What's your point in derailing and making wrong statements? Cream cheese goes well inside (not on top) of sushi, which is backed by it's popularity outside of Japan. Which was a reply to GP saying cheese doesn't "go&quot

Interesting. Have been in Italy a bunch of times as it's fairly close from Bavaria, but didn't know that!

Yea, I thought that too. I imagine either the "or warlike" part or additional text that was not quoted narrows it down to state actors or state-like actors (e.g. terror groups like ISIS or al-Qaida). Would still be a very broad de

I'm living in Japan for the last four months. I'm very well aware that the inside-out maki we got in the West are not Japanese. Sashimi is not at all the typical meal, in fact it's actually not even sushi. You won't find

I'm not sure about your definition of often. I have not seen a Japanese eating cheese or even stopping at the small cheese collection in my local supermarket in the last four months I've been here. I think price above value is a s

Isn't that probably a French tradition in Quebec, considering it's a French speaking province?

I'm aware that this kind of sushi roll isn't traditionally Japanese. But GP was talking about which Japanese food might go well with cheese. Sushi with cream cheese is a battle tested example from the west.

Sushi goes very well with cream cheese added as part of the filling, e.g. Philadelphia roll. Pork Donburi with grated cheese on top, maybe Gauda, would be a great fit. Also possible for a Yakiniku bento. You could also use a cheese dip for

That's probably only France, where cheese after meals is common. While it's frequently used as a topping in Italian cousine, it's nearly exclusively eaten on top of slices of (dark) bread as a standalone dish in German cous

That's actually a software problem and not a hardware one. But it's also one of the main reasons I bought a 1080p laptop instead of 4k one.

The GP was talking about a delivery company budgeting for tickets. All the answers to the parent miss the point. The discussion is on a large scale with a significant amount of tickets. If it's a hundred tickets for 1,000 drivers a yea

The solution is the company just pays the ticket. End of story.

No, merely having payment information is not giving consent, but you signing up for a subscription service was giving consent to a recurring subscription. That's a totally different situation.

by ascar 8y ago
Stopping payment is not the same as canceling a contract. You are basically acting on the premise that it's not worth going after you. That might even be true in all cases, but it's still disingenuous and probably unlawful.

by ascar 8y ago
Sure. They could also let you easily cancel online. But they don't want to. And if you refuse to pay for a subscription contract you entered, but didn't cancel, you owe them.
714.
by ascar 8y ago
Why do you think that? You entered a legally binding contract with an obligation to pay. You refuse to pay without canceling the contract. Why should the fact that it's a recurring payment change anything here?

Protecting completed educational certificates for their users free of cost seems reasonable. It's not like they force you to keep paying, they are just not easily deleting your educational history on their platform.

A conversion rate of 0.01% on 700 million addresses and a ~$1000 demand makes you 70million dollar. That's a lot of money for just sending 700 million emails.

It's an optimization strategy for them between actually getting paid and not getting caught. Buying bitcoin is actually pretty easy and they help you figure it out in the email as I already commented here https://news.ycombi
