  • As far as I know, they use things called Evercookies and it's been a thing now too. If you have an Evercookie, then it won't really matter what browser you use or even if you clean the cache and history. You have to deep scrub your system and practically all traces of your browser to even get rid of those.

    And even so, basic networking is a no brainer when they can just flag your IP and it won't even matter how many times you've done that process.

    VPN and Incognito browsing is the way.

  • Because whether you like it or not, social media is the easy-track to connect with people of all varying degrees and connect through common interests and even ideals. It's a lot easier than in the 2000s and 1990s when all you've had was an e-mail and probably chat room hopping. You just had to know someone else's e-mail like you would have to know someone's number to call them, that's how it worked.

    With social media, you can just breeze through friend lists and comb over searches to find friends and everything far easier. It's easier to connect with people that way than ever before. And losing out on that, can sting.

    I sometimes wished it wasn't that way, but the people have largely decided we needed something more than just writing e-mails to eachother.

  • Deleting your posts was a waste of time. Chances are likely that it is archived on their end.

    Reddit has been paying close attention to behavior patterns of banned users and users they wouldn't want on their platform. It's likely they've gotten your posting imprint and just give you the comfort of thinking you've deleted your posts.

  • And when given 4 years to try and find a replacement, they spent it all stammering themselves and ultimately couldn't find one.

    And this shit is going to be no more different. If Trump is going to expect people to pay 100k for visas, he's going to expect Americans to pay 50k for a shot of insulin or 300 for acetaminophen. Something.

  • I state again - remake your case next year. If you can campaign rightly and focus on the ISSUES and what MATTERS instead of wasting your time bashing Trump because that has gone on soooo well last year. Then make it.

    But if you're gonna just pummel Trump then waste your time, continue draining what little faith people have in your camp.

  • No, it never started out as a joke. It came up during a time when conspiracy theories have gone very wild and very political. It was the precursor to QAnon bullshit.

  • Good job, Spez, you fuck!

  • Cruz just irrevocably set himself up for the rest of his life, because now people are going to tie him to this sound clip.

    And conspiracy nutjobs think this guy is the zodiac killer?

  • We'll see if they have one next year.

  • But will something be done about it?

    NOooOoOoOoOoo. As long as it is still the new shiny toy for techbros and executive-bros to tinker with, it'll continue.

  • It's actually pretty cool, I remembered something very similar to this but it was from AVGN. It was uploaded, but taken down, of him showcasing the degrading video quality of a VHS, it was exactly something like this. It might've been a home video he did, where he or someone is punching another person while jogging down the street and everytime it played, the quality went down.

  • With AOL's exit from dial-up, we are now down to three dial-up ISPs; NetZero, Juno and DSLExtreme.

  • AOL will be remembered more fondly for things like this. But, nobody ever has a fond memory of the software AOL shoved out. It was clampware, unreliable and frequently crashed.

  • That's just taking advantage of the gullible. If you're gullible enough to donate money to someone who streams themselves sleeping, you don't ever get to complain about any of your financial woes should there be any from it.

  • ...Right, so you just want people to give you money freely. And get fatter.

  • Well nobody is just going to give you money freely, you know.

    Ah yup, the salty crybaby with his trolling neg-rep is gonna downvote. lol

  • And there'll be a lot of fools out there still recommending this garbage to escape Chrome from.

  • Questions like these are hard to determine an answer for because there's a wide array of subjectiveness and objectiveness from person to person. Social Media has only complicated that.

  • No.

    Unless it's going to be full of assholes with shitty replies for me to block from, then it's a chore.

  • That'd be like saying "I totally trust Google with all of my so-called offline documents by using their totally online suite. They totally wouldn't like, be analyzing the contents once I am online or anything, would they?"
