I noticed a similar thing being done for Bird scooters a while back. I forget the suffix but they did the same and I noticed because I was still authed on my phone after requesting deletion. My token has expired since then though so for all

Reasonable considering the situation , sure. But the situation shouldn't be happening in the first place. I could understand closing off the API even. What I don't accept is shuttering the Android app. I wish they would keep that

I think you make some valid points for some people, but I think you may be overlooking the fact that for some, the social connections made at work can be very valuable. Especially for people who recently move to a new area, "work frien

There is no broadcast, but when you are scrolling your feed you will see a selection of friends who have liked each post. Also if you view the activity feed (in a different corner of the app) you can see what your friends have been up to. T

My issue with my TCL is that with Roku built in to the TV it is able to track what I watch even outside of Roku "channels". If I plug in a Roku over HDMI it can only track how I use the Roku, not the rest of the TV. Last time I ch

I'm the most cynical interpretation possible: You need to listen to them in order to be able to refute them. So if you want to change their minds you need to listen to understand what their belief is founded on so you know what you nee

Not a bad thought. Though I think it had some problems that they already considered. They mention not wanting to overstate the danger ("touch this and you die") in case someone touches the rock and does NOT die, putting doubt on t

PiHole has the option to have blackholed domains show a "This was blocked by PiHole, click here to whitelist this domain". It doesnt work perfectly (ex. Hulu just craps out for me with PiHole because of some domain under the hood

Very much this. I have made a point to give somewhat legitimate answers to these questions out of fear that a phone agent would ask them someday and that I could fall victim to exactly what you describe. Phone agents don't always have

All that an Apple signature proves is that the developer is paying Apple for the privilege. And, theoretically, apple has vetted the app to some minimal extent. But there is little stopping a signed app from becoming malicious, so from a se

Take all advice on this with a grain of salt please. And never directly trust someone who says "use this specific VPN because it is good". Their threat model may not match yours, so good for them may not be good for you. If you wo

If you like OP's site, you may also like this one. I keep returning to it whenever I need to mess with pathfinding. It gives a great step by step of the efficiency of each when it comes to specific paths: https://qiao.github

I think the concern is the breadth of information that the NSA has been known to gather. This is all speculation (though informed by the Snowden revelations), but if the NSA asks DDG for data for some legitimate reason, it is likely that th

We are talking about smart home things here though, which usually depend on their own services anyway. This is more of a problem with things like Windows reaching out to msftconnecttest.com or some other generic internet service. But in the

Horrifying. I hope she ends up winning a case on this. Even if it is just to get to move out early for free at least it's something. But wow. I'd be doing the same as her if this were forced on me. I love IoT things. But I draw th

Agreed. This really just sounded like a "Look at this new tool I found" type of article. Which is great, but I was disappointed that he didn't go over bugs that he found with this method and more specific value-adds that this

I hate that the government is shut down. It's stupid that people's livelihoods are a bargaining chip, especially when every administration talks about increasing jobs. But it hasn't personally affected me yet. I am not a gove

Overall I agree with you. And I'm pretty disappointed with this experiment page. The previous ones were better for sure. But to your Amazon example, doodles might be the new best way to find "that thing with the stick out the top

We have a similar pattern in my product (large Win32 app). We have "Assert" which throws a dialog in Debug then continue execution, but is removed in Prod. and then we have "IfFailedCrash" type asserts that immediately c

This is correct, but you must list your full legal name as the store listing, which isnt very ideal in my opinion. In order to list it as a business name you need an LLC or more. No Sol Proprietors allowed.

Dumb question, but is this something that a dev would expect the compiler to do for us automatically depending on what is deemed most efficient or is this something that a developer can write directly into the code to make it work this way?

Nice. I have to admit though I was hoping you would collect a list of email addresses or domains in the script and tag it that way as well. I'd love to take back control of my inbox from the google automatic filters. I rarely check my

Defeatest of realist? You can and should work to reduce your footprint if that concerns you, but there are still systematic issues that make it hard to stay completely outside of there services. Mainly what OP mentioned with contact uploads

You feel comfortable blocking entire TLDs like that? I understand they send a lot of spam, but what about valid emails from those TLDs?

The products are very nice. And to a point I have started to trust Google innately. Not that that is necessarily a good thing. I understand their need for data. It makes business and technical sense. I just wish they made more of an effort

I don't like this at all. As makecheck said, not all users are the same. Me for example, I am 100% willing to disable my ad blocker for two reasons: 1) if support the website 2) if the ads that I see do not interfere with using the si
