Microsoft having IE/Edge as the default browser has already cost them in the past. I don't think Apple faced anything with Safari.

The problem today with chrome is how prevalent it is and how that influences the main product of the internet (advertising), which happens to be Google's mais product too. Apple can at least make the argument that they make their money with the hardware, not the browser.

Either way, I think all OS should at least give you a list of browsers on first use to choose from.

Btd6 is the most well maintained td game out there, super competitive, and you pay like 1 dollar once and can have literally everything unlocked. You only pay for cheats to use in single player. It is one the best monetization I have seen in a game.

But you do you, I guess

Only think I know is that fragment size can't be too small, maybe you can argue that a nail is untested and thus can make micro fragments? Curious to know why this wouldn't be allowed

Edit: looks like there is a general ban on "unnecessary suffering or superfluous wounds", so if the nails are strong enough to injure but not kill, they are prohibited.

Access to my main email account (outlook) is currently blocked because someone decided to try a password from some earlier leak and locked it. It can only be unlocked with SMS MFA, which I can't use because I'm travelling abroad. There is no other way to do it. The other option they give you a form that only works if you don't have MFA set up (it says so on the faq). I even asked someone to fill the form from my home computer so the location data matches earlier accesses, but didn't work. You also can't contact support without logging in. If I had lost/changed that phone number for any reason, I would lose access forever. Luckily I will be back home soon.

stop sharing your library with strangers and kick your brother's ass when he gets you banned

when you play a game that multiple people have, you can choose which copy is being used. The owner of that copy and the one playing get banned

elon musk was asked to point a legal rep and show up to answer questions about spreading fake news and promoting criminal activity. He denied point out the rep or participating in the investigation at all. There is some backlash as the judge gave the final warning on twitter since there was no legal rep, which would be a first.

tldw: this is not a law or even a draft, it is a suggestion to lawmakwrs to start discussing the subject. the wording on it will not be carried over if it passes.

you don't see the ad and think "wow, that athlete is holding this one brand of cheese, I'm gonna buy it"

you mentally associate those two, and when you go to the supermarket, you see the brand and buy it out of instinct, since that brand gives you a good feeling subconsciously.

or if you ask yourself "I never bought parmesam cheese before, which brand is good? oh I've seen this one before, it must be good"
