Yes, but companies use tap water from water treatment plant, it cost $$$ to run all those.
Company pay ~$1 for 1000L of water, to fill Aquafina plastic bottles or whatever, and sell the 500mL bottle for like $2, something like 400% profit
Aren’t Putin and Musk buddy-buddy always exchanging phone calls?
US companies does the same elsewhere, for instance Coca Cola or PepsiCo or others comes to Québec to take billions of gallons of tapwater (it’s basically free) and sell it in the world.
Because C is the best language especially for low-level, embedded, real-time, etc., Linux kernel is written in C, git is written in C too.
I know old scripting (bash, awk) but nothing about python :-/
Old enough to have learnt BASIC and assembly in the 80s as well as Turbo Pascal (in CP/M) and C, all self-taught. I still code in C as of today.
I understand it could make sense for 4G/5G telecom as transmit towers can be saturated etc if people download terabytes and terabytes every day. But for at home cable? having a cap makes no sense really…
I think it happened in time before, but when you have a lot of young people doing nothing like this, you better control them to avoid a general backlash/revolution. Being China, enrolling them in their army and invading a country/going to war, will keep them busy. It’s unfortunate, but it’s CCP.
Canadian? then https://forums.redflagdeals.com/costco-hisense-2022-2023-2024-4k-43-100-tv-model-sale-clearance-298-2629232/
With your budget, take the 75U78N at Costco, 2yr warranty + you can extend to 6yr for 150$ I think.
Hisense especially the 78N (and 88N) have absolutely beautiful stunning picture, maybe one of the best for the buck, check the review https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/hisense/u7n-u7-u75n it handles DolbyVision, HDR, 144Hz, etc
It does not use a shitty OS like roku nor ads like Samsung. You may need to have it plugged on internet for 1st boot and FW update, but after this you can obviously disconnect it, plug your HDMI device and that’s it, it will act as a dumb monitor.
TOS of course, will never skip it
Imagine in Canada, where real news media like TV, newspaper, etc, cannot be used by Meta (FB, IG, etc). So in a Canadian facebook feed, you only have conspiracy and right-wing false info, that’s it. For the people who took their info from FB, they are flooded by fake/alarming news.
you shout in COBOL ;-)
I learnt COBOL (I’m old) it’s a very easy language, you basically talk, for instance to do c=a*b you write:
MULTIPLY A TO B GIVING C
and everything is tabbed, but in a good editor like emacs, it’s done automatically pretty well.
It’s about everywhere, also in USA, when a newly elected official having a net worth of nothing significant, earn, let’s say, 200k per year, but after 5 years has a net worth of 10 millions ?!?
In Canada it’s tap to pay for ~8 years now, never saw a QR code to pay. However when I go in USA, every stores is tap to pay, except one, there’s one store in USA where there is no tap, it’s Walmart, inconcevable.
I have bought hundreds of stuff on AE, it’s ok, especially for stuff that are less than $10 that local sellers sell for like $40 for the exact same thing. I got some items in less than a week in Caanda.
yeah, it’s a feature required by CCP
Absolutely, I started computers in 1981, for me 1K is 1024 bytes and will always be. 1000 bytes is a scam
maybe 4000% yep or 40000 ?
