I got my eBay account "permanently suspended" the other day. I was traveling for Thanksgiving and they had a $10 off $10 promo if you login to the app for the first time. I used the app from the Airport wifi to purchase two books

No paywall, but there's a page-blocking T&C modal that cannot be dismissed unless you "Accept" the terms. The archive link doesn't force you to accept.

Correct. ImageShack was the most widely used host on reddit and had recently disabled hotlinking (after nearly a year of ad bloat on their main site) so user MrGrim on reddit created Imgur and announced it on Reddit 12 years ago: https:&#x

Sadly the goal of news networks is not to convey information properly, it's to outrage or surprise you, and generate ad traffic. The more facetious a headline, the more $$$ it makes the news network from clicks. Because of this, consid

Likewise, what's the "benefit" of spreading the cables out by a few kilometers when space allows? If you zoom in you can see all the cables scrunched through the canal, but on more than one occasion they are fanned out to spr

For those unfamiliar with this product (such as I), here is a brief paraphrased history from Wikipedia: In 2007 openDesktop.org was established as an umbrella page for content from the sites such as Xfce-Look.org, GNOME-Look.org or Linux-A

To save a few clicks, Elmhurst is a suburb of Chicago, IL. Do people lug their vintage machines to the event, or is it more of a software-based meetup?

I'm way more impressed by some of those ASCII charts than I am of the SVG conversion. The one that looks like a temperature scale from 2011-2016 is super cool.

This software reminds me of AudioGL - what could have been groundbreaking audio generation software that was being developed in 2010 or so. https://youtu.be/bCC9uHHAEuA I never found out if the developer had a sudden death

I don't think there is. NodeMailer kind of gets close by letting you request Delivery Status Notifications, but doesn't have webhooks or handle them for you: https://nodemailer.com/smtp/dsn/ The closest

I think this is the best option, at least for now. Shove all of these streamers into one category so they are now compete against each other. Previously, you could choose any game or category and scroll down until you inevitably found a str

Trader joes is the best example of homogenous because they sell mostly their own brand cross-country, so local stock doesn't dictate what is available on the shelf. The prices remain static across most of their stores as well (for most

Oh no, our multi-million dollar ad campaigns funded by taxpayers didn't hit the mark? Let's keep throwing millions and millions of their dollars into the fire until they do what we want!

This page explains it a bit more, and gives a demo: https://docs.withorbit.com/ It looks like a flash card widget that you can embed in your blog. Honestly I have no idea what the context is for needing this, perhaps the au

Another app that does the same thing is SkySend: https://skysend.hns.siasky.net However the difference I am seeing with SkyTransfer -- it operates more like Dropbox/GDrive; your uploaded files are displayed on a shareable d

A wild guess is 3:1 (3 working 0-day exploits in existence for every 1 found with exercises like this). My reasoning is because every time there is a very high-priced bounty on an exploit, it seems to get discovered and pay out. So if gover

That's the point of the troll. Wasting either their braincells -or- their time/money. Sounds like a successful troll to me.

I played Comanche on a Sony VAIO display laptop at Circuit City for hours when I was young (my dad worked there). The speed and detail was indeed mind blowing back then, thanks for your excellent writeup and examples on how it worked!

And that's without a case! I can't even imagine what a case would start to look like for this thing. It would be its own feat of engineering... Then again, if you're always holding it with two hands, who needs a case, right?

A lot of people here would like this level of detail, actually. But general apps are intended for the general population, which is why big orgs go for the minimum watered down version. It's more work and overhead if they confuse their
