Thank fuck tho, it will keep electric waste down, and I feel we are starting to figure out you don’t need to spec your game to the newest graphics card for it to be fun.
Their margins are very high on some items compared to the ingredients, their costs are more dominated by other factors like wages and the costs for the location.
Visegrád don’t mean shit these days, the journalist is Polish, and worked with Radio Free Europe.
If anything, she’s Western-biased.
It would do all the German people with their hearts in the right place a favour. However, Volkswagen is laying off workers in their hometown of Wolfsburg while heavily relying on their nearshored cheap Hungarian workforce in Győr, Hungary. They will take the money they get from that, and lobby the many times reelected centre-right German government to keep Hungary in, so the biggest engine factory of VW keeps being inside Schengen.
Hungary will get kicked out as soon as the EU will enforce that original ICE car sale ban by 2035.
Cali is a hit or miss, the Cali privacy reg has been so watered down compared to the GDPR it feels like the ad industry got it in to prevent future harsher regulations.
Lol, good luck getting that past the Germans. They want continued enlargement, Serbia, Ukraine, etc.
It would put Germany ahead of France in EU politics, and would provide more cheap labour for German industry.
The EU funded Orbán for decades without any real pushback, they were happy that he created a nearshoring centre for them inside the EU. The reason there has been no real opposition to Orbán in Hungary is because they would have had to go up against the unchecked uncounted EU money Orbán could spend on reelection. What remained of the opposition has been begging the EU for decades to give the money to the recipients directly, as in municipalities, to no avail.
Merkel did much more for Orbán than Fico or the Polish guy. The only reason the Germans are coming to their senses is because Hungary is no longer only selling out its people and its democracy to the German car industry, but to China and Russia as well.
How can this GaaS thing be sooo profitable and also such bad press that even mentioning it results in a “sorry we didn’t mean that” article?
It seems the EU is moving on this issue with their usual tectonic speed.
Let’s hope they also hit with their usual tectonic force.
It almost even took off!

A lesser standard still applies if it either embeds or redirects to a payment page. Again, shouldn’t mean shit, but still.
the only thing the app does is start transactions and check with the server if they’re paid
Yeah, but the whole PCI DSS thing means that the app must still be secured. That doesn’t necessarily mean that it has to be tied to Google Play, but explain it to them.
IIRC they did coupons exclusively in their app a few years ago where I lived (haven’t checked since), and they hiked the price of everything, so if you don’t install the app, you get a 20% surcharge in effect.
That goes for every single shitty chain store as well.
They also get paid off of this, the advertiser pays for those impressions.
Advertisers can’t switch because they can’t not be present on big platforms. The whole ad industry is just companies scamming each other and the consumer.
News websites get revenue via ads. This makes people load the same page again, loading the ads again.
So could raising wages.
