First of all yes. Secondly, it's the dumbest comparison anyone could possibly make. The difference with a porn website is as follows: - the age check on porn sites are notoriously dumb and useless, it's literally a meme. It was a

When you grow up to be an adult, you will understand that "objectivity"is a fiction. And an encyclopedia can absolutely do that and still present factual information based on actual research and facts. You know that just because a

I wonder if something called "context" and the socio-economic direction might have something to do with it. "I think we gotta hand it to Apartheid because schools were very slightly less worse" isn't the argument yo

Ah yes, America. The place where you get beaten to death for being a fascist asshole. It is well known. Famously.

You could make smart inferences based on past and very frequent occurrences. Or you could just say "there is no way the thing that constantly happens over and over again has happened once again , just no way". Staff cuts constant

Sorry but doubt. The whole "we have only received two emails" is a classic move of every company caught with their pants down. Considering Proton's history, they don't get the benefit of the doubt on this one. As for the

The only cloud storage that has a decent Linux client is Dropbox. Koofr is a decent cloud solution. Their client is horrendous across all platforms and lacks the most basic functionalities. You can argue OneDrive / GoogleDrive are semi

Here is the thing: Dropbox has no business being anything other than a cloud storage solution. Stop trying to do everything, it's too difficult and too expensive. Find what you're great at, and just improve it little by little. St

If "being a Chinese national" is an argument for "not trustworthy", I'm sorry but "being an American national" also becomes an argument for "not trustworthy". By about 400% more (and I'm bei

What the OP of that comment and yourself have missed is that Google is not trustworthy enough to give it permission, which the user you're responding to pretty much suggested as a solution (Google should be trustworthy to be given a on

How do you fix a bug you can't reproduce? It's a genuine question because I'm puzzled here. A very small number of users have this bug (and tbf, it's a really bad bug), and are unable to consistently reproduce it and it

Yes, we know. We are not saying "privatize the browser" because as you rightly pointed out, privatisation is a guaranteed route to the utmost corruption.

Damn, the culture they have bred and actively maintained is now going to be turned against them? It might end up making them more sympathetic people on the long term. They might realise the seriousness of what they have done to others.

Two countries can be fascist at the same time. And it's not like the UK and the US aren't known for exchanging the worst of the worst with each other all the time.
