Symbiote

It doesn't work correctly with third level domains.

speedtest.me.uk exists, but typing speedtest.me does not suggest it, and speedtest.me.u suggests speedtest.me.us first (doesn't exist).

(.me.uk is a second level domain category in .uk, intended for personal domains.)

I wonder if any political or protest effort can put pressure on the companies in the USA who are ignoring the leaks?

Mine were mixed colours, the cable was grey but the "boot" and connector were black.

That's what I see from Denmark.

It's a childish word for an insect.

Voted for the environmental candidate every time.

Meta is an exception. They intentionally ignore robots.txt rules.

(No second chances, I blocked their whole IP range.)

Against what person or entity?

The UK chose that approach, not the EU.

The page you cite says it was due to the threat of Iceland leaving NATO etc.

I found this site which claims (AI generated) to have analysed the domains they are registrar for: https://phishdestroy.github.io/trustname-evidence/

> Registrars are not passive infrastructure. They are the first and only chokepoint that can kill a fraud domain in 24 hours — no court order required.

Whatever happened to due process?

My employer's site has no banners, since we decided not to use any tracking.

We measure our success based on enquiries, orders and so on, not the number of hits to the website.

Some friends, and possibly a local metal bar, were referring to Easter as Zombie Jesus Day.

Why would atheists be offended?

The British case was overturned on appeal. (Crazy that it had to go that far though.)

I can't find much left or right coverage of it, there's so much news coverage in the way.

The equivalent in Britain would be a Switch card in the 1990s, the UK's native debit card system.

A Giro card is a debit card.

I understood it.

The bar with the privacy principle didn't accept cards, and had a sign to that effect on the bar.

IBAN is less adopted than I expected -- Europe, the Middle East and progressing in Africa, plus a few others.

I have an account in Denmark which charges for outgoing transactions, 3 DKK. (€0.40.)

I think I have the choice to pay a monthly fee, nominate it as my official account for receiving my salary, or pay for the transactions.

I choose the last option as it's a backup account, and I make perhaps 1 transaction per year.

What about a principled stance that a payment should remain anonymous, without being logged by a domestic bank, let alone a foreign company.

I used to go to a bar in Copenhagen with that principle.

I assume it means converting PDFs transaction statements provided by banks into spreadsheets which accounting software can import.

Correct, Suica is faster than Oyster (card), which is faster than paying with bank cards or phones in London.

(I haven't used the NYC system.)

Some scientists, amplified by journalists. Other scientists at the time were predicting warming.

Clearly, yes. Unless you're claiming your personal experience invalidates a long running, well regarded statistical analysis.

> billionaires and centi millionaires

I think you mean hecto-millionaires.

Prusa's printers also worked out of the box. They cost slightly more, and their staff aren't volunteers.

Average speeds are higher in the UK than Italy.

My brother in the UK has 1Gb/s fibre in a village of less than 100.

In Denmark many retailers pass on the charge for business cards. For example it's often printed on the bottom of a restaurant menu.

In Copenhagen mine is billed individually, and is 75kr for 1Gb/s. About $10.

Otherwise the same system.
