If that means proper regulations (as it should) I bet they would hate it.

And that is the problem with this idea.
Subscription to a software is not mutually exclusive with self-hosting. Developers deserve to earn money, especially those who do not rely on collecting data, showing ads and enshittification of their cloud platform.
Understood: the debts can get higher now, as the government will pay it…
I don’t think this is the way to go. Not while getting into medical debt like that is still a possibility.
‘Pay to show a link’ is the way Google wants us to see this legislation. But linki are not what the news sources are fighting. The problem is Google presents the news and other information in the search result in the way that users often do not need to leave Google and foll9w the link.
Someone produces content so people visit their się and make them money, but those users get the information they want (sometimes incomplete or broken) straight from Google and only Google gets the money. That is not fair and that is what laws like this try to fix (better or worse). But Google and such have powerful propaganda and here we are.
Another thing is: users of services like Reddit or Lemmy also do similar thing (posting content in a way that preventing monetization at its source), so they have extra reason to take Google side.
Well behaving programs give control back to the kernel as soon as they are done with what they are doing. If they don’t the control is forcefully taken away after some assigned time.
It looks something like this:
Something happens – e.g. a key is pressed – a process waiting for this event is woken up and gets e.g. 100ms to do it stuff. If it can handle the key press in 50ms, kernel notes it used 50 ms of CPU time and can give control to another process waiting for an event or busy with other work. If the key press triggered long computation the process won’t be done in 100ms, the kernel notes it used 100ms of CPU time and gives control to other processes with pending events or busy with other work.
After one second the kernel may have noted:
Process A: used 50ms, then nothing, then 100ms, another 100ms and another 100ms
Process B: was constantly busy doing something, so it got allocated 6 * 100ms in that one second
Process C: just got one event and handled it in 50ms
Process D: was not waken at all
So total of 1000ms was used – the CPU was 100% busy
Of that 60% was process B, 35% process A and 5% process C.
And then that information is read from the kernel by top and displayed.
How does the OS even yank the CPU away from the currently running process?
Interrupts. CPU has means triggering and interrupt at a specific time. Interrupt means that CPU stops what it is doing and runs selected piece of kernel code. This piece of kernel code can save the current state of user process execution and do something else or restore saved execution of another process.
Oh, I am sure American cars are even bigger, but that does not mean we should like the trend.
Europe used to laugh at American big cars, but recently the cars on our roads get bigger and bigger too :-(
He already got the maximum punishment possible in this office and the case will be passed to the prosecutor. Practically every party in the parliament condemned the incident. Even his colleagues from the far-right party were not eager to defend Braun.
And, of course, PiS, while rightfully condemning this behaviour, used it as an excuse to try to once again delay settings up the new government.
Poland: not much surprise. These have just proved how the previous government destroyed education here.
Note: one of the first decision the new government is to make is a significant raise for teachers, but all the damages done over last 8 years won’t be that easy to fix.
Glyphosate is still one of the safest herbicides in use. Banning it could have bigger environment impact than allowing it.
This paymemt does not even stop their crappy ‘recommended for you’ suggested content on user’s wall, which is even more annoying than the ads.
But is it a clickbait in this case? The title is exactly the question the article thoroughly answers.
It was, but also we have the same time in most EU, so at the west or east extremities either winter or summer time is quite wrong (or even both). Synchronized time is handy for international relations, though.
Those would be different kind of regulations. Not just ‘you need functioning brakes’ kind, but also ‘you must serve this route that hardly anyone uses and and you cannot make any extra money from’. Or ‘no extra fees, even where some people would pay them’.
