Son, you don't know a fucking thing if you think WalMart has cheap groceries.
Lemme tell you about Maxi Foods, where you can get 6 pounds of onions for $0.99. Asparagus is $1.99 a pound. A 10 pound sack of potatoes is barely a buck.
If you think WalMart has cheap groceries, you're the kind of person Whole Foods would love.
"Does everyone have 360 degree surveillance in every room of their house now?"
As quickly as you idiots are allowing the rest of the population to willingly surrender their rights with camera in everything and everywhere by doing nothing to educate the populace.....
Spoken like an idiot that has never hired a maid service.
Please, come back when you've actually tried these services and have been either ripped off or had criminal acts performed upon you before opening your mouth again.
"It is a lot more complex than a basic 2d photo recognition."
Yet my pal who does cosmetology work just broke the FaceID using a mannequin head with similar facial structure (and blinking eyes) which had been warmed up with a hair dryer.
Not very fucking complex if it's that easily bypassed.
That's why those of us in lapidary circles on FB and other places tend to get our rubies and sapphires from people that do the mining themselves. Well, I mine my own, since you can find ruby and sapphire in California.
Actually, as I look for cdreimer, there is a clearly-registered website with that name. It appears to belong to one actual C.D. Reimer. Since the account here was used for defamation, and one could infer the accounts were linked (by the copying of the under-picture bio section on the site straight to slashdot) copyright violations were committed. So, no, the DMCA was an actual appropriate application that time.
I have had many similar experiences with my old LED business and pop-up Chinese clone sites and using the DMCA to shut them down.
The game company gave explicit license to everyone to stream game play and monetize it, and made no mention on that page of any limitations.
Thus, PDP owned copyright to that video, as a unique public performance, by implicit license from the game company. The DMCA takedown is false and thus actionable.
PDP should be smart and sue the ever living fuck out of the game company.
"creimer has used the same tactics here on Slashdot"
The Fine Print: The following comments are owned by whoever posted them. We are not responsible for them in any way.
Which means he has every right to utilize DMCA to have an account removed, by Slashdot's own fucking admission.
Please try better methods of character assassination when the evidence against said assassination of character lies at the top of every fucking comments section on this site.
"You get instant payment which you can cash out into local currency, Kraken charges maybe $10 for a wire transfer to my bank account."
I refuse to participate in the bullshit non-backed bullshit that is Bitcoin. At least the fiat dollar has some backing in the Petrodollar and the current slavery economy that the United States is shifting towards (look at all the sudden uprising of more unions and complaints about wage discrimination, etc.,) and before that was backed by hard tangible assets such as gold, which as all kinds of uses from making medicine to making electronics to making jewelry. Bitcoin has the backing of wasted electricity and resources and shitty coding and a shit community which can't agree to anything and splits up more than Hollywood celebrities, and has no wide diversity of uses. It's just a repeat failure of 70s technology and ideas (permissionless and distributed databases,) this time it's worked it's stupid ass into the economy instead of just regular database usage.
Cash in hand, direct bank-to-bank wire from their actual account, maybe at worst PayPal. I won't accept any other option. No cheque, no credit card, no gift card, nada.
I might accept marijuana if it is of acceptable quality and potency.

"Walmart has pretty cheap groceries"
Son, you don't know a fucking thing if you think WalMart has cheap groceries.
Lemme tell you about Maxi Foods, where you can get 6 pounds of onions for $0.99. Asparagus is $1.99 a pound. A 10 pound sack of potatoes is barely a buck.

You'd better probably your ass into a mental health facility if your grammar and spelling is this bad.
"What is that last sentence referring to?"
Non-American detected. Typical of Anon COWARDS.
"What about the fact that all this is unnecessary if you put a secured, padlocked cool box (possibly even one with active cooling) outside your door"
Great, something else I need to bolt down and secure so nobody tries stealing it or from it.
Do you bother thinking before opening your mouth? Do you even live in a semi-urban area?
Answer is obviously "no" otherwise you'd have not made such a stupid fucking comment.
"Does everyone have 360 degree surveillance in every room of their house now?"
As quickly as you idiots are allowing the rest of the population to willingly surrender their rights with camera in everything and everywhere by doing nothing to educate the populace.....
"The whole idea a completely irrational paranoia"
Spoken like an idiot that has never hired a maid service.
Please, come back when you've actually tried these services and have been either ripped off or had criminal acts performed upon you before opening your mouth again.
My passphrase SUPPOSEDLY would take a few billion years to crack.
It took less than 20 minutes for a server farm to crack my password.
Try again when you aren't 30 years behind the times in terms of technology.
Son, your understanding is laughed at by todays technology.
Zoom lenses are for distance. You mean macro lens.
"The false positive for Face ID is one in 1 million."
So still less secure than a Forever Lock.
"It is a lot more complex than a basic 2d photo recognition."
Yet my pal who does cosmetology work just broke the FaceID using a mannequin head with similar facial structure (and blinking eyes) which had been warmed up with a hair dryer.

Facial unlock was available on old Compaq desktops powered by an overclocked 180MHz Evergreen processor back when Windows 98 was still a thing.

Apple has become exactly what Jobs originally did not like.

" there are no native valuable Irish Gemstones."
Bullshit. Aquamarine is found in Ireland. Gem-quality Fluorite is found there. Opal is found there. Amethyst is found there. Topaz is found there.
A contract cannot supercede or violate the law. Thus the DMCA trumps the irrevocable and perpetual sections of the agreement.
Take your ass back to school and learn some basic contract law.
Get diversely fucked.
"So which particular COPYRIGHT was infringed, thus justifying the takedown?"
The Fine Print: The following comments are owned by whoever posted them. We are not responsible for them in any way.
That means at any fucking time I can tell Slashdot via DMCA to stop spreading my posts and they have to comply because it is a legal fucking order.
Take your ignorant and ill-educated ass the fuck back to school.
As someone who has successfully utilized the DMCA to defend my websites, no, you are the incorrect party.
The grade-A (it's a hyphenated term you dipshit) idiot here is you with your lacking critical thinking skills.

I most certainly can.

"that bans left leaning users"
I haven't been banned yet and I was there almost since day number one. Try again when you can prove your words.
