The price is actually varied in France and this decision has nothing to do with protectionism. Similar decision happened previously against French companies (ex: Michelin).

Why is that incredible? It is pretty common for many institutions to have that kind of email. Universities for instance often have similar emails so that just by looking at the email you know if the person is a teacher / student /

That situation could not occur, for several reasons: - You do not want other human to do that to you, so you do not do that to them. This is the same reason why murder is frowned upon in societies - Humans are animal, and you have a natural

Sure, you can always nitpick data and refuse to draw any conclusion ever. You can also say that you cannot adjust the dollar value over long period, which is also true. You could also say that median or average do not represent accurately a

You don't know that though. They could have just worked somewhere else and earned as much. It's not like you're creating money out of thin air.

In France it is straight illegal to refuse to sell to a customer without a legitimate reason. Whether a reason is legitimate is up to court interpretation but not liking the skin color or sexual orientation would not qualify. A racist tatto

Mh that is not really my experience of talking with Venezuelians in Colombia. At all. They sure want Maduro out but certainly don't want the US in, that would be the recipe for ending up like El Salvador in 10 years.

Well that is certainly true. Ready poetry in silence is like reading the lyrics of a song instead of listening to the music. Sure you can do it but don't tell me you're getting the whole experience.

I think it depends of your scale. On most cases the real hosting cost for a dedicated barebone is administrating and managing the server. So if you need 100 dedicated 20 core server it is most likely cheaper to do that yourself, but if you

You'd be surprised... There is a surprisingly high number of sites that do not rely at all on Google to get their audience. I would even dare to say it is the majority of sites. Google is a great way to get some random folk looking for

Then why do you need a host at all? Why even have journalists? If as you say listeners and viewers are perfectly able to get the truth out of speech, wouldn't the best to only have direct unfiltered speach with nonody in between?

Symetric 10 does not even allow for streaming in good quality. 100 is good most of the time but then happens the moment you need some big chunk of data (ex: a game of 150 GB) and then you need to wait quite a bit. Also, if you have a larger

Steam can saturate a 10Gbits/s in Stockholm so I doubt it wouldn't be hitting 100mbit/s on your connection. Dropbox does not throttle at 100mbit/s either. Maybe it's a problem with your ISP or your router?
