Even if I had wanted to upgrade, I wouldn't be able to, since Microsoft needs hardware mg computer doesn't have. I can't imagine most people would care enough to even think about that. They'd just keep using the computer until it no longer worked, and in the modern day, that will take a lot longer than it would have a decade or two ago.
There's a fair bit of nuance around the topic of whether honey should be vegan or not, since honeybees also overproduce, and that is its own problem. Like with sheep's wool.
Although crude oil has the additional complication where it's an incidental post-death product, like fertiliser, and from that viewpoint, it would be about as ethical.
I don't think so. It's more a side effect of the fact that the disaster was successfully prevented that makes it seem like there was no disaster at all to begin with, and that it was all fearmongering.
Like with acid rain, or Y2K.
People worked very hard in the background to prevent bad things from happening, but because they did so, and the effects weren't outwardly public, it didn't seem like very much happened at all.
Or that if they succeed, no-one is going to hire a vibe artist. Why do that whwn they can just assign someone to generate images for them, and avoid having to hire someone?
Especially since discoverability has pretty much gone down the toilet, between SEO and spam sites.
You're not going to as easily find a new and interesting website, when the first few results are just computer generated regurgitated text, stuffed with ads by the gill.
Complexity? You either need a drain, or a supply of water, that can't be easy to work with, and unlike with a refrigerant loop, you can't just reverse it to dry/wet things.
They also don't have good, compelling reasons to stay with the current system. They're not getting much out of it, and the "oh, but the computer you're making this on was created under capitalism" isn't that compelling of an argument, especially when the alternative is choosing between eating, and buying the medication that stops your blood turning into acid.
The whole "system of true opportunity, where the best and brightest can shine" rings hollow when you're working multiple jobs to survive, no matter how smart you are, and it feels like you're extorted at every opportunity.
In fairness, it does seem like the kind of extreme that would come up in a video game. You'd at least expect some subtlety in real life, rather than outright drapes with the guy's face on, and a positive word slapped on.
Google says that only apps with verified identities will be installable on certified Android devices, which is virtually every Android-based device—if it has Google services on it, it's a certified device. If you have a non-Google build of Android on your phone, none of this applies. However, that's a vanishingly small fraction of the Android ecosystem outside of China.
Which does suggest that it applies to everyone, as opposed to being something that only applies to Play Protect.
