Its hard to really blame Photobucket, if the images are embedded everywhere then they have no opportunity to show ads and fund servers. People using them for commercial purposes have no justification for complaints other than lack of notice.
Think about the near future - retail stores will be using facial recognition to build profiles on people who enter their stores and will attempt to associate those profiles with names & addresses.
Its not the link, its the fact that sites embed Facebook scripts that your browser requests and Facebook uses to track people browsing the web. When the user isn't logged in they still track them and attempt to associate it with an account later. Its pretty sleazy and why you should have Adblock block Facebook (and Twitter, and Google) domains on third party sites.
While javascript is a turd, I think node is likely here to stay. It lets the amateurs in web development (not that all web devs are, or that all node users are) function with a single programming language.
Hopefully WebAssembly takes off so we're saved from Javascript.
As someone who wrote an enterprise application using AngularJS for 5-years - the original one was great. I haven't checked recently but v2 was a flaming pile of garbage that didn't properly work. I also would expect people to be a lot more cautious about adopting v2, users writing real applications don't have the luxury of re-writing the entire UI every couple years.
This was my thought also, the 'authentic' goods are probably in no small part fake. if Nike is controlling the supply chain then third party sellers won't have access to their goods at wholesale prices hence they'll need either significant markup or will be counterfeit.
Describing it is a collectible is crazy - do your 90s comics or sports cards have any value? Neither will vinyl - its mass produced and people aren't treating it as disposable because they assume it will have value.
One has to wonder about the usefulness of images for news stories. They will be either be a stock image, an infographic which is useless shrunk or a person where if you recognize the subject its likely there will be any number of stories involving them.
Unfortunately the retail system is setup in a way that scalpers aren't taking a risk, they can return the item without penalty if they don't sell it. We need stores to add restocking fees to high demand products.
While I think we should have these treaties, there is no way that the Russians would actually follow it any more than they followed international law when they annexed Crimea.
I'm not a fan of anti-viruses, but sandboxing doesn't actually prevent a viruses just makes it more difficult as someone needs to break the sandbox. Though it also means a well behaved AV wouldn't be able to function as it wouldn't have access outside the sandbox.
I guess this is the level of technical knowledge we get by allowing tech blogs on Slashdot.

Its actually shocking that Amazon allows hosting images offsite.

CDNs do have some performance advantages since they'll often be edge cached. The issue really is third party content.

I'd say 20k/month is pretty optimistic. That is an increase of 300% in a year, and of the 80k cars produced last year they had to recall 50k.
The first link talks about 24/192 which is actually not positive - https://people.xiph.org/~xiphm...

It may have been around a long time, but its period of popularity was from ~10-years ago to around ~5-years ago.

a sucker born every minute.
Are you sure that the companies didn't demand the monopoly before they put in the infrastructure?
There are a lot of regional telcos, from a market perspective they ought be attempting to expand into neighbouring territories. Collusion?
The title even says 129C Degrees which reinforces the measurement is in Celsius.

Or you could just use BitBucket for free.
Fucking really?
It will only stop at Apple approved stores.
