He's just trying to sell books now. Ignore him.

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.

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.

It looks like the biggest culprit is poor or non existent lod's on the models. Strikes me as odd though as that's a pretty basic art requirement for a game like this. I don't see how this took them by suprise.

I guess the good news is that's it's easily fixable. It's not like ksp2 which looks like it has some pretty unsolvable core issues.

I see it as the slug aliens have turned up with their best weaponry, which isn't effective.

Before the pitchforks get handed out we should take a moment to remember that Poland has given more aid to Ukraine as a % of GDP than almost any other country. The only countries who have done more are Latvia and Estonia.

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.

  1. The bill no longer requires tech companies to control 'harmful but legal' content. A blurry, ill defined concept that would have been impossible to regulate.
  2. The bill no longer requires all end to end encrypted communication channel's (WhatsApp etc) to have a backdoor for governments and enforcement agencies to access unencrypted messages between people. Something that would have broken effective security in every way.
  3. The bill no longer requires porn to only be accessible to UK citizens after they have proven they are an adult. This was by providing bank details or ID to porn websites (lol no thanks), possibly through a third party company that is supposed to assure some privacy ( lol still no thanks).

And what's left in the bill is going to be regulated by Ofcom, a toothless underfunded shell of a regulatory body.

Am I the only one who thinks this is funny? It's a joke people.

They're massive for a start. Police have something like 60% Union membership. Compare that IT and service industries which are in the area of 3-6%. That gives them serious clout for lobbying legislation and anything else.

Unions are effective. Sadly this one i just happens to be working for a rotten gang.

I think you've just described the national health service. As a citizen of the country you pay taxes throughout your working life and the health care from the NHS is free at the point of delivery. It's a membership.

Do you mind? I'm trying to be righteously infuriated over here.
