Take Twitter as an example - using older versions of Firefox. They claim that "videos are not supported in your browser" but on occasion the video begins playing before being paused. Sometimes the "what version is your browse

Federation works just fine - the problem is getting "non-techies" to care enough to join in, discoverability, and ease of joining. So they almost all suffer from lack of a social network and are used by only a niche community. Peo

Disgruntled Washington bureaucrats have money. Money can buy you black hat devs. A few minutes work for a chance at $[x-xx],000? Done and done. Payment upon successful phish. There are plenty of people that value money over morals.

Google penalizes paywalls in Search Results. To get around this, if you have a referral header from Google companies often won't show the paywall for that article. This works for many, if not most, online publications.

This is the second, possibly third, time I've seen you link to your post about public file hosting - and this is the second, possibly third, time I'll agree entirely. There are tons of pomf.se clones - many that have been going on

For better or worse, large portions of society (especially those found in academia and cities) have decided that a level playing field is more important than having any playing field. So to answer your question: it no longer matters wheth

I'm talking different countries (re: immigration) and not minority groups within a country. If you don't like Culture A and want Culture B, stay in Culture B's country. If you think Culture B has problems and that's why

People who can hardly-afford-their-(new)-home will also move to expensive areas to avoid being around the "typical" poor people: alcoholics, drug-addicts, dropouts, street gangs, etc. My mother raised me as a single mom. Her two

You can be as efficient as possible and work towards improving productivity and still lose money . That's exactly why those sorts of things are supported by taxes. And with how much Japan has innovated and improved their railways over

I've somehow managed to not hear about this at all, so thanks for the news. Although I wasn't focused at all at handheld/portability. Just mentioning the Harvest Moon/Stardew Valley fanbase (and the huge overlap between

For all of your mega city visits, have you been to Tokyo? If so what did you find unreliable about it? The one criticism I can see is when transport is slowed/halted due to typhoons. I found that the public transportation in most of

There will also be a sizable number of people who pick it up for Splatoon 2, Stardew Valley (for people who miss the old Harvest Moon games), Fire Emblem (2018), and Mario Kart (April 28th). Each of those has a large, dedicated fanbase. Alt

Yes. In my opinion, entirely. I'm also a believer that how one chooses to speak impacts their behavior and ultimately how they think (of themselves and others). People who speak negatively tend to be negative people. I find the opposit

The GC controller is the best gaming controller, IMHO. Followed by the SNES controller. My hands have never cramped playing my Gamecube or SNES. They cramp constantly trying to play FF15 on my PS4 and playing Xbox isn't much better.

Because the amount of productive work hours most people get per week is realistically closer to 20-30. The rest of the time they are being paid for their presence. If the day's work is done at 11am, I hope you enjoy twiddling your thum

Tails can boot from USB. You don't need to not use Windows/OSX, you just need to boot into Tails prior to using PGP. Is it inconvenient? Yes. Almost all privacy/security is . Security is largely a series of tradeoffs between

I practice psuedonomity instead of anonymity. "Nadya Nayme" is just a play on "Not a name". It allows me to have an identity while speaking my mind and hiding my real self from the general population. I don't think
