The judge that banned X also stated a fine of 10k for anyone using a VPN to circumvent the ban.
Difficult to police and enforce, but it's been made clear that accessing X is considered illegal

Oh, this looks great!
I've been struggling between customize and helm. Neither seem to make k8s easier to work with.
I have to try cuelang now. Something sensible without significant whitespace that confuses editors, variables without templating.
I'll have to see how it holds up with my projects
This is what "eat the rich" and "if a punishment is a fee, it's an operating cost" mean. You get your company banned and personal assets seized. It's delicious.
Anyway, I'm not going to take your outrage seriously.
First it was hell bent that no legal process had been done, which took me all of 2 seconds of googling to disprove.
Now it's that only uncivilised places would dare seize personal assets. And somehow still that no legal process has been done.
This has been going on for months, with musk acting like the man-baby he is.

Your sarcasm detector has clearly failed
Reviews and feedback of packaging and non-sustainable materials is significant.
Businesses are extremely unlikely to change out of their own good will, unless there is some sort of review and something more sustainable ends up being cheaper. They'll only change due to consumer pressure.
Recycling eventually will catch up with our expectations.
Plastic may not be recycled now (well, certainly not to our expectations). But it will be, eventually. And hopefully the demand for recycled plastics will improve the whole cycle, where companies use recycled materials.
I always appreciate cardboard packaged products
Buying extra sets of bed linen is easiest the best money I have spent.
When I was younger, I'd get away with changing less often and rushing the full bed linen through in a day.
Now, I can take a few days to do that laundry, and have fresh bedding whenever I want.
At least 2 sets of bed linen is a fantastic investment
Sure, but the fines have gone unpaid.
The private owner of the private company X has enough money to cover the fines.
Brazil is now seizing assets to try and recover the amount due.
X isn't declaring bankruptcy. X is flaunting legal rulings and dodging fines.
If that scares away "investors" that are going to skirt or flaunt laws, rulings and legality then it seems like a decent result for Brazil.
I was a bit older, but that's the same reason I started. Somehow an accepted break that doesn't get rushed, and a bit of daylight.
Additionally, the judge froze the financial assets of Starlink, Musk's satellite internet company, to cover unpaid fines amounting to 18.5 million reais ($3.28 million) imposed on X for non-compliance.
So, exactly what Brazil has done?
Edit:
Some more detail on the daily fines imposed, and total fines due.

HDMI to DVI is normally a passive adapter, so also reversible. There are super cheap ones on Amazon.
For 1080p, any will do
The first round of tools for any hobby or DIY project.
If you don't know what you want from a screwdriver, snips, circular saw etc. then there is no point in buying the super primo bells & whistles expensive stuff.
Once you've used a tool and learned what you don't like about it, or what you actually use it for, or how often you actually use it... Then you can make the informed decision to just buy another cheap one, or splash out on something that's actually fun to use.
Buy the 2nd last tool you will ever need.
There are rare occasions where "buy once cry once" apply. But it's rare
