Welcome to the rest of the world mate. This issue here is another “no way to prevent this, says only nation where this happens” as The Onion would say.

That’s pretty much how the rest of the world works, either delivery to pickup points or delivery to person only
Mozilla is definitely trying to diversify their income to not depend on Google, but let us not forget that despite Firefox’s user share declining, their AI and ad friendly CEO keeps getting raises
in In my opinion, it’s likely that nothing will change. If this ever happens, Google might setup an “Android Alliance” with other OEMs which will reach agreements to keep Android as is but for the USA lawmakers and such it’ll seem like everything has changed.
For Firefox, I believe Google will keep injecting money in Mozilla as long as it keeps them from having Chrome being targeted on an antitrust/competitive lawsuit or ruling.
Nothing, really. Usually in the USA Apple escapes this type of rulings because they don’t have a monopoly on anything and/or because it’s argued they build the hardware for which their software run on so there isn’t anti competition (which in my opinion is pure bullshit, but what can I do?)
All Steam games have SteamDRM and you cannot run them without Steam or without the license, otherwise you could just buy a game, backup the installed files, refund the game and still have complete access to it.
On the other hand, it’s quite easy to bypass that DRM with a crack.
“It should be forbidden to pay once and own a thing forever”
Nice try, subscription salesman.

Unless they’re in India, I don’t see how that’s possible. Google will block you from doing payments if your account is on another country for too long (after a month or so from my experience), and after a year they’ll forcefully move your account to the country you’re residing in.
Source for what, the lawyers claiming the payment detail wasn’t specified?
I can’t provide you any source on how the fine notices of this nature look like since I have never commited anything to amount a hefty fine like this, but every single official document, bill, notice or whatever you may call it in which requires someone to pay something to the government, you will find extensive details on the account numbers and where to pay. They are not forgetting or not including this information.
Like I have said before and will say it again, the Brazilian law firm Xitter has hired is either comprised of the freshest graduated lawyers that never worked with something like this, or they can’t read, or they’re intentionally playing malicious to avoid paying the fine and causing as much instability as they can on behalf of Musk.
Or they could keep reading the notice(s) and check out all the clearly stated details on who, where and how to send the fine payment
Yeah but here’s the thing, the details for payment of such things is always clearly disclosed on whichever notice they’ve received, and probably this was sent multiple times. Also the lawyers appointed by xitter are Brazilian, in a Brazilian firm, so they are familiar with how this works and the system is not dubious or misleading or confusing at all.
Like I’ve said, they’re either grossly incompetent to a point that they can’t read anything, or they’re trying their “best” to avoid paying the fine but their best is comically pathetic at most.
The xitter lawyers claim that there was no bank account indicated anywhere so they “had to guess” and are demanding xitter to be unlock as they paid the fine.
In other words, either they’re grossly incompetent and can’t read, or they’re playing malicious by trying to abuse some loophole or anything to ultimately not pay the fine
EDIT: For some clarification, there is no information publicly available as to where the lawyers sent the money to, only that it wasn’t the account linked to this fine, and that the lawyers are demanding the service to be restored because they claim the fine was paid, but the correct account hasn’t received the money, so the fine is not paid. Alexandre de Moraes has asked Caixa Economica Federal (one of the government banks and the only one that deals with this kind of thing) to “fix” this issue so the attorney’s general office can analyse the process and decide on restoring xitter’s service. Elon Musk, X and the law firm representing them in Brazil are in absolutely no position to contest, much less demand, anything from the supreme court or the attorney’s general office. Their actions have shown time and time again that they have no intention to play fair and regularise the issues, and they’ll try what they can to create instability, animosity and general distrust against Brazil’s judicial system.
The information regarding payment details for fines is ALWAYS clearly detailed on every notice, there is 0 chance that they forgot to include it or they’ve made a mistake and added a different account.
The more I read into this the more it looks like the law firm is being malicious instead of stupid, they’re trying all that they can to not pay this fine (on behalf of X & Co.) and also create instability/animosity against the supreme court, specially considering what Musk has done and been doing for this whole case.
All the Constellation companions get absolutely mad at you and will stop being your companion the moment you try to do something that’s not lawful good, as Bethesda loves to railroad people in this path. It’s quite annoying since the Crimson fleet questiline is one of the best (best as strictly comparative) in my opinion, and your companions will go batshit insane against you if you follow that path.
I didn’t have any bias when playing this, and I definitely steer clear from the usual Bethesda hating bandwagon, but this DLC was so lackluster and disappointing that it’s no wonder I completely missed the two new minor companions from the DLC, specially since it wasn’t added to my misc quest log to meet and hire them, so I was none the wiser. I’ve edited my comment to reflect this.
It’s about 10 hours of content if you go slow, with a handful of new items that are mostly just reskins of existing things. No new mechanics, no new powers, no new ship parts, no new companions. EDIT: I’ve googled and there are actually two new companions, they are minor characters you meet during the main questline and once the respective quest is finished they say “meet me at X place”, where you can hire them. Mind you, this was not added as a misc quest on my log at all, so I forgot to ever check it, and judging by what I’m seeing, they are nothing different from the usual minor companions you can hire on pubs around the galaxy, nothing like the full fledged companions from Constellation.
Writing is comically bad even for Bethesda’s standards. I give a pass to them many times but on this DLC it was painful. So we got this overly religious faction that’s almost completely cut off from the rest of the galaxy, to a point that members leaving the planet literally cannot return because they cannot know the way back, except for a other faction of even more overly religious zealots, traders and you that come and go as you please. Despite all the secrecy and isolation and whatever, within 10 minutes of you arriving at their planet, you’re considered “the one” because you said a phrase that you heard every single zealot of this faction repeat it before but for them there was no way for you to know that, so then they make you do a guided tour on a cave and suddenly you’re part of the cult and everyone is fine with that. The few quests are mostly fetch quests, or the “this could’ve been an email” quests, but at least it’s all within one planet. Some quests have that trademark “moral dilemma” Bethesda is known for, where it tries it’s best to not allow you to be anything but lawful good, and the only consequences of picking the ““evil”” option is that the NPC will will raise their voice when speaking to you, and your omnipresent companions on the other side of the galaxy will instantly hate you for that. The very few choices you’re given during quests are false choices since they lead to the same outcome always.
The main quest is 5 or 6 quests long (really), and revolves around the most xenophobic and isolated faction ever blindly trusting an outsider to complete 3 errands for each house and allowing them to enter the Citadel (the big building which is centre for the faction and looks like a corporate building, in and outside) to stop the quantum shennanigans happening there and save their leader. You get there and find that the leader is a prick that wants to commit genocide of the other factions in the galaxy and you kill them and stop the experiment, which destroys the citadel. Coming back, the council of this faction, absolutely fanatic and desperate wanting to get their leader back, ask you where he is and you just say “lol he doesn’t care about you”, and everyone immediately believes you. You, the outsider that just reached this planet 5 hours ago, is then given the most important decisions as to which house shall rule the faction, and if they should continue the genocide crusade or not, but in the end it doesn’t matter because in typical Bethesda fashion, the game is not allowed to be changed since that would “spoil the fun” for your current run, are you are awarded a two room house their city and you can build 2 structures in their artchitecture in your outposts.
What also bothers me immensily is how Bethesda absolutely lack depth and scope perception. This is a major faction with supposedly an army that could ravage the entire known galaxy, but all they have is one single city that has less than 10 buildings in it and 2 parking spots for ships, and that’s it. Of course Bethesda would come with an excude for that, saying that the explosion which happened there deleted over half of the city. There are a couple of landmarks outside the city walls, which is a first for Starfield, but most of them are a 2 minute walk away.
On the good part, the atmosphere, architecture and design of the planet and everything is really fucking good, but it’s overshadowed by how absurdly shallow the DLC is.
30€ for 10 hours of what seems to be cut content.
I kow that some people will claim whatever about the Creation Engine (or call it Gambryo as if it’s some sort of slur) for the limitations and why their games are bad, but I wholly disagree. The engine is not the issue with Bethesda games, it’s who’s making the games. There are engines more limited than Creation out there (build engine) and people are making impressive things with them. You could give Bethesda Unreal Engine 5 like these armchair developers campaign for, and you’d still get the same tasteless blob from before. Their game design is severyle outdated and severely limited, as as long as they keep beating this long-rotten horse’s carcass, their games will keep falling in quality headfirst.
Mind you, this article is about the Google Settings, not Android settings. Android settings will get an UI update though, separating settings into categories (kinda like OneUI, a welcome change), but everything else should remain as ia
I think Thunderbird has feature party with K9 though, at least from my quick comparison. Seems that this is just a rebranding and UI update to Material 3 (a welcome one), but they intent to develop and maintain both apps for the time being.
Don’t these pans last like generations, being passed down? I doubt your grandma and her grandma were bothering to apply 8 coats of flaxseed oil and heating it up to 1000 degrees and the pans would still perform as expected for ages
They can’t link because it doesn’t exist. This is a green account with quite a negative reputation, their comment is just a bogus line that is brushing people off from this app. They even misspelled the app’s name in their misinformation attempt.
