It is a dark pattern, you hit allow twice so that you can't hit block and they can't pester you any more. It is like the similar dark pattern for phone ratings. "How do you like this app?" you get some stars, if you vote

I think 4chan got it right calling this job "Janitor". I used to be (technically still am although I no longer go to the site) a moderator of a mid sized subreddit. It is a thankless job where you are shit on constantly for trying

Yeah, but that problem exists with all levels of software development. The best I've seen so far is signed packages in Linux. But even then you must trust someone.

This editorialized article reads like it was written by a Apple appologist. I highly doubt that the iPhone 6 will single handedly cause the demise of the Android platform.

Honestly, Mozilla should put together an official version of this plugin, since this feature is absolutely essential to browsers nowadays.

The warning is not for me, I understand these things, but it is a disturbing trend of people thinking copy and pasting command prompts is an OK thing to do.

Which would be better though, a rush job, or something that has polish (which seems to be the whole goal of Elementary). I suppose it is kind of like the difference between Valve and so many other games publishers out there.

It goes without saying, it is ill advised to copy and paste terminal commands to the internet without knowing what they actually do...

What you say is valid, however no-script users are a small minority of internet users. I doubt their numbers would tip the results in either direction.

@kelkabany I find this interesting, but two questions. 1. Would you be able to provide a downloadable working copy of the python source? 2. Picloud seems to be limited to 5GB files, most video files that one would transcode are larger than
