As awesome as the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine is, it is still under central control. Worse, as they (reasonably) abide to robots.txt rules, the BBC could easily block access to pages they removed at their end in the archive as w

Who says that it is his laptop? The "article" does not really add anything for the HN audience. So to save you a click, here is the image: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/ClfR1BDUsAEMBm2.jpg:orig

As bank transfer takes a lot of time to "process", money exchanging in Europe is really annoying. Paypal made and makes it fast. I don't like them, but I don't know anything better sadly.

That's correct. One could think of it as a blog post.

I simply use keepassx with the database being synced between all my devices (Linux, Windows, Android) via Syncthing. I also have a scrambled printout in my bank safe (30€/year) that I update every couple of months.

How does it prove any value?

I would not consider fraud schemes valuable.

Still nothing to do with gender.

No money is going to evaporate. First of all, the value just changes hands and second of all, there is no money involved, just toy bits.

Free software and patent-free or whatever some lawyers call "open"?

FYI, their patent is probably bogus: http://patents.stackexchange.com/questions/13629/i-had-inven...

Unless they went back and manually deleted words after their second round of hype last year, they are still in. Their wikipedia page surely has been largely written by them themselves.

Carefully vetted? I don't have the time right now but there are countless weird, insulting, offensive phrases possible with this proprietary abomination.

Some very niche ones that the list might ruin my privacy, they are all in my local language.

Nope. I listen to about 15 podcasts regularly. They are all made by people in their free time as loving hobbyists. "Content" gets made regardless if there is money exchanged for annoying/misleading your audience.

As far as I understand it there was no decision made by Nick except when the organisers intervened. The lightning talks always were chaotic. Nick wrote that the more risky presenters usually did not show anyways, at least that's how I

As a counter anecdote: I don't know those people, I "know" Nick and trust him so his story is much more credible than "random twitter accounts spouting filth" to me. Hell, the puellavulnerata account rings too many

Nick was one of my favourite people at any hacker meeting I've been at. His positivity and selfless support have been a huge inspiration to me. It pains me to read this, people can suffer in silence so much and you never know until the

Oh, I too thought those would be workarounds but they are not. The first two say: "This means it will only reflow ONE THING AT A TIME. If the page has 50 paragraphs, you will have to tap once on all 50 to reflow the whole thing."

Thanks! One less add-on, one more list for me. :)

Give a system-wide ad-blocker (AdAway) and Opera Mobile a try. You can zoom in and it will reflow the text to make it nicely readable. I wish I could switch to Firefox but the lack of reflow is an incredibly weird anti-feature.

Well, at least in Germany it is blocked: Unfortunately, this video is not available in your country because it could contain music from UMG, for which we could not agree on conditions of use with GEMA.
