I did reply to your actual statements. I never claimed you defended pedos. Where did I do that exactly? I was stating that feeling betrayed by this change makes no sense at all. I cannot fathom how one can possibly feel betrayed by such a c

It’s grade A victim blaming.

SA is in favor of SOPA and PIPA? Huh?

by ugh 15y ago
For fucks sake. Is that really so hard to understand? Pedos can’t trade their images anymore (whether legal or not). That’s the extent of the limitation. How the fuck is that supposed to turn Reddit into something radically different? It’s

Shit Reddit Says is pretty awesome and definitely on the right side of history. It’s not hard, it’s pretty simple.

Do you really believe those bullshit conspiracy theories? Yeah, right. Some goon posted CP on Reddit, causing outrage among some Reddit users but also flaming (and highly upvoted) defenses of said CP – presumably all by goons. There were nu

What the hell?! Is it really so hard to believe that some people honestly think that Reddit should have no Subreddits explicitly catering to pedophiles? Yes, I’m for Reddit taking away the freedom of pedophiles to share photos on Reddit, ev

Oh, I love censorship by private organizations†. Censorship is what makes my favorite news website great. Can you imagine what a mess it would be if every damn journalist could write what they wanted? Censors (commonly also called editors)

It’s “Congress shall make no law”, not “Reddit shall make no rule”.

But it is the right thing to do. It obviously is. Why do you think it isn’t?

On the other hand: What took ’em so long? Jailbait was shut down, what now? A few months ago? The admins must have been aware that the exact same crap was happening in copycat subreddits all over Reddit soon after Jailbait was shut down. Wh

Not following the spec? Using prefixes is following the spec. That’s how it’s supposed to work.
193.
by ugh 15y ago
The alternative – no prefixes – is even more horrible. That would be chaos and disaster. Webkit’s might is the problem here. Dropping prefixes without having some alternative solution in place is definitely not the solution. That’s why it’s

Pfffff. You are hilarious! Really, you are. Truly funny.

Yeah, that would have been swell had Apple worked with all their might to bring DRM to Safari! /s What is wrong with you?! You are talking about the tiny slice of all possible stuff that pretends it needs fucking DRM. What. The. Hell.

Huh? Why are you so sure that people don't use the iOS browser? I use an RSS reader and the Twitter app (both pf which I also use on my PC). The rest (and majority of my time) on iOS devices I spend in a browser and I love it. The web exper

Yes, and it sucked. I have been quite happy with the browser that comes with ICS, so I would say there's parity now. But nice job ignoring the actual point I was making.

by ugh 15y ago
Kind of hard to believe, given that iOS was and still is the only mobile OS with a browser that does not suck. Even Android has only been catching up. iOS and Android have been an unambiguous blessing for the open web on mobile devices. I d

Didn't Adobe already say that they will no longer develop Flash for mobile devices – so isn't this kind of self-evident?

I don’t see that. Racism (oh the racism), misogyny, homophobia (etc.) are everywhere on Reddit. It’s full of shit. The content sucks. My pet theory is that a lack of moderation is responsible for that. Ask Science has excellent moderators a

Where do you find those people? I don’t know any of those.

This is a gender thing. It is, however, only a gender thing and has nothing to do specifically with Apple. Women are treated markedly different than men. It’s quite disgusting, really.

It is offending and sexist, though.

by ugh 15y ago
Huh. I thought when Gruber pointed out the mistake he was criticizing the sexism (of incorrectly calling a woman on a Mac expo a “booth babe”). That people apparently responded to this sexism with more sexism of their own is quite disgustin

But you have to explain why it’s not appropriate. You have to give reasons, you know.

It’s their right to block. It’s my right to protest. Simple as that. Just because someone has a right to do something doesn’t mean you can’t criticize her or him for doing it. (This mistake is made so often. Frequently after someone is crit

I think it’s about time to start Shit HN Says. Did you really just say that the distribution and ownership of child porn should be legal? I think you just did. I refuse to argue vile shit like that but I have to tell you that it is indeed v

That's the principle, but not how it really works. As you said, it's only an analogy, but one that comes close to sounding like the real thing and is as such potentially confusing. Audio codecs don't try to find functions that describe wave

I prefer a mobile data plan that’s throttled after a certain bandwidth use to paying overage fees. What I don’t like is marketing that as “unlimited”. (I think all carriers in Germany only have plans like that. Some market them as unlimited

So substitute ice cream with hammers, axes, screwdrivers, pens, whatever. I don't see the point.
