The difference is you can't just copy and paste the private key into a phishing website. The login process validates your private key and logs you in.
Also since the service does not store your private key, it is more resistant to data-breaches as that is one less potential breach source.
I looked up the June 2026 breach and there is no mention of passwords being stolen. Only some PII (Phone, name, email, address) through a third party.
Use Brave browser as it avoids browser fingerprinting.
You can fight scalpers by hardware limiting the device to the account that was used to purchase for some set time (2 years or so)
Popular gaming forums NeoGaf and Resetera only allow signups from paid email accounts. All free and temporary email providers are banned to discourage trolls / forum raids / alt accounts.
I know I have created accounts on Reddit with disposable email services before.
Yes, this is just an even shorter rehash of what has been said several times now.
I think the question here is: what is the specific criminal charge or law that was broken to be arrested?
Infinity - 21 is still infinity
Seems to me that hardware modification would be a banned technique.
I wonder if making the game free to play before shut down would allow them to skirt the law?
(also if you're wondering, I don't think the boundary is along racial lines)
read the entire comment waiting for this
depends if you do a copy paste or cut and paste
even better if it is a pirate radio station
So like a teacher?
What if you are performing your own song which was heavily influenced by other artists?
Also I believe performing covers is legal
If you steal a book and read it, should you have to pay every time you use the knowledge gained or recall parts of it from memory?
For their mail service they did
I didn't meant to say no-one saw it theatrically but I probably did undersell it there.
The DVD was such a huge seller and coincided with the format really catching on. The Matrix was the "must have" DVD to show off the format and for many was likely one of the first DVDs they ever purchased.
It was also the go-to movie to show off DivX rips.
The popularity of The Matrix is closely linked with a surge in DVD popularity. IIRC DVD player prices became more affordable right around 2000 which opened it up to more people.
The Matrix is an interesting one because it really caught on with the DVD release. So that was most peoples first exposure to it, not the theatrical release. Even if incorrect, if that was the first way you saw it, it is likely how you consider it "should" look.
I don't see any comparison at all between intentionally starting a fire and your car exhaust unintentionally starting a fire.
Isn't lighting any fire in the woods during dry conditions inherently malicious?
I think there are a few examples where the bitrate is higher than a native rip however.
yes, but in very low amounts. Usually less than what a non-alcoholic beer would have.
Perhaps, but you often see the myth written as a quick sentence or two before some beer related article. Academics may not be writing that, but lazy writers will repeat it often.
The myth often states that water was unsafe to drink, so they drank beer. Suggesting water was never drank. Showing that water was regularly consumed does debunk the myth even if the truth is perhaps in the middle.
I left X because of how bad it got but BlueSky is also quite often useless in terms of good discussion. Recently any substack article posted is just filled with comments about how using substack supports Nazi ideology, no other discussion to be had. When it comes to anything related to AI the comments are all about stealing from artists. It is as if people just wait for the right buzzword to appear and post their canned response. Interesting posts that don't cause any controversy just don't have much engagement.
Not every school has air-conditioning however.
And there are schools that do year-round schedules, but the total time off is about the same. They will typically get a longer winter break, longer spring break, an additional fall break, and then a much shortened summer break, but those add up to about the same time off overall. I know many teachers who prefer that system, some because it means they get paychecks more consistently throughout the year, and also it gives you more spread out breaks and flexibility in taking trips instead of being locked in to summer/Christmas/one week in the spring.
The strongest push back to this schedule is in fact parents. The primary issue is once their kids are in different schools (high school / middle school / elementary) with different schedules this causes issues as kids are not longer on break at the same times. In addition summer camp programs are tied to the traditional schedule leaving kids in the year round schedule with fewer or no options.
In order to change it, you also need neighboring districts/communities/private schools/programming to all shift as well, otherwise it becomes too much of as hassle for parents & teachers.
With discounts and negotiation, you can get below MSRP. A 12k Corolla was certainly feasible in 2006.
