What's going on with Europe lately? You all really want GOOGLE of all mega corps in control of your identity?

You're going the opposite way, it should be your right to install an alternate OS on your phone. If anything they should be banning Google licensed Android.

To get pedantic for a second. The title of this post is "Microsoft gives..." as if this was an altruistic act that Microsoft decided to do for some people, when the article states they did it to comply with a law.

A much better title would have been "EU Forces Microsoft to Give Users More Control:" It returns the credit to the people who deserve the credit and clarifies that it wasn't something Microsoft did willingly.

I am also boycotting Microsoft and every product from companies owned by them.

Sure, that doesn't leave a lot of games I can buy, but hey, Indie games are often the best games. Also I have a backlog so huge there will probably be peace in the middle east before I'm through with it.

Besides if there is a game I really want to play, I hear there arrrrr still ways to do so without supporting genocide.

An Illegal alien at that. He can't even claim Birthright Citizenship, if we still followed the Constitution I mean.

They are only against federal control when it's them who are being controlled. They are fine with it happening to other people. It's how they can claim to be pro freedom out of one side of their mouth and anti-freedom with the other. Laws for thee, none for me.

He's slowly making Obama's joke come true.

Can we just take a moment to give props to the photographer who took this picture? It truly captures the essence and spirit of Donald Trump. If there is any justice in the world this will be his official presidential portrait.

I can confirm it works for DuckDuckGo as well.

I love how it even lists 'sources' (I checked, that phrase does not appear in either "source")

Edit: To make this phenomenon even funnier, I just asked it the exact same question and it gave me a different answer this time. Still "playful" though :)

I live alone and actively wish I could die. I'm not hurting anyone but myself.

I am glad that it's not cool with the younger generations, and that the whole vaping fad kinda died back.

Still though, the amount of self righteousness and lack of empathy from some non smokers really makes me glad that I will never have to hang out with those types of people.

Addiction is a hell of a thing, and when the alternative is worse than quitting, it's extremely difficult to quit.

We know you guys were looking forward to uncovering the truth about Epstein. We obviously can't do that, but here is a cherry picked list of 100 of the president's enemies.

These are the people you need to worry about, and hey most of them are "liberals" so you can rub it in their face. It's a win-win!

I guess we're all a little racist.

Cope. Racists simply can't imagine that being a hateful bigot makes them a bad person- so they HAVE to pretend that everyone feels that way but we just keep it quiet.

I had a co-worker who insisted he wasn't racist, but he did hate 'Sand-Nwords'. He said "Everybody hates one group or another". He refused to believe that I hate literally no one in the world because of their race.

This is satire right? Jesus H. Christ. We are so far into clown world that you couldn't even make fun of it. No matter how ridiculous you make it sound- they will outdo you with reality.

How is this any different from admitting that whoever Trump replaces them with is going to report inaccurate numbers to make Trump look good?

This seems kind of obvious to me honestly. Like if you weren't worried that you would 'turn gay', why would you give a single shit about what other men do in their bedrooms? It just goes to show how even in our 'enlightened' age that there is still a terrible stigma associated with being gay among certain groups. Ignorance and fear is part of it but religion plays a big part as well.

I have a friend who 'admitted' to me that he was gay as if he were telling me he was a pedo or a murderer. Of course I told him that I dgaf, but it mattered to him. He's a devout Catholic and has been tortured by his sexuality since before I knew him (30 years). He has even enrolled himself into a couple of those 'Pray the Gay Away' camps. It's amazing how willing people are to follow a God who would put them through something like that.

I used to work with a religious guy who started this whole "Homosexuality is a choice" bit. I said "You think you could just choose to be gay?" and to his credit he admitted that he could. He's more honest than a lot of closeted homophobes, usually that question makes them backtrack their position, but he's too devout to realize that homosexuality isn't always a boolean and he didn't have a choice in his sexuality anymore than my friend had.

Even if done in a car in areas where a e-bike isn't really feasible, they usually take several orders at at time. I think 1 car picking up and delivering 3 orders is probably slightly more efficient than each person driving to the restaurant.

You mean the same dumbass that blames an ingredient that hasn't been in vaccines in over 20 years for Autism, an ingredient that has never been shown to cause autism in the first place? Does anyone actually take this jackass seriously?

Bobby Kennedy must be rolling over in his grave.

On a completely unrelated topic, check out this cool picture.

Fuck Microsoft but aren’t there data residency laws that say French data must be stored in Europe?

The problem with U.S. companies operating in Europe is the CLOUD Act. It doesn't matter where the physical servers are located, if the U.S. Government wants access to the data, U.S. Based companies are required by law to allow it.

Oh No! A millionaire trophy hunter was brutally mauled to death by a vicious beast? This is a terrible tragedy :( Seriously, what could be more important than the life of a complete and utter scumbag?

I wonder how many innocent children starved and were murdered by the IDF today?

Doesn't matter- didn't you hear? A rich white man was killed!

I got [email protected] when gmail was still 'invite only'.

The one drawback to that is there is a General in the U.S. Army with my exact name who doesn't understand how email works and apparently gives out my email address as his. I wish I knew what his actual email address was so I could let people know what it is. I bet he's missing out on a lot of VA functions and barber appointments because he couldn't be assed to remember his actual email address.

Anyone who believes Trump "Hasn't been interested" in whether his name is on the list or not...

Anyone who believes lifelong Republican and Trump Collaborator J. Comey can see the future...

Anyone who believes that the Biden administration went through the trouble of doctoring evidence to set up Trump just in case he was elected in the future and pressured to release the files...

Anyone who believes that he hasn't already decided to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell in exchange for her compiling a list of 100 of Trumps enemies...

Is a fucking idiot, even by MAGAt standards, and that's already as low of a bar as it's possible to have.
