Still shit on balance. Still only affects casuals; there's always several ways around, and Our Betters are satisfied if they're sufficiently obscure, but they don't seem to realize these ALWAYS propagate until it trickles down to being a phone app "on every street corner" so to speak. Then they whack-a-mole, drop a new barrier, and the cycle begins a new.
It's a rather literal proof of a distinction for "doing something before it was cool."
That bugged me. Do you want me to lift it off the shelf gently? Do you want me to read the label slower? My bullshit meter is flickering, but it's not all because of aloe vera labels.
Seize control. You are the operator. You do as you wish with the pages/files that others publish. They are broadcast and offered unconditionally; any implicit obligation to obey their server's instructions to fetch+load extra data (ie ads), or even (God help you) execute things, on YOUR machine is to be done at your operator's discretion.
They were comfortable with something they never should've had.
I'm not even arguing that on ethical grounds, or The 4th - they were simply lucky to enjoy a window where they were blessed with the brute force power to override the efforts of citizens to have private documents.
Honeymoon's over, deal with it. Pay some gray hats if you want to keep getting access you're not supposed to have.

I don't program, but the only sane way to designate a lifted string is to explicitly nest it. All of it. Reproduce verbatim, including the communicated effects of punctuation. Then go back out a level as if you never left. Punctuate the parent thought as appropriate, it has no regard to the nested thought's punctuation, and vice-versa.

No load screens, no ads, no load screens, no dashboard, no load screens, no phoning home, no load screens, no "recommendations and promoted offers"
You get the urge to stomp a goomba, and you could have one under your shoes in twenty seconds. Now you have to make an appointment and sit in a waiting room.
It's a metaphorical waiting room, not a literal one, for those of you who can't keep up.
Locally I can see the appeal, would be nice if optimized. But unless you write your own I just can't see this being under the appropriate degree of user-in-control. And appropriate for this kind of logging would be Very Very High.
Besides that, you'd absolutely want this offloading securely, encrypted. Only an idiot would look at that kind of logging and not think "This has to be isolated and not an easy reach from my compromise'able machine" (in other words, the gullible user masses)
>It's not a fscking TV
My guess is that this is what normals use it for anyway. But it needs to facebook and check my email so I need 4GB RAM and a $800 price tag.
No they won't. They'll keep drinking. They'll complain, but so long as it (eventually) pulls up whatever social site or curated headlines they want they'll keep drinking. And blaming autocorrect.
Teenage Me made a few bucks off these people. They always called sooner or later - later being when their browser won't even launch. Next Gen Me will do what he can, but it's not as easy to get under the hood when your OS is a decorative garden. I'll probably suggest he learn to replace dropped screens.

Row row, fight the power.
Past revolutions and evolutions never obsoleted labor, only shuffled it around.
The only export Prolekistan has to offer is going to evaporate. We all know what happens to countries with nothing to export.
There is going to be no way to move the money down. I'll be fine, you'll be fine, our descendants are fucked.
- Shouldn't.
- Couldn't anyway.
- You're still gonna try.
30 years and we still think we can control the internet.

You betrayed yours with your grade-school writing.
That's a hyphen up there. Do you know where yours was supposed to be?
Hope? Just report it, it's that easy friend. You said you were offended, that means the verdict is already guilty.

Stopped reading here. A new record.

I'm surprised you were able to use a pronoun in there, and deduce a shortened implication from context instead of being retard-grade explicit.

Great mental image though, coupled with "naked black hole"

Fry, remember that talk we had about ending your stories one line earlier?

Ugg was illegally humming Grook's privately-owned music property before your floating trees.
"Me wish happy birth-day is yours!" o/~
But Ugg owns intellectual rights to round wheels. Entire human species owes Ugg royalties. Also some animals. Also most extraterrestrials.
But wait, they're successful, they're big time, they're a household name, they must be valuable trendsetters.
Much like whatever a Kardashian is.
You will be recommended to the Ministry of Reeducation. It is for your benefit. You will comply. You will be made better.
You also have to hold it there. Because no user experience is complete without a half-second delay on every possible bit of I/O.

Oh wait esc keys aren't hip anymore. Never mind.
