other companies arent engineering serial numbers and other identity information into every component, even shit as small as halleffect sensors, so it cant be taken from a damaged device to repair a differnt device of the same make and model.
To act like what apple does is an industry standard is nothing but blatant apple fanboy propaganda.
Somewhere, in the far distance, if you listen closely… you can hear Conan Obrien having a meltdown.
You and I both know that Apple doesnt do this shit for cost efficiency.
They do it to make make shit worse for consumers and “unauthorized” repair services.
Will Tesla autodrive have a sudden surge of crashing into Synagogues and jewish pedestrians now?
it never ceases to amaze me the amount of time, energy and money apple spends engineering things to be worse for customers.
That sounds super useful for simulator games.
whole new buttons or just remap face button functions?
Fallout 4 is basically a Fallout 3 remaster, already.
Same bugs, same basic story ( just flipped to parent searching for child), with the only significant improvement being graphics… Which are still 10+ years behind everyone else.
and if its anything like the oblivion remaster, it’ll be difficult to mod with no official mod support and an entirely different graphics engine running on totally-not-gamebryo.
Its all repression and projection.
They accuse everyone of being pedophiles, because they are pedophiles. (Which makes you wonder where their child rape dungeon they actually have is located, considering how obsessed they were with the idea in “pizzagate”)
They spew vicious hate on gays, cause an overwhelming chunk of them are gay and hate the fact that others can live free and open while they “have” to live suppressed, repressed and in the closet to keep their ideology… Doesnt stop them from soliciting bathroom BJ’s, Frequenting RentBoys, and watching tons of Gay porn though…
Right wing religious conservatives being pedophiles?
How fathomably believable.
Pointless.
You’d need 500 signed affidavits to be taken seriously. Anyone can just forge a signature. Affidavits are signed under oath, under penalty of law.
Would it?
Russia cant even stand up against Ukraine and is resorting to terror tactics in the false hope it’ll break their will, when instead all its doing is pissing them off even more and galvanizing them against Russia and strengthening their will to fight.
With Ukraines stellar accomplishments against Russia so far, expansion of the war just involving NATO states on the border of Russia/Ukraine would probably spread Russia’s military to the breaking point with having to deal with Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania and Poland.
Not to mention any other eastern european NATO members… Though Slovakia, Romania and Bulgaria would probably mostly be used to keep Hungary and Turkey in check, since they are not exactly NATO friendly countries, Despite being in NATO, with their asshole leaders. Especially Hungary.
Which opens up US, France, Germany, UK and other naval and air powers to deal with China… Not to mention any asian states that may choose to get involved out of fear of eventually being on the receiving end of China’s expansion… Or currently facing the early stages of it Like Phillipines, Vietnam, Etc in the south china sea.
I cant see china doing the calculus on this and finding the conditions favorable.
A lawyer would be if you were harmed
A lawyer can also help guide you through the legal and procedural issues. Lawyers are not for just if you are harmed.
It would probably also help you a bit more with legitimacy, if you can get a known lawyer helping you… Cause any crank can make a claim, but a known lawyer wont risk their reputation/license/job on happenstance with little evidence.
Yes yes, but think of the shareholder profits. Thats what really matters here, not these childish fantasies about the horrible nature of frakking and the fact that it makes water flammable! /s
anyone that is upset over this should be thrown in the furnace with the statue. Let the spirit of Sherman live on.
These fines worked in 1957.
They don’t work today.
Its not an overreach to increase fines to a relative point commiserate with current earnings, so that they can actually harm a company and by doing so discourage future illicit behavior.
To try and claim otherwise is some corpo rat bullshit.
These fines come on the heels of willful behavior, that they believe they can make money off of even accounting for the fines… Which turns the fine into nothing more than a tax. With higher fines, that can destroy their profits and damage their company, they won’t be so eager to pencil evil into the expense line.
Google made 100 billion last year.
300 million is barely a blip.
The fine should have been 30 billion.
if the fines arent big enough to seriously hurt a company, Then the fines are not big enough to change their behavior.
They just become a tax on evil.
Don’t owrry, he’ll file a spurious lawsuit against them soon, which they will immediately settle, in a totally-not-legalized-bribe means of smoothing over the upset.
I know all about Notch being a massive piece of shit, and am 100% in favor of him sitting alone in his big mansion, festering in his own filth.
Republicans/Conservatives in a nutshell.
