That is exactly what happened here. And it doesn't seem like they (ruling parties and 'their' media) have learned anything.

Because politicians and media keep them so. Often polls would show that public is more progressive than the lawmakers (e.g. about abortion laws), but the ruling politicians will still say how Polish people are not ready for such 'radical changes' or just how 'wrong' that is...

In two years the government hardly delivered anything they promised. And not just because Duda was still a president vetoing everything. No surprise people are disappointed.

That is what I always suspected and why I take my time to uncheck all these.

But that would be cookie for the website I am visiting, not for a dozen of 'partners'. And these are the 'legitimate interest' on-by-default switches I am talking about.

And it should include this mysterious 'legitimate interest', or whatever it is called - always on by default in 'my choices', even though no one seems to be able to explain what this means. How can I make an informed consent on something that vague?

On the other hand, not 'Reject All', but 'Reject All except functionally necessary' (which should be precisely regulated by the law), otherwise there will be no cookie to remember our 'reject all' choice, which I am sure the corpos would happily use do discourage us from clicking that.

Good excuse. They could just wait for 'their' president. We will see how much of those laws will be signed when the ne president takes the office. I am afraid that when they get their own president the law changes won't be on the table any more. The presidential campaign did not raise my hopes.

The new (current) government promised a lot of improvement, but did very little. And during current presidential campaign (elections this Sunday) they don't even pretend they care much about LGBT rights.

Yes, Xorg being suid is stupid. That used to be needed due to several historical reasons, but is not any more.

But for 'su' or 'sudo' suid is still the right mechanism to use. Capabilities won't help, when the tool is supposed to give one full privileges. Of course, in some use cases no such command is needed, then the system can run with no suid. Similar functionality could be implemented without suid too (e.g. ssh to localhost), but with its own security implications, usually bigger than those brought but a mechanism as simple as suid (the KISS rule).

Of course, you are right.

I mean, the punishment was the occupation by forces which won the war. Americans and Russians had to control Germany for some time, as their current government could not continue for obvious reasons. The cruel part was giving control of half of the country to Soviets. BTW, worse was doing the same to Poland, which was victim, not the aggressor in this war, and other countries in similar situation.

But Germany were the baddies in WW2 and this was a part of their (cruel) punishment. How did Ukraine deserve this?

Or, maybe, USA and Russia want to get half of Ukraine each, for free?

We do have a successful bus manufacturer (Solaris). Does this count? We also have lots of car parts industry here.

Amazon already makes money on many products that should not be sold, as are fake or/and dangerous. They will still be making money by selling smuggled good. 'It is not us, it is the independent seller. We just provide a platform. Will still work.'

Most of the time, yes, but not always. Sometimes you actually need local time stored rather than UTC. Simple example: alarm clock. User wants to be waken up at 7:00. No matter if it is summer time or winter time. Even if they travels to a different time zone - still will want to be waken up in the morning. If we store this time as UTC much more unnecessary and error-prone conversions will be needed. Similar issues may arise with other calendar events. Of course, at some point this will be converted to UTC for comparison with actual point in time.

There are lots of systems (embedded, mostly offline, abandoned by its vendor) which are not easily upgradeable and their timezone database cannot be easily replaced. Not everything is a PC getting its regular software update.

In case of Stellaris it is more like you would buy Stellaris, Steallaris 2, Stellaris 3, etc. Each big DLC is like another game in the series. And the smaller ones (like species pack) are completely optional. For me this is an example of DLC done right.

It is not like e.g. City Skylines, that most DLCs just give some minor additions and for a meaningful change in the game you would have to buy lots of them.

Isn't he supposed to be 'the left'?

Not the first one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCqu-LjCOy8&t=6629s ;-)

We need to see Doom running On these planes first. That is always the first step.

Single use plastic items laying on the beach is what bothers people the most, but this doesn't mean it is the biggest problems. There is much more plastic in the oceans that we do not see.
