Its actually illegal under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 in the UK for a product to force a change on its functionality after you bought it.
Also surprised if EU law will allow this ?
I for one will be seeking a refund for the products either directly or through a court just to show them up.

Update Note Showing Consumer Rights Act 2015 "Goods Not Fit For Purpose" alone is enough to demand your money back. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2015/15/section/10
and as it relies on digital content to support them and this is where the main problem is, section 40 applies where they changed it for the worse

Sony Music responsible for recently threatening to take radio streaming apps to court for streaming radio stations outside the UK under some false pretence.
They also couldnt give a crap about vinyl quality for their artists and have had entire reissues that were faulty and never repressed. They're seriously starting to piss me off recently. Going to donate to Archive.

Am I the only 1 that could hear the slurred words in his speech for a good couple of years ? Surely someone with health issues where it impacts the brain such as strokes shouldnt be anywhere near any sort of power.

Americans dont get Our flavour of irn-bru nor do they get bovril though due to foot and mouth concerns.

Shitter is an app for Mastodon on F-Droid. Dont know why they decided that. Back handed compliment of a name. Work on an app then call it Shitter ! ? IDK

Probably Adobe.... /s

Thats instant grounds for breaking Consumer law here in the UK. I'd be returning the TV and if they didnt accept. Small claim court.

My biggest problem with unlocking the bootloader is that many apps look for an unlocked bootloader as "Its rooted" according to that app but unlocking the bootloader and being rooted is 2 different things. I only want to run a custom rom I dont want to root. But you end up having to do the whole thing and running Magisk to hide the root and unlocked bootloader.

How the hell is M.World costing $1200 a month ! ? Its not that heavy on activity. Uni or Mastodonapp.uk probably has more and costs less to run. I mean I run cupoftea.social with 5000 users at £80 a month.

No they'd have to make the lights just work if the EU got involved. AFAIK

I have a HiBy R6 Pro but honestly the software on these arnt great and the screen hasnt worked properly since the within the 1st year stopping me from selecting track 2 without trouble. But yea anyway, I mostly started using my Wireless Momentum 4s for portable use and now just use my phone for the most part.

Paypal was built on the idea of a system that was without regulations that were tough. Paypal in the UK operated out of Ireland up until recently out of FCA control knowing full well they were committing fraud on a grand scale with things like "We're closing your account and if you want your money back get in contact with us in 180days time" which was the email people used to get when the system didnt like you for any reason.

Localized entirely in your kitchen ?

There is so much rubbish made by Colossal Order for CS1 I'm sure they were just told by Paradox to do it and they're laughing at paradox.

There are just expansion packs though.

As always with the Crown Prosecution service in the UK they love to bully and make an example of Autistic people. Only added by corporation running the court system, The CPS' Prosecution barristers are known to enjoy a life of luxury and gifts from them but you cant touch any of it.

Im not bothered about adverting your products as long as its not just advertising in every single post and theres a human element to the social posting Rule 5,6 of Cupoftea.social (my instance) "No accounts setup purely to sell something / Fake Engagement (Such As Investments/NFT/Cryptos/Wealth stuff) There has to be a human element in your posting. ""No spam , Excessive promotion , Porn or S**t Posting, Its just not for this server " Mastodon.social is full of crap and its user numbers are mostly from spam bots and porn.

He actually joined mastodon in November last year but left again because some wasteland instances took to attacking him AFAICR. He just wants to wallow in his own crapulence now

I built my pc (The one in the avatar for PCGaming here) out of glass and the distroplate from aliexpress. Its pretty good actually.

There was a demo for a while but its gone now before the launch of Early Access. Its alot like Settlers.

I Remember seeing his name in a list of "celebs" that had signed up at the time.

No it is taken automatically from the link.

I've been playing it. The Depth of Field was really broken and my main issue. Theres alot of issues both in performance and bugs in the game like the crops and mining areas not setting properly which you have to relocate to the same place in order to fix. Been getting anything from 20 to 60fps on 4k High but I have a 3090 so id expect it to be more based on the gfx. What I'll also say is it doesnt seem to have the same soul as the first one nor any of the simcity's

cupoftea.social says hello :wave: runs on glitch and has boosts in the timeline.

Apologies. Didnt know.

The one I remember being one of the first PC games was The Adventures of Captain Comic. I also remember the first game I played with a sound blaster card instead of PC Speaker was Blues Brothers Jukebox Adventures.

@InfiniteHench yea i never liked the whole thing even if it was initially tongue in cheek then turned into a serious brand.
