No copyright holders being paid is theft. Authors write and should be paid for their efforts. This is glorified and legalized privacy.

Putting on my conspiracy hat, blocking the global web from within Russia would also make it easier to have huge sweeping "purges" toward targeted groups, without Western interference.

Also another great example about why user and accessibility testing are very very important. It was downright ignored and when pressed the Admins admitted it. Leave your beliefs at the door and fucking watch how the user interacts with your

It’s common when you have cornea issues and/or glaucoma or need more than basic laser eye surgery. The shaky hands? When someone had a needle in your eye, that needle can move your eye in even the steadiest of hands. My favorite was no

Editing one post is bad, but also consider that they've become a massive safe harbor for the alt-right. Reddit admins routinely dismiss threats, quick to hide accounts from people like Elliott Rodgers, etc. They edited a the_donald pos

I have a strong aversion to needles but I’ve been a type 1 diabetic for many years. I use an older Medtronic pump and want to move to a CGM soon My checks take about 5-10 seconds but I can see where after a while it can make you hesitant.

Well we know for s fact that Besos is wealthy. We’re not doubtful of that. We are just doubtful of claims of someone who says they’re rich and generally lies to the public, maybe a Trump tax return would help to make him more believable.

The PhD on my team got through in less than 7. The immigrants crossing the southern border are still going through the same process, don't know why someone wanting a better life should cause high-skilled workers much worry.

This is particularly why I leave my good MacBook at home and depend on a decent Chromebook and a throwaway Gmail acct. I can use Citrix or an Amazon Workspace if I need something more secure. If I lose it or if it’s stolen, I’m out $200-400

No. I tried it and it was no different than working in an open office. So I either work from home or I work in a space I rent with three fellow consultants. $500 with all utils in a walkable city and decent food nearby. Why would I want to

I wouldn't classify someone who has had six bankruptcies as a "winner". One, maybe two I can understand. But six, that's just poor business management and a great example as to why we're heading into a Trump-powered
