At least he was caught before he died of old age. Better late justice than no justice. Also, the headline should read “Pastor… CONFESSED to her murder”
Oh no, you stumbled out of your far right jerk off circle. It’s OK, someone will lead you back soon so you don’t get further lost and realize your brain has been rotting.
Their punishment is, as decided by law, being separated from society, family, friends, their hobbies and comfort while still getting to live d dignified human beings.
Not everyone in prison is a murderer or rapist, and even many of those get reformed. So please think of that before you go and approve of their exploitation.
You’re right and wrong. For nonviolent offenses you’re right. For offenses where there actually isn’t a victim (drugs, prostitution, etc) you’re definitely right. But for violent offenders, rapists, murderers, chomos, I don’t agree. I don’t want them near me and honestly I don’t care to rehabilitate them. If they’re guilty beyond a doubt, for those crimes, might be better to take them behind the chemical shed and put a bullet in their head. But, we can be convinced of guilt and be wrong, so jail is a good compromise.
Do yoy even know how temperature for buoys is measured? Its measured at 10 feet deep. Have you ever swam to the bottom of the pool and felt it colder? Thats because it is.
If it really was 100 degrees some 3.5m below sea level, then the surface would be way hotter due to sun exposure/radiation. My guess would be basically too hot to touch.
Okay. You can provide article after article but unless you can help me understand why temperatures 10 feet below the ocean can show near scalding levels i dont care to entertain your rebuttals. Really, this is your opportunity to help me understand.
So i went and looked for it myself since you didnt want to. I found that bouys measure the epipelagical zone which has a usual and average temperature due to several factors (mainly wind and mixing currents). Temperatures usually have a steep decline in temperature when it reaches the thermocline which is what i was referring to earlier. This thermocline actually drops in the summer meaning the epilagical zone has more depth but is generally already lower in costal areas. Here, its not unusual for waters to be between 90F to 104F in the summer. If you want to know more, just google “Surface Sea Temperature In-Situ Methodology”.
So there i didnt your homework for you and i proved myself wrong. Its likely not an error but a usual occurance(maybe even a bit higher than normal).
I tried to open the wired link and got a 404, then tried again and got a 504, then tried again and got a 503.
I then opened the lifehacker link, and it opened fine. The content of that link gives me the impression Ghostery may have had ties to ad companies. At the bottom of the article they link to Mashable as their source here:
Since the Wired article seems to be the only one I can't open, I guess it is unable to defend itself beyond the title of the article, which says that (1) Ghostery is now open source and (2) Ghostery has a new business model. Based on what I can see, it would appear to me as though Ghostery was actually owned/managed by Evidon. My interpretation of that would have to be that their OLD business model included selling information to advertisers. I tried to go to evidon.com but it was blocked by my intentional DNS poisoning (a sign that it is a scummy domain). After temporarily changing my DNS resolver to one of the servers hosted by
Which is clearly a business that is designed to help businesses monetize web services while staying just barely legal and maximize the amount of data a marketer can pull from people without getting in shit for not actually getting consent from them.
So, when you say
"It is not, and never has been, in league with ad companies."
Do you mean I have imagined all of the above? Because it sounds pretty shady to me that a company affiliated with Evidon and Crownpeak would be making a product line like the ones at Ghostery.
Sigh... now that I am home I am able to open the Wired article. The second link is to a vice.com article which says:
"Ghostery 6.0 is a from-the-ground-up re-imagining of how to design a privacy-enhancing browser extension so that its features are more easily accessible to a mainstream audience."
In other words, this is NOT their old version, and it says nothing about any previous versions, ownership, management, or financing of the product. The fourth link in the article is to another Wired article:
"Ghostery, another popular ad blocker, operates under a different model. As a user, you don't see ads and aren't tracked by pesky data trackers. The company, however, makes money by collecting anonymized data on what those trackers pick up. It repackages that data and resells it to publishers, websites, and other companies it says can use the information to help improve the speed, privacy, and performance of their sites."
Followed by a footnote that says:
"UPDATE 3:47 PM ET 03/02/16: This story has been updated to accurately reflect that Ghostery does not collect the same data that third-party trackers collect, but rather collects and sells data about the trackers themselves."
I have a hard time not seeing this as:
"Ghostery was getting a shitty reputation because people did not understand that they were selling information about stooges to other stooges. Their solution was to make a dramatic shift in their business model in hopes that they could win back privacy points."
When it comes to digital privacy, I am not big on second chances. If Meta says they are going to opensource some portion of their crap it doesn't win them any points with me and I won't be trusting them with any digital data. Whatever anyone else's opinion may be, there is plenty there to keep me from trusting Ghostery, opensource or not.
I'm also not a fan of Wikipedia [not a primary source] but even they have this:
@Xylight Firefox v2.0.20 in 2008 was the last "good" version. Since then it has been awesome bar, pocket, forced VPN ads, ftp support, PAC support, XUL bombing, and phone calls home. I use Librewolf, and while it is tolerable it is still tired to a garbage browser. :-(
I don’t know what “Firefox” you’re talking about. None of this is an issue at all (except the anonymous telemetry that you can disable easily). Firefox has actually surpassed Google in speed in its latest update. Let’s say, you were right, does that justify using that spyware chrome? I’m willing to compromise on things so I don’t support a monopoly. We have to get out of our comfort zone a bit if we really care.
In previous versions you could search your about:config on the "value" field, this is no longer possible. Searching for https:// and http:// would give you a list of numerous URLs, most of which are under Mozilla's own domains. Some might argue that things like updates are necessary to ensure a secure browser. Others might argue that they have run very outdated browsers without problems for years, and that combined with forced updates and the Maintenance Service, the log files generated produce a not-insignificant amount of information about users.
Suggesting using an decades old and known exploitable browser because “well I never got hacked” is like saying vaccines are unnecessary because “well I never got sick”
I love even crazy tech nerds say this shit. 100mbps is more than enough for the vast majority of families. Unless you constantly have 5 or 6 streams running concurrently you’ll never use more than that outside of the occasional video game download.
It’s not though. You’re taking marketing claims at face value, assuming the customer consistently sees that bandwidth with few to no glitches and low latency. You’re assuming bandwidth isn’t sucked down by ads and trackers. Doing the math in ideal numbers makes it look sufficient, but actually using it highlights that it’s not
I’ve lived on 100mbps quite easily for many years. I have gbps available and choose to save the $10. You are grossly exaggerating. Comcast and FiOS have been reliable well over 10 years now.
Not a backdoor. A backdoor is when there’s a secret key or method that’s deliberately builtin to sidestep the encryption.
Instead, they created an encryption algorithm that only used 32 bits for the cypher key. That was a design choice to comply with the Arms Export Control Act back when encryption was considered a munition. This is roughly equivalent to putting a really crappy lock on your front door. Anyone with the proper skillset can get past it.
The real problems are:
They used a proprietary encryption algorithm: TEA1. This is highly frowned upon because an algorithm needs to be tested repeatedly by experts in the field to prove its worth. Or as they say, don’t roll your own because you WILL mess up.
The hid the algorithm from scrutiny using a non-disclosure agreement. This was basically security through obscurity. There were people that knew it was broken but let it fly under the radar.
They continued to use a broken algorithm when it should have been deprecated over 20 years ago then left out of future products.
It’s all implemented on a bunch of hardware that can’t easily be upgraded.
