Which I really doubt. This guy’s involvement in cryptocurrencies is just about shilling them in exchange of real cash. I’d be surprised if he held any cryptocoins at all.

Maybe this was true back in 2008. Nowadays brands are the cesspool itself.

Honestly, blocking memes would be the only good result of this law. I can’t wait to see social networks cleaned of that crap.

Just wondering how they’re going to keep people on the platform with these annoyances. People can tolerate ads on FB itself because it provides an unique experience that’s hard to replicate elsewhere (due to the network effects), but I don’

Haven’t really used them directly, but pipenv has a check command that tests your dependencies against the free version of pyup.io. It’s nice, and while I’m not sure how better it could be but it’s still better than nothing and pointed

Correct, although I’m happy to be proven wrong. I don’t see any way this could be possible - in order to create a malicious pickle object you’d have to have your untrusted input somehow “break outside” of its string container before it even

Which is really unfortunate because the P2P system was reliable provided your network was reliable. The “new and improved” system just randomly fails for me and I’ve stopped using Skype as a result. The shit clients they started releasing (

How is a Facebook or LinkedIn account considered “verification” when spammers routinely use thousands of fake accounts to astroturf fraudulent pages & ads? Surely this means any malicious actor targeting your platform can do the same.

He sounds like he’s gone completely insane. If anyone is going to go after him, they’re going to go after his real cash and not some worthless cryptocurrencies.

Don’t have the time to watch it now, could anyone quickly summarise in text form? Thanks!

MMS is useless anyway so I see that as a non-issue, if anything it removes useless complexity. Social networks, email and WhatsApp/Telegram replaced MMS long ago, and as a bonus they don’t re-compress your images to make them look even

The fact they had an actual product they were proud of? Clearly that’s considered unacceptable by Twitter’s standards.

Do you actually need to bark at passers-by, or do you think you need just because every other dog is doing it? Replacing Twitter is simple. Have a proper support channel (Intercom, etc) so your customers don’t need Twitter to get support

Goodwill works for good companies proud of what they do. Companies like Twitter whose core business is to shit on their users and customers don’t care about goodwill.

I hope this ends up litigated. The idiots at Twitter need to understand what accountability is about.

SIP (session initiation protocol). It’s superior to the PSTN in every way, and problems like spam can be solved just like we did with emails (not to mention, there’s plenty of spam on the PSTN too).

Depends what those "influencers" are about. A lot of successful Youtube influencers actually show off something else besides their face and for those the mandatory vertical video wouldn't cut it.

by Rjevski 8y ago
Vertical video is awful because it doesn't capture any of the surroundings of the subject, and instead wastes those pixels it on filming what's above & below the subject (which 99% of the time is irrelevant).

Just wondering, if you've got 2,55 billion laying around, would you use it to solve a real-world problem or invest it, or will you burn it in some sketchy, potentially-illegal cryptocurrency bullshit with no real-world purpose?

Some products just aren’t worth paying for. I might use a webpage that displays me the current year as a progress bar? Would I pay for it? No. Your best bet is to just move on and market your new product (with actual value worth paying fo

Don’t pay the invoice until they either fix it or let it go (they can’t go to court as you’re in the right from a legal point of view). That’s what I always do with shitty utility providers - it’s funny how the “computer says no” excuse sud

Most likely it’s an issue with contrast and overall darker skin colour. Can be solved by illuminating the face with IR though, which should work across all ethnicities.

They really should’ve used some end to end encryption to protect themselves against DMCA bullshit. As it stands they will be abused for copyright infringement and the rights holders will not only ask for the files to be taken down, but for

If you’re letting GRUB handle the disk decryption then that’s part of your problem. The key derivation function in GRUB is much slower than in Linux. If possible, switch to an unencrypted boot partition (and rely on Secure Boot to ensure in

There might be cases where a criminal would want to call 911 on a victim (possibly collateral damage of their crime). Not saying this happens, but the only way it could happen is if the guy calling has some guarantee of not being identifi

Presumably it would be grounds for legal trouble once/if they realize. Open source contributions might work though. Do them under an fake name/alias (so they can't correlate with the hours you're supposed to be working),
