UK had those laws, but Rupert Murdoch had lunch with Margaret Thatcher right before he purchased the Times of London, giving him a 40% market share in news media in the country. You wanna take a guess on whether those laws were enforced after their little meeting?
Reminds me of the ridiculous advice I've heard from my parents of just showing up to pester the boss at the job you want until they hire you. It may have worked before the days of LinkedIn and Indeed, but these days the people picking out application candidates almost always have nothing to do with the position they're hiring for.
As you part your curtains, you see that is a bright morning, the sun is shining, the birds are singing, the meadows are blooming, and a large yellow bulldozer is advancing towards your home.
Must be a Thursday. I never could get the hang of those.
A lot of people have mentioned ProtonDB already, but I'll throw in Lutris as well. It's a multi-platform game launcher that supports Steam, GOG, Humble Games, Epic Games, EA, etc. but its website also lets you search for a game title, and most should have a user-created method to launch.
It's more that flash NAND uses a small electric charge to keep the NAND gates in the correct configuration. Over time, that charge dissipates. If you power the storage device every once in a while, you minimize these chances.
Here's a video explaining why it happens to Wii U's after being powered off for a while. https://youtu.be/JHME4zLs6Qs
If there's one thing I truly miss about attending church, it's getting too see and hear that pipe organ up close.

I would get entranced just staring at the pipes and not hear a word the pastor was saying.
Your experience is not universal. I quit smoking using the pouches. Sure, some people are just going to use them as their delivery method instead of a cessation aid, but that doesn't invalidate the ones like me. Stigmatizing the cessation aid hurts people in the long run because smokers will be less likely to pick them up. And if you were a smoker before, you know the smallest excuse will suffice to "delay" your quitting.
ETA: That being said, I find it absolutely vile that the companies making the pouches are the tobacco manufacturers who are getting people addicted in the first place. In a just world, tobacco executives would be treated as the slimy drug dealers they are.
Yeah, I get that. This one store has remained in its early-2000s renovation layout while all the other nearby locations of its size went the opposite direction and became Neighborhood Markets and only sell food. That's what has me baffled by it.
As an Oklahoman, it is a shock for me to learn that okra is from the Old World
