Nice! It's about time. Too bad they spent almost two decades doing the opposite, or I'd still have my account.

Do you retain ownership of the files upon cancelling your membership? If not, I wouldn't consider that "acquiring" so much as "borrowing".

This take seems very slanted towards new CD sales. I listen to a lot of underground music (namely black metal, hip-hop, and the like), and not only are CD's selling out regularly, so are cassettes. Once they've sold out, they hit

All great questions, and I'll preface my response to saying that the true answers to these problems would have to be addressed in the "industry-specific brainstorming" that I mentioned. The results could look wildly different

I don't consider forking to be a problem, though it very frequently gets treated like it's some silver bullet to the blockchain concept. Forking is the democratic nature of the system at work. A few key players in the system are n

And you've set yourself up for an answer;) I think any adversarial system has something to gain from blockchain. When participants of a system are naturally pitted against one another due to being competitors (a la engaging in a zero-s

Blockchains are cool. Very, very cool. Merkle trees on their own are pretty cool, and blockchains are just a Merkle tree hashed into a chain-like structure to create work for decentralized verification. This is a very clever concept, and

I think what it's actually showing (per Section 6.1) is that Amazon is using wishy-washy language to give the impression that they are not using voice recordings to build ad profiles on users[1]. They instead claim that it's for &

It's in their interest. I've scraped a lot, and it's not easy to build a reliable process on. Why parse a human interface when there's an application interface available?

I think you nailed it - I am indeed on 11. So good news! It looks like NoScript is attentive to user needs. Edit: seeing your edit - the plot thickens. I'm on 11.4.4 - any difference there?

Maybe I'm still misunderstanding, but when configuring the domain in the custom settings, it does allow you to limit the custom rules to only the site you're currently on, via the "Enable these capabilities when top page matc

And I am refuting the refutation by "knowing exactly what". Turtles all the way down. Do you see how silly this is yet? The comment you are defending is - logically - about as valid as not saying anything at all, which is exactly

With a specific claim demonstrating a contrary phenomenon, one would think. "Vague claims" aren't some rhetorical ace-in-the-hole. They can be argued against, presumably better than "you're wrong, and you should f

I think one could argue that your comment adds much less to the conversation. It's basically just "you're wrong, because I said so." Maybe - since you have a decade of material to draw from - you could offer a counter-ex

I don't know if that's exactly the claim they are making, but I can certainly attest to their timeline. It was a day-night shift from "Bernie or Bust" to "Eww Bernie Bros are gross". Putting my own politics asi

I'm curious what the implications would be for solar panels, or for any device that outputs excess thermal energy (like our computers). Would a solid device like this allow recapturing some of the energy that would otherwise be lost?

It's a bit odd to indict Mullvad for not doing anything about nefarious actors using their service, as the whole selling point of their service is that they don't keep track of who is up to what. If they start policing user traffi

Only if you assume that I look down on those I'm speaking of. I don't. It's an entirely human thing to do, and something most people will find themselves doing at some point.

You're not alone in this. I find it a very tired, unoriginal perspective to keep asserting how dumb other people are. At the end of the day, the simplest human brains are still a marvel of science and computational complexity. The fact

Look at the flipside, and it's pretty obvious. "We need to kill more zerglings" could trigger an algorithm detecting calls for violence, and maybe invoke feelings of concern in anybody who doesn't know what a zergling is
