Was that pre-pandemic or just a temporary policy to make things easier for cleaners in the evening?

Yeah it's true that they generally won by small margins, but they also won the 2008 and 2012 Euros. I enjoyed watching them :)

edit: Who do you think is going to win Champions League this year?

It sounds like this guy helped you out of a tough situation and I can understand why you've struggled to say no to him.

But just because he helped you out doesn't mean he owns you until the debt is paid.

It sounds like they didn't pay anything and that you didn't sign anything. If this is true then you owe them nothing. Why haven't you told them to fuck off?

>If I took his offer and not theirs they would see it as me cutting them out and as a betrayal.

If this is the sort of language they used then I would run from these people as fast as I could. Don't let anyone emotionally blackmail you into doing something you don't want to do. If this is how they're acting now imagine how bad it would be if they were actually your business partners and had actual rights as share holders of the business?

>I’m sick to my stomach over it. I can’t get rid of them. I can’t negotiate.

Try to remember that you have no obligation to even speak to these people.

Also, please get yourself a good lawyer before you sign anything with anyone; and especially don't sign anything that people are "strong arming" you into signing.

>The only hope I have (in my mind) is if I can raise a round in the next year and have them bought out. I don’t see any other way.

You can just politely tell them "no thank you, I'm not interested anymore."

I think we’ll just have to agree to disagree because in my opinion it was an officiating fiasco. De Jong avoiding a straight red with his kick to the chest without an attempt on the ball is a total fiasco.

The referee allowed the game to get out of control which is almost as bad as over officiating. But at least it’s impossible to make the argument that Spain won because of bad officiating.

I can sympathise somewhat with the perspective of the Dutch team. It was their third final and they knew they were outmatched by Spain’s tiki-taka. Still even considering that I think their actions on the pitch were disgraceful.

I did always wonder what Cruyff’s opinion of that game was and I managed to find an article from the time.

My memory of that is so different. I remember an outclassed Dutch team basically trying to cheat their way to victory through dirty play. It would have been a massive injustice had Spain not won.

>Then one day Google decided to suspended the app without warning because of 'deceptive behaviour'. Saying the app does not work as the title says.

You're claiming that Google haven't told you what the problem is but you also say that Google said the app doesn't doesn't work as the title says and that there is some deceptive behaviour. These statements are contradictory.

I think it's going to be hard for anyone to judge what has happened without more detail about what the app is and what the title is.

Okay so I've not experienced anything unusual after turning wireguard on.

I've not played Morrowind or Oblivion but I've played the other three in the series and a similar mechanic exists in Skyrim as well, although it's not possible to do it in the early game. If I remember correctly you make a potion that lets you craft better armour, then craft armour that lets you craft better potions.

I've just checked on my iPhone and exposure notifications were only using 3% of battery. I've turned on my wireguard which connects to a pi-hole and I'll report back tomorrow.

Possibly not if you're talking about €500 notes.

I was always a dog person until I moved in with my partner who has cats. Having never lived with cats before I was amazed at how good they are at communicating with humans. Based on how they vocalise I know if they are asking for food, treats, or milk. I'm also now convinced that they have a sense of humour. Spending more time with them has been a really nice thing about this lockdown.

A similar product in Korea killed quite a lot of people a few years ago.

I sort of agree with you on the comma thing; reducing usage of commas while using more semicolons would make for better reading.

I don't assume that it does, but the performance issues with Electron are widely acknowledged, as is the the fact that MS seems to have done a great job with VSC despite that.

I can understand the sentiment that they’re a net good but our experiences and workflows with Teams is vastly different.

When I use Teams I have to pretty much close every other open app I have; then I use Teams; then I close Teams and go back to work. If I don’t do this my keystrokes lag by about 2 seconds.

My computer isn’t even that old, it’s from 2016.

Personally I think it would be a tragedy for macOS users if Omni went non native but I suspect we’re going to see more native software in the future not less.

I don't understand how they could just take it away if you haven't done anything abusive. So much for innocent until proven guilty.

This is just a guess but if it were a web app then they'd have to support multiple browsers.

It looks really useful and the rationale behind using Electron makes sense, but I really dislike using non-native macOS apps. Still, I suppose it's better than not being able to run it at all. Good luck with the project!

Once you’re signed in you stay signed in and you can’t sign out without authenticating. Resetting the phone doesn’t bypass this.

There is a BitTorrent coin, it’s an interesting idea.

From his Wikipedia entry:

>In 1986, he graduated summa cum laude from Princeton University with a 4.2 GPA and a Bachelor of Science in Engineering degree (B.S.E.) in electrical engineering and computer science.

Memorising openings is also a crutch for players who aren’t that good so I’m not sure if I would use that as a benchmark for good players.

When it’s considered normal for Congress to vote for laws that they haven’t read because the laws are so verbose that it wouldn’t be practical I don’t hold out much hope for the sanity you are suggesting.

What does +$0.25 each mean?

That would work for things like accessing a user’s address book or location but some of the quality control occurs at the App Store review level.

I don’t think iOS would be capable of protecting against, for example, the running of hidden cryptocurrency software.

Also iOS has private api’s but their use is prevented by the review process.

You're not wrong with your first three lines but do you really think consumers will actually have any meaningful choice if all the trendy but privacy invading apps have their own app store with software free to run rampant on users devices?

With iOS, Apple was able to create a mass market of easy to use device for regular people that didn't get infested by various adware and malware. I think that's a really significant and impressive achievement. People choose to buy into Apple's ecosystem partially for this reason. When the next "must have" social/communication app is only available on a future Facebook AdStore we'll have the choice between installing some form of adware or not participating. That's even less of a real choice than having the freedom to switch platforms.

If app stores get regulated I fear we'll end up where windows PCs were in the late 90's. I don't know about you but I quite enjoy not having to remove spyware from the mobile phones of friends and family on a regular basis.

Also, slightly tongue in cheek, if Epic is able to force Apple to allow an Epic App Store on iOS will that mean that Epic will be forced to allow alternative cosmetics stores in Fortnite? How far should app store regulation go?

>Telling users they can use a different platform if they're not happy, is not real choice.

Finally why is this argument always made on behalf of users? I've never heard a user that wasn't also a developer complain about the lack of app stores where they can more easily download crapware.

I think this is a lot more about developer rights masquerading as user rights. I think it's self evident that in a lot of cases that the interests of developers are totally at odds with the interests of users.

>the App Store should not be the only marketplace available.

Wouldn't Facebook then simply stop distributing it's app through the Apple App Store and then create it's own app store that doesn't have any of the anti-tracking restrictions?

I do the same thing and it was life changing for me when I discovered this. I just have to remain mindful of making sure to stop the music when I choose to take a break/procrastinate.

I'm only half joking when I say this but I think you're neglecting to consider that the Venn diagram of investors/speculators bullish on Tesla and bullish on BTC is a single circle.
