Couldn't it also simply be because the Tik Tok users are a different category of people? Isn't TikTok mainly used by kids and teenagers who would never have heard of Tiananmen or Uyghurs, while Instagram may have a wider range of users?
(Just asking. I use neither of those and have no idea)
I'm in Europe, and I haven't seen a check for at least 20 years. I cannot even remember when it was, but probably in the nineties. So I'm surprised to learn that some countries still use them.
I had never heard of Pluto TV, but now I want to go see what it is. If only someone would post one of these forbidden links...
"sovereignty" ? The funny thing, which nobody seems to mention here, is that the USD is actually the real legal currency of El Salvador, since 2001:
The colón [...] was replaced by the United States dollar in 2001. And the reference: [26]
Ah, actually found it. The source is on Github: https://github.com/threema-ch/ linked from their page here: https://threema.ch/en/open-sou...
I don't think "homegrown" is the main reason. What makes it suitable is that it is open source and can be self-hosted on your own servers. Or so they claim, at least. I have not found their source code, but haven't searched for it much either.
Finally found it: https://goo.gl/maps/ozUMQKeZUG... or here with street view
I was curious and wanted to look it up on Google maps. But I can't find anything looking like it in the video when I go on 15th avenue in San Francisco. A search in Google maps for the "Army hospital" in SF that you mention doesn't turn up anything either for me.
According to the linked article, it does NOT work on previous versions. I have 2.4.38. And indeed, if I try the example from a tweet in the article:
curl "https://my.example.com/whatever/.%2e/.%2e/.%2e/.%2e/.%2e/.%2e/.%2e/etc/passwd"
I just get

Exactly what I wanted to write when I saw the headline. But you did it already hours ago...
I have vaguely tried to use it a few times, but was also annoyed by it's verbosity and general weirdness. If I need to do something on Windows that is too complex or unpractical for cmd.exe (which is most things, actually), I usually end up starting Ubuntu in WSL and doing it Bash or Perl.
It's not only because it works on every platform. It's also sometimes the best solution, particularly for huge files or directories. If you need to transfer a 150 GB. file over an unreliable link, FTP is the only protocol that will work. Even if the link breaks at 99% in the transfer, you can resume the transfer.
However, if you think it's that simple, easy and cost effective to have an open restroom in a city, have it. Let us know how you make out.
I don't know how easy it is or how much it costs, but any European city has plenty of public toilets. I never heard anyone suggest that they cost too much and should be suppressed.
In some places where they fear that too many junkies would use them, they use ultraviolet neon lights, so junkies go find another more convenient place for shooting.
The real problem is that apparently, unlike any other country in the world, US cities don't have public toilets. That is really weird! So, since humans do need to do these things, and these drivers seem to be polite enough to not just pee anywhere like in your backyard, well then you have all this story. Why don't US cities build public toilets like the rest of the world does?
they tricked US mobile operators into assigning a celebrity's phone number to a new SIM card
How does that work? I don't understand. Why would an operator assign an existing number to a new SIM card without verifying the person's identity?
I once had lost my phone. Had to go to the carrier's shop, and show my ID before they de-activated my old SIM and gave me a new one.
Is your job running? You'd better go catch it!
