If Google actually cared whether actual people were seeing their ads or not, they would have shut down all the various 5 minute craft and knock off channels years ago. There's basically an entire bot network of tens of thousands of accounts that operate out of Malaysia / Philippines that do nothing but copy, follow, and "watch" each others' videos for the ad revenue. Of course, if they ever did that, they would have to admit that their advertising numbers are incredibly overinflated, easily hijacked with minimal effort, and have no guarantee that any person would actually be watching them, and from there say goodbye to the people actually buying ads.

As opposed to the google search optimized sites that contain no information and exist only to serve ads, or just google's own ads?

Subject line says most of it. The new interface is awful, and if you check out the firefox reddit or their official support forums, they seem completely oblivious to everyone complaining about it. Everything takes up too much space, they've brought in less distinction and readability on tabs, and they continue to remove functionality that's been in for ages. On the rare occasion they actually respond to why something was removed, they say it was due to low usage. Gee, maybe taking something away from a drop down menu and hiding it in the about:config with a warning about how toggling those things might screw up firefox might scare most people away from using it? Or even knowing it's there in the first place? I went back to their old extended support release. Everything from 91 and on is just awful from a UI perspective. The only reason I even use firefox over chrome is because I can't login to gmail without chrome assuming I want google to know everything I do on the internet.

Good luck stopping a pi hole.

I'd be looking at a long time in jail.

How many domestic problems are the direct result of foreign propaganda?

Training. Hundreds of 737M flights each day in the states, not one crash or report of an issue. Both crashes happened in third world countries. That's not a coincidence.

I guess we'll find out what happens when you replace crazy with evil.

No. Males have more mutations because they produce exponentially more sex cells, leading to more chances for mutation. That's by far the most driving force behind mutation rates.

Yes, and it worked so well for American auto manufacturers. Detroit is so much better of a slum than Bangladesh!

While I agree that for simple use Open Office is certainly up to the task, it's become so filled with bloat and poorly optimized code that it's extremely slow to load regardless of machine. Their file translation could also use some work, as attempting to load an OO file saved as a word document can lead to some very funky documents.

Which will last exactly as long as it isn't profitable to make a virus for it. If everyone swapped to a certain distro of Linux, I'd be willing to bet you'd have major problems within a week.

Careful, overdosing can lead to both explosive diarrhea and decompression.

Have you had vegemite? Whole grain breads? Congratulations, you've had brewing by-products. Brewing by-products includes things like yeast cakes which are extremely high in a wide variety of vitamins, some of which are difficult to obtain in other feeds outside of soy (which is getting more and more expensive). The whole grains still contain proteins and carbohydrates, which means they're great animal feed and can be used in whole grain products. I'm not aware that there's ever been any sort of food poisoning or scare traced back to spent grains, and a brief google search reveals none. On top of that, if you're doing something to your grains that makes them poisonous, odds are your beer isn't safe for consumption, either. There really is no need for the FDA to even look into this, as it's effectively been done for centuries with no problems.

...if only your life is on the line, and not, say, the lives of millions of others all the way down to their great great grand children. Innovation at the cost of safety is great in some fields. After all, the only one dieing is the idiot who blew themself up. But when you accidentally start a meltdown because your "fun" design didn't include all the safety gear you thought it did, I don't have any complaints for having more safety than innovation.
