Mama told me not to come.
She said, that ain’t the way to have fun.
They certainly are, but they’re also a bit dystopic. I don’t want random people looking up stats about my online presence, and I certainly don’t want the police doing that either.
I can see tons of cool applications, but also tons of ethical issues.
And that’s also the main reason I don’t want these to exist. I don’t want to be identified by random people, and I especially don’t want police to have access to something like this. People I spend time with know who I am, and I’m fine missing out on random same place/same time coincidences with people I knew from high school or something.
They do.
The basis for the FUD is that Cloudflare controls a lot of the web since they’re used as a CDN, DDOS mitigation, domain registration, etc. However, what the FUD fails to mention is they don’t provide most of the infrastructure for the web, Amazon AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure totally dwarf their footprint. DDOS protection and whatnot may be provided largely by Cloudflare, but not the rest of the web stack.
Cloudflare very much doesn’t want one or two companies to dominate the web because that’ll kill their business model. The more diversity there is on the web, the more attractive their services are, because people are willing to pay for things to just work.
I’m guessing cute bandaids and an ice cream cone would be sufficient.
Nexsar owns ABC affiliates and wants to buy Tegna, which owns more affiliate stations.
Disney isn’t really part of that deal, but I’m guessing they also want to appease the FCC for similar reasons.
Colbert’s show seems completely unrelated. My understanding is that the cancellation has been planned for some time and has more to do with it having run for 10 years than anything political he has said.
No, I’m pretty sure it’s about the money. They wanted a merger and didn’t want trouble, so they cut Jimmy Kimmel’s show to help that progress more smoothly.
Disney is really easy to understand because it is always about the money with them.
How is your router “full”?
You can be sued for defamation regardless of the target, as long as you damaged their reputation with false statements. It’s a lot easier to prove damages against a company than a regular person though.
You probably opted out years ago. Check your Steam notifications settings.
Your friends buy you stuff?
Mine exists so I can avoid the front page. I have it filtered to show only discounted games, so when I need a game, there’s almost always something I’m interested in that’s on sale since I have over 100 games on that list.
Really?
I just open the Steam app on my phone periodically. I have over 100 games there, so there’s usually a few on sale on any given day. I have my wishlist set to “discount” so only games on sale are shown, and I check it periodically and buy when a game gets to an interesting price.
I never look at Steam emails.
That doesn’t cost them anything
It’s an opportunity cost. What other games would have otherwise shown? If the game isn’t appealing, that’s poor use of ad space and could result in lost sales for another game that would then in its place.
I think it’s the right thing to do, though perhaps the window should’ve been longer, like 3 days. But saying it costs nothing isn’t accurate.
I’m the same way. I’ll periodically prune it, but most of the games there have been there over a year. If the game goes on a really good sale, I might get it, but I probably won’t.
Local, but we might consider remote of the right senior candidate comes along. We have 3 remote devs in a team of 20-ish.
semi-comma
Would a semi-comma be a space in the same sense that a semicolon is just before colon?
In 1644, in Richard Hodges’ The English Primrose, it is written:
At a comma, stop a little; […] At a semi-colon, somewhat more; […] At a colon, a little more than the former; […] At a period, make a full stop;
Man, that sucks.
And yeah, I agree that a drug dog shouldn’t automatically trigger probable cause, but instead merely reasonable suspicion, meaning they can detain, but not search. They shouldn’t even be able to request a warrant based only on a drug dog hit. They should need multiple articulable reasons to suspect you of a crime to get to the point of a warrant, search, or arrest.
It turns out more than just the person I responded to read these comments. That is who this exchange is for, OP likely doesn’t care one iota since they’ve already made their decision (and I mine). I’m merely suggesting that home ownership isn’t essential and may even be detrimental to financial success (depending on local markets and personal habits).
I hope it’s an eye opener for someone that decides to do the math and find out for themselves what’s ideal for them. I don’t care one bit if people buy a house or not after reading what I have to say, I only hope that purchasing a house is a lifestyle choice and not an obligation to “get ahead.”
American dudes getting rich instead of Chinese dudes, though they’ll make the Chinese dudes rich in the process.
Abd while you’re at it, reddit, twitter, any any other SM service I missed.
Sure. My point is that same technology can and will be used to violate peoples’ privacy, and in some cases could create dangerous situations (e.g. domestic violence victim being recognized by their attacker).
