Absolutely. My experience with Georgia was that everyone was lovely and friendly my entire life. I didn't love the politics but I could see that people were for the most part coming from a good place in their beliefs on the matter. The

She talks a very big talk there about cracking down on "the dark web" but reading between the lines it seems like they really only are implementing more officers to help with local victims of fraud. The non local officers might be

It's very confusing honestly. If I wanted to apply for a job right now I've got 1 year professional iOS development experience and 2 years Android... So I don't really feel like a senior Android developer at all but junior po

I moved away from the south because: 1. Few job prospects 2. Terrible transit 3. Disagreeable politics 4. Hot In that order. I moved to Seattle (which didn't really fix #2) and much preferred it. Born and raised in Atlanta but no desir

"It's not obvious to me that ISPs would bother" The issue is mainly that ISPs are also, by and large, the Cable Companies. Cable is dying. It's dying quickly. Cable companies are seeing dwindling revenue streams from the

Because it's the one we built all our cities in? It seems like an obvious answer: everything currently is built around current water levels +/- a meter or two. 10m extra of water does really bad things to a lot of costal cities. 1

Infinite scroll has been a thing for a while in RES. The removal of the quick link bar is an egregious sin though.

Decentralized reddit using open protocols with each instance being a subreddit is going to be the next big step in decentralization. It's about uniting forums without forums giving up their power.

I'm reading Sci-fi stories rather than something drier or that needs more digesting, so I understand this point of view. I didn't find it that hard to listen to Dune compared to listening to, say, Peter F. Hamilton's works. F

I highly recommend audio books. I tallied it up and last year I read 58 books averaging 1.8 hours of reading a day. It's great!

IIRC some of their cloud storage is Google Cloud as well. They're probably pushing into more vertical control there. Good guess.

Equifax Argentina (or was it all south America?) was compromised from the admin password "password". People are incredibly oblivious to how easy they are to break and how tempting a target they are.

The point is anything sent to Facebook must be assumed logged until proven otherwise. That's a sad state of affairs.

Seattle is #3 in homelessness in the USA and has more homeless per capita than one of the other two (LA I think?). The tent cities get large and only get broken up when deaths of women and children start occurring. See The Jungle: https:&#

My new favorite mushrooms are ennoki. Local Asian food store has them insanely cheap and they're amazing pan fried with some garlic, bok choy and pepper.

It's not a 0 sum game so much as an equilibrium expression. They're just putting their thumb on one side of the scale. Where the extra evaporation comes from and how it affects global climates is too tricky to predict but that

Yes but if you post pictures of yourself holding up signs at a KKK rally then a company hiring you is a PR liability for them if the could've checked and didn't.

I definitely had success with soundhound. No Rain by Blind Melon was stuck in my head but I couldn't remember the band. Hummed the riff and had it in no time.

Except you're exactly wrong in that Facebook has been directly selling data while Google has not. Cambridge Analytica was crunching specific user data, not just buying aggregate targeted ads. That's what this whole uproar is about

Look Usenet is nice and all but it's not a forum system and it's definitely not a reddit substitute. It is decentralized though, which is great.

It does not. It's essentially preventing them from getting granular or "fine" location. They can still get basic telemetry as I recall.

Sure while "Voat" is an alternative they're both centralized. I'm meaning decentralized reddit. Servers as subreddits, federated multi-reddits, only registered server accounts can vote on certain pieces, server by server
