Non-native speakers will either first construct sentences in their native tongue or be heavily influenced by native idioms. Just because you speak another language does not mean you assimilate the culture. The word "please" is eas

I have had the same problems with IPv6 and Gmail. As I also admin G.Suite I have access to their paid support. I did your exact follow up - politely and persistent!! It was a dead-end. They had no idea - and worse - no escalation path to th

In my experience live.com was an easy fix. But gmail was not. Even as a business user with support. Gmail rejects me as an ugly spammer at the gate when using IPv6 but not when using IPv4. My IP addresses are not listed in any public blackl

I am running FreeBSD on their VServer (and dedicated) too. Anyone know if the rescue system is available on the cloud offering as well? (So alternate OS can be installed) And do the "cloud" have the same painful setup with the gat

Take it like that if you will. There is a distinction between considering something dishonest and flat out lies. You do however not indicate any interest in discussing the finer points. This is already too far into the realm of flame wars.

You hit the point accurately. But misses why the discrimination is both warranted and needed. We do not trust those either. With the recent progress in Firefox they had a really good position to win users back. A key driver would be getting

No abuse here. I honestly think you are missing the point of what is upsetting people. Nothing in your full quote makes it any more palatable. No matter how nice your intentions are. No matter how transparent you are. No matter how sincere

Miss World 2000 has "Too many secrets"... Love those references. If you have not seen it yet go watch Sneakers (1992). I am getting old - I remember when it was fresh :-)

Pennies saved on education. Cutting out 6 months of basic training. We live in a world managed by spreadsheets. Common sense is not in vogue.

Because I would need to detect the fraud first. And fraudsters tend to be clever! I hardly ever use cash anymore so my bank statements have a lot of action going on. How closely do you monitor those?

That only makes it slightly better. It is still stored at payment provider. Hopefully they are better at safeguarding my data. But if I only supplied a token. with a value I determined I would not have to worry.

Yes - exactly. And with a specified amount so I am safeguarded from anu surprises. I have never seen a service like that - so (I think) it is mainly on your side of the pond.

I have always hated the thought that retailers stored my credit card information. Seems to be very common with US based shops. If this gets any traction I will need to fight even harder to opt out. I yearn for the day I can have one off tra

Cloudflare has an absolute stellar interface for handling DNS. I have used many paid services as well but they all lag hugely behind Cloudflare in terms of usability. Really good to see them stay on top of their game. A few of the other big

Local ISPs still (stupidly) claim that there is no demand for IPv6 so I will surely miss them. I really appreciate the stable service they have provided over the years.

This is the crux of the matter. Surprised how few of the comments which addresses this. Just look at how many JS frameworks which have a "router" component. So rather than navigating documents you end up faking that we navigate do
