If everybody torrents then the people making the content make no money. If they make no money then they stop making content. If there is no content then there is nothing to torrent.

Problem with VPNs and why I quit using them is that their speed is absolute garbage. I’m talking taking my 50Mb connection down to less than 20. I tried using a VPN simply to get around MLB’s blackout rules and singing up for the MLB package that’s like $10 a month. It was too slow to stream it at anything that didn’t…

You do realize they have those restrictions because of licensing agreements that people have, you know, paid for. I doubt LH would publish articles as to how you could get around paying musicians for their content by hacking into Spotify’s premium service somehow.

whatever you wish??? lol. what kind of ? is that? lol!

quit altogether years ago, I might have a glass of wine at a special occasion about once a year or something but haven’t missed it at all....just doesn’t agree with me much and if I party I hate the fact I paid 50-100 for a hangover and wasted two days after nursing it. ugh. don’t miss those days a bit.

It really does depend on what you want to do. But honestly, learning how to code is more important than learning a specific language. Any goomba can be a programmer, but companies want software engineers. They need people who can generate testable (and unit tested), extensible, self-documenting code quickly and…

Depends on the business, at work, Healthcare company, it’s all Java and it’s varied subsets and HTML

IMDB has pretty good crowd-sourced parental info too.

I get acid reflex sometimes - nothing as severe as what you’re describing - and find eating straight up raw mint leaves from the produce section can kill it. Might be something to try ifyou haven’t already. It has the bonus effect of making your breath and bo smell better.

From my experience & others, I disagree with 1 & 2. Job posters might not like it, but the shotgun approach is the only thing that seems to work in the new economy (don’t kid yourselves, posters are playing the numbers game too).

There’s really never an excuse for sending in an incomplete application if you actually want the job, but I have to tell you that I wouldn’t have my current job if I hadn’t sent in my materials within 24 hours. My boss told me she had to cut it off after less than two days because she’d gotten way too many applicants…

Behaviors that are life-threatening or dangerous for society should not be accepted, but unquestioning obedience opens up a child to manipulation both as a child around older people, and as an adult. If they learn late the perils of being overly obedient, then they might shift over to cynicism, which is just as bad if…

··As mentioned before, it can be exhausting for parents. I had a difficult time balancing the energy in the room. That’s me not yelling back. Maybe your sisters think they’re protecting themselves. You can be another voice. Keep talking. Give another prospective. They may not respond but they’re probably listening.

You may already be doing this, but tell them that you’re worried about them. Tell them you love them and you don’t want them to get hurt. Give them specific examples of what has happened to other people in similar situations. Explain to them that you want them to stay home in the evenings because you are worried for…

Wow, that sounds like a tough situation. I hope it gets better for you and your family. And, yes, there are certain kinds of disobedience that are not okay.

Look, unless Youtube Red allows you to ignore Youtube’s bullshit copyright policies and upload whatever the fuck kind of videos or music you want without fear of it getting flagged and taken down, it’s a gigantic waste of money.

Also, I don’t think that freaking Google needs endorsements from (no offense) tiny little Lifehacker. So you are in the clear, as far as I’m concerned.

I agree with this. I’d rather fill out a ten-page survey at the beginning of the year: “These are the things I’m looking to buy this year, this is what I’m interested in, etc.” Stuff I WANT, not stuff I “didn’t know I wanted until someone shoved it in my face.”

I disagree about not clicking being equal to adblocking. It is the responsibility of the advertiser to make an ad interesting enough to get a click. The webpage is only responsible for delivering the ad to your eyeballs. They get money from the click, but only to make sure they actually show it somewhere visibly.

Yeah, and I typed too fast myself, got the quote wrong in my example, added the word cells where it didn’t belong, People in glass houses...
