If they'd just app apps instead of spending on LUDDITE ads they would be getting 100% return from app appers app apping their apps. APPS!
I agree, it is all about payments for added value, like freemium.
If I'm buying stuff from an online store, there is not really much value for a middle-man to add. I'd much rather the store itself just have a searchable catalog.
Absolute nonsense, you're just inventing your own capitalization rules and demanding that they be recognized. I might as well just demand that you when you abbreviate "scotch whiskey" as "scotch" that you place an apostrophe at the end to mark the missing word.
Always remember when you're pretending to present a rule to cite which English style guide recommended it.
Sadly, very few people are interested in this and seem to believe that everything external to them is responsible for altering their mental state.
These are lessons that often can only be understood after they are learned, and so there is no known effective way to teach it other than to motivated students who already do understand part of it.
It is like asking chimps to start their education earlier so that they might learn to read. How would they learn to value reading enough to focus on the lessons?
Serotonin levels are only temporarily altered, and they return to the prior balance before the medicine even becomes effective. That is totally debunked as the mechanism. The mechanism is unknown, and that is widely known.
Please stop repeating zombie pharma industry talking points from the past that died decades ago!
If we use only objective measurements and totally ignore the subjective experience then it is easy to say that you were much improved as a zombie.
Scary shit, IMO. Great advice with cognitive therapy, because regardless of it is measured to be "effective" it is still useful and doesn't have negative side effects. (when administered correctly, of course) That said, it isn't a "cure" and that is way over-selling it.
Too bad that the cause of action is unknown and the hypothesis that the mechanism of action involves changing the serotonin levels are completely debunked.
Placebos do work, I know it is popular on slashdot to misunderstand the placebo effect and to claim that they're useless, but actually it is a known thing you can look up on the interwebs.
When somebody says it is a placebo, they said that it works; that much should be obvious! However, if it has side effects, those might not be necessary in order to gain the same benefits. Placebos are the easiest class of medicine to reformulate.
Palestinians are also Semites. Why are you trying to marginalize them and lie about their cultural background? Is it politically inconvenient for Israel to admit that both were promised separate lands, and Israel occupies much of Philistine, and all of Judea, in addition to Israel? Everybody involved are Semites. Anti-Semitism is a totally different problem that doesn't even share a border with the political and cultural issues plaguing the Holy Land.
If you hate somebody, and you're not a disgusting bigot, and the person you hate is religious, you're not even talking about their religion and nobody listening to your declaration of hatred would even learn what religion the person is because it wouldn't have had any reason to come up.
You're just an anti-Semite, there is no checkbox loophole where you still get to be a decent person. You're just a despicable bigot who takes time to set up red herrings and strawmen as bigot shelters.
I use Privacy Badger and noscript instead because I want to filter out unwanted things I didn't ask to participate in, I don't want to just punish myself by downgrading my experience.
I always stayed with firefox, but also I use Privacy Badger for the cookies part.
It is very rare that a site won't work, but the truly intransigent ones tend to be surprisingly frivolous; certainly none of the important sites I use have any problem with me maintaining my privacy.
The difference in interface efficiency alone is truly shocking on the rare occasion that I use a "stock" computer.
It is your just punishment for allowing others to decide when a video is permitted to play on your screen.
Some people choose their own reality. Some people allow unseen others to select a lame reality for them, and then just accept it because they already have it.
Oh, yeah? In 5th grade I held the high score on a popular video game in a popular arcade for 3 weeks until some college kid got mad and reset the machine.
I dunno, what sort of person would try to remember people who didn't do anything other than start a business and make money? Not me! We have local guys like that in my town, too, they're not really doing anything that has meaning to people not involved in their business or their family.
I know who Bill Gates is because he wrote a version of BASIC and pushed spreadsheet technology forwards. He also killed some companies that made software I used to use.
Whoever those google business people are, they don't really tell us who the people who invented the technology they just bought was, so they don't leave any sort of footprint in that arena. All they have to be known by is their business practices, which regardless if you like them or not, they'll be different later so you can't trust it.
Actually, no, when somebody explains that there are use cases with different considerations, you can't just disagree and have any chance to be right. Disagreeing just shows you don't comprehend the words he used. And they were simple words. But you thought you had a magical brain that can see other people's use cases better than they can see them, even if all you know is that it involved FTP! Durrrrrrrrrrrr
They were actually a bit open about that at the time; it was about 10 years ago. They had two main people who founded it; the "do no evil" stuff was the one who used to be in charge. Then he handed it all over to the other guy who was greedier, and the system switched to "normal corporate `ethics.'"
It always seemed obvious, even during the cold war; it is perfectly safe to buy Russian vodka, but don't buy Russian locks, you're not the only one with a key.

It doesn't mean that I personally hate Jews.
It does, it just also means you're not confident enough to admit it even when you've already made it obvious.
That you can't comprehend a point as simple as this one is truly an astounding accomplishment, congratulations!
It is reasonable to assume that all the cookie blockers have a whitelist.
Who'd want an integrated development environment on their phone, for example?
Well, I do have emacs on my wifi phablet, does that count?
I disable permanent cookies.

Talk about racist, all you know is the glass was made in Scotland and you're already presuming it can only be used for whiskey!
Scottish people do also drink water, tea, and other beverages.
Odd, I buy stuff frequently and I never see ads. I wonder why that is?
It isn't about the data collection, because I often use a credit card!
It may have a lot more to do with where Apple makes their money, who their biggest competitor is, and how their competitor makes their money.
Maybe more likely than your pipe dream that the companies with high profit margins make decisions that benefit customers.

Here is another explanation: things we don't know are unknown, and not knowing the answer doesn't prove it is something silly you can just daydream.
