And if Google went nuclear and starts embedding the ad into the videos themselves?

Yes I did read it. I was pointing out that all this will do is screw over citizens of poorer EU countries. India vs USA was simply to make it obvious why the concept of geo blocking makes sense. Germans will on average have stronger buying power than someone in Latvia.

Steam is a storefront, not a competitor to game publisher. It's effectively no different than Lidl agreeing to run a regional rebate program for Samsung TVs in Latvia for whatever reason.

The geo blocking enabled cheaper prices for certain countries, not higher. The only people who would have an issue with it is people from richer countries that for some reason are jealous of lower prices in some countries.

It would be terrible if you want to be serious about it. There is a ton of great information that would be lost if it happened.

The driver is fully responsible, but Tesla are also making the big bucks with misleading marketing of how good their driving assistance is. So it's more profitable to keep people unaware of its actual capabilites.

That would never be an option for Stackoverflow

Wheels is something you use when packaging your module for upload. You will automatically use a wheel package if the module you are downloading was uploaded using wheels and your pc config is compatible with the wheel package.

What wheels does is it pre builds the module for a given system (doesn't need to be a very specific system) so that you don't have to do it locally when installing (if you got a compatible config).

It's not something users have to think about, for them wheel package == smaller and faster install. Pip will by default prioritise wheel package over source.

How is it morally grey? What factors makes it potentially unethical to buy a game from Larian? I don't see an angle that wouldn't immediately imply that it's unethical to buy essentially any large company.

That logic would apply to alien spaceships too though

No link or explanation for what it does?

Edit:

hyphenate-limit-chars: 10 3 4;

In the CSS rule above, the last declaration indicates to the browser that it should hyphenate only words of 10 characters or more and, when it does, three is the minimum number of characters before the hyphen and four is the minimum after the hyphen.

Just block it? Do you really browse c/all without filtering out unwanted communities?

I have no idea how to install all the different program types (flathub, db, appimage, etc.). Windows has exe. I click "install" and boom, it's done.

That's strange, I've always felt that installing stuff is a lot easier on Ubuntu than windows. It's just apt install <program> and apt remove <program>. Having to manually download and run an exe feels outdated in comparison.

I can't even select a file because there are no previews. Just a gazillion blue squares with names like "dlcosn_3947912947".

Curious what distro you installed that had that issue. The only preview issue I've encountered was on win10 where I had to pay for windows to support H.265 to give me previews of H.265 files.

Things are constantly breaking. When they do I look up support articles that are written in fucking Klingon and sent to the terminal to type in commands that always return some sort of generic error "command not found" or some shit because the solution is written for a different one of the 862700422 available distros.

That's a fair point though. If you aren't willing (and most aren't) to learn enough to be comfortable with the terminal, it can be very easy break something when you are forced to interact with the terminal.

The owner is retiring and seems to want to shut down the business. Their latest power supplies are only given 3 years warranty despite the standard being 10 years.

These news doesn't come as no surprise unfortunately.
