Lots of companies use Glassbox to this degree.

Why wouldn’t the US want to be involved? FEST responds to vast majority of these incidents, simply because we want to know if someone was behind it.
And what exactly is wrong with any of those? Don’t like this country, then get the fuck out.

Then don’t put your band there. Oh wait: you’d be complaining about Bandcamp and no recognition then.

Not everything needs to be “justice”. Quit diluting words and actions.

They create ghost profiles for those contacts, just in case that user ever signs up. That’s fucking garbage and they should be ashamed of doing that, let alone immediately removed from the App Store.

You sound like a real joy.

Quick: let’s implement ID for everything, because that clearly stops criminals.

Started doing this a few years back - not only does it help with public speaking, but it also is a form of debugging whatever you’re talking through.

Nothing wrong with having a little external monologue.

“Fraud”...uh-huh. Please be clear that you mean AD fraud and not fraud-fraud.

Also: boohoo

Sounds like Diamond Age should be required reading - scifi is too real.
This is true, but the balancing act between when to push back and when to say yes is VERY minute for many situations. Unfortunately, this comes with experience and many don’t learn it (if at all) until later in life.
Did they prorate the AppleTV at least? If not, that sounds like outright theft.

I didn’t consent to have my passwords or SSN leaked though, so your argument is naive at best, idiotic at worst.
I don’t believe it. They had MIRVs even back then. There’s no difference in density between .5 miles and 15 miles. You’re fucked either way with: direct impact, over pressure, and radiation/fallout.

This sounds like some armchair theory.

They do it with youtube now as well and demonitize ANYTHING with firearms in it. Doesn’t matter if you’re a hunter or trying to sell people on a new product.

All these disparate media sources that we yearned for back in the cable-only days have finally turned to dogshit.

That’s exactly how it should be: party at fault gets charged.
Doubtful, considering you need a license, equipment, knowledge, etc.

Chad and Karen don’t give two shits about it.

I have an OG iPod that I still use to this day (replaced the battery and storage).

Still works and looks great!

Unlikely. A fair number of people are multiple payments/rent behind, not to mention still missing their unemployment checks.

Shooting people over Chinese made Gucci shoes is idiotic. Grow a spine.
Cool story. We’d still believe the Earth is flat (some idiots still do) if we went by this logic and didn’t question the status-quo.

Re:Boeing 737 Max: Automated Crashes [video] on Monday December 30, 2019 @10:27AM (#21913904)
True, but I also know the Max has at least one serious design flaw.

I don’t know the same about my car, which is why I’ll take it over a Max any day, and that’s why Boeing is having to PR themselves out of this mess.

ANYONE can lose that kind of money - that's the point they were getting at.

No need to be pedantic.

The PMs, engineers, and person sitting at the wheel should all be charged with manslaughter. Maybe then we'd get actual improvements.

But who am I kidding? We can't even lock up bankers for simple shit.

Re:A Dumb TV for Consumers on Sunday October 20, 2019 @11:03AM (#21304584)
Then get a Vizio.

My P series can be run: with remote, with app, or via the tablet it came with (also app).

It’s a barebones glorified monitor, but it works great for streaming.

They don’t need to inquire why when the vast majority of students fall into the former category.
