Regardless of legality, you probably can get your friends not to post pictures of you. But it's a hassle.

Yes, it is substantially different. I guess what I thought of was that if the UBI were to be implemented while not being widely (as in by well over 50% of the voters) accepted, say by a far-left political party, barely winning elections, it

Well, if a basic income were to be introduced at the state level, that still has no guarantee of continuing for any period of time.

Unless, as I did, you mess with the JS a bit. I don't know if stripe allows you to set a minimum on their side, so perhaps there isn't anything you can do to prevent that. Anyway, enjoy my 1 cent :)

I've paid a cent, and it threw an error in my face, and didn't show up :(

How is that racist?

Attempts at that have been made, at least in poland. The "piano" system gives access to a whole bunch of local news publications, forbes, and a major national newspaper or two. It costs ~4.5 USD a month, so ~2-3 hours of an entry

Which... they historically are not that unlikely to do.

Seriously. Especially now that VS is free-ish, this could be done much more easily (probably).

Not surprising, given they are for photoshop.

Interesting, but they should make it more clear how does it work legally - i.e. are there guarantees built in that the repo owner won't discard the pull request, and then use the code anyway? Especially on open-source projects. Is this

Bitcoin also has fees. Also delays. Also wildly fluctuating price. Something like flattr seems like a much better idea.

He is saying there are none.

That's a terrible idea. It may seem nice to a person with a lot of disposable income, who can afford for both people in the family to take have a break from their careers, but forcing that on people who are in poor financial condition

Which is like drm on steroids. And kind of exactly what people were warning drm would lead to - you don't own any music. But damn it's cheap and convenient.

Awesome, thanks!

You are not being tested, you are the judge. now, if all the judges do no better than chance, the system has passed. I got 8/10, and knowing the deepart pictures from before, I was pretty confident in some of the judgments, so I don&#x

That seems like exactly the use case for bitcoin. It shouldn't have much impact on the people who actually strongly and immediately need a VPN - they were probably not using paypal anyway. But it's still a shame they are doing tha

Or, you can make it run on old hardware, and new underpowered hardware like netbooks, Raspberry Pi, and phones.

Poland - 800 Videos. USA - 6000. And yet it's more expensive here. And that's without adjusting for typical income. I was excited when they launched, but it looks like I'm not going beyond the trial. And yet services like Spo

This is a really important point to make. The government may be democratically elected, but that doesn't mean that much, because of how the political system works. When people have the choice directly, they don't vote for the gove

It's not giving up any say, just most of it - after all, there is some government process to be an approved tax-break eligible charity, no? [not familiar with US law on this]

De-anonymisation attacks may be non-trivial, but does TOR have any real resiliency to DDoSes?

Funny, HN already does 3... Maybe not a bad idea after all.

Did you see the updated version with the fallback licences? seems very fair to me.

Aren't bruteforces of .onion plausible in the mid-future by powerful actors?
