It's been a long time since I've seen a Captcha that wasn't a simple "[ ] I am not a robot" followed by a simple "Click on all the pictures of [FOO]" if it happens to think you might be a robot.
If you put a floppy in your computer, would it autoplay? No.
Do your external hard drives autoplay when you put them in? Nope!
The issue here is the bullshit autoplay. CDs and DVDs are guilty of that as well. I have no idea why it's a default feature on computers... the default should be to just open the volume like a drive to allow you to peruse the files on the medium and select what you want to open.
IMO this is a HUGE failure on the OS and whoever decided to allow Auto Play to be a thing.
I mean, the thing starts off by asking you to touch it with your dominant hand. Then it asks you to touch its buttocks. Who wouldn't be a bit hesitant on that.
Whoa, when I clicked your link I was given a pop-up on the Google page about them updating their ToS or something like that... really strange coincidence.
Seriously, we've got the same stagnant pile of shit that the US has when it comes to service providers. About the only difference here is that we get to pick which company we want to bend us over, and we are free to jump from one to the next. But we've had data caps for at least a decade now, and the base prices are HUGELY inflated (as evident in provinces like Manitoba and Saskatchewan - which both have their own independent providers... and service with the big 3 cost significantly less).
Well, if the law is from 1789, clearly they should have to unlock the phone using tools available at the time the law was written. After a few whacks with a hammer, they could have confidently reported back that they were unable to unlock the device.
With this breakthrough epiphany, we can further slow the eruption of Yellowstone by cooling its inner temperature down. How? Simple! Regular "Donations" of ISIS members, deposited through the top like a piggy bank.
I can't see any other valid reason for tossing somebody in jail for over 2 fucking weeks just for firing off a text message while walking. I don't even think drivers get hit that hard for using phones behind the wheel, do they?
Jail time!? For walking while on the phone!? While I believe that squishy-yet-breakable pedestrians should be held responsible for accidents, I don't think jail time should be given just for walking and talking on the phone... that's just fucking insanity! You're handing the cops extra reasons to be overly aggressive and find ways to toss people in a jail. What an amazing time to NOT be American.
Next up we should arrest animals that run across the road! Minimum 30 day sentence for those furry fuckers.
I've never understood why legal banter always has to use the numeral and then toss the word in brackets beside it. Are they implying that I need to multiply the number by itself? "I hereby declare that I give 3 (three) fucks" so are you saying you give me 3 fucks? Or are you saying you give me 3(3) = 9 fucks? Please elaborate.

Wouldn't it be neat if Google's very own system was being used to crack their CAPTCHA system?
Seems to me you guys end your anthem with something about "land of the free"? I think it's pretty safe to remove any references to that one.

Big fucking deal.

Can this be fixed by flashing a custom ROM? Or did they sabotage the radio?

I mean, who else makes threats to "shut down the internet"?

Time to bring back my good ol' BBS!

/. looking for validation after years of shitty editors and butthurt.
I was a blacksmith in those days. I had a hammer, you insensitiver clod.
I'm okay with that. It could be argued that word on a screen is considered printed. And Muskets are far less deadly than assault rifles and pistols...

Doesn't "Snubbing" Google mean that people will actually have to buy that trash?

Hey, this makes sense! Thanks for giving enough foos to reply to my comment.
The sale of tote bags and brief cases plummets around the time Bitcoin was created.
Gonna be pretty hard securing Radeon licensing from nVidia... maybe they should have considered switching way sooner.

Oh! That makes a lot of sense, actually. Glad that other guy had your back :)
