Medium.com: Because Small.com and Large.com don't exist.

I see it as closer to "I wear a bullet-resistant vest that is immune to the particular models of bullet included in the most common black market ammo kits." In practice, do more intrusions use vulnerabilities whose existing patches an administrator just failed to apply or vulnerabilities for which a patch does not yet exist?

That's the defense that early video game cloners used, but courts ended up ruling that the copyright in a video game relates to those portions of the program's audiovisual output that are constant across runs.

I'm no lawyer, but I speculate that the legal theory is that advertisements are incorporated into the site's "collective work" under license from the advertisers.

Hobbits don't wear shoon (or even shoes) for a different reason: thicker skin on the soles and hair on the rest of the feet. But wouldn't they get infected going barefoot all the time?

You have now. It's called Rhinitis medicamentosa or rebound congestion.

You may be having an XY problem. You say you want Sudafed but what you most likely want is a decongested nose. I'm no physician, so I'll just tell you what worked for me: I switched from pseudoephedrine tablets to oxymetazoline nasal spray. Brands include Afrin, Sudafed OM, and store brands. To avoid dependency, I use it in one nostril in the morning and the other at night.

It happened a century ago.

Fun fact: Spelt (Triticum aestivum spelta) is a subspecies of wheat that has become more popular over the past couple decades for needing fewer fertilizers than common wheat. Thus "spelled" has come to be spelled "spelled" to distinguish it from spelt.

And America south of 49 degrees north latitude has been not an English colony for nearly 240 years.

Widespread paywalls would put even atypical people like me who want to see the opposing viewpoints into a bubble because opposing viewpoints would cost substantially more.

"Not my problem" is a cop-out. I can probably come up with a couple scenarios where it would reasonably become your problem. If somebody desires your opinion about the text of a particular document, but the site hosting the document has gone subscription because off-site ads, the fact that you cannot view the document is your problem. Or if somebody desires your opinion about an interactive document that has been published through a web application, but the scripts powering the document's interactivity happen not to have been vetted by a third party that you already trust, the fact that you can see only the minimal noninteractive fallback version is your problem.

And part of this philosophy includes identifying which threats are worthy of your effort.

Even if you pay through Australia's BPAY system instead of through a utility's website, you're still buying the product (electric power) of a utility that advertised on the Internet.

Would you prefer to have to reload the whole comment page when you open or close a subtree? Sending only the changes between one state of an application and the next after each action reduces total data transfer compared to re-sending the whole state for every action. If you pay per bit for your last mile to the Internet, which is typical of mobile ISPs, this saves you money. The tradeoff is that doing so requires client-side scripting.

YaCy looks interesting. But after reading about it, I thought of something: Sleazy site owners could spam YaCy by inserting pages under a particular word that do not actually contain that word. To counter this, YaCy's anti-spam measure downloads all pages that appear on each search results page. But this is slow and costs a lot of bandwidth, especially over a metered last mile such as satellite or cellular, and it discloses to the web site operator that one of its pages has appeared in someone's YaCy results.

Ctrl+F in a directory page searches only the titles of entire sites, not the titles of documents/pages within a site, and certainly not text within the documents on each site.
