Had this too the other day. I am 100% certain that the ban is just a ploy to force you to give them more personal data. In my case it was a phone number, next up maybe a selfie.

This is why Reddit is banned in Indonesia; because there's a bit of porn. Now laypeople just use Twitter instead...

I really loved their series Hamilton's Pharmacopoeia. In-depth, raw drug making and taking by a serious (though odd) expert. A shame they geofenced the shit out of it, forcing me to pirate it.

Care to share the brand/model of those cameras? Thanks!

If you ask me, it's when you start talking with the people in the area you're staying in. It's very freeing to have a fresh start in a new place.

The privacy argument has helped move some of my friends over to Signal, but yeah, we'll be putting up with multiple messaging apps for some time longer.

I have a pet theory that everything Apple produces is deliberately made slightly unusual for the purpose of (a) vendor lock-in and (b) enhancing the feeling in their cult that they are above non-Apple users because Apple products do things

Don't worry so much about it. Really. Stop worrying. Allow it to just be and surround you as a fact of life.

If you're forced to work in the terminal, vim's great. But to get it to do something approximating an IDE, is it worth the time to tweak configs/plugins and memorize hotkeys, rather than just using a _real_ IDE? Besides that,

Not seeing the anti-trans/gay angle here at all. He's doing the kid a favour, teaching him that jokes shouldn't be repeated if he wants to be a good entertainer.

That's funny, I don't experience it like that at all. Hacking and exploring is fun, and I did a lot of it when I was younger, but if I'm trying to get things done - which is what I'm doing 95% of the time, be it for work

That's got to have cost a heck of a lot of time though, no? I've tried beancount myself - had to conclude it was not worth spending that many billable hours tinkering with the ledger.

Honestly I never understood the appeal. A social network that forces you to wedge your content in images and short videos, while on Facebook you could share YouTube videos, music, interesting links, write-ups, you name it. How can anyone in

Pointless article. TL;DR: Madoff confessed, SBF didn't. Investigation takes time.

They've probably fired so many people that they wouldn't even know _how_ to run A/B tests even if they wanted to.

Fully agree. I unfortunately never had the balls to fight back, but every time I think back about it, I wish I'd just fucking punched someone. Even now, 20 years after the fact.

Netflix is the worst at this. Nearly every time I use it, the UI will piss me right off.

They probably employ large teams of both good and bad UX designers, constantly deploying and A/B testing UI changes. If the A/B test says the change wins, it stays. Sites like Booking.com do this to the umpteenth degree.

Yes, the crypto world is a hornet's nest, but the non-crypto world is ruled by bankers with an ever-increasing thirst for control over our lives. (Read up about the Fed's new CBDC plans) As far as I'm aware, Monero and cash a

At least from where I'm looking, working mostly with Europeans, Skype is still pretty popular. Sometimes replaced by Google Meet for meetings with transient acquaintances. Skype's not as buttery smooth as Telegram, but it sure is
