Except that this isn't sports and they tell us that all humans will die if they continue like they do.

If their scare was honest, they would stop.

What would be a way to solve these harassment issues?

Nice cherry you picked there. If you would leave a meaningful comment, I would be happy to talk.

I stand by my words. Her videos are full of lies. They are on a Columbine or Jack Thomson level of "objectivity". Someone please prove me wrong about Hitman otherwise.

Sorry for trying to help?! I did not realise that offering advice from personal experience of receiving online death threats (and what I thought was common professional advice from police and law enforcement) was sexist. No more sympathy from me.

Aren't most kindergarden workers female? Would there be no law enforcement if the president was female? I do not see any hint of the sexism you describe here.

> Why do people keep saying it's fairly difficult to win the lottery, when a random person won it, even on their first time playing.

You can't take one anecdote and extrapolate from that.

No vote manipulation but you used another new account 'RainSunshine' to talk sugar about yourself? That was a dumb move.

I would be all over this for hobby projects if it was FOSS. Does someone know similar alternatives?

There are users here who do some really fine commenting. But they got "deaded" for one reason or another. I would love to see buzzfeed and similar sites punished for their wrongdoings even if sometimes they might provide something good. The worse clearly overweighs the good to me.

It's basically a huge collection of documents, mostly scientific with a FOSS codebase for serving. It comes with metadata. It is mirrored a lot thanks to bring completely open. It originated in Russia and has had quite the history. It is a great step into the direction how documents (especially scientific) should be available to anyone in bulk without restrictions.

I would guess that they do it similarly to private trackers. Each user gets a unique and secret ID which is transmitted when announcing. The tracker then decides if the user is allowed to get the swarm details.
