I never claimed cartoons increased or even affected anything. I merely indicated they would be surprising to modern sensibilities, like other historical facts. This was related to an earlier question about why depicting blacks as gorillas was particularly hurtful. Your offtopic, your dragging political parties into this, your basically a moron. I knew that going in, but not everyone on Slashdot recognizes you and your alts. Are you Rush Limbough, or just a stooge that listens to him?
Not only were beating, lynching, and rape common and likely in Jim Crowe areas, they were likely in the North as well. Racism is not only a southern problem. Have you ever heard of a "sunset" town? They existed in many states.
Do you honestly think none of this was backed up by violence or threats of violence? We live an a remarkably peaceful time and it's difficult for many people to reconcile that with past attitudes and practices. In a perfect world, you could research this all yourself, but once again I'm wasting my time trying to educate an ignoramus. Yes, I know this is an unlikely way to change your mind, but I'm pretty sure your not fixable.
Read some history. This sort of depiction is just indicative of the low regard for non-whites. Yes, when these were depicted, rape, murder, lynching, & beating were all potential outcomes if blacks complained. The reality of jim crow was ugly. The reality of racism is ugly and violent.
I like their algorithm. You need a large enough seed for it to work properly. I wish they would offer a family subscription because I'm stuck with Spotify right now. I feel like Pandora is less likely to push me the paid for track vs Spotify who is heavily influenced by payola. I also dislike the "everything is a playlist" spotify system.
A relative gave us some old cartoons when my daughters were younger. My wife said she was watching a "Betty Boop" cartoon and couldn't figure out why there was a gorilla in the audience, until it started to spit watermelon and she realized it was a derogatory caricature. We removed those from our cartoon lineup.
I know some of the early Tom and Jerry cartoons I saw as a kid had similarly insensitive inclusions. It's actually pretty shocking to run across these sorts of things. It's easy to forgot how hurtful previous generations were. I'm often reminded of this when I hear young people talking about civil rights. They aren't cognizant of the sorts of things that really happened. They can't fathom the idea of living every day afraid of rape or murder without any authority to turn to for protection.
My kids have access to school issued Ipads, we also use a kindle with "Free time" which gives you access to alot of kids apps for younger kids. Phones are issued at age 13, and we watch usage and help the kids adjust. I find it helpful for my kids to stay connected with friends and keep in touch with us when we are out.
I have six kids and our policy is you get a phone at age 13. Old enough to be mature, but young enough that we can still control them. It's a great tool for the kids and gives us leverage for punishments. Our school system requires ipads for the kids, which has made it difficult to enforce a blanket ban. They always claim to be working on school work and the fight is not worth it.
Instead, I watch the bandwidth per device, although I don't generally snoop on actual content. The kids know I can if I want to, they have to unlock their phones at our request. I also turn off the network on a schedule, if the kids can't listen, and I've considered and discussed pairing the phone to a kdeconnect machine and logging all alerts and sms. Not necessary yet, but kids know they are being trusted and watched.
Well, since dlink patched the same hole (DLINK!) in 2014, yeah this is some shared codebase, and it was reported by security researchers in 2017, they really took their time.
Not true, where are all those offshore Apple pennies, among other companies with huge war chests? Your also ignoring that the economy has winners and losers. An appropriately managed government befits us all. YES, even the ones paying for it. The wealthy use all sorts of government services the poor don't need or aren't even aware exists. They also have better access (and usually preferential) to common services.
I run OpenSUSE as my preferred linux, but for my TV I use WIndows 10 tablet mode on a HP streambox. I couldn't get linux to play HBO go, although HBO used to support it fine. Netflix worked great on linux, but Windows 10 is more universally functional for streaming sites.
Slashdot Mirror
Me and my buddies, we were on our own a lot. Not neglect-like a lot, but shooting hoops at the local basketball court.
Didn't your parent's see what happened to the Fresh Prince? How could they neglect you.
There's a difference between censoring and choosing not to air in my house, especially when dealing with toddlers.

True. My "NAS" has a removable drive I use for offsite backups. I can grab a current copy of everything important and take it with me anytime.
I spend all day replacing myself with automation. I love it.
What software do you use for this on Android?

Why carry it, I can grab files via scp.
This sounds identical to KDEconnect, except for Windows.
KDE connect provides this on Linux. I get the SMS popups when I do 2factor authentication.
yeah, but even backblaze says their prices still make them competitive.
I just use a low power linux box, what's the appeal to hardware NAS. They are usually just a poorly configured Linux version that doesn't get patched.

Trying to kill the second hand market with the xbox one while keeping digital game prices no cheaper than the disc copy in retail stores.
I see digital download games way cheaper then I store prices, maybe not when they first come out, but the price scales down quickly.
Since that isn't even happening with phones, I find it doubtful.

I use a stream mini (HP), but these look compelling; https://azulletech.com/product...

Every penny you pay in taxes comes back to taxpayers. No company does that.
Removing all that cruft is a feature of government run programs. Efficient and well run programs are the norm, we usually hear about the exceptions.
