating systems, they just use what's there... which is really the point.. you don't 'adopt' an OS, you just use shit. If it happens to run linux, then cool.
Banking is all about regulations, backed by authorities with teeth.. and if his X 'vision' is to be met, regulations from multiple banking authorities around the world.. Elon has shown he hates regulations because they're biased against Nazis, or against him generally.
He wouldn't have a good time..
Most people in the UK don't think about tax, it just happens without their input.
If you have a small business or something more complex there are forms, but they're not that complex.. you mostly just tick boxes.
The US sounds like a dystopian nightmare the way they talk about tax.
I bet they're just scanning the barcode.. image recognition is way more expensive.
It's encrypted on the client and bitwarden themselves can't decrypt it (we assume, but there have been audits that seemed to confirm that).
If you want to you can just run your own server then they can't see the traffic at all.
I just bought one from ebay from a guy that only sells libredrive compatible drives. But there's a list here https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=79712#p79712
The line rental is £5 . They essentially wanted her to pay for broadband she didn't want which is about 6 times more expensive plus an installation fee.
Nice little earner for BT. You can see why they're so keen on it
Routing would be the hard bit I expect.. if the person you were communicating was 10 hops away how to find the route? Things like BGP do that naturally, but really you don't want to burden potentially nontechnical users with BGP..
Either microsoft buys them, or they simply stop putting unity games on gamepass.
Can't see them paying it (or on what basis, since MS don't have a contract with unity in the first place).
