Because it's a hassle and it's easier to keep using it so far, and the alternatives aren't as nice in other ways. It's going to be a bigger pain to do it once I'm forced to, but…

I'd certainly leave immediately.

This will be abused. Maybe not immediately, but it's just a matter of time.

You get one single appeal, and in my experience they don't give you any additional information on what you may have done to get banned and just tell you you're going to stay banned.

I was banned for invalid click activity. I NEVER clicked any of my ads intentionally and never asked anyone else to either. One time I misclicked and hit an ad and immediately looked up whether I needed to report it and found a page saying

Same. The closest to any sort of answer I was able to get was something suggesting the clicks from my site's visitors weren't profitable enough for them therefore I'm permanently banned from ever putting AdSense ads on that o

It was advertised as being capped and it turned out they hadn't coded a cap into it. If you read the entire thread, the developers appear to just realize this as well after the issue is reported. They then later decide to keep it as it

It will encourage tipping (giving it away in large numbers), not real trading. As mentioned elsewhere, why sell goods for it if the value will keep dropping?

This effectively killed my interest in the currency completely. I've stopped mining it. I suspect this may be what they want: to keep it basically worthless so people keep using it to tip people large amounts and have fun with it, and

As a freelance developer, GitHub is useless for me as a git hosting service, because with the number of repositories I need to keep up as remotes I would be paying a ridiculous monthly fee. I like BitBucket's model of unlimited private

I definitely stop watching shows with obnoxious product placement. It cheapens the feel and makes it seem like a big ad instead of art.

by LoganCale 13y ago
Complete nonsense. All product placement is awkward when it lingers on the product and tries to show off its features instead of just being the characters and camera acting naturally while using a particular product. It doesn't matter

Unless a book shows an actual lack of skill or intelligence behind it, I will persist and finish it, because many of my favorite books are books I didn't realize were as amazing as they are until I got quite a distance into them.

I spend at least one day a week hiking, sometimes two or more if opportunities arise. I used to bike 10+ miles daily but haven't been for a while and need to get back into it. Several times per year I do week long backpacking and/

And that's the important distinction. Because it's not on the router, it's not kept as private information. And it's on by default, so if you want to see any blocked things you have to announce to your ISP, "I want

Not all Bitcoin-derived technologies are necessarily intended to be an actual currency, though some do still get traded for other currencies (usually for a very low amount).

Every webcam should have a hardware light that indicates when it is on, as the ones built into Apple laptops do. The light cannot be disabled through software, it's just wired into the power connection to the camera and always comes on

In Chrome, you can use Vanilla. It may not have as many options, but it works fairly well.

Of course it's horrible. Life is all there is. When you die, from your perspective, that is the end of all things. That's pretty horrible. Just because it's natural doesn't make it good.

I believed it until > Shortly after Mr. Obama’s volcanic performance, Mr. Putin released a terse official statement, reading, “I should be afraid of this skinny man? I wrestle bears.” and then I also saw "The Borowitz Report".
