You can't sum like that, though. Connections between regions and countries have capacity limits, so it would matter where in Finland you placed a data-center, if you wanted to take into account the electricity coming from Sweden and

It should be, but as Crapita are run by useless, feckless arseholes from top to bottom, it's not. You have my sympathies. It could be worse, though, Crapita also run the civil service pension system and have completely fucked it up: h

"TV licensing" exists in a lot of countries and it funds the public service broadcaster. It is essentially a tax, it just happens to be collected by a third party (in this case, Crapita) rather than other tax collecting mechanisms

I had to go back from 10.11.x to 10.10.7 because the performance was bad, but I'm very confident they've fixed all the performance problems with this 12.0 release. I'm also confident they've found most of the bugs and ha

I haven't seen what was banned. But I know that Steam publishes a lot of porn games, both in Japan and the UK, and that what's legal in Japan would likely be illegal in the UK. Does that mean SteamDB, if re-hosted in the UK under

Nexus Mods will ban you for making mods that reject the politics of the site moderators. That is not a neutral action. Steam, as far as I understand, lets you publish anything that's legal in the countries you sell it. You don't h
