Sure, just not many 8 year olds are customers. It's teenagers.

It's not stupid if chaos and destruction are the goals. It's only evil.
To maggots anyone not on their party line is wrong. Too bad that party line is an unprotected signal chat.
You were mad that efforts were being made to make up for prejudicial treatment that you have benefited from and now you want to cry about it here and get other people to comisserate with you over it. You proved exactly how necessary such efforts are with your crybaby reaction.
I have at least one persistent moderation troll. The usual one mods down three in a row without concern for appearances because he knows that slashdot protects anyone who increases post count
Turns out current usage != etymology (and no, a stereotypical luddite is not the same as a historical Luddite).
By all means, celebrate ignorance. I note you skipped over the #1 definition. Typical coward shit. You're afraid of knowledge.
I'd encourage Ring to find ways to close the window of access even more.
Google stores more data about users' activities than Ring could ever dream of. It's literally the basis of its primary business. Throw some more stones, though.
Your experience is literally irrelevant because it doesn't prove a negative and it doesn't speak to anyone else's experience.
Fox News is not regulated by the FCC, it's a cable channel.
Fox also broadcasts. It does matter. As you say, Fox Broadcasting! The one thing supported the other. They pretended not to operate as a network in their early years so they wouldn't be subject to requirements of networks, but they were only just under the line. I don't know where this idea that Fox is not a broadcasting network came from except possibly for that, but it absolutely is and was one and that network supported their cable network. The two are effectively one thing, that's why they called them both Fox.
Weird response. He's got it nailed. The inequity of climate change matters and the only reason Americans don't want to hear about it is that we've created both the climate change and the inequity, usually at gunpoint.
If your reasoning is the only reason, then there's 70million fucking stupid people in the USA.
You forgot to count the eligible nonvoters. They are also fucking stupid.
The difference here is that Amazon never sells customer data. Ever.
"In some instances, we may share your personal information with third parties." further lol I'm sure they are sharing that data just out of a sense of fairness!
You're a trivially deluded tool.
You can pull in frameworks in C just as easily as in any other language. And since now we're using Qt or GTK+ instead of Xaw, Unix apps are bigger. But that's true regardless of language. Plus screen resolution is vastly higher than it used to be. Even phones now commonly have more pixels than even high end workstations used to. Looks like Android devs have been using uncompressed bitmaps out of ignorance, shock amazement.
I've been using them here for years but I hardly ever use them anywhere else. Slashdot may not support a lot of characters people want to use but it does support em and en dashes via HTML entities.
The stereotypical luddite wants all people to benefit from advances in technology.
Before you use a word, look it up.
Real Programmers don't write in PL/I. PL/I is for programmers who can't decide whether to write in COBOL or FORTRAN.
