The problem is around DNS/IP whitelisting

I worked for a large bank and we eventually gave up on it for customer emails because trying to keep your domain/IP ranges in the correct lists so that you didn't end up in spam folders was so operationally expensive

probably

intel used to sell cheap core solos back in the core duo days, which were just duos where one of the cores was faulty so they disabled it.

Same with the F model (no iGPU) chips today. People have done teardowns and found that more often than not its there on the die, just disabled because its faulty.

It does. Here in the UK at least, it's usually a lot cheaper to take cards than to pay transport (this is a real pain) and deposit fees (the latter is 2% on top of a fixed monthly fee, for my business account) so its usually only tax dodgers that go cash only

I think in the US merchant fees for card transactions are much higher though so may be a different ball game over there.

I bet when you said a 12 litre jug and a 6 litre jug it wrongly assumed that you required it to actually make use of both the jugs in some way (not merely that they were available for possible use), leading to the pointless step.

Anyone with an experience with this? I don't want my address and/or phone number publicly visible, so what are my options here?

Depending where you are, you may already be required to share this information, for example any business here in the UK must have their company registration number , registered office address, and contact (email and post) details, on any website.

matters a lot, most orgs have a whitelist of permitted licences, and if some software you want to use isn't on it you have to jump through loads and loads of hoops, so much its usually not worth it.

not at all, I recall that no one (outside of the music industry perhaps) used the phrase 'digital rights management' until iTunes added DRM to music in 2003/2004, other things like the copy protection for videotapes/DVDs/games were just generically called copyprotection, or other domain specific terms such as activation (in the case of things like windows XP), not DRM.

They might get lucky branding it PaLM but TCL own the trademark on the word Palm (Since the original Palm went out of business, and HP sold it off) in the software space

Wonder if it will end up like the IOS/iOS thing where Apple ended up having to pay Cisco

The main benefit of it is it doesn't wear out unlike USB ports

Ive had way too many phones fail conveniently after 18-24 months (just in time for an expensive 'upgrade'!) because the port has become loose/blocked/whatever, so its a useful backup to have.
