Correct. In fact many, many companies have ASNs. Little companies all the way up to large ones. The key difference for an ISP is they allow you to route traffic through them. Almost every company that has an ASN blocks traffic from being routed through them, assuming they know how to configure that and that they have different peering points. Valve most certainly does not allow you to route through their network, they already have enough traffic just doing their own CDN stuff.

I think you're still misunderstanding how this would work. So this battery swap setup is like the equivalent of going to the gas station. Basically, when your battery is close to being dead, you head to this place and get a fully charged battery. So it doesn't matter that the battery is used, you just keeping swapping batteries out when you need it. Sure it would be annoying to know that when you bought the car, it came with a fresh battery that would get swapped out with an older battery, but you would have bought the car to get into the swapping system since this is mainly for folks that can't do charging at home.

I think the battery swap is more like this.

No need to worry about pervious owners or anything. The system charges and maintains the bank of batteries you swap with.

If I don't own the product after purchase, the button shouldn't say "buy/purchase" it should say "rent".

I do like the idea of industry standard license.

My thoughts are:

  • They need to limit EULAs to something like 600 words.
  • Make them binding and non-changing to the product purchased, only newly purchased products can get the updated EULA.
  • They should make a Ethics Policy (things like no cheating, be kind, no swearing, etc.) separate from the EULA. This Ethics policy can be updated whenever.

Still doesn't matter if something is "heavily taxed" because regardless of how much tax, you'll never own more in taxes than you made. So if you got a 10,000 bonus and it was heavily taxed at 60 percent, you don't somehow have to pay like 15,000 in taxes or something on it. You pay 60% of 10,000, leaving you with 4,000 left over. This is typically done before you even see the money, if not ensure that you keep funds aside to pay for the tax.

Also looking briefly at Japan, it appears that their income tax is a bracket based system similar to the US. So again, even if you go up a bracket, you'll never own more taxes than you make. Honestly, people need to stop thinking in brackets when it comes to taxes, all you need to worry about is your "effective tax rate." That's it, you don't need to worry that your income pushed you into a 29% tax bracket or whatever. All that matters is your effective tax rate is 24.2% or whatever. You'll never own more money because you "moved" into a higher bracket, because that's not how that works.

Preferably don't. But if you had to, perhaps a 3d version using unreal but with the style of the box art.

How is it fiddly for Windows users?

[–] xradeon@lemmy.one 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

What do you mean by that? Generate a new private/public key pair every time you setup a new TPM? Or when you boot the system or something?

[–] xradeon@lemmy.one 1 points 9 months ago (3 children)

You can't do that since vulnerability is the connection between the TPM and the CPU, you need to encrypt that path.
