What you said that made sense needed just a few words: The licence was violated - plain and simple. VLC should no more have been submitted any more than GPLed code should be compiled in to Adobe Photoshop. Software freedom? Bullshit, take that trope and keep it in mind when you're outside Wallmart singing The Red Flag.
Thus isn't about software freedom; it's about licensing. In this context the only thing that should be respected is the licence. If its software freedom, plenty would argue that more permissive licenses are freer than the GPL. But i digress. That is a fucking endless debate, with good and bad arguments on both sides, but definitely not worth dragging in to this discussion. Focus on the matter at hand, brother kthreadd.
Case in point, the standard education given 150 years ago included multiple languages, classics, history, literature, logic, and mathematics. In order to graduate from University, you had to be proficient in all of these. Latin and quite often Greek were not optional, nor were the major European languages: English, Spanish, French, and German. Today, we teach a *very* different array of skills as a base point, but it's not any harder or easier for us than it was for them.
How would demographics compare between modern universities and universities from 150 years ago?
I'm guessing, pretty reliably I'd imagine, that today a considerably larger proportion of the population is educated. For example, education in the UK wasn't even compulsory until 1880. In the population as a whole, education levels are massively improved over those found 150 years ago. Where I see risk is in education becoming too narrowly focused on stuff that makes money.

Which covers false DMCA requests where they flag content that really belongs to someone else - such a VLC. You're right though that this perjury thing does nothing to solve the problem of DMCAs being sent for content that fits in to the "fair use" bucket.
Oh, and: Reddit is a very popular viral advertising platform. Most such sites are, including meme / funny sites. I'd say in some subreddits, almost all posts are fake. In many it's about half.
This sounds like baloney, so I'll write some Walking Dead fan fiction.
You ever known a real fighter? I do. His name is Larry Ellison. Back when I headed to Atlanta, only to find a graveyard, I hooked up with some survivors camped outside the city. Best fucking luck I ever had. It was a few days later I met Ellison. He'd returned from scavenging in the city. I heard that most are in and out in a day - you don't want to risk staying overnight unless you really have to. This guy had been on his own in zombie central for three days, and he looked like he'd just returned from the circus! I never saw anyone else that calm.
A week after that some walkers came through the camp. Calm as anything, he moved like a robot. I though that this was a guy with PTSD just bubbling under the surface, but then our eyes met as he jammed a screwdriver through a zombie head. You know what I saw? A caretaker. Ellison, the billionaire yacht enthusiast was somewhere else, probably with a warm fire and a harem of furries, while this man held the keys. No emotion, just relentlessly driving towards a time when we could sleep soundly.
I don't know where he is now. Maybe balls-deep in some guy in a Bugs Bunny costume, or still stalking decaying cities with that cold stare in which only a slight glimmer of the man remained? Either way, I hope at least one of those men has found peace. One night on watch he told me he used to make Java. I though he was a barista, and said as much. He half-smiled a moment, and said he gets a lot if that. With all those nights on watch, that's a out the only time I think I met the Ellison under the shell. I knows as well because I felt a burning need to push him off a cliff, and I can't explain why. Glenn, another survivor, told me that everyone feels that way about Larry.
The fast track method for fast-tracking article changes is to let Jimbo flop around on top of you. I can't believe he chose sex over the various rules and committees of deviant personalities.
That and candidates are going to be pretty interesting personality types if security isn't visibly high. Sure though it could be interesting to have a president whose security consists of keeping a well practiced Colt at his side and his back always to the wall.
I'd be surprised if its not an issue in Latin countries. I'm from the UK, where moving out and making my own way in the world was important. It's kind of a joke, but in my 30s I figured it was time that I started including money in birthday cards for my dad, because I should pay him back for some of what he's given me. A joke, but not entirely. Anyway, in Latin cultures its more acceptable to linger in the family home. Latin culture is a curious mixture of machismo and traits that I as an Englishman would see as being unmanly - specifically staying at home longer. There's just less of an emphasis on individualism that I'd see in the UK and Northern Europe and North America. From my perspective it'd be embarrassing as a man to have not moved out if the family home by my 30s - ideally much sooner. It's different though for women - at least in my probably biased mind.
Curious differences. In such an environment I can see more easily how a man could fall in to the trap, and the expectations of them could drive them to the safety blanket of home.
Most of my experience here is based on Latin Americans, North Americans and Northern Europeans. I'm told though that in Spain it's comparable to Latin America. I'd welcome corrections.
Had the same with a credit card company's customers. It baffled me how callers could argue and tell me that I am the credit card company in question. Been drunk at work but never so much so I'd forget where I'm working.
Have a good long piss before you go to bed. You'll be sleeping for quite some time. Security and functionality are about trade-offs. Even walled garden systems are relatively insecure, and being able to install anything from anywhere is an incredible risk.
What was the kid doing to fill a stock Nexus with malware? The computing equivalent of indiscriminate sex with Belize prostitutes? What you're looking for is hello.c
It doesn't do much, but it's at least as secure as the compiler and the system in which it's run.
We're presumably not in the kinds of jobs where this would be happening. People being paid through that method may not have the option to take a principled stand by bursting in to laughter before nipping home for a glass of Grey Goose.
But I pull it only half out of my pocket, hit the button, see if the text I got was from my kids or if there's an urgent issue requiring me to leave the theater to make a call, or go home/work. So maximum exposure time is less than 3 seconds, and any light would be directly to my left (so, the stairs, or my wife...), or reflected off my pants.
Well, commander. Don't get me wrong - we appreciate your being on call in case of alien attack or a "broken arrow" scenario. Your fellow cinema goers, and indeed the entire world, would be happier to see you delegate some of this responsibility so we can sit down together and enjoy a film without these flashes of light from your trouser region. If worried about your children, you could avoid placing them in a room full of fireworks, matches and broken glass. That way they just might survive the two hours necessary for us to enjoy a film and be in the presence of the world's last great hope.
I'm with you on that. When dining or otherwise in a conversation, it seems polite to excuse oneself before going away to fiddle with a phone.
And yeah, this affects all ages. I've seen plenty of adults incessantly fiddling with phones in cinema auditoriums. Same with people who pull out their phones during conversation and begin tapping away. May as well be pulling out a fucking newspaper and having a read in mid-conversation.
If we believe the submitter we must then accept that editors actually read and edit submissions. Sure, and I'm Leonard Nimoy, posting from my 3G enabled blimp.
It's westorange.info, not westorage.info. The editing is ridiculous.
You have unrealistic expectations. Editing here has long consisted of pressing "submit" and then spending the afternoon climbing under the desk to pick-up the Skittles that fell down there yesterday.
Definitely! TorBrowsers a great browsing experience and about as anonymous as you can get connecting from home. A couple of things to look for though:
1) Some sites, like Google won't let you. Just use DuckDuckGo instead. Even when using !google bang, it gets past the Google block on the exit relay IP.
2) Don't set yourself up as an exit relay. Really, don't do this! A non-exit relay is safe and helpful from any computer, but you really do not want the computer/IP address you use to be an exit relay. Bad things will probably happen.
Regarding this universal right you mentioned, can you quote something relevant to back this right up, such as from 'The declaration of human rights' or such?

The thing with targeted advertising is that it's still possible, just not as easy. We know that on a Counterstrike website there's little point in advertising training bras, while on an angel healing website there's a burgeoning population of naive marks waiting to buy the next mystical wonder. The biggest loser here would be content mills that are so unfocussed that they really don't have any significant target demographic. No worries for those ones though, there's plenty of scope for acai berries and industry uproar over a breakthrough made by a "local mom".
