That's like 0.1% of people

As long as there are filtered words in the US no one can claim the higher moral ground here.

The images are sent for manual verification before you're turned in, so no.

What should they use instead, some half assed open source solution subcontracted to the usual cronies of the consulting business?

It is, actually. Once you restrict what others can say there's no freedom of speech anymore. It's like China saying you can't talk about the regime - I'm sure they consider that "basic human decency" as well.

Same in restaurants. They hate it when you pay with your card. They love untaxed income and I don't blame them.

The laws of my country already make it illegal for my mobile provider to take my private data and sell it away.

Why would you ever want to turn bluetooth off?

This was mandated legally by the European Union for videos that are not suitable for minors. (I assume this one contains gore or something like that? I haven't watched it)

I'd rather states legislate themselves any way they want.

So much this. Practically any other option is better than Python for web development if you're looking for performance.

I play counter strike with a delay of around 10 ms with servers that are hosted hundreds of kilometres away.

I didn't mention NAT at all. Practically all multiplayer games use a central server. It's impossible to know the IP addresses of your peers.

I didn't mention NAT. I'm comparing direct connections between peers with using a centralised server.

Still you are revealing your IP address to the other parties, which will be more than happy to DoS you to force you to disconnect, exploit 0-days in the game networking code to crash your game or get your private info, know where you are located by IP geolocation...

The idea of P2P in competitive videogames strikes me as absolutely insane

Europe didn't try to stop them at all.

Letting machines connect directly to each other in any context, and especially in the context of an online game, is a massive security and privacy risk.

In what way does getting your artefacts through ipv4 annoy you?

Gotta nuke something.

Nah, it's not. Buy a MacBook.

The cost of the infrastructure is not part of the >50% of taxes you pay. It's in the other part. You'd know that if you read the screenshot I posted.

And saying you have the option of using less electricity. Really laughable, sorry. I guess I'll turn off my refrigerator.

Over 50% of the electricity bill is taxes.

I live very close. Summers here fucking suck. You can't go out from 12 until at least 20.

The socialist government has allowed the price of electricity to soar so high (I think the higher it's been in decades) that many people simply cannot afford to turn on their air conditioners anymore. It really, really sucks.

Everything has to be read in context. This is gravely inconveniencing to the experience of shopping. Sorry I didn't get to work in the salt mines!

Actually yes, since some shops now only have paper bags which are expensive and break just by looking at them. If you forget to bring a bag from home you're in trouble, especially if your groceries are heavy and you're far from home - the bags are guaranteed to break. (This is Europe, so you're walking back, obviously)

And to think that the EU made it mandatory for plastic bags to cost money, gravely inconveniencing every shopper... And my country only amounts to 0.02% of plastic waste in the ocean.

That's how we got that stupid bot on GitHub that constantly says "comment here or I'll close this". From time to time I have to waste my time that way. I wonder if this means maintainers want us all day bumping bugs?

I've been doing that since forever with Gentoo. Old kernel and desktop but recent applications. Or the other way around, really.

I know this is going to be extremely controversial here, but bear with me. They gave customers more power for the same money. For those of us who don't really care too much about emissions, why should we be mad at Volkswagen? If anything we should be happy.

That's like saying that private property is worthless because the state can take it from you by force.

Technically that's correct, but if that generally doesn't happen then it's not something we have to worry about.
