Google and Microsoft didn’t “kill” the decentralised e-mail of yesteryear. They beat it fair and square

Sure, they might’ve cornered the market fair and square, but they’re certainly doing anticompetitive things in keeping it cornered.

Just try setting up a mail server not connected to any of the big corpos (Google, MS, Cloudflare or their clients with more niche marketing) and see who will actually recieve your mails. You most likely won’t land into the Spam folder either.

Sorry to hijack your comment, but seeing that “my grandchildren are in my daughters’ ovaries post” right above this one and your comment made me wonder:

Why is gas so damn cheap in the US while saying “healthcare is expensive” is a giant understatement.

Compared with Europe, where gas prices are regulated (and gas stations still seem to be doing just fine to the point that new ones keep popping up around where I live at an astounding rate) while it’s the healthcare that is subsidised and made availiable to all.

How come? Why aren’t gas companies in the US be as greedy as hospitals and pharma there? Why aren’t European gas stations few and far between, continuing to barely hold on, fail and ultimately closeleaving Europe gasless?

A game you paid for. On a console you also paid for. And you also pay for PS Plus as well.

Going by US laws (life + 70 years), all of Picasso’s art is all still copyright protected in the US until 2043, so it’s even less of a difference than you may realize.

Yes. Yes it did.

No, they did not report that in media.

The first one got confiscated.

He cheaped out on the second.

Now he has to jack up the prices and fire a few workers so he can save up for a proper one in a few years. Third time’s the charm!

Think about the economy! The 10 fired gamedevs are gonna find new employment easily while the chef, 4 security guards, captain and 10 crew are much less in demand!
