Yes, exactly. Also, the other problem is that the sites rolled into these teens' definition of "the internet" is probably no greater than about 10-12 websites, most (if not all) being social media - Facebook, Instragram, Twi

The teens are bored because 1) they are misusing the technology/resource that is the internet and 2) they never learned how to entertain themselves, probably because of the internet. I'm a Millennial and had several friends compla

Why is it a bad thing? What is the alternative? To have every single person in the world work for themselves? That's really the only other alternative besides not allowing businesses to retain any earnings for growth and expansion.

That's how every single profitable business operates. It's not a bad thing, it's a requirement. If a business pays you exactly the value you bring to them, then they do not earn anything from employing you, and have no prof

Make sure you screenshot everything and save all communications. Try putting delivery and read receipts on all emails so they can't claim they didn't receive/read them. Make any calls to anyone whose number you have. If this

I don't know enough about how different profiles operate to say with any certainty, unfortunately. So it's possible there is no benefit. However, for mobile there does appear to be at least one benefit. When I recently checked

I second this. uMatrix is my go-to add-on to prevent the vast majority of connections I do not want. However, I pretty much always use my browser in privacy mode no matter what (for several reasons), so the bootstrapping process never end

Yes, that's precisely why you should never, ever, ever talk to the cops: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-7o9xYp7eE I love that video. That first speaker really spells everything out in a concise and easily comprehen

What I meant is that the OP would have plead not guilty and then had their lawyer file the request as part of discovery to see if any dashcam or bodycam footage was available. Believe me, I have no expectation that they would review this n

That's truly unfortunate. But it doesn't surprise me one bit. This is how they operate. They love trumping up charges any way they can ("stop resisting!") because the more "serious" crime they stop they bett

Beat me to it. Was just about to write the same exact thing. If we common peasants lie on the stand they have no problem calling it what it is. If one of the anointed does it, it's called "testilying" or, my personal favor

"But if the merchant could accept oil certificates and convert it to an alternative certificate at checkout, any in-demand certificate could be money." This is true and, in fact, used to be the case in the US with how the bankin

Why does it bother you? Do you equate it with some sort subset of McCarthyism - i.e. turning the government loose on your neighbor, etc.? To me, it's more of a "see something, say something" deal. But the issue with that i

I'm going to take the other side on that prediction of a country issuing it's own digital currency. I think it is conceivable that governments find some use for the technology, no doubt, but I do not under any circumstance see an

Here's a different video with a more in depth look at the injection test. Also, it was "dead bacteria", not a virus, as I previously stated. Nonetheless, even dead bacteria should make people feverish and vomit, as explaine

Would you mind putting your contact email in your profile? The other commenter intersted in this (manglav) already has this in their profile. I need a way to contact you. FYI - this should be done very shortly. I ran the script last ni

Thanks for this. I've been wondering how to better help my legs and general body health. I go to the gym regularly and I'm in pretty good shape, but I know there is some ongoing issue with my legs related to sitting all day.
