Then share what you know.

I guess they found out liberal economical policies lead to unemployment, and the poor loathe unemployment.

By the way Corbyn is a very bad example. He's a walking train wreck.

I call it the San Francisco bubble. Fortunately, it's just a bubble. ;P

I did, because people here can get pretty salty and I didn't want to "bite the bait", but yes, now that you insist, I am one, and I am not ashamed of it.

The Venn diagram of the AltRight and 4chan's /pol/ board (the only board that would care about ((()))) is a circle inside of a circle so I don't think it will make any difference.

Secret? I don't think it's secret anymore. I follow lots of white nationalists and I have seen it for months already. This one was particularly funny, although I don't know if it's fake or not. https://i.imgur.com/A6aJYs7.png

What's also funny is how the article insists on ((())) being designed and engineered by evil masterminds to be unsearchable, when it's just incidental.

>'why' is the question everybody has and I hope you understand I don't want to talk too much about that

Grow up, maybe, Jos?

This sounds to me like the usual and continuous splits inside OSS communities, but Jesus, I do miss the days when you had a detailed explanation as soon as somebody leaked the IRC logs!

Yeah, I remember this. He's always taunting people about having jailbreaks and not sharing them.

This guy published an app that did jailbreak detection and some other stuff on the App Store, it was taken down, and has been rambling since then in a very very childish way about stuff like this: https://twitter.com/i0n1c/status/738286205708738560

Truth is--he knew what was going to happen, so this looks just like another excuse to rant.

Can't you open a Python shell and unpickle it?

Of course, you don't take for granted what the client says. You generate your own file name.

I'd say they will not enable that policy by default, at least for a very long time.

I guess they simply won't. Apps that don't adapt can't open the file. Period.

Sad but true. "Removing hate speech" is a codeword for "removing right wing ideas".

New comment by unlinker in "You Can't Always Hash Pointers in C"

unlinker — Tue, 31 May 2016 11:24:08 +0000

That is untrue. UB exists because C is supposed to run on so many platforms there is no way to have a defined behaviour for all of them in that standard.

In any civilised country a prepaid phone number is almost free (if not free) so requiring a unique phone number will only exclude people I don't care about.

And of course that statistic is made up. It was a joke.

Get a phone number like everybody. You are like 0.0000001% of the market. Nobody is going to twist their product to cater to you.

iPhones do not use Qualcomm chipsets, so you're wrong.
