Where I am from most farmers are millionaires. They are all corporations. 200 per machine per year is nothing to them.

So you are OK with it if I paint a big mural on your car, home, laptop, phone?

Art is cool. Painting your art on someone else's private property is not. Pushing your political agenda in public spaces is especially not cool. I just want to walk outside and enjoy the world, don't want your political agenda pus

Pushing your personal agenda in public spaces on people by using someone's private property makes you a hero?

No, because then you pay full price. If you buy your iPhone at a third party retailer the price is much lower. The iPhone Air is €1329 at Apple and €849 at retailers.

That is fine. Just don't use private property in the public space for it. Put it in an art gallery somewhere.

Is it morally or socially acceptable to paint over someone else's private property?

Looked it up on Google. I don't like people claiming public space to push their personal agenda. Those alleys are for everyone, stop using it for your personal agenda. Please make a-political art.

Is that $3000 a deposit that you get if you return it in good condition? In that case we would definitely call that renting. > Is the difference between renting and leasing even meaningful? Where I live, yes. If you lease you are the own

So let's say you go to Hertz or Avis at the airport, you get a car for a month at $1700. The car has an MSRP of $40,000 and Hertz/Avis gives you the option to buy the car for $38,300 after you return it. Is that leasing or renting

English is not my first language, sorry. If you have a device that you pay a monthly fee for, but you can't keep it at the end of the contract, where I am from we call that renting. Leasing is a financial construction where you actuall

For most people this can replace an iPhone Pro, a MacBook Neo and their iPad. For those people, $2000 is a good price for a device that does all their digital work.

Renting. It's $57 per month for 24 months and then you have to hand it in. So you pay $1368 for the privilege of using the Duo for 2 years.

I wonder whether the Sámi people have been consulted or compensated for the use of their traditional lands as a rocket launch site. Given Norway’s long history of suppressing Sámi people and their land rights, I'd be interested to know

That's legally true, but I think it misses the distinction between formal political status and the legacy of colonialism. French Guiana is an overseas department of France, and its residents have French citizenship and constitutional r

Really comes in handy to still have a couple of colonies near the equator. It's also better to have the massive amounts of emissions far away from your own population.

Makes it harder to steal. Don't forget that the European continent has had wars almost non-stop for centuries. It is a good strategy to place your gold in a location that has not seen much action in the past 250 years.

As a Linux, macOS and Windows user it’s really strange to me that you can’t just install the latest OS on your device. Even my iPhone updates to the latest version as soon as it’s released.

The Apple 30-pin connector on the iPod and early iPhones had serial! That is how your car radio could display the name of the current track. https://theapplewiki.com/wiki/30-pin_Connector

That sounds horrible. I can understand why Apple makes their own chips with the practices that these SoC manufacturers are getting away with. Perhaps the EU can step in and force these SoC companies to change their way of working so that a

Recently when I started an LG TV, there was an unskippable ad for a local delivery service. I pressed the home button and it told me "Smart services not available right now". After the ad I could go to the home menu. If this was m

If this were genuinely 100% a Qualcomm limitation, I'd expect every Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 phone to be similarly stuck. But Motorola's Edge 70 Fusion uses the same SoC and was already in Android 17 beta testing in February, and Nothi

Serial is a universal data interface that we've had for decades. Don't need RS232 on my phone though.

The recently released Fairphone 6+ runs on Android 16. I had to look that up on Wikipedia, their website doesn't even clearly state that. Android 16 is 14 months old at the moment. Android 17 was released to manufacturers 6 months ago

Good. PlayStation and Xbox next, please. With PSN reportedly serving more than 125 million active users, the scale is certainly large enough to raise questions about whether an alternative app store should be available on PS5 under the EU’s
