What I understood as the significance of this ruling is that it establishes a different precedent for companies that are considered to participate in "two-sided markets" in relation to anti-trust law. I would be curious to hear so

It's been interesting watching the upvote count on this. I was the first upvote, then later on once it had fallen off the first page of /newest it still only had a few upvotes and I assumed it would die. Now after the mod interven

Wow! This is one of those tiny corners of the internet that embodies a certain mystique, like the feeling of stumbling across hidden treasure. I have nothing to add other than to encourage others to check out the visualizations of these wei

Yeah, I am getting hit by this too. I still want to support Linode but can't if this is going to be a regular occurrence. How long ago was the last outage?

The broader context for those that haven't read the (interesting) article is that the sexual stimulation occurs in a room full of people, which is fine too of course. The creepiness sets in for reasons beyond that. Not a puritan, but I

For an ounce though? I picked that amount because it's not a lot, but it is generally considered to be more than a "personal use" amount. You're best bet in the US getting caught with that much or more is to just get rob
