Um no? For more colour correction, you can use the vectorscope to target the universal skin tone line which fixes contrast for all skin tones.

How does this prevent shill reviews?

Not sure what your point is because that’s happened to people and they have no recourse.

He is a “free” user, what duty does Facebook owe him?

This would have been fun to put onto production machines. We had a botnet that was running ssh bruteforce with 10s requests per second with unique IPs. It stopped after we disabled password auth.

How did they know my address from having a Google account?

by verroq 6y ago
So you have to tell Google what your address is?

Powder game is the first I was aware to have a pressure system. There were of course falling sand games before that.

How does any of what you claim, even if true, make affirmative action not racist? Or do you intend to engage in whataboutism? Also securing a country’s border is not racist.

It’s standard rhetoric at this point. It is pretty appropriate for this kind of rent-seeking.

Won’t be surprised if they just bribed the guard.

Being a non-profit doesn’t give them a pass on making bad products. Being open source doesn’t give a free pass on bad products. If they choose a unsustainable business model, where making profit ruins their product, then they created this p

I just think it is very seedy to bundle it with the browser and it rubs a lot of people the wrong way.

They are allowed to make good products too you know. If Pocket is the best they got then they deserve go to zero. If they have a product so polarising then maybe it shouldn’t be bundled as bloat to the browser.

Its existence signifies that something fundamentally is wrong with Firefox and where Mozilla spends its resources. If it is so unpopular, how come Firefox hasn’t axed it? How come only popular things like advanced extension support gets axe

They are pretty xenophobic, if you are Chinese or worse Korean you might as well be a gaijin.

When was the last time North Korea had a race riot? Also North Korea has a lot more geopolitical disadvantages at hand, namely sanctions. An ethno state helps you avoid several classes of problems, like strict typing prevents runtime type e

So it’s blind? Reminds me of the Invisible Man plot hole where the guy gets turned invisible and thus his retinas also become transparent and therefore he shouldn’t be able to see anything.
