Imgur was originally offered as a "gift" to Digg users, and when it didn't gain traction there MrGrimm re-branded it as a "gift" to Redditors.

There's really no need to use both Privacy Badger and Disconnect as they both do pretty much the same thing. I'd ditch them both and just use uBlock Origin with the "Privacy" filter lists enabled.

They claim to only sell your data if you opt-in to something called "GhostRank." [1]. It's proprietary software so there's no way to actually confirm that though. There's really no reason for privacy conscious indiv

Hard to have sympathy for people who install closed-source applications with inappropriate permissions and get burned by it. Still, the developer is an idiot for doing it and should not be trusted.

Do you have any plans to support Google Drive or other cloud services?

I don't understand the people commenting that YouTube is not a proper archival tool. Obviously. They're not deleting their own copies of these films, they're just making them available to the public in an easy to use manner.

Do you have any plans to add RSS feeds?

I'm glad it's gone since it forced me to look for better alternatives. I tried pretty much all of them, but settled on BazQux Reader. $10 a year for a vastly superior service is well worth it.

Maybe it was the fact that he repeatedly tested positive for explosive residue? But lets ignore that little piece of information because it doesn't conform to the anti-TSA circle jerk that is this thread.

If you find that it feels like work to go through your RSS feeds, then you're doing it wrong. Plain and simple. Your whole argument for why RSS readers are bad seems to consist of "I have too many feeds", and "I have a l

Then tell your government to either provide it to the public themselves, or pay someone else to provide it to the public. Either way, funding one half of something and then demanding the rest is ridiculous.

Since you seem to have all the solutions to JStor's woes, maybe you should apply for a spot on the board of directors. I'm sure they've never even thought of using volunteers, or accepting donations. With you on board, they&#

"...victimless crime of providing free access to publicly funded research" Sorry, I'm just curious, but how do you propose funding the scanning, organizing and hosting of this research? JStor is a non-profit that has spent to

Well, for one you're trying to compare a case that took place in New York with one that took place in Florida. If Zimmerman was tried in New York the case would've most likely had a different outcome. Florida has stand your ground

No. This is one of the dumbest posts I've seen on here. I'm not even going to get into the nitty gritty of why this post is stupid, because it should be self-evident to anyone with half a brain.

Very misleading. In fact, the author of this study is a behavioral neurologist, hence studying human behavior relating to diet drinks rather than diet drinks themselves. Drink as much diet soda as you like, if the rest of your diet is healt

This will never happen. There's no way in hell Germany jeopardizes their relationship with the US over Snowden. Not a chance.

Schaaf first posted about Imgur on Digg, and when it didn't gain traction there he posted it on Reddit. It was disingenuous of him to call it a "Gift to Reddit" in that post.
