Nothing wrong in a good LARP, or masturbation for that matter. The problem with preppers is everything else about them.
Incidentally the same labels make Gmail fundamentally incompatible with the way IMAP works causing lots of weirdness whenever you use any standard email client not specifically designed for Gmail.
But a good landlord with fair prices will prevent evil landlords from price gouging tenants! /s
Just like any game ever sold on a CD.
Isn't it illegal under GDPR? It seems to be the exact same thing Facebook tried to do.
At first I really wanted to say "good, now they are treated the same as the Lebanese people living alongside them" but no, that definitely isn't "good" by any real measure of this word. I hope this whole tragedy will stop soon.
How does an offline installer from GOG differ from the offline installer provided on a CD/DVD?
This is equally true for almost any game ever sold, including physical ones. You only ever own a license that specifies what you can and cannot do with the game. The difference is in what this license is tied to, for example either a physical copy of a given game or an account that can be remotely deactivated taking away all your games. In GOG's case once you grab the installer, the game license cannot be easily forcibly revoked, just as with the physical copy.
This reasoning kind of falls apart when we consider that one or the most important rules of most religions is to convert others, or at the very least shun them one way or another. Being insufferable about their believes is a crucial part of their believes.
I'd even argue public votes can deescalate some situations, for example where both sides of a relatively heated discussion can see they vote each other up. They don't necessarily agree but they appreciate the other side's points.
As for the transparency, it's not possible to list all the votes of a user, one rather needs to list votes on a given post. To profile a given user the attacker would need to cross-reference the data from all posts and comments which is computationally infeasible, both client-side and server-side.
On Kbin the votes are 100% public for anyone. I've migrated to Lemmy after the frequent server issues with Kbin and I miss that part dearly. It was very easy to gauge whether someone was engaging in a good or bad faith discussion by checking the votes within a discussion. That being said, personally I'm very light on my downvotes, and I can see how someone more trigger-happy would see it as worrying. Personally I see the vote transparency as healthy though.
Say what you want about him, but guy's damn consistent. A massive asshole but a consistent one. All the easier to dismiss him as a whole package!
Will all due respect to your cat (please pet it for me), I'd definitely choose lack of the existential dread over my future financial situation over a pet.
And the sad part is that he's still awfully rich and none of this matters. His worst days are still better than the best days of most of the rest of us.
"Surprisingly dull"? Dull for sure, but was that a surprise for literally anyone?
I presume it's a reference to some GOP statement? Could anyone link the original?
Or frontdoor checkbox for that matter, given that it's the literal device owner that takes the action tripping their "security" tripwire.
