I’m on a Poco right now. The hardware is great, so once you remove as many invasive built in apps as you can you’ve got yourself a great deal.
Look up how to use adb bridge to remove apps. Most are safe to remove, SOME are not. There are lists online that will tell you which is which for your make and model.
He’s just trying to sell books now. Ignore him.
Yes, I admire her so much for doing this. She’s a real hero.
Parents should say no, and now this will make it easier for them to do so :)
The advertising standards authority use a nutritional profiling model. If the food is High in Fat, Sodium, Suger (HFSS) it gets a higher score. Some points are deducted if it is high in fruit, veg or nuts. If the food is above a certain point threshold different advertising rules apply.
This applies to preprocessed food. Not ingredients you would use to prepare your own food.
I don’t know about your other questions but some of the other rules are interesting…
You can’t use licensed characters or celebrities to advertise to under 16s.
You can’t condone or promote unhealthy lifestyle or eating habits. Ie. Eating a massive bucket of ice cream in front of the playstation.
You must not take advantage of a child’s vulnerability by appealing to emotions such as pity, fear, or self-confidence, or by Suggesting that having the advertised product somehow confers superiority, for example making a child more confident, clever, popular, or successful.
You must not present your price in a way that suggests children or their families can easily afford it. “Only”. “just”. Etc

This is brilliant! You must have been practicing for a long time to draw so well.
He chose a word poorly. Get him!
Just some good ol’ oppression of the prol’s through class.
Some members of the staff also felt their compensation was better than they might otherwise have earned in India, the defense argued.
Is this a real lawyer? They clearly have no legal case. I hope the book gets thrown at them.
Lol. I’m glad you’re not my dad. The horror.
And shame on business insider to down play it as someone complaining they’re not ‘cute’ enough.
Thanks for pointing that out, it is Discovery’s decision. For their part though, Sony is still at fault as they didn’t demand perpetual use rights for content sold on their store, or at least a full refund for the customer.
You put that into words perfectly. I think it’s the only game that proscribes an emotion so successfully through a gameplay mechanic. It’s the most real, raw and visceral sense of loss I’ve ever felt in a game, film or book. Truly unique.
This is not gonna be the vote winner they think it is. And fuck them for trying.
Sorry wired just came to hand. You can find it referenced elsewhere.
But it did change from ‘have to’ to ‘have to, if possible’ which is a massive climb down. It’s basically not possible to have a backdoor in e2e encryption so I think it’s dead in the water. It may even make other companies shift to e2e to avoid this legislation, which would be ironic.
And I think the quote is from the minister in charge of the bill, so he/she would talk it up.
The bill is awful. But at least it’s weak(er) and awful.
Time will tell.
I think the bill words it as ‘if feasible’ or something similar. But that’s enough wiggle room to drive a bus full of lawyers through.
Sure. I’ve not read it either but here’s what I’ve found.

Age verification isn’t so clear cut but there’s room for a lot of hope. What ‘age verification’ is going to be in the bill is yet to be determined by Ofcom.
… Which is law makers kicking the can down the road… or passing the buck. Probably because it’s unenforceable and a technical/ privacy nightmare. Maybe it will amount to something, in which case we should be afraid, but I think most likely it will amount to not much.
Full bill is here if you have a spare 3 days to read it all - https://bills.parliament.uk/publications/52368/documents/3841
After bouncing back and forth between the house of lord’s and the house of commons This bill is a shadow of it’s former self. I’m glad to say.
Three things that were massively damaging for privacy and security have, as far as I can see, been scrapped.
And what’s left in the bill is going to be regulated by Ofcom, a toothless underfunded shell of a regulatory body.
There’s a whole section of law that determines when the police are able to take DNA samples or fingerprints, and more laws for how long they can keep that information.
It’s regulated. And bringing face recognition under biometric regulation is a no-brainer.
