I want to see all tweets of the people I follow. Precisely because I decided to follow them. It's the whole point of the site for me. Seeing all the updates from accounts I care about.
No, that gives almost zero information as to the known cause:
> A technical incident in the Galileo ground infrastructure is affecting the functioning of the Galileo system, as a result of which there is a temporary interruption of some of the Galileo initial services.
> The cause of the technical incident is identified and recovery actions are implemented to ensure that the nominal service is resumed as soon as possible while safeguarding quality of the services.
As a gamer? None of them really, the features table is also inaccurate on several rows. "AES" and "AES-NI" are the ame thing, and so are "Intel 64" and "AMD64". So it is a bit confusing to read because the features intersect more but the names are different on each row.
As a data analyst if you're using optimized libraries (numpy, Fortran or C/C++ compiled for your machine, manually written libraries), then you may care about AVX (advanced vector extensions), AVX2, and FMA (fused multiply add) operations.
Yeah, I am not sure what is so special about this. I expected some truly unique ports. My 13.3" Fujitsu Siemens S936 has no USB-C (age) but all the others plus a smartcard and a sim card slot. 12.5" is not exactly a magnitude smaller.
> He developed the sorting algorithm quicksort in 1959/1960. He also developed Hoare logic for verifying program correctness, and the formal language communicating sequential processes (CSP) to specify the interactions of concurrent processes (including the dining philosophers problem) and the inspiration for the occam programming language.
No, iOS prevents the application from directly accessing files without the user’s permission. The user can choose to allow access granularly to a file via the file picker within the app.
There are also separate permissions to allow apps to read and write from the media library.
"The state is made up by the people it represents so by this, society benefits as whole."
almost all of the people that make up the "state" represent only themselves. and i'd wager most of the people that are elected to represent people are the same.
Leaving aside the fact that the article does say though that the fine is also divided up between other EU data protection organisations... Equifax lost my data, it is unlikely that the American government be compensating me from any fines / enforcement action they take (I am not an American)
Conversely, if someone went to jail over this, at a net cost to the UK taxpayer, would the British Government be able to claim expenses from around the world? Has every other government that has citizens using BA chipped in to pay for the ICO?
Fines are a punishment not compensation. Whilst as a UK taxpayer I am delighted at this tremendous bounty my nation has received - and the thought of it getting into foreign hands disgusts me (/s) I would rather have law-abiding organisations.

I would think that is enough for at least 3,660 man prison years - so I guess a lot of people are going to go to jail for something which was just a mistake. But then again not surprising with UK being so dystopian and all. Glad I don't work there.
Not only is this false in the national sense, as the machinery and personnel of the state are not coterminous with those they rule over, but it is also false in this specific sense, as many of the people who were harmed by this breach (such as myself) were not involved or are not permitted to be involved with the regulatory body that is assessing this fine.
Many people who are not British subjects are customers of BA.
The ICO does not represent me, yet somehow they are getting paid for the misuse of my data.
The fine is not there to repair the damage made to individual customers. The fine is there to punish the Corp for its bad practices, and to scare other Corps into having good data protection practices. It's a punishment and a deterrent.
If you want personal compensation, free to sue BA.
