The risk is that some unknown hacker discovered this vulnerability and abused it before the researchers discovered and reported it. It sounds like the company has confirmed that didn’t happen, but they aren’t 100% trustworthy in that regard, simply because they might have missed something.
The idea of it being numbered is that you are given your number when you vote to check against later, but nobody else is given that number so they can’t tie the vote to you.
Had to look up what a ute was, for any Americans it’s a pickup truck. And I was going to say the exact same thing, judging people for having a spotless pickup.
Looks like it’s not an issue fortunately.
Aida said the new material is as strong as petroleum-based plastics but breaks down into its original components when exposed to salt. Those components can then be further processed by naturally occurring bacteria, thereby avoiding generating microplastics that can harm aquatic life and enter the food chain.
That whole thing just sounds like a much more stupid version of ERIC, which notably Louisiana withdrew from a few years ago.
Hooray, I’m glad my thought process for initial steps was correct. If you don’t mind me asking, my thought process for the recommendation of canvasing as opposed to something like flyers is that doing so would make you and your efforts come across as more human and genuine, especially if part of the pitch was that Comcast was astroturfing, do you know if that’s something that actually works?
I don’t have any experience doing this, so take everything I say with a grain of salt, but my first step would be to collect information on how similar projects have turned out in the past, in terms of cost and adoption, as well as how much money Comcast is spending to counter this effort and what kinds of services they offer in the area at different price points. Then see if there are any people in the community that agree with you on the deployment of municipal internet who could be convinced to make the effort to assist you with convincing the rest of the community. With that information and those people, organize a canvasing effort, as in go door to door and actually talk to people about their stance on the matter. I would focus on that “locally owned and operated” argument, as well as the fact that if Comcast is spending money trying to prevent this they surely must be expecting to earn even more money from not having any competition in the area, so they can get away with higher prices and worse service.
I always assumed it stood for “thank goodness it’s fridays” honestly.
I mean, the reason why polyandry is so much less common is that nine months is much longer than half an hour, or at least that’s the most obvious reason.
The most effective piece of propaganda in history.
Speaking as someone who didn’t get a phone until 16 or 17, I would say try to figure out what kids his age are using to communicate with each other and get him a device that allows him to participate in that. At the same time, try to educate yourself on what parental controls are available, and at least try to make an effort to educate them on computer and internet literacy, stuff like how to recognize and not engage with clickbait and to not overshare information where it can be seen by strangers.
Nope, it was so they could take the 30% cut of every penny that is spent on one of their platforms, and also so that it would be extremely inconvenient to leave their ecosystem since doing so would mean leaving behind most of your data.
I’ve always said if money can’t buy happiness then what’s the point in having it.
How do you think Tucker Carlson avoided getting sued off the air for as long as he did?
Copyright protects already executed ideas, stripping that protection down to less than a decade would be completely unhelpful.
I’m going to second this, the linked video explains a lot of the controversy really well.
Ok, why is there an RSS feed button is my question.
Sounds like you need glasses to me bro.
Something being a joke means it’s [insert negative attribute] enough to be laughable, but it being a bad joke mean it’s [insert negative attribute] but not enough to be funny.
