I used to use it and it can help. Particularly microsoft websites. It causes audio distortion on some sites though.

Errm could you specify which of the board members of Unity are board members of a Musk company ?

Because none if those ring any bells for Tesla or SpaceX (and I assume the board of twitter is now half a dozen saudi princes given the own most of it)

Copyright is different to trademark. Any business name clash would be a trademark dispute

office 365 does not work for instance.

Well that's not true

O365 via the browser works perfectly fine and has done for years. You can't install windows executable apps if that's what you meant

Probably a combination of what you buy and how often you buy things. I've been offered bribes for reviews at least a dozen times. Never taken them because they weren't worth the effort (offering gift cards for small amounts or a discount on other stiluff from them). It''s always chinese vendors and usually stuff like torches and bike accessories that are fairly generic in my experience

Yup. Nvidia are installable on any linux distro, some just have tools to make it easy.

I don't recommend ubuntu but it has an easy to use device manager that makes installing nvidia straight forward.

I would suggest you look instead at Mint which has all the good stuff from ubuntu with all the cruft removed

The Tories happened. They're a disease

Sure but who do you make the subject access request to ? Facebook Google Microsoft Amazon etc individually ?

Techcrunch article is misunderstanding the meaning of freely given. It means not under duress and with full understanding. Paying for a service categorically doesnt contradict that.

However the odds of facebook explaining in plain english the egregious privacy breaches they do is unlikely so there's prob a get out there anyway.

Can't see how it breaches consent unless, as above they don't explain what they're doing to gather info for "personalised" ads.

Am lawyer, not gdpr /EU specialist though.

Except car insurance is dearer in the UK than Florida, in fact I was shocked by how expensive insurance here was compared to the other countries I've lived in (including the US).

I'm not an actuary but I do know there are a lot more parameters to come to an insurance cost than "number of hurricanes"

Errm Florida prices aren't particularly relevant to the UK ? No ?

Agreed. Pop and mint have the easiest to use nvidia management. Fedora is prob next

Timeshift definitely works on Arch (I use it before every update) but it isn't going to help OP if he hasnt taken an image already

Thanks for that. So the % disappears in "slide view" but is visible in all the other options for viewing the posts feed. I've swapped to cards view as it's similar to slides but I get the extra info. Cheers.

Thanks for the reply. I only get the net votes. No %. I am using the version off playstore though - was that in a beta release or have I just missed the option to toggle it on ?

Speaking of which, how do I get Sync to display the up votes downvotes rather than the net position ? I've dug through tge menus but can't spot it

You're not wrong that more chargepoints help, it reduces EV resistance and range concerns, and hence helps consumers be willing to buy EVs.

It won't stop legacy ICE lobbying to delay mandatory cutoff on ICE sales.

They (collectively) have $trillions invested in ICE factories and engine designs etc that become valueless when ICE are banned. As VW found out leveraging existing factories is ineffective, you need to build for EV manufacture, which means billions in written off assets and years of delay for legacy auto.

If they can convince any market to delay the ban that's literally dollars in the bank and bonuses in pocket.

Context for those who are baffled (I was)

No Linus hasn't grabbed a red rag and isn't off to foment revolution

Thanks

What's HDB ?
