Well depending on how you define both sides. They are buying the regulation for themselves and against the people and yes this is very common and the people hate it.

The idea is that they do that if you manipulate them into printing a lie. Think Weapons of Mass Destruction here. Or "Putin is paying bounties to kill Americans in Afghanistan." Something that is clearly both false and fabricated

At what point is it no longer tenable to say it was an honest mistake? What did the source have to gain from leaking the story? How do you avoid being used by some other source to plant a false story in the future? How do you avoid this sou

I have doubts about whether a source who has supplied misinformation should continue to be given anonymity. Is this unfashionable? Seems that maybe should a case arise where a government official lies in a way that is consistent with gettin

"I don't understand this, are you saying x..?" vs "what" Spot the difference in terms of being confusing. But he does understand now without assistance so we're all good, right?

You didn't understand and now you do. I guess those who upvoted the original comment also did? It's taken a back and fourth of 5 comments to establish that clearly. BTW I'm not sure using a mental illness as a superfluous pej

Sorry, what is your point? What are you trying to contribute?

Even just the mere mention of the involvement of a network attched cpu seems to be able to cause the failure of all forms of critical reasoning in many people. See above.

I've used the Orange Pi 2 Zero as a reasonable replacement. Still overpriced at about USD $35 shipped on Aliexpress. The price jump is pretty annoying.

SBF has used at least one cpu attached to a network on the critical path of his actions. Will this be enough to cause people to be stupid enough to let his powerful and connected family and friends get him off light? People in positions of

The really nasty side of advertising is the collateral damage of mental health issues, eg death by the torture of annorexia is just one. I find it's usually pretty easy to get some kind of agreement on that even if we agree we are not

mythtv is still pretty great fwiw. Auto flagging ads is pretty good, but even don't bother, just using kodi as a front end with the plugin and skipping forward 3 minutes when an ad comes on does most of the job. (sometimes you do anoth

No problem for you so no problem. Now remove the "cpu on a network" being involved and see if you can think it through. You've never been murdered so there's no need for laws and regs. Equivalent with no cpu on a network

I have only ever used paypal to pay for things with a credit card. I was tricked into having the account at all by a fraudlent and misleading UI built by ebay and that's the only reason I had it in the first place. I did use it to pay

Siri is OS and fine to be in the OS. The vendor of that OS should not also have services like selling music brokered by preferential treatment by the OS. You sell the hardware and the system software Or you sell the apps Not both.
