I thought the idea was that information wants to be free, and we shouldn't restrict content (unless it's clearly illegal, like child porn). Even if it's content you don't agree with...
Indeed. Everyone gets to piss in the pool, except that guy with smallpox.
What would be better would be working to be sure everyone knew the truth about the pool.
So if stores stop giving them out, then I need to buy them instead.
Good. Then maybe you'll make an informed purchase and buy some bio-degradable bags or proper trash bags that don't break down into fine particles as soon as they see a sunny day unlike the shitty thin shopping bags that are given out at stores which are pretty much the worst for the environment.
I'll buy whatever is cheapest to do the job. Ebay direct from Shenzhen works for me.
Maybe we will soon need bag police at the borders.........
I use plastic bags I get from the stores for kitchen waste, for scooping the cat litter, occasionally to carry packed lunches, and various other things.
So if stores stop giving them out, then I need to buy them instead. The folks who sell (admittedly better quality but also more expensive) bags are probably laughing all the way to the bank.
Apple's version of the right to repair. You have the freedom to try, but you'll fail. Makes a mockery of its environmental friendly energy and whatnot image polish.
Yes, products like this should make them environmental pariahs, but they will buy carbon credits to make up for it. Really!
And the more often you have to replace them the more carbon credits they (well, actually you) will buy!
A smartphone developed by Oracle? I've been fortunate enough never to have crossed paths with Oracle's infamous licensing terms, but I could picture it now:
Every time you used your phone for any purpose whatsoever, you'd have to pay a fee to Oracle.
This was my first thought also. WTF would by an Oracle phone? Google, for all their faults, at least provides some value. Oracle is just a douchey company with little redeeming value at all.
The headline should simply be "Instagram recommended I follow other anti-vaxx accounts after I followed one".
You don't even have to subscribe or add to favorites with Youtube. If you watch any sort of sketchy video while logged in, similar content will forever be part of your suggestions. Not surprising Instagram is the same.
I've just become careful what I watch, ever, so as to not contaminate my profile with perpetual bullshit.
LOS ANGELES — With California entering its fifth year of a statewide drought, Gov. Jerry Brown moved on Monday to impose permanent water conservation measures and called on water suppliers to prepare for a future made drier by climate change.
If this was about busting people for texting and driving, a cop could stand by the side of the road while his partner is two blocks up in the cruiser and they'd probably get somebody every five minutes.
They routinely do stings like that here. Cops riding buses looking down on drivers and radioing to the marked cars ahead is one method. Cops dressed as homeless people begging on the boulevard is another. We call them HoboCops, and they catch a lot of people.
It's time we spent an afternoon turning the DPRK military and missile test facilities into slag. It's a fake country that has no more reason to exist than East Germany did.
Did you ever consider you are the reason so many countries have a completely legitimate desire for nuclear deterrence?
Let me quote Article fucking 50 itself: "the Union shall negotiate and conclude an agreement with that State, setting out the arrangements for its withdrawal, taking account of the framework for its future relationship with the Union"
Sorry, what in that line suggests they have to guarantee you something you like?
It's not in any way been an amicable process with the intent to make things as painless as possible.
LOL. Fucking duh.
Anyone who told you it would be, they were lying. Alternative facts perhaps.
Pedophiles are no more prevalent in the gay community that the straight one. And I doubt conservatives are underrepresented either, just throw some clergy in there.

Excessive taxation drives underground markets. So good luck with that.
to email is another horrible mistake just waiting to happen.
Seen that a few times. Makes me shudder.

Green, green Apple! ROFL.
Hopefully, like The Pirate Bay and others blazing the trail before them, they can continue to fight evil and make the world a better place.

Those artists are going to have a hell of a time when nobody links to their work
Stop indexing links from companies that want money for them.
Problem solved.
..... is stunning in nature, speed, and scope. Indeed. And I take great pleasure in fucking over you music industry douchebags.
I find other ways to support the actual artists, they have value to society. The RIAA otoh, has none at all.
Thanks. I did not know that.
Cheers

The point is droughts and floods are not a new thing, despite what some interests would like you to believe.

Gender inequality causes climate change?
I knew it!
Lots of kids hanging out in the neighborhood park, smoking weed yesterday.
That certainly beats obsessing over the end of the world.

Wait, wait, wait, you're saying their stiff upper lips don't grant them Exceptionalism in the eyes of other Europeans?! Shocker.
But, but, but, they had Churchill! And Queen Elizabeth!
I've been listening to the Queen a lot since I saw Bohemian Rhapsody.
Oh, wait...
