Why app makers have a problem with Apple & Google? Several app makers have raised complaints regarding the tech giants’ demands for mandatory revenue sharing for sales of digital goods. Curators of Spotify, Match Group etc. are not happy with the strict inclusion of rules set by Apple’s App Store for iPhones and iPads, and have said that it is this dominance that gives rise to anti-competitive behaviour. Spotify said Apple blocked it from telling customers that they could find cheaper prices outside its iPhone app....

While bunions cannot be reversed, they can be treated to reduce pain and improve mobility. By knowing what a bunion looks like and how it is likely to progress, you can know when it is time to see a healthcare provider and seek appropriate care. While we tend to associate bunions with older people, they can often start to develop as early as childhood. While symptomatic hallux valgus is most commonly seen in people over 65, as many as 23 percent of cases will involve younger adults, according to research from the University of Queensland in Australia....

Without the complex chemical reactions inside your vehicle’s 12V battery, you wouldn’t even be able to turn on your car or much less turn down your power windows. Read on to explore the ingenious ways in which your car battery works and how it teams up with the car’s alternator to make your car a better place to spend time. How Does a 12V Car Battery Work? The car battery works with chemical reactions....

Acute How to say it: Acute (ah-KEWT) What it means: Coming on suddenly or severely. Where it comes from: From Latin, acūtus, a sharpened point; a violent onset. Where you might see or hear it: Many health conditions can be described as being acute, meaning that they last a short time (compared to a chronic condition, which lasts a long time). When you might want to use it: One example of an acute illness that many people are familiar with is appendicitis....

The move will come two weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) struck down Roe v. Wade, which protected the Constitutional right to an abortion for nearly 50 years, in a controversial decision that was lauded by conservatives and condemned by abortion rights advocates. A White House fact sheet released ahead of the signing said that the executive order was a response to the SCOTUS ruling, and reaffirmed Biden’s support for abortion rights....

The Changing Phone-Company Landscape It was only a few years ago that all of the major phone companies subsidized the cost of a new iPhone in exchange for customers signing up for a two-year contract. That meant that you could get an iPhone for a big discount off its full retail price if you just agreed to use that company for a few years. These days, though, phone-company subsidies and long-term contracts are mostly gone....

So tagging means assigning a keyword or phrase that describes the theme of a group of articles, photos, videos, or other types of media files as a way to organize them and access them easily later. A tag can also be used to assign a piece of content to another user. For example, if you published a couple of articles on a blog about dog training, but not all of your blog posts were about dog training, then you might assign just those couple of posts to the ‘dog training’ tag for easy organization....

From 2010 to 2013, the team had continuously won the Formula 1 Drivers’ and Constructors’ championship titles, and created a dynasty for themselves in the sport’s hall of fame. Red Bull, along with engine partners Renault, and German Wonder Boy Sebastian Vettel, created history and legacy in these 4 years. However, the domination did not last, and the legacy was hard to replicate, thereafter. That’s because, as soon as the new 1....

“So glad I ordered the tempura shrimp 🍤 SO GOOD 😋” “Wanna go to that new Japanese restaurant tonight? I’ve heard they have awesome Ebi Furai 👀🍤” “Louisiana cooking is where it’s at! 🍤🦀🌽” “Nothing beats a seafood buffet 😋🍤🐙🦞” “She’s really ticking me off 🍤” “There was no one else on the bus, and guess what he does?

“Called out of work today. . . Wanna hangout? 😈” “I know we’re not supposed to, but I love giving my favorite customers my employee discount. 😈” “Maybe this is immature, but what if we prank called Mandy? 😈” “Do you like my outfit? 😈” “Can’t stop thinking about you.

On one hand, this Insomniac Games acquisition by Sony isn’t so surprising, as the developer’s CEO Ted Price himself drew attention to the fact that the company has closely worked with Sony for two decades, spanning a total of 4 Playstation consoles, 20 total games, and 6 franchises. On the other hand, however, this acquisition signals a significant philosophical change for the Spider-Man developer. The studio’s independence was once a point of pride for the developer, despite working solely with Sony Interactive Entertainment for decades....

The first Thursday night game of the year was shown on NBC, as it was technically as “Sunday Night Football” game. In Weeks 2-4, NFL Network had the exclusive broadcast rights for “Thursday Night Football,” so the games viewed there. Week 7’s matchup figures to be an intriguing one between the Browns and the Broncos. Both teams started the season strong but have since slipped up a bit. The Broncos are 3-3 after losing three straight games, as Teddy Bridgewater’s effectiveness has seemed to wane every week....

But those two didn’t play last week, either, and Mayfield still became a headliner thanks to his performance in one quick drive against Washington. Now the NFL preseason schedule sends the Mayfield show to Indianapolis, where Cleveland might again send out its starting QB to run a two-minute drill seemingly just for the hell of it. MORE: Watch Browns vs. Colts live with fuboTV (7-day free trial) The best Browns position battle to watch in Saturday’s game against the Colts is the fight for the No....

Cleveland was one of the darlings of the offseason, but a disastrous 30-point loss to Tennessee in Week 1 deflated the hype. New York, meanwhile, gave up 17 unanswered points to the Bills in the final 19 minutes to blow a 16-0 lead. A beef between Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and Jets defensive coordinator Gregg Williams has sprouted in the run-up to the game, with Beckham saying Williams has directed players to take cheap shots at him, which Williams denies....

The defending Stanley Cup winner St. Louis Blues will face off against the 2018 Cup champion Washington Capitals in their season opener Wednesday. Before the game, the Blues will raise their Stanley Cup banner to the rafters and look to pick up where they left off last year. In the meantime, the Caps will look to start their season on the right foot after a disappointing first-round exit at the hands of the Carolina Hurricanes in April....

This year is a bit of a different story with the Flames looking like a much stronger team than the one from two years ago and the Stars regressing since 2020. But the two meet again in the first round of this postseason. Calgary took control of the Pacific Division early and ran with it. The line of Johnny Gaudreau, Matthew Tkachuk and Elias Lindholm have been one of the best lines all season....

Well, six weeks into the season, one team is 4-2 and the other is the Denver Broncos. That’s right. The experts were all wrong about the Jets and Broncos this season. At least, up to this point. The Jets have shocked the rest of the league by rattling off three straight wins as head coach Robert Saleh’s promise to “keep receipts” from those who mocked his team now looks like a wise decision....

Carolina took care of business against Boston, defeating the Bruins in Game 3-2 to take the series. Tony DeAngelo and Jaccob Slavin led the way for the team with eight points apiece. The team got depth scoring throughout the series with four players recording at least three goals and eight players having at least two. All this coming on the back of a sensational performance by Antti Raanta in net, who played with Frederik Andersen still out with a lower-body injury....

The last time these two teams met in Week 11, Cleveland’s Myles Garrett swung at Pittsburgh’s Mason Rudolph with a helmet and was suspended for the rest of the season. Garrett wasn’t the only player punished as the league handed down several suspensions and fines to numerous players involved in the altercation that took place at the end of Cleveland’s 21-7 win over Pittsburgh. Chances are, tempers will flare again when the two teams meet this week in Pittsburgh, albeit without the major players involved in the brawl....

Live updates, highlights from TCU-Texas matchup The Horned Frogs are the last undefeated team in the conference and one of only four such teams in the Power 5 (the other three being Georgia, Ohio State and Michigan). If Sonny Dykes can get his team past Steve Sarkisian and Texas, it would be TCU’s fifth ranked win of the season, tied for most in the country with Tennessee.
