This is an inflammatory, fact-free assertion.

How does one reconcile the idea that KiwiFarms is guilty of unspecified crimes that threaten lives and require emergency intervention, but also those alleged crimes aren't urgent enough that authorities would prosecute them? Is that entirely handwaved by calling the whole of U.S. law enforcement "transphobic / homophobic / white supremacist / right-wing"?

As this submission shows, cybercrime is prosecuted in the U.S.

If you want to claim that they do, then you should provide some evidence. Preferably not in the form of circular references to unsourced blog posts/articles.

Earlier versions of the article can still be found on the Wayback Machine. [1]

The original article called the alleged removal of that scene, "wimpish laziness."

Customers deserve access to all app providers.

It's worth noting that the @RomanRaminsky Twitter account it refers to was created today and all of its tweets are to throw barbs at the @bitsdigits account.

The same multi-tone scheme would generate more than 10,000 combinations for the family emoji. I wonder if it will ever be seriously considered.

That's a transparent attempt at concern trolling.

That sounds like a you problem. Also, you could say "the language" for the oh-so-many times(?) you apparently have to have to refer to it during a programming class.

Sure, but that's an issue with those websites, not the law. The law doesn't mandate to have a fullscreen modal that says "We value your privacy" with a big button that allows all cookies and myriad tiny buttons to disallow them individually.

If websites choose to sacrifice usability to be able to fingerprint users, that's on them.

I replaced mine with a static HTML page via a custom extension loaded in "Developer mode". It only takes a small JSON file for the manifest and the HTML page itself.

> The per capita rate is far lower than nearby Denmark or the Netherlands (if higher than the negligible rates in Norway and Finland).

According to this article, Sweden's per capita infection rate is far lower than Denmark and the Netherlands, and slightly higher than Norway and Finland. Compare that to population density: (numbers from Wikipedia)

    Netherlands: 521/km²
    Denmark:     137/km²
    Sweden:       25/km²
    Finland:      16/km²
    Norway:       14/km²

Not so coincidentally in my opinion, Sweden has a far lower population density than Denmark and the Netherlands, and slightly higher than Norway and Finland.

The patients in this study were not given a prescription of "go outside", they were given vitamin D3 as calcifediol.

The repository has 2,221 issues labeled as duplicates. If it takes the developers 30 seconds to close an issue, that's about 18 hours spent on handling bogus reports.

> If they didn't learn that at home [...]

And if someone comes from a dysfunctional home then tough luck. Be born in a better home next time.

Same thing for people who've been arrested for anything violent or threatening. Wouldn't want to be forced to interact with someone with a criminal past. They need to do some soul searching, which can be done from a prison cell.

If you have to imagine it then this is concern trolling.

As per the documentation, the library supports a subset of the PCRE syntax.

The letter does not even mention who the "large part of those we want to reach out to" refers to. The reader is left to figure out on their own whether these are legitimate grievances or power struggle.

Based on previous articles on the subject, the only brand name I associate with peanut allergy is Bamba.
