Very impressive on all fronts!

Utterly amazing! Congratulations! Incredibly jealous.

I know this is off topic however not sure how else to communicate the question. Is lemmynsfw down completely? Past 2 days Cloudflare is reporting host offline?

End users… … aren’t paying shit

Users dont pay for the services. Okaay.

Well done you know how sales tax works. Customers pay the business. Business pays the Government. My point.

Swing and a miss on all points.

FYI I used the common terms for your benefit, you sounded American.

your opposition is just based on vibes

Welcome to politics. Have you never seen parliament debate?

Is history at this point

Call things what they are, not a tax.

You should practice it.

Levy is a Tax.

opposition requires

Absolute bollocks. Doesn’t require anything. It only requires personal opinion. Parliament runs on it.

Of course the privacy impact is huge. privacy just does not matter to the average working voting person trying to put groceries on the table.

MPs wont change the stance here because people want to be protected by anonymity. Frankly they won’t change stance at all. Its a certainty at this point.

But it will increase the cost of business which will be passed on and definitely exploited.

“Wont somebody think of the children”

Plenty of children starving in the UK because Government services cant raise revenue to maintain existing levels of public services.

I look to the UK and see the future of western economies. Boned badly, society highly controlled with a large overall tax burden, years of immigration to keep the budget balaced on paper increasing the impact all to delay the fallout. And yes while this will most likely not register a blip to the CPI, its still yet another cut in the wrong direction.

Levy, lol.

Call it what it is: a tax.

A burden on the population. No amount of dirty politics changes the fact. Taxes do not all get directly paid to gavernment. Like sales taxes, service tips ect.

Edit wrote another post, more depth.

It very much is.

Doesn’t matter who or how its recovered. Its still a state mandated cost, aka indirect tax.

Every single piece of legislation costs the population. They all add a million cuts to the costs of living. In times of economic crisis these costs need to come down not up.

Edit: addressing the ad revenue stream. Again irrelevant. The ad revenue stream is reduced, some platforms are talking about charging UK users the outcome is the same. Maybe some pull out of the UK or force more ads into the freemium services costing time.

Read my post, you really didn’t read it.

I’ll spell it out.

State created the law. That creates a cost to be recovered. How that cost is recovered is irrelevant, it’s s state mandated cost aka tax.

How these taxes are applied either reimbursed, taxed directly, or passed on: its still is a tax burden increasing the cost of living. This and previous Government’s have only further worsened the problem. The police state reduces life expectancy.

UK has a massive budget problem and they still keep increasing expenditure on surveillance. That social value is negative at this point as its taking money away from critical services. Well done to the Government continuing the worsen debt, health, and wellbeing of the population. A terrorist will kill 5-10 people, failure to protect the health & well being of population (who needs a roof over their head) it just pales in comparison.

Shit on the floor

Only once every couple of years! Wow you’ve got it good!!

This government literally can’t afford to fuck about wasting money yet here they are. Proving they are imposters failing the country.

“Safety” meanwhile these same mp’s can’t budget can’t run critical public services like bloody hospitals.

But don’t worry, your thoughts and activity are policed.

Democratic failure to prioritise and run a country at its finest on display for the world to see. The waste is astounding.

Have you heard about out lord and saviour the Linux kernel?

Hail to the minty freshness

Literal Greenwashing.

Could easily do better.

Step 1: plant forests Step 2: lobby for the protection of existing forests including the one just created.

I qualified the statement, nothing was ambiguous unless you can’t read the entire sentence

Azure is tiny compared to the competition.

363 is much more successful comparatively. That said, its dying fast, with the utter garbage service upgrades, its enshitified hard into a rigid platform unsuitable for enterprises. So find/make a real alternative to EXO with the Outlook app: and 365 ends over night.
