The problem is not that it gives a download prompt, but rather that it tosses the PDF file into your downloads folder unrequested.
It opens the PDF in the internal PDF viewer as well, but that is not the thing people are having issues with.
I don’t know whether they fixed it since, but last I checked that option was broken.
No matter what you select, half the time it still downloads the PDF to your drive.
I can mostly find myself agreeing (or at least not having big issues with) with all of the points, except for that one.
Let’s just hope they mean requiring a best effort, rather than outright preventing it in the first place.
Since the article doesn’t actually say what the rules and regulations are, here is a link:
Daar ben ik het op zich niet geheel mee oneens, maar boetes zullen worden uitgeschreven op de maximumsnelheid van 30 km/u, terwijl de weg 50 km/u uitlokt.
Ik denk dat de snelheidsverlaging naar 30 km/u een goed idee is, maar ik weet niet helemaal zeker of ik het eens ben met de uitvoering ervan.
In Nederland richten we wegen in naar de maximum snelheid die daar geldt. Dat zorgt ervoor dat mensen bijna onbewust ongeveer de geldende maximum snelheid rijden, zonder dat ze constant bewust op de hoogte moeten zijn van de maximum snelheid.
Deze wegen zijn allemaal ingericht als 50 km/u wegen, en naar mijn weten wordt over het algemeen (met enkele uitzonderingen hier en daar) de weginrichting niet aangepast nu de snelheid wordt verlaagd naar 30 km/u.
Dat gaat, denk ik, mensen uitlokken om onbewust te hard te rijden.
Die weginrichting zal over de komende jaren loopgewijs wel aangepast worden, maar ik weet niet zeker of heel Amsterdam in één keer naar 30km/u een goed idee is.
Edit: Worth noting… Ik ben geen Amsterdammer, dus uiteindelijk is dit niet mijn beslissing.
I’m not a lawyer, but I don’t think that retroactively applies to things that happened before the ToS got updated.
So 23andMe would still be open to lawsuits for the previous breach
Could we add holiday logos for the Dutch (and Belgian) holidays of Sinterklaas (December 5th and 6th), and perhaps Kings Day? (April 27th)
If I have some direction on the style I could perhaps Photoshop something together :)
Edit: Carnaval would be fun too, but that one might be tricky because it falls on a different day every year (and is also not consistent between countries, I don’t think…)
As someone who works in the tech industry and has used AI tools (or more accurately machine learning models), I do think it is overrated.
That doesn’t mean that I don’t think it can be useful, just that it’s not going to live up to the immense hype surrounding it right now.
Por que no los dos?
Just wait till Musk learns about banking regulations.
He’s already complaining about the EU regulations on social media, but they nothing compared to what banks have to deal with.
In other words, the price of the Pixel 8 Pro will be higher in order to include a smart watch that you may or may not even want
Unity walked back from charging per installation earlier today. Now they will be charging per device it is installed on.
It doesn’t solve the core problem, but it at least prevents install-bombing like you are suggesting
https://www.eurogamer.net/unity-backtracks-slightly-on-plans-to-charge-developers-for-game-installs
Other articles I have been reading on the topic do mention it:
Unity has also clarified the changes are “not retroactive or perpetual”, noting it will only “charge once for a new install” made after 1st January 2024. However, while it won’t be charging for previously made installs, fees do indeed apply to all games currently on the market, meaning should any existing player of an older game that exceeds Unity’s various thresholds decide to re-install it after 1st January, a charge will still be made.
When I say that it applies retroactively, I mean that it applies to games released in the past.
It’s true that they are not retroactively charging devs for past downloads. That would have been even worse.
I’m no legal expert, and I have no familiarity with Unity’s licensing terms. So I didn’t want to outright call what they are doing illegal.
For all I know they did technically have a clause in their licensing agreement that allows them to do this. But that wouldn’t make it any less of a scum move imo.
It’ll be interesting to see what the lawyers will make of this.
From what I understand this change will retroactively apply to games released in the past as well. I think that’s a rather scummy move on Unity’s part. “I’ve altered the deal. Pray I don’t alter it further.”
And it’s not like game devs have been using a free product. They already pay for it through expensive licenses per developer.
If the justification on Unity’s part is true, that for each install of a Unity game the runtime environment needs to be downloaded from their servers, then maybe they should look into fixing that rather than nickle and diming their customers for each individual install (customers in this case being the game developers)
I’m currently using it as a network printer via CUPS (so yes, Linux)
But to my knowledge that still requires the appropriate drivers to be installed on Windows 🤔
So what does this mean for my old laser printer dating back to the early 2000s? Will I not be able to use that anymore?
It’s still perfectly functional, so it would be a bit of a shame and a waste of money to have to replace it.
That’s a valid concern, but it also assumes that the requirements for apps will go up in a similar trend as they did in the previous 8-10 years.
I’m not entirely convinced that they will. Smartphones 10 years ago were still very much a developing product category, whereas I think today they are generally matured.
Just look at laptops as a comparison. When they were still rapidly developing, an eight year old laptop would have pretty much been obsolete. But today an eight year old laptop will still serve most people perfectly fine.
Great that it seems to work for you, but I’ve been experiencing this bug for months now if not longer.
I made the changes OP suggested, and now it seems to work correctly.
