No, it’s ackshully a private copying levy. I get what you mean, but it’s a “good” thing, because otherwise 12 § upphovsrättslagen probably wouldn’t exist anymore:
Var och en får för privat bruk framställa ett eller några få exemplar av offentliggjorda verk. Såvitt gäller litterära verk i skriftlig form får exemplarframställningen dock endast avse begränsade delar av verk eller sådana verk av begränsat omfång. Exemplaren får inte användas för andra ändamål än privat bruk.
Private copying levy. In Sweden, it’s called privatkopieringsersättning.
Are you saying that I might stop hating coriander when I retire? But I really like broccoli, so maybe it’s a different kind of soap gene…
I forgot what the N stands for in NTP, but the network engineer might know.
I have several WDs with almost 15 years of power on time, not a single failure. Whereas my work bought a bunch of Seagates and our cluster was basically halved after less than 2 years. I have no idea how Seagate can suck so much.
But when people take out their phones and the object gets focused/close enough to see, it morphs into an airplane or such. Like, these aliens have such good technology to be able to morph, but they only do it whenever someone is able to document the sighting?! Crazy stuff!!! 😱
The å is pronounced almost exactly like the English word ‘awe’.
Maybe for the British. Å is pronounced like the beginning of “oar” or the middle of “four”.
They probably don’t want to get sued when someone gets run over or such.
The state’s slogan is “Live Free or Die”, but they get so concerned about signage?
You’re also missing the most important part: that modern voice calls have extreme amounts of compression on it. So even if you were able to modulate the connection correctly, it’d be even slower than the slowest POTS dialup.
What about Saddam Hussein?
I think my girlfriend would be weirded out if I asked her to take domperidone…
“do some direct action to actually help people” instead.
Do you have any recommendations?
Yeah, I took them a few times in NY/PA when on vacation, was around 2019 or so. Not as good as busses here, but it was good enough.
Do you have any recommendations? Most things I’ve seen are tailored to “you’re physically here for a couple weeks” or expensive global plans.
Where? And wouldn’t it be some expensive plans, as you’d be roaming in a different country?
And then when you get past all that, they suddenly want a group interview… like, sit in a room with many other candidates and have an interview.
All houses have at least one urinal. The cool thing is, you’re also able to wash your hands in it afterwards!
Think like this: for our sooo beloved politicians and legal systems, everything in life is seen as a transaction. Due to the fact that I’ve paid my “private copying tax” or whatever you want to call it, I therefore have the right to make private copies and share them with limited groups of people. If they want to restrict those rights that I have paid for, they would “need” to remove the tax – but they will never do that because it’s tons of free money.
But if they did get rid of the tax, there’s no longer that “transaction”, and therefore there’s nothing hindering them from criminalizing private copying. Sweden is already USA’s lapdog in all other regards, so you can bet it’d be repealed quickly.
I don’t support copyright laws either, nor follow them, but I can appreciate how it’s currently set up here, simply because it would otherwise become much much worse. At least here, normal people can do what they want without worrying about getting a legally binding order to pay 700€+ in damages like the Germans get.
