You don't. If you're not my doctor, you don't get access. How do I know you're not putting the data on a misconfigured ElasticSearch instance that's accessible via public internet? Why should I take that chance?

Can we dissolve Facebook and put Zuckerberg and his cronies in jail now? Federal antitrust law says we can, so let's stop fucking around and do it.

Never mind IE11. http://motherfuckingwebsite.com still works on IE6, and why shouldn't it? It's plain HTML with no CSS or JS. There is no reason why any web document should not still be readable in Lynx, Mosaic, or eve

TL;DR A couple of right-wing "comedians" interview a transphobe, put the video on YouTube, and get an email from YouTube saying that that kind of "content" isn't appropriate for YouTube and has been removed. That&#x

I see stuff like inline styles and CSS-in-JS and I can't stop remembering what web development was like in the 1990s before CSS was a thing. It was horrible, and I refuse to ever go back.

Does that matter when most of Netflix's catalog is crap? The problem with Disney+ is that Disney is taking advantage of the monopoly privileges granted by copyright law to vertically integrate their offerings. If you want to steam Disn

I think many Christians would argue otherwise, but I hold them and their beliefs in contempt.

Not an explicit rule, but Jesus is alleged to have said some stuff about how you're committing adultery in you're heart if you so much as look at an attractive person and lust after them.

Intel's CIP is a wannabe NSA spook. The websites I visit should be nobody's business but my own.

If you must ask permission to leave a country, or to live and work in a different country, then you are not as free as you think you are. Citizenship is nothing but serfdom.

Can you provide evidence for that assertion, or are you just heaping abuse upon the poor because you think you can get away with it?

No, we're not. I'm not on your side just because we work for the same company. I'm not even on the company's side. I'm on my side, first and last and always. If cooperation helps me, so be it. But if cooperation har

I can pull the Associated Press' RSS feed for free. Likewise with the BBC and ProPublica and The Intercept. Why would I pay $13/month for news I can get for free without useless "social" features and data collection?

So what? We should ban all advertising, and then nuke corporations who flout the ban or try to find a loophole. And don't tell me advertising is free speech. As far as I'm concerned, corporations are not people and have no rights.

They're nothing but dragons hoarding wealth they aren't using and spreading desolation in the process. Every one of them is a descendant of Smaug.

IMO, there hasn't been a Democrat worth a damn since FDR, and there hasn't been a Republican worth a damn since Eisenhower. I'm already tired of the 2020 electoral farce. I'll vote straight Democrat no matter what becaus
