For UK numbers I can also recommend these guys: https://www.aa.net.uk/telecoms.html Their technical support is actual tech support, with tech guys that won't take any bullshit, especially if you have 2FA (TOTP-based)

Not piracy, but the revenue the studios get out of Youtube would seem way less than what they'd get out of a paid platform, so they're still loosing out compared to just licensing the content to all paid platforms.

I don’t. Only ever used it once when my previous employer was using them and I had to have one so I could try out our product. Deleted the account as soon as that job ended.

Do you want privacy conscious or “off the grid”? For the former, Apple is the way to go; so far they haven’t done anything privacy-hostile and I personally trust them. However, they do still have a lot of “cloud” services (including some th

Microsoft has been pretty toxic recently regarding what they’re doing with Windows 10 and it’s privacy implications, the Skype dumpster fire, etc. Do you really want to contribute to this?

GDPR subject access request (and deletion request for the "locked" accounts) to Facebook, and if that doesn't work complain to your country's privacy regulator (the ICO if you're in the UK).

The most likely explanation is that you had applications that were trying to connect to censored servers, so it was just always retrying, but never getting any data back (so the download arrow wouldn’t show).

It would be naive to think they’re not doing this already - now they’re just trying to be upfront about it.

Elementary is good in terms of looks on the face, but starts to break down as soon as you dig deeper. Inconsistent updates and strange issues requiring manual intervention via the terminal are still there.

The thing is, Windows 10 is starting to look more and more like a Linux distribution. Half-assed and inconsistent UI, broken updates, etc. I'm fine with this in Linux, because it's built by people who donate their time for free, a

Not much to say about Tesla (haven't been following the story), but one thing that I don't get with Snap is why don't they cut their overheads to try and get back in profit, instead of chasing the impossible dream of getting

Maybe we should treat the root cause and not the symptom? If people don't remember stuff because they don't need it then maybe the tests should not depend on remembering useless stuff? At my job for some reason I never need to for

Definitely. No matter how good or bad the result will be, competition is always good, especially in the toxic mobile carrier industry.

You'll essentially need to build a ledger, keeping track of customer accounts and how much balance they have left. When closing their account, refund whatever's left to the last payment method they used to fund the account.

Cookie "warnings" and forced "consent" popups (with no or difficult opt-out) are not GDPR compliant. GDPR mandates that all tracking and related bullshit should be opt-in. So the annoyance isn't the GDPR, it's

I used to believe that, but there was a recent article on here a few days ago about cartels diversifying their sources of profit by dealing stolen fuel, so although I support legalising drugs, I no longer think this will put an end to the c
