I'd recommend not coming up with inventive fixes like this. There's a non-zero chance that check is in some server-side validation that you can't work around, and one day something you rely on becomes unrecoverable. Take it as a sign that it won't always work

You're missing the point. Towns come out ahead when the people living there come out ahead. I'm not arguing with your math, but your math is also a straight line to a town with no people at all being better. Towns are for _people_.

One hallmark of poor quality software is the existence of a separate cleanup tool in case the uninstall doesn't work

I think it's more than publicity. Anyone can stand as a candidate, and anyone can vote for them. Money and connections and establishment and everything else don't matter, all candidates are equal on that stage. It's both weird and to be admired.

In much the same way as some HR departments exist to protect the business from their employees, some Finance departments exist to not pay the bills (for as long as possible). They may of course do this because the business itself is not being paid

Thanks. Appreciate the thought trail. For an employer, if they delete the data later (if I don't get the job) then I'm ok with that since I'm expecting it to be accessed and used by humans.

Interesting about the website forms that have separate options for each category, I'd always believed this was to wear me down so I click "agree" once instead of changing 98 separate sliders to no.

Can i withdraw consent later? So, attend the interview (to maximise my chances of being offered the job), and then after the application process withdraw consent?

> If you don’t like games that require a server to function don’t buy them, that’s a choice that can be made.

"buy" is doing some heavy lifting here. If I buy something, it is mine. If someone else can arbitrarily take it away or stop it working, then it was mis-sold, because what I've really done is rent for an indeterminate period of time. What should be clear up front is whether I'm buying or renting.

It's an impressive model and I'd like to see it in the Lego shop - but I wouldn't like to own it. When it comes time to use the pieces for something else, that's ten thousand beige blocks. Its like some of the Star Wars Lego, for instance the AT-AT is a fantastic creation but its just all the same colour, and to me isn't interesting for more than a few minutes. I like the larger builds that are minifigure-scaled e.g. the bookshop or Hogsmeade or Ninjago city gardens, there's much more detail and variation and fun

I tried to watch the video on the website, but it auto scrolls to the next video whilst playing

'The changelog reads “performance improvements.”' was the truest part for me. Surely what we're releasing is the most fundamental thing to understand, yet almost every single app update I see is this or something jokey that really means "don't know" or "don't care"

Depends what you're looking for. If I'm looking for businesses or streetview or 3D I'll use Google Maps. If I want to explore I'll use openstreetmap. Sometimes I'll use public rights of way mapping or parking zone boundaries on local council websites, or hiking-specific mapping apps that overlay routes. Having one mapping app that does it all would be nice, but each serves their purpose
