necessity

A very good idea.

BBC.com as of late has been turning into Clickbait.com

It's not the English Wikipedia.

it was just a prank bro!

Except Uber didn't do anything deserving of a boycott.

>This makes zero sense. It's on par with saying "dude just turn off javascript".

That's what you actually should do, I use NoScript and it's perfectly fine. Stop bitching and demanding people force others into the things YOU want.

Are you comparing child label to a a shitty corporate environment? And where did you get "hotbed for discrimination" from?

Don't do business with companies that have such contracts? If there is no choice in a given sector then the issue is a monopoly not the contracts.

The risk of a centralized web is censorship by government.

It's that simple. Other things may be a risk also, but not because of a centralized web.

That's fair, I will be more civil. But I don't think I am able to edit my comments.

IIRC Delphi compilers are usually single pass and thus really fast

I don't want to post about politics either, but people post ideological stuff, ideological replies should be expected, no? When I started using the website it was more focused on what it was meant to be, and I don't think I ever discussed politics then. Then the American elections happened and people started posting politics all the time. Well, political replies ensue. I flag posts that are purely political, I don't just reply to them.

>anti-communist red scare

McCarthism was as much anti-fascist as it was anti-communist, but of course commies would rewrite history to play the victims. Read the actual laws, it never mentions communism without mentioning fascism in the same sentence.

Given no context I would have guessed that this comment was made on a Star Trek fan forum.

Don't download them? Out of those apps the only one you actually need is Uber, everything else can be replaced with a web browser. I don't download anything larger than 5MB unless I absolutely need it.

Aside from theft - of which the only evidence is money passing through the wallet of people associated with him - it seems that no crime was committed. Another attack on Bitcoin, and the war on drugs continues to kill more than the drugs themselves.

Still lame, just cropping and increasing saturation/contrast. Some of the pictures in the blog post look worse than the originals, they are artificial.

Facebook is a company, a superfluous one even, no need is forcing you to use it and there is no need for it. Don't like the don't use it. Don't like tracking configure your browser accordingly and get a blocker. It's easy and free.

What are better alternatives in terms of call quality? Hangouts is pretty bad and WhatsApp is awful in my experience. Despite the bloat and the UI Skype is still the only good experience I had.

I'd say the media, who was already after Uber.

That's only if you confuse the business model/company with the image of its CEO.

I believe that (much) more relevant than that is what regulators do with these services around the world. For the people it doesn't really matter if it's Uber or Lyft. We are already seeing a protectionist wave of regulations getting rid of affordable transportation throughout the developing and the developed world, I can only imagine that when self-driving cars actually hit the market for good it will be on the whole forbidden in some countries...

Not in Brazil no you can't.

I wouldn't be surprised if some traffic-related agency was using Windows98, I've seen everything from supermarkets and grocery stores to banks and post offices using Windows98 here (Brazil).

Don't like it don't use it.
