People who don't think the way you do are online trolls.

As George Bush said there, terrorists have no rights or recourse. And he is a terrorist. So?

So he was guilty anyway, that's all I needed to read.

Yes sorry. The browser is directly owned by a for-profit, then.

You're talking about the same Firefox that displays ads on my home page by default, sends analytics to them by default, and is owned by a foundation that is owned by a for-profit c…

I admit I don't go to the cinema and I consume almost no mainstream entertainment but for the last years all I've heard about, regarding cinema, is Marvel, Marvel, Marvel, Marvel, …

I don't like it, it's un-C-like.

Banning the spreading of ideas requires control of information, yes.

I think "protesting in front of twitter HQ for enabling a political view I don't like" is a silly thing to do. If you don't like X (in this case fascism) I am sure there are better…

They will just switch to whatsapp. I'm sure "human rights" advocates will be extra happy about the end to end encryption now :')

"human rights abuses"... so they will lean left, like that Twitter committee.

Netflix uses fast.com and their speed index as a way to extort ISPs into giving them traffic for free. They refuse to pay any fees to connect directly to ISPs and then they use tha…

I used the wrong term, I meant "dominant position". Google has one with Android and they abuse it. That's why they are being fined.

Apple does not have a monopoly dominant position. In my country I think they are like 10% of the market. You can't abuse your dominant position if you don't have one.

In what cultures exactly?

In this case it was a political change; some OEMs caved and changed the pistol to a water gun and some did not. Emoji are a vital part of the way we communicate online so some see …

That's not everything the TFA says. It begins talking about how uncivil the Chinese are.

The point of Windows is Win32 and DirectX. At least for me: those are the two reasons I can't move to any other OS.

Just prepend https://outline.com/ to the URL. https://outline.com/http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-fe...

Yeah, the same many developers haven't escaped strings they inserted into SQL tables, leading to SQL injections. Does this mean if I don't do that I have a right to brag about it? …
