This is an absolutely mind-blowing quote, thanks for sharing.
Local software != map data, necessarily.
One might begin to wonder if there's more than mere correlation between those who adopt socially conservative beliefs and those who seem unable to paint their environment in anything other than such broad strokes...
Do you have a source to cite for "the approach that the vast majority of purchasers prefer"? That seems pretty speculative. The market can be manipulated or directed by more than simply consumer choice, e.g. by business…
`self`, `this`, `$1`, etc. are also fun to sprinkle in there.
The problem is that this wasn't the only way they were gathering this info, and that they misled consumers by allowing them to turn off a setting that supposedly stopped this kind of tracking, while still continuing to…
Definitely worse, but also the next logical step given that an ad company has achieved relative browser dominance and has such weight to throw around in defining web standards. Moves like this were inevitable. Writing's…
Please read TFA. It answers this question.
"What about $otherthing?" Neither is good, but that doesn't necessarily make the topic you're attempting to pivot to relevant in this situation. Also, Cloudflare (provider of the external service you mention, assuming…
"Expected" != "Acceptable" though, IMHO.
Having worked in a call center myself at one point, I'd say the primary difference is the directly-customer-facing nature of that work. When a call comes in (and there are often a large number of simultaneous calls)…
Unless they have a carefully-worded Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
This comment sounds like something Linus Torvalds would say - completely eviscerating but entirely accurate.
How would you change the date if you can't get around the prompt?
A better option may simply be to fork and add the additional features, not necessarily create a new client.
I bought a non-M1 Macbook a decade ago and there were absolutely zero issues wiping it from stock. That was one of the first things I did, and everything performed as expected each time. How did things progress so far…
You might be underestimating the percentage of the population for whom the internet is Facebook. Just like AOL a few decades ago, there are still plenty of uneducated people who genuinely don't know how to navigate the…
The hardware is open-source, you can theoretically update the firmware so you're not vulnerable if a researcher finds a bug after your purchase, there's currently no support for getting it to act as a keyboard and type…
This is kinda both hilarious and helpful. Thanks for sharing.
Or you can get it from the official source [0] and not some PDF on a file sharing site linked from an HN comment. [0] https://beej.us/guide/bgnet/
I've also personally never understood the slash syntax. Since one word requires the "s" and the other doesn't, shouldn't we use parentheses like when words may or may not be plural? e.g. "(s)he" like you might say…
There used to be a service - IIRC called "please rob me" - that tracked users' movements based on geotags in EXIF data posted to social media. Pretty scary, and actually implemented. Most sites weren't stripping EXIF…
FWIW the U.S. equivalent is "banana hammock".
Didn't downvote so can't be 100% certain, but it may be related to the fact that this isn't Reddit.
Unfortunately this would effectively pin down a candidate to their word and past promises they may have made - most politicians seem to avoid doing that when possible ;)
