This is why i stopped using an ISP router.. And went eiht pfsense. Last time i tried to change a port forward my wifi went out for a whole week before they even answered. I gave u at that point. They think you're absolutely brain dead, they treat you like you're absolutely brain dead. And they themselves are absolutely brain dead. I had enough. So I've installed my own shit and i haven't had an outage since then. Surprise surprise?

Its still stupid to trust anyone with your only copy of your important data, who can just disable your account in an instance without thinking twice about it.

And none of these magazines or whatever will ever lower their price. Major savings, but only for our shareholders!

Could make it so it's possible to create an unique certificate for each site, though most people probably wouldn't bother

It had such a GLaDOS vibe, so i thought it was a reference to that. I guess life really does imitate art.

Wait, does this mean the Replit case was actually real!? I was sure it was just a skit or rage bait. I didnt think anybody could be that stupid...

Does the argument work both ways? If effort is the same as being paid for. Does that mean pirating a game is the same as buying it? After all it's basically the same effort these days.

Of course the argument doesn't fly, as you cant actually buy a game anymore, just a temporary license for an undisclosed amount of time.

It's especially funny how Republicans are against regulations because according to them, it stifles progress and innovation. So why are they against regulations that try to force progress and innovation?

Of course we know why, because it's all a lie. They just want more money for the 1%. How there is even a single (non-1%'er) idiot left that votes for them is waaaay beyond me.

Because hospital staff have better things to do than baby sit every person that walks in? They are pretty well known for always being overworked already.

Then the door will always be locked, unless the MRI is being serviced, as the magnet is always active. Kinda kills the point of the machine, no? That said they could put in more safeguards for sure. Though you would think all the signs on and near the door, and the extensive explanation you get, would be enough. But here we are.

I'm starting to notice that a lot of people don't even notice what are ads or not. When i installed pihole and enabled it for all devices at home. My gf was complaining why suddenly a loy of pages wouldn't work anymore. Yeah, so she always clicked the ad/sponsored link everywhere and didn't have the slightest clue. And let's not start about social media and how basically 75% of it is (hidden) ads.

Personally I'm of the mentality if some company force feeds me their ads while i was not actively searching out their product type, I'll think 3 times before ever considering their products. Thankfully, i see basically no ads (online) anymore these days.

Exactly, if garbage collection meant memory safety then why do we get null pointer exceptions about every 5 minutes in Java. Garbage collection is about memory leaks, not safety. Imho the borrow checker is a better solution than garbage collection and faster to boot.
