Because it's often not worth the investment. You would pay a shit ton for a one time conversion of data that is still accessible.

If the software became open source, because the company abandoned it, then that cost could potentially be brought down significantly.

You are also missing the parts where functional hardware loses support. Which is even worse in my opinion.

The McDonald's lady's case blew up because the jury slapped McDonald's with huge punitive damages. If she would have gotten the 10-30k she asked for initially or even just the 125k for actual damages no one would care about the case. But the 2.7 million in punitive damages just make this lawsuit seem frivolous. But she had no control over that.

And IIRC one big reason why she won was because the cups weren't suited for holding such hot liquid. The temperature of coffee didn't decrease in McDonald's after the lawsuit.

Knowing I had to look out for something spotting the IPS was easy. Don't know if it would have been as obvious without knowing something is wrong. But I receive so many fake parcel emails (at least at one of my email addresses) that checking the website/app rather than klicking a link is the default option. And I usually add the email adress of the legitimate shops to my contacts so I can easily filter out emails from new e-mail addresses and ignore them.

Head over to the website of the company go to the about section and read about their values. They usually list something like teamwork, communication, working autonomously, speed, or quality. You pick 2-3 of these values and that's what you talk about when they ask about yourself.

For the actual technical part it's hard to prepare for. Most people don't actually care about you being perfect but just want to see if you actually are familiar with what you said you are. So as long as you have an idea what you are talking about you will be fine.

Even if you don't know the answer, just come up with something that could work. Don't just say you don't know. Explain your train of thought as to why your solution could work. And any other ideas you might have.

They often sell an auto-install USB stick you just have to plug into your PC. So at least there is some effort put into it that still makes it "worth paying for". And if you need to install it on multiple devices, it can save a lot of time if you don't know how to do it yourself.

That's the thing, an abaya doesn't cover your head. There might be some designs that do but in general it's just a maxi-dress with long sleeves. So that's why I think this is stupid. I can understand banning wearing it with an Hijab or other types of headscarves. But as it stand they are sending children home because their dress is too long.

Apple has the exact number. They could have released it to give the claim more weight.

As it stands I find it hard to believe that less than 45 million people in the EU use the service monthly. I assume they use a definition of "active users" that pushes the number artificially down. Whether or not that definition is inline with the definition by the EU is something we will have to find out.

If the 14 hour shifts mean 70 hours a week, then that's bad pay. That's about 20k a year base salary and the rest in overtime. If they even pay overtime

No one is complaining about the carbon a cow is breathing in and out. It's the methane they produce, which is a very potent greenhouse gas, about 80 times the warming power.

This really depends on your exact location. In most of the "western" world, it would be legal. But just because it's legal, doesn't mean it will go unpunished. You could still be arrested and then have some charges thrown at you trying to make one stick. Disturbing the peace would probably be one of the charges that could stick. And of course other things such as resisting arrest. Whether or not it goes that far would depend on why, where, and how you were out in your underwear and if someone has it out for you or not.

Businesses and even certain public places can obviously refuse you entry.

Just block the account that made the posts. It's a single account so it takes 5 seconds to get rid of it all. It's what I did.

You can set a seeding limit in the option, it's under "BitTorrent" "Seeding Limit". The torrent will then go to "Completed" and not seed anymore once it's reached the limit. You can also manually "Pause" a fully downloaded torrent and it will stop seeding.

I wouldn't say it's more "correct" than deleting it and I personally also delete them. But keeping the torrents on a "Completed" status would allow reseeding or redownloading without having to find the torrent file again. It could also serve as a log to easily see what you have downloaded.
