When the fuck did a mobile hotspot become something you have to pay extra for?

The day (North) American people realize: they live just to feed corporations' greed, lobbying is just legal bribery, their government doesn't give a flying fuck about them, most developed countries' offering and protection is miles further away from what they have... they won't do shit. Because the system works as it's intended to. Maybe ask to bring American freedom to America? 🦅 🇺🇸

Hundreds of thousands of EU citizens ‘wrongly fined for driving in London Ulez’

Reply in thread

Sorry, you might have misunderstood my point. The long processing time is "fine" if it happens at all. The issue I'm trying to bring up is that in most cases these acts end without real consequences or punishment, so any greedy newcomer repeats it.

Example of what I'd like to happen: Euro Parking contract will not be renewed, and the company will be banned for 10 years to have any contracts with TfL or any other agency.

Set precedent by law, not just a slap in the wrist, so they think twice instead of writing it off as a business expense.

Trackball ball replacement

The same has happened to me few times and sadly I've never been able to find a good replacement.

I saw an eBay listing for a pool/billiard ball claiming to be compatible, but that's not apealling to me, and the price was something ridiculous like 40-50€, so I learned to live with the pain of just rotating the ball upside-down when I hit the dent.

I guess it would be possible to do a tiny patch on the dent with epoxy, but I don't want to take the risk of making things even worse.
