So you bought the phone that has both? A walled garden, and monetizes your every interaction? Let's not be naive here.

It could be quantum absolute zero antigravity technology, but if it is says "Seagate", I ain't buying it.

Yep, according to most commenters those shares are of zero value, so there should be no problem sending 5% of them each year to the tax collector.

It's more likely the moment the communication dropped out was the same moment it imploded, so about 2 hours after launch.

Attached to: Meta Fined Record $1.3 Billion in EU Over US Data Transfers
Surely you realize that a fine has to hurt for it to have an effect -- it should be large enough to make it unprofitable to continue your business practice in this fashion; it's pointless to give parking level fines to billionaires, and the same goes for billionaire companies. Then there's the scale involved of these violations, with around 400 million users in the EU, that's $3 per violation, still pretty cheap all considered.

Almost anything will emit something. Tires emit rubber particles. Combustion emits soot particles. Heating plastic or putting fluids in them emits particles. Cooking emits lots of particles. Washing clothes emits particles.
Spraying ink from a nozzle onto paper is no exception. That ink certainly won't all stick to the paper.
The real question is if its a problem or not.

Worse, as WotC decides what is any of those, and you can't contest it, they can decide the use of the word "twenty" is discriminatory.

Let's not pretend that big tech is not already paying for their internet connection. Even if only sending data, I would still be paying for the pipeline.
