If you are considering this device I suggest if your current phone has a grayscale mode, turn that on for a week to see if you can get used to it.

USAmerican here.

Business accounts usually have better uptime because that might mean money lost.

Some business ISP agreements have in them that they will give you money back if your internet is down over the rate they mentioned.

Home user agreements basically say they can cut your internet if they choose to do so for any reason.

Also business accounts can ask for a static IP address.

I don't actually know any consumer laws that protect home users more than business users. Which laws are you referring to?

Real title: DEA Officer made over $420k in 5 years as a drug dealer. Gets 17 years in prison.

Also interesting that they don't add Flac in the supported files for the iPods but mention RockBox.

I get this is a little pricey but it has expandable storage, a physical keyboard, a headphone jack, dual speakers, dual sim card tray, and a promise of 5 years of security updates.

Those bezels suck though. Either make the screen bigger while keeping the device dimensions or make the device more compact.

They are trying to see what they can get away with.

Banning IP ranges isn't going to work. A lot of these companies rent out home IP addresses.

Also the point isn't just protecting content, it's data poisoning.

That's the reason for the maze. These companies have multiple IP addresses and bots that communicate with each other.

They can go through multiple entries in the robot.txt file. Once they learn they are banned, they go scrape the old fashioned way with another IP address.

But if you create a maze, they just continually scrape useless data, rather than scraping data you don't want them to get.

Thr nice thing about Emmet is you can use what you know and slowly add on to it. I don't really use the CSS shortcuts. It's really useful for writing HTML that requires a lot of elements.

Reading the title and looking at the thumbnail, I was thinking, "sure I'll do a good deed and help out a noob." Then I read your post and I realized you know what you're doing better than me.

Hi all to those who wish to mock the founder of budget Vietnamese airline.

You should know your data is always up for sale so if you do plan on doing some mocking and you plan on visiting Vietnam ever in your lifetime, create a new, fake Facebook account using Tor, a VPN, or go to your local cafe with WiFi.
