No, and probably won't ever go there. I wasn't talking about sole theoretical social media website having these, but rather these features becoming best practice for all social media platforms.
This. I would add that Social media is great, however personal control over the platform sucks. We should have the following features: - Ability to become invisible towards any other social media participant. For example, after getting a divorce I should be able to make my account invisible to my ex-wife. She would no longer be able to see anything related to my account, even when shared by common acquaintances. - Ability to easily and permanently delete own account and any data hosted within it. - Ability to suspend my account (disable) together with any data hosted on it. - Make potentially insecure data sharing points (e.g. last time logged in, idle for, change status after x minutes of inactivity, location sharing) opt-in, rather than opt-out. Clearly asking for permission during account set-up, with weekly/monthly account settings e-mails is preferred.
UIs are becoming shittier and shittier. I see a monochrome+blue layout, a flat UI with no differentiation between elements (where does one start and where does the other end), with a tendency for that horrible minimalist approach MIBs get off on. It's all shit.
Not necessarily. In case of money stored in a bank, the bank takes care of everything and you pay them to do so. Your money are insured up to a certain amount (definitely not 350M). That's the advantage. The disadvantage is that the wealth you have stored can be taken away from you (asset freezing, government turning cuckoo, etc). In case of cryptocurrencies, you can secure them as strongly (or weakly) as you want. Nobody else is or can be made responsible for your "wealth" but you. That's the disadvantage, so-to-speak: greater risk of you losing access to them because you weren't careful enough. The advantage? Nobody else can take your wealth away from you.
In case of death you're guaranteed you'll lose all your money, just sayin'. Oh, next of kin? Write down the words on a piece of paper and store it in a safe box. Create 10, 20, 100 wallets, spread your coins to all of them, write many words on many pieces of paper and store those in multiple safe boxes. Then make a will and tell them in it how to recover said wealth.
Bury the piece of paper in your backyard. Carve the words on a wall behind furniture in your basement. Create a poem with each verse containing one of the words and publish it online. Etc.
There are many methods to safely store the information needed to recover a lost wallet.
It's just a private key. The effort to keep 1 bitcoin safe is identical to the effort to keep 350m bitcoin safe
Really? Surely you must protect that private key somehow, both from theft and from loss.
Yeah, keep it in your head. The core wallet generates a string of words, which you learn by heart. Then, whenever you want to regain access to your funds, you install a new core wallet application and restore your wallet using those words.
Actually, the libraries difference are not only because of that. The main reason Netflix can't make certain movies or series available in certain countries is active exclusivity contracts.
Some movies and TV series have been licensed for distribution to company A for country X. Therefore, Netflix can't offer those movies because they would breach the exclusivity contract.
this doesn't help customers either, by the way. It's actually why I ditched Netflix after a few months.
People going out isn't because they are forced to go to the cinema. It's the culture. Children grow up going outdoors, socializing etc., in ways they find enjoyable and result in them doing the same thing through their adulthood.
Oh come on! Hari Seldon is a very well defined character. Great characters abound: Yugo Amaryl, Raych, Dors Venabili, even Demerzel/Daneel. You could even infer a couple emperors' character traits from the scenes they appear in. That alone for the first book.
Admittedly, the interim period up until the Mule is a bit bleak, however Bel Riose is a good character worth expanding a bit, and moving on to the latter books, I liked the Golan Trevize/Janov Pelorat/Bliss trio, a LOT. They go through quite a few adventures together.
You get data from the age table and not correlate it with names, then aggregate it. Most crypto exchanges require an ID scan for you to be able to engage in meaningful trading.

Shit I forgot about that, I fucking hate that.
Frankly I think it should be made illegal - after all it's false advertising.
What's wrong with Pidgin?
Did that work with XMPP?
This.

There are many more, consider this a shortlist.
Who were those who invented the ".99" marketing gimmick? I don't recall...

Yeah, like gaming is 10 times better...

So are his teeth.
Monero, VIVO and so on.

Why is this fractured logic modded up is beyond me.

And they don't really have them.
The interdiction to stream for 36 months is not to their benefit, it's an argument AGAINST what you're saying.

I guess the question is: live long or live well?
Also explored by Asm'imov in his robots trilogy.
Oh come on!

Hence their decision to make a TV Series. You know, the kind that could have 100 episodes :)
Depending on wether the RTOS is hard of soft; so long as you can deterministically meet a deadline, you can pre-empt and still be a hard RTOS.
That's EXACTLY what she said!
Speaking of...
"a law in the country requires movies to not appear in home platforms for 36 months after their theatrical release"
That's helping viewers how, exactly?
They're not supposed to do that!
I guess that phrase pretty much sums up the reason for this Congress hearing's existence :)
