That's true, but it could be the platforms doing the vetting rather than the government.

I'm frankly not sure if that's any better. It's not in the interest of the platforms to do a proper job of it especially if said platforms allow payments through them and get a cut of the sales. So it ends up being the government to enforce it and that opens up another can of worms.

So what happens if they're not based on the US?

Completely ignoring the stuff that's been happening in the South China Sea and the Indian border huh?

Rest of the world if you live in Europe or China where they have enough bargaining power from their size I suppose. Doubt this will work in smaller countries and regions. Only hope is that the manufacturers feel that it's not worth it to make 2 different models of the same car.

I hate this chasing of overly complicated and excessive software in cars. The only touchscreen I want in my car is the one that let's me run Android Auto for GPS and music. Everything else should be tactile analog switches and dials. Whichever person thought touchscreens are a safe UI choice in a fast moving death machine is insane.

It's the humidity in tropical regions. If it's not sealed properly, your biscuits will absorb the moisture in the air and turn soft. They're not oxygen removers, they're water vapour removers and it's there for a reason. It's not because we hate the environment or we're nuts. Hell, English as far as I know doesn't even have a word in common usage for it. In Hokkien we have a word "lau hong" which literally means to lose air as in lose the crispness of the biscuit.

Hell, there's also so many ants here that when I was in Finland, I was shocked that people leave biscuits as is without putting them into containers. If you do it in South East Asia, your biscuits would have become an ant colony in hours.

I don't see how other methods aren't immune to this issue without asking you to do verification every day.

Yea that absolutely sucks for the Koreans. Doesn't make any sense unless maybe they're trying to counter people selling their accounts or something?

Hardly ideal. But I'm glad they're at least accepting credit cards. Anything else like face verification, passports and national ID cards are crossing a line imo.

Same here, got an OLED laptop and hesitated installing Ubuntu on it for dev work because I was afraid that the OLED maintenance tasks wouldn't execute.

Yea they makes a lot more sense, I was wondering how in the world were they able to get access to your file system from the browser. Turns out, they aren't.

Yea, I think they usually make it out of paper?
