Re: UNITE
How could you be anti-union if it appears you don't even know what a union is for?

As a UK citizen, the idea that each state has incompatible laws is just STUPID.
Northern Ireland - The Great Unknown (by the English):
It's not a sentient being because you call a function with words and it returns an answer and then everything stops, it's not like it's left alone with its own thoughts and will suddenly come to you and talk to you. It's like worrying if printf is a sentient being or not. It plainly isn't.
Lots of comments about cookie banners but we really should be more interested in not being able to challenge automated decision making and the other stuff they've buried in this bill.
Friends don't let friends be Express readers.
* Actual Express headline.
"We have never – and would never – do anything to intentionally shorten the life of any Apple product, or degrade the user experience to drive customer upgrades," Apple told The Guardian
That statement has Johnsonian (or Trumpian) in its level of shamelessness, but I guess there are enough of the credulous who blindly trust such nonsense that it makes annoying the rest worthwhile.
All of it, but only when opened in front of a class?
It probably can't cope with a projector being plugged in and displays and stuff changing since the last time it was opened so it decides it needs to count the displays again... really... slowly.
Or it doesn't like not having internet.
Or God knows what, it's Adobe.
The next time it happens Dabbsy should say "Excrement! I want you to uninstall Creative Cloud. Uninstall it! All of it!" then his students will be sending on their desks and shouting "Oh Affinity My Affinity!" like in Dead Poets Society. Probably best to do it on retirement day just to be safe.
I said "if you think ChromeOS doesn't break" not "ChromeOS is broken".
The crowd-sourced support forums are, of course, unhelpful. People posting the same problem over and over, people replying with "I've also got that problem", and sooner or later threads are locked with no clear solution. But at least it confirms that ChromeOS does break.
will the current technological gatekeepers be able to bribe lobby all of them?
The answer is yes. From the Cory Doctorow article posted above:
In 2018 — the year before Tim Cook warned his shareholders that their dividends were at risk because Apple customers were choosing to fix their gadgets, rather than replacing them — Apple led the anti-repair axis in fights against eighteen state Right to Repair bills. All eighteen bills died.
Some are, some aren’t. In Germany, it does *not* report to Parliament.
So the EU allows for national variations, then.
“Intervenes in a case….they’re not supposed to”. Yes, you do agree with me.
Why should MPs be able to intervene in an investigation run by an independent data protection agency? Would you like MPs to intervene in court cases too?
They now have to account for what is done cross-border, and also apply other countries laws inside their own borders.
The source you linked to doesn't seem to have anything to do with that assertion.
Hint: where was Schrems II adjudicated?
The Irish DPC asked the Irish High Court to refer the case to the ECJ because it required a ruling on EU Standard Contractual Clauses that are used to send data to the US. It would not have made sense for the Irish High Court to make a ruling just for Ireland.
