Philips Hue will force users to upload their data to Hue cloud
Its actually illegal under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 in the UK for a product to force a change on its functionality after you bought it.
Also surprised if EU law will allow this ?
I for one will be seeking a refund for the products either directly or through a court just to show them up.
Update Note Showing Consumer Rights Act 2015 "Goods Not Fit For Purpose" alone is enough to demand your money back. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2015/15/section/10
and as it relies on digital content to support them and this is where the main problem is, section 40 applies where they changed it for the worse

Music labels sue Internet Archive over digitized record collection
Sony Music responsible for recently threatening to take radio streaming apps to court for streaming radio stations outside the UK under some false pretence.
They also couldnt give a crap about vinyl quality for their artists and have had entire reissues that were faulty and never repressed. They're seriously starting to piss me off recently. Going to donate to Archive.

McConnell has fallen multiple times this year, sources say | CNN Politics
Am I the only 1 that could hear the slurred words in his speech for a good couple of years ? Surely someone with health issues where it impacts the brain such as strokes shouldnt be anywhere near any sort of power.

Creator of Cracked Paid Starfield DLSS 3 Frame Generation Mod Will Place "Hidden Mines" in Future Mods
This guy is just greedy. I get you want to get something for your work. But they got $50,000 when this mod came out in income in a few days. There are better ways to do this.

I got this popup ad on my TV **while watching a DVD**
Thats instant grounds for breaking Consumer law here in the UK. I'd be returning the TV and if they didnt accept. Small claim court.

ASUS is apparently killing the ability to root present and future Zenfone, Updated
My biggest problem with unlocking the bootloader is that many apps look for an unlocked bootloader as "Its rooted" according to that app but unlocking the bootloader and being rooted is 2 different things. I only want to run a custom rom I dont want to root. But you end up having to do the whole thing and running Magisk to hide the root and unlocked bootloader.

Teenage Grand Theft Auto 6 hacker given an indefinite sentence in a secure hospital due to his 'intent to return to cybercrime as soon as possible'
As always with the Crown Prosecution service in the UK they love to bully and make an example of Autistic people. Only added by corporation running the court system, The CPS' Prosecution barristers are known to enjoy a life of luxury and gifts from them but you cant touch any of it.

Cutting back on social media reduces anxiety, depression, loneliness
I came away from Facebook 6 years ago when i realised it was majorly effecting my mental health with its seriously toxic and witch hunting environment. Then came away from Twitter in Jan partly because I had made cupoftea.social and wasnt spending time there anymore but also found that place had turned toxic. Ive found in the 7 months of running my own mastodon instance that less is more. Less content but more meaningful interaction with other people and I go out the house more often.
