At least in Denmark it's illegal to use the word 'juice' if there's any sugar water in it. If I see a juice on the self I can be certain it is 100% juice (maybe made from concentrate but that must be written somewhere). If it's not then it is "nektar"

There's a "Prevent screenshots" checkbox in the settings under "Look and feel"

Computer phone. I mean, it is a combination of a computer and a mobile phone so why not?

I got one shipped to Denmark after brexit and IIRC they handled all the customs and everything.

Ninja edit: It looks like you'll pay taxes and customs fees on top of it if you order directly, so it might be a good idea to hunt for a reseller: https://discourse.osmc.tv/t/european-orders/96161/2 - apparently I was lucky and happened to order when they were trialling IOSS

The markdown didn't work well, this link should so it.

For future reference, you can create a link by just pasting it as is or writing my linkhttp://example.com which becomes my link

The closest I can think of is a Vero from osmc.tv but that's breaking the 100 mark.

I've got the old Vero 4K model and it works like a dream in conjunction with my Jellyfin server (it's essentially a Kodi box so you can save media on it locally too).

EULAs are already by definition unenforceable in the EU

Another 20 on DNS

Huh, I thought you used the small screen because it is hard to use the big screen on the toilet.

There was some thing about NewPipe not liking that they used the NewPipe name in the app name and a logo that resembled a bit too much. The NewPipe x Sponsorblock dev decided to rebrand to Tubular and everything is as you expect it otherwise.

Unfortunately I don't have time to find the issue right now, but it was discussed somewhere in their repo.

In EU at least there's a new law-mandated warranty period for the replaced part but I of course can't say if this holds true where you live.

Please no

Farnsworth, is that you?

Same here but the arena and my work is within a 10-15min bike ride, so not that bad. But I'm not in the US too.

You can get a small high-frequency whistle you can attach on the front of the car that should scare them away. It is outside audible range and supposedly has lowered the amount of incidents from a test phase our local elder care conducted when they placed them on all their cars.

Fun fact, Finland and Sweden were also third world countries under this definition.

The Danish word "effektiv" I believe carries the meaning "not amateurishly put together" so it might be more of a grey zone leaning into illegal still. Some might after all still call a vaccine effective if it "only" prevents 95% of infections against a certain virus and has a 2% risk of certain moderate side effects.

But interesting tid bit as it's also relevant in a Danish context. I didn't know about it.

Law regarding fees on drives and the like: https://www.copydan-kulturplus.dk/presse/pressemeddelser/lovaendring-om-kompensation-for-privatkopiering-er-vedtaget-nye-medier-er-omfattet

The law regarding circumvention of copyright measures is part of the copyright law, more specifically §75c stk. 1 & stk. 4:

§75 c - It is not permitted to circumvent effective technological measures without the consent of the rightholder.

[...]

(4). Effective technological measures in subsections (1) and (2) shall mean any kind of effective technological measures which, in the normal course of their operation, are intended to protect works and other subject matter, etc. protected under this Act.

Stk. 2 also creates some draconian rules that basically prohibits you from creating tools that help others circumvent copyright protection.

Ah, he must have went to the American campus of Hogwarts

In Denmark it is lawful copies of a media. Problem is that almost all media is copyright protected and it is illegal to circumvent that. So essentially it is a free tax for the organization that represents the artists without any checks and balances to make sure those money actually get distributed to the artists afterwards.
