And I am 100% convinced that this will not work.

It should be the other way round. Telco providers should be fined for any spam call and -text they don’t prevent from happening.

Stupid fucks do.

“I grilled this pasta for hours and hours, but it wouldn’t go soft!” (Terry Pratchett, “Opera”)

In the 60s of last century (IIRC, was before my time) there was a product called “Millical”, a powder to be mixed with water that provided (according to knowledge back then) every nourishment for the day with a total of 1000kcal (hence the name) per “day pack”. Basically a diet powder. Best comment was “It tastes boring, so instead of water, I mix it with cream.”

Well, you can always ass mayonnaise and an egg to fix the ratio.

I would only do this if I seriously wanted to annoy someone looking over my shoulder while baking.

Yeah, but if you do crazy replacements on recipies, at least don’t complain to the recepies author, and don’t downrate the recipe because of your own ineptitude.

On the other hand, if you find a substitute that actually works, post it as an alternative.

It’s because we don’t use a VAT, so taxes are not consistent rates by item or by locality. So for small shops with irregular supply chains, you price the thing however matches your bottom line, then let the register do the work on the final price.

So if the register knows the price, why do you leave normal people hanging? For me, that sounds highly unpractucal not to know what an item costs, or being forced to know all the local taxes and do the calculation myself.

Serious investigation into copyright breaches done by AI creators. They ripped off images and texts, even whole books, without the copyright owners permissions.

If any normal person broke the laws like this, they would hand out prison sentences till kingdom come and fines the size of the US debt.

I just ask for the law to be applied to all equally. What a surprising concept…

Amen to that, brother.

I fear for the future, because this generation won’t know something if it hasn’t been tictokified or taught by an “AI”.

Have you tried what civilized countries do? Like putting prices including all taxes on the price tags?

I run a computer on Win7 at work, because it needs some important legacy software. It can’t be containered because it has a nasty licence manager.

And my oscilloscope runs on Win98.

For a ship that the authorities said had lost power it was rather lighted up like a christmas tree…

Well, the article didn’t say it.

I would also prefer not to listen to him. Regardless of the daytime.

Probably just another conservative nutjob terrorist.

Still be worth it. And isn’t Walmart changing prices on a regular base, anyway?

Here would it be a simple database push, and the price tags would update with tariffs, but we don’t have them.

Just like Nazi Germany back then. June 22, 1933.

About anything to do with computers. Anything.
