  1. Re:So many ways to combat this... on Study: $1.8 Billion In Reshipping Fraud With Stolen Cards Each Year · · Score: 1

    I second you there is no interest. The solution is more costly than providing compensation, and plus compensation allows for tax breaks and setting money aside in fraudulent schemes I suspect. But it is all entirely speculation in my head.

    Mules...with that word in the summary we would not have to read the article. Though I already suspected it.

    I am talking about 20 years ago, when I stopped going regularly to cinemas in my home country. I did not really enjoyed the experience, so I stopped going. Four years ago went because a friend and my lady were insisting about it, and frankly ended telling to the lady on front of me to turn the damn phone off once it ring for the 14th or 15th time with an obnoxious tune each time an SMS got in. Thanks, but no thanks.

    Will you be arrested also from pirating the 1h of adverts they ram up your ass? They are not clear in the article. |ducks|

    I do not when you stop being a customer and start being a captive audience. Between having 1h of adverts rammed down my throat, nil condition nor hygiene, and that being a glorified garage/prison.... and for the record, they do not have time to clean properly the premises and I have been told in my student times by friends that work there that people wank and leave things like napkins and socks behind, and also the ocasional shitter. Not to mention when I gave up going to a movie where they did not even bother to clean properly the food and coke on the carpet. People and cinemas are disgusting.

    Only if you want. I have not been in cinema for a decade, and went there where I lived because I was expat in a fucking place that was boring as hell.

    This night googles have been used for years in the USA. So they jack you in price for sitting you in a glorified garage, already fuck the movie colours for it "not to be copied" to the point that for instance, the chromatic of several movies are definitely odd even when watching the original both on cinema and TV (Resident Evil, Chronicles of Ridick and Book of Eli comes to mind), and now they handle you as the enemy in the combat field, and teens cannot go there dating and petting without giving an hard on to the employees. I have not been in a cinema for years, and sure wont be in a near future. For me, it would be some place better than home, and not worse. A living room, they serving me lobster with me with I watched a movie, and with some naked female waiters, and I might reconsider it. Otherwise, I wont be paying to enter a glorified prison system. They are forgetting it is not your great-grandfathers time where they were awed by movies, nowadays we all have entertaining systems at home.

    People can be very daft. I remember a friend complaining about their computers being SLOW. Somewhat they sent me a link to a font to install with funny symbols...I installed in a VM and IMMEDIATELY the computer almost went to a halt. How hard would be to figure out it was that file had a malware payload I wonder...

    Does it? As people said, those things cannot be run well. A known politician here that was a desertor and traitor to the country in our colonial wars is (ab)using the right to be forgotten, and essentially the pages he is asking to "forgotten" are a bit of our history by now. Oddly they still can be found using he alias, but not using his name.

    Both VPNs to work and to commercial VPNs seem to be working fine both in OS/X beta, and the production one. The only long time complaint I have it to be mandatory to install policies to have connect on demand/always on functionalities.

    If I decline to interact with the music industry, then borrowing their musics is not "stealing" or "pirating" also I guess. To be fair, we have to apply the same logic everywhere...

    Managing the health of my system, speed of my experience, the inconvenience of ads is not stealing or dishonesty afaik. The adverts are severely gotten out of hand. I would not mind a non-intrusive line, now forcing us to watch video clips or huge images is not kosher. This is not a fucking TV.
