This is an interesting distinction. I wonder how, or if, China’s regulations would differ if it were free (freedom and/or beer). But, I think a country has a certain right to regulate when it comes to commerce, especially foreign commerce.

Hedonist festivals were a lot more popular historically.

Are you saying that companies have a right to distribute their work, for profit, unlimitedly? Regardless of how dangerous, addictive, financially ruinous, or socially destructive it is?

> The inalienable right to play Fortnite.
All governments restrict certain behaviors: alcohol (dui, public intoication, etc.), drugs(prohibition, prescription only), gambling.
Now, it’s fair to say that doing those, and doing them as much or as long as you like, is an inalienable right-like “expression”-is absolutely a position you can take. But all countries seem to agree that we shouldn’t do certain things, at least not to excess.

The rabies vaccine is usually only given post-bite, unless you’re unusually likely to be bitten (e.g. veterinarian).
If you don’t get the rabies vaccine shortly after being infected, you will almost certainly die.

You need to use `echo -n` in order to not have `echo` generate a newline.

We agree, and we're developing apps for Android as well. Unfortunately it seems that Google conditioned people for those first few months that ALL apps should be free. Now when someone charges $.99 they complain endlessly with comments like: "Great app, but not worth paying for. 1 star."
It's really troubling to see people viewing our (hackers) work this way.

30 seconds? Really? I'm surprised. On our development phones it took 10 - 15 seconds.
Although OCR is something we're looking at it on the phone, although you probably wouldn't be happy with how long you'll have to wait for THAT to complete.
