The Roman empire contained a lot of geographically segregated cultures. There was definitely a lot of influence on each other over time but 'when in Rome' didn't come out of nowhere.

Looks more like this is modeled after CTR (Correct the Record).

I knew this was somehow his fault. Thanks, trump. Looks like their crypto currency plans are going to be similar too...

Now try Google's sweetheart project https://www.ampproject.org/ or any amp-powered site. They contain this gem of a boilerplate hiding page content for 8 seconds or until whatever script is finally loaded that overrides it:

    body {
      animation: -amp-start 8s steps(1,end) 0s 1 normal both; 
    }
    @keyframes -amp-start {
      from { visibility: hidden; }
      to { visibility: visible; }
    }

Actually the opposite. In order to remember a dream you would have to wake up in the middle of it.

Sounds more like whale/s telling people to raise the price of a coin then dumping on them, rather than some kind of a 'collaborative' pump.

The article is talking about minutes after all so there's likely no outside buyers fast enough to react. Essentially most 'members of the community' will lose, but some lucky ones will be fast enough to dump before the whale for at least some cash.

I was talking more about the philosophical side of things, what with laws often being cultural norms in writing. So when you have multiple different norms things can get ugly and misunderstandings happen. In some countries they are looking into introducing multiple different laws to alleviate this.

Obviously a big part of crime comes out of desperation (hunger) which might be going down as you say.

When everyone agrees to a single set of cultural norms you don't need law enforcement to keep them.

There's perception for sure but crime rates are quite something else in US versus Australia or Japan.

Thank you, interesting.

>Up to this point, Opera was trialware and had to be purchased after the trial period ended. Version 5.0 (released in 2000) saw the end of this requirement. Instead, Opera became ad-sponsored, displaying advertisements to users who had not paid for it. Later versions of Opera gave the user the choice of seeing banner ads or targeted text advertisements from Google. With version 8.5 (released in 2005) the advertisements were removed entirely and primary financial support for the browser came through revenue from Google (which is by contract Opera's default search engine). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opera_(web_browser)

Has there ever been a desktop browser you could buy instead of using these ad supported/os bundled ones?

Maybe the standards and consequences have changed.

These types of shows were based on showing short clips of someone saying something, then cutting back to Stewart with a shocked face.

Reminds me of this comment on Hacker News: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11104428 The poster does not know Fry, the award winner or their relationship but the first thing that comes to mind is shock: How could he say such a thing when we can interpret it in the worst possible way.

We have gone way past 'innocent until proven guilty'. If it is in any way profitable to take you down (promotion/fame/facebook likes) avoid contact with anyone except in the most professional setting with a lot of witnesses.

And it does not even have to be malice: a simple misunderstanding will do. After 20 years of the Daily Show/Colbert/the Internet people are more primed than ever to notice a "problematic" look, comment or action. As you said, it gives people a rush.

There was also an attempt some years ago to rename them "crackers" but white people took over that one.

That looks amazing. Does any other company provide anything like this?

Looks like that is indeed the idea:

>it does give users an idea that, at some point or another, the site's security procedures were less than optimal.

We'll see if the big sites like Tumbler end up getting a warning. ;^)

It's not them funding it, if they even exist. The "flat-earther" part is just for the media exposure, which seems to work great.

If you are willing to launch yourself in a home made rocket the Internet will fund, as long as they can find you.

I think browser makers (or whoever it needs to be) should offer an option to save battery over a little bit of extra bandwidth. Maybe even make it the default.

So a lad knows a guy who says he is a fascist and also a Trump supporter, which means Trump is a fascist.

But what does that have to do with the FCC saying they will not use their authority on Internet service providers?

It is always interesting to think why the people living in gated communities are against border control.

Let's be honest it is less Trump and more the US media, which nearly all the foreign media parrots.

And even more interesting US image was first place after ruining so many countries in very recent history. But then again, it is all about the media.

Probably a byproduct to sell the idea to regulators. From another comment:

>Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc last month called the new standard “the Holy Grail” for the advertiser because it tells them who is watching and where.

Could Netflix also watermark video with the account watching on one of their cache boxes? If this idea becomes popular networks might request it.

Firefox forwards people to Google, Google guides people to installing Chrome. Hmm...

It's not like Mozilla had a choice but its still pretty funny when you think about it.

Two sips?! Impeach that rice and cherry pie eating koi-killer!

Then subsequently lost my focus. And as they say, the rest is history.

There is a rumor[1] even Rust has yet to get polymorphism right:

>I'm using nalgebra for math. I'll write a bit about it here, because I think it's relevant to Rust as whole. I'm not sure if I actually like it. It's so heavily templated that most of the error messages are impossible to understand, so I usually just double-check what I wrote and try to guess what's wrong. It's also where rust's documentation generator gets in trouble. Signal to noise ratio there is <10%. Not sure how to fix that. Anyway, my point is that maybe it's not always the best idea to write code as generic as possible.

Sarcasm? There's an 8 second animation until anything shows up. From the page's stylesheet:

  body {
    animation: -amp-start 8s steps(1,end) 0s 1 normal both;
  }

  @keyframes -amp-start {
    0% {
      visibility: hidden;
    }
    100% {
      visibility: visible;
    }
  }

Does everything taught in schools need to have immediate applicability?
