What gets under my skin is the perception that they have this "right to be seen". Where 'being seen' means robbing me of my attention for a moment to try to sell me something I likely don't want, and every company a

I still get asked to sign in when I view that link, but that's besides the point: I wish paywall'd articles weren't accepted here. Maybe there is a place for paywalls in this world, I just don't think we should be postin

Is there any precedent for arbitration clauses being thrown out? I didn't think there was (in fact, quite the opposite), and that that's why they've become so common in everyone's EULA. If it had already been shown to be

I think if you don't know what's normal yet, set the bar. What I mean is, when you're trying to contribute, how do your interactions with that project and the developer(s) make you feel? At the end of the day, if you're

I trust my OS to suggest sane defaults, but if I can't override them that's a bug IMO.

I think this is a bit of a non issue. Wouldn't a bad community or developer become evident when you started looking around at how to help and contribute to the project? Just recently I decided I was bored with my routine at home and wa

And remember to remove the CNNIC Root CA from your certificate store unless you know you need it.

Like companies outlawing growing your own garlic and onions because someone somewhere found that you can make a moderately effective mace with those ingredients, or because they can be abused (war on drugs), or because terrorists. You might

Very nice. Did you consider writing it as a webapp instead of an iOS app so that it has greater reach?

Or maybe by blocking it during the timeframe they did, they have accomplished their mission and there was no further need for blocking. I sincerely doubt github is at all important to China.

I haven't heard of an extension that does that either, but I'm not sure that would scale well for busy long-running Multi User Chats. But the benefit of XMPP is that a new extension can be proposed that does this if enough people

Can you go into detail about what features were lacking? For what it's worth, a lot comes down to what features the server admin has activated. I've heard many complaints about XMPP but this is the first I've heard someone me

This. If you won't drop the other networks there's no need for them to join your server, your still on the networks they're already using. Only you can change that.

My concern with that is that we could end up with a situation where the curriculum or textbook content is decided by the uneducated masses. Eg what happens if creationists figure out that all they have to do is gang up on contributing to th

One caveat with using ping is that ISPs can very easily prioritize that traffic, so you could see results from ping that you might not see in your application.

Is anyone else frustrated after trying to load this page on a mobile device? I zoom in to read the text and when I try to slide the screen over, it interprets that as me wanting to go to the next page. No, I wanted to read the text on THIS

You don't check for every record in your database, you create a regex (or multiple regexes) which matches the patterns you don't want leaked. This is how I've seen Data Loss Prevention done in the Sophos UTM. Yes, if even the

Stuff like that bugs me too, and is one of the reasons I have no compunction about pirating content. VLC supports a dynamic range audio compressor, meaning you can configure it to make the quiet parts loud, and the loud parts quiet. If they

I would feel a lot better about using email transfers if my bank had better security than my bloody smartphone, but as it stands my pin can't be any more complex than the pin to my smartphone. Canadian banking security is embarrassing,

One of the benefits of running your own email server: You can block all LinkedIn spam at the gateway. All LinkedIn email is banned at my gateway. As is any vendor who considers me purchasing from them to be an agreement whereby they can sen

You can't control what others say about you, but you can control who your friends are. I don't tolerate friends who do not respect my privacy.

Does anyone know how to manually send these complaints to Google? Eg if you run your own mailserver and some Gmail account is spamming you? Thank you for the link to the wikipage, I didn't know about FBL. It's disappointing that t

At this point, I'm convinced LinkedIn is literally paying Google to whitelist their spam. I have yet to find a single person who actually appreciates the emails LinkedIn sends them. That includes business people who got their job throu

I'm curious how that story played out. Was the external party eventually forced to pay the bill for hosting their service during the time it was being disputed since you couldn't just turn it off?

You know those shows are 100% PR right? Do you really think they would be invited back if they showed unedited footage? I would bet money that the agencies involved get the final say on whether an episode airs or not. I can't stand tho

Just factory reset your phone before going through, and restore it after you've completed your TSA adventure. Though, do NOT brag about your tactic to them or they will likely try to force you to restore it on the spot.

I predict they will claim to be hunting for child pornography and similar contraband. Despite the argument being silly, as pointed out by yourself.

No, of course not. But choosing to smoke a joint is a victimless crime, as is choosing to abuse cocaine or any other substance. Most of the problems with these substances are caused by the fact that they are illegal and are forced into blac
