It isn't the number that is illegal, it's the number plus information on how to use it.

No advertising agency sells your data. That would destroy all their competitive advantage. They sell access to the people they have data on. Regardless, it's irrelevant because the App Store labels aren't about selling the data, b

This isn't correct in the UK under NHS. There's a set amount NHS is willing to pay for drugs and treatment, and beyond that, it's refused altogether. You'd have to go elsewhere and on your own dime for expensive treatmen

Currently my most commonly used tool in Termux is youtube-dl from pip. Please point to how you can install it via these other Java based shells or language REPLs. Termux provides a lot more functionality than an interpreter.

If you're committed to sticking with a really old phone and want to use Termux, you should switch to a custom ROM based on more modern Android. Android 5 and 6 are ancient at this point.

That doesn't mean the voters were brainwashed into supporting something they otherwise wouldn't have.

That is not at all what zero sum means. If you're going to use a widely-used term at the core of an argument, you should be sure you're doing so correctly.

What makes you say advertising is zero-sum? This doesn't seem to be the case at all to me. Take diamonds for example. Prior to the mid 1900s, diamonds weren't nearly as sought after as they are currently. It took the marketing and

Before globalization and huge logistical advances there was barely any way to capitalize on works in the public domain... your parents probably didn't benefit nearly as much as you may think. Also, calling this "legal abuse"

Theoretically companies like Mindgeek who have been kicked off of the VISA/Mastercard duopoly, would be able to use Bitcoin as a censorship-resistant way to accept online payment. There's additional benefits as mentioned earlier l

This year Amazon went on a hiring spree to fill the extra demand. Does that count as sharing the profit to you then?

A lot of that is because people are living long enough to have those types of issues pop up.

It's clear that the Wild West style of the Internet is coming to an end. However, this bill is particularly worrying because as written, it may end up affecting even porn art sites. It seems that there isn't a distinction between

This site clearly doesn't want to, but you still have people like the GP and others here complaining. You can't have your cake and eat it too. If commenters here want sites to have the option to not deal with Europe, then they sho

How is making an OnlyFans account, where the content creator is completely in control of their actions, in any way comparable to pimping? There isn't even a "pimp" in this scenario. The women have 100% agency in when, how, an

I'm surprised at how much impact the NYT's expose (I would personally consider it more of a hit piece) has had. I naively assumed that PornHub, as a top-10 site on the web would be immune to such a piece, but I guess I was wrong.

Well at least on the first point, nonreversible transactions are extremely desired in the porn market. A constant uphill battle for payment processing is that people spending money on porn sites often have "regret" (or, less chari

A lot of proctoring software will flag you for that as well. Then when the professor reviews the footage it will be obvious that you're talking to someone off screen.

Most proctoring software that records the student would trivially root out the cheating method you mentioned about reading aloud the questions to someone else. They usually record audio as well, and if the software detects significant micro

Cyanogenmod is still alive and thriving as LineageOS. The goal was never to beat (Google) Android, it's just a custom ROM that provides many desirable features.

Not only are the authors of that survey biased, but they are outright admitting to manipulating the data to suit their ends. From the slides: Key goal: Representative sample of on-demand _work_ being done in the city, not of all on-demand

I'm not sure how iOS can be considered a bastion for the web when it doesn't even have WebM support, which has been used across the web for years.

The point is, if you point to the 7/8 clause as an attack against the prop 22 by saying that it's incredibly hard to modify, you've just revealed that you're an uninformed voter. Ballot measures normally can't be
