I’ve seen this on a few sites. They aren’t even allowed to make rejecting cookies more difficult than accepting them but right now the legal people are trying to educate before they starting enforcing these rules. I expect the lawyers at the Mirror know that this is illegal but think they can get away with it.
All those things like having to “customise” your cookies to turn them all off, and “legitimate interest” is all illegal under the rules but they’re trying their luck.
I was probably never gonna sell anyway.
The Thing
Loads of them are doing this now, I’m pretty sure it’s illegal.
People should be scared, this kind of thing will likely be normal eventually. It’s amazing how quick people just become normalised to shit like this. I remember a Reddit post about Angry Birds 2 where someone had posted a picture of it requiring an internet connection to play and then had just written “Uninstalled” beneath it; now like 80% of the free games out there require an internet connection to work. We could have Netflix that’s half the price and included password sharing, we could have all games working offline, and so much more, but there’s so many people out there simping for these corporations that don’t give a fuck about them.
In Morocco most people stop at red but then they’ll drive down the wrong side of the road to jump the queue and put themselves so far over the line they can’t even see when the lights change.
I know a few people who live in Southport. They said that all the rioters turned up in coaches and on trains from all over the country and then kicked off after the vigil. None of the rioters were locals from Southport, and after everything had calmed down a bunch of people from Southport turned up and fixed all the damage to mosque (for free).
Well everyone who’s heard of it probably owns it and the new edition just added better graphics and all that behind the scenes stuff nobody ever cares about. I thought many parts of the OG game looked better in SD than HD anyway.
I’m running openSUSE because I like lizards.
Context is everything. Police officers are police officers but they’re also humans and they get stressed and do things that they wouldn’t do if they were thinking clearly. For all we know this guy might otherwise be an upstanding officer who immediately regret what he did.
It’s the UK, not the US. They don’t just let all the police walk around with guns. This guy’s a firearms officer and if they’re called to an incident at an airport then something pretty serious is kicking off.
If you got really stressed at work and made a split second decision that you immediately knew was a bad idea you’d want people to know the context.
I’m not defending kicking the guy in the head, I’m just wondering what it takes for someone to get to that point where they think that’s a good idea.
Homeless people should just sleep in their houses.
I’d like to know more context about this whole situation, apparently there was a big kerfuffle and another police officer had to be treated for a broken nose.
This guy looks like some dumbass kid who got himself over-excited after being given a gun and a badge though. He’s probably set his career back by 10 years after this dumbass move.
I use it out of laziness. Despite all the shit they still have great customer service. About a year ago I ordered a £150 multi-tool and they accidentally sent me a £200 reciprocating saw. Due to a complicated living situation at the time it would have taken me about 6 months to send the wrong tool back so they just said I could keep it and refunded me so I could buy the other tool again.
The other thing I like is that I’ll just see a price and buy it easily. I’ve often shopped around and found something cheaper but then the whole purchasing process is terrible. They add on a bunch of extra costs, then make me create an account, then add on more costs. By the end I could’ve paid less and got it quicker from Amazon. Not always the case but it happens often enough that I will just go to Amazon half the time.
But I guess the main reason is that I hate being forced to create accounts and so many shops require that for no good reason.
I don’t think charging for content is the problem, it’s just the way some companies do it.
He’s just endorsed Harris.
Tbf, sounds kinda like the homeless man wanted to get caught, maybe for the free rent.
He’s obviously gonna quit before November, it’s just a matter of how long he’s gonna drag it out and how much damage he’s going to do before then.
It really wasn’t all that good, they just didn’t fuck it up.
Some of the special effects were pretty ropey and that power armour looked terrible.
The difference between each generation of consoles is getting less and less. The latest jump doesn’t really give you anything the previous gen didn’t give you, it just has sharper graphics. The graphics aren’t even that much better.
