Some internet banking sites give access after only asking for login password. They will only ask for transaction password and OTP (that will only come on phone) later on. Asking for two passwords isn’t necessarily more secure since many people will just reuse their original one again. And OTP instead of offering something like hardware security key is insane.
I read the conversation and someone should put logic into the guy’s head who claims that British industrialised India. As Manchester industrialised, the Indian sub continent was actively not allowed to reap any benefits of it and deliberately kept only as source of raw materials. The theory of Britain industrialised and hence, it’s GDP skyrocketed carefully skips the fact that it controlled a significant part of the world by military might.
I also like how he rebukes by saying that you must have read Marxist historian. I would much rather believe a historian than a reddit user.
Churchill had a negative view of all kinds of people. He is quoted as saying I am in favor of using poisonous gases against uncivilised tribes or I do not admit … for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia..
As for Bengal famine, when the then Viceroy of India asked Churchill about this, IIRC, he replied that if the famine was so bad, why wasn’t Gandhi dead yet?
Many defend Churchill as a person of his time but that is contextually untrue. The Vice President of US, Wallace under Roosevelt found Churchill’s views very condemning when the later started boasting about English superiority to him as well.
This is the only true answer here. Answers like Bandcamp (which hardly has a repository big enough) or switching to Tidal aren’t practical. OP paid for his music, and deserves access to it.
I have Amazon Prime as part of Prime Unlimited but holy Christ, have I never gotten their web app to stream in Linux. As long as greediness on part of these lousy corporations live on, piracy would remain the only true option.
IIRC, one can integrate Tidal with music players like Strawberry on nix too, I think.
Huh, I am hearing this source for the first time. I mostly used Mobilism and most of the apps from there used to come clean on Virus Total as well.
I think these guys might be able to hack through the process and get stuff done and think getting other people to follow them will be trivial as well. But just because they didn’t mess up, doesn’t mean other people won’t. A large majority might end up hurting themselves if they follow in their route.
Isn’t medical tourism a thing in the US too; like you can fly to a developing country, get your treatment done by top specialists there and fly back to US and the cost would still be lower than what it would have taken to do in home country.
I just wrote it because it rhymed with the now memed 2004 anti piracy announcement You wouldn’t download a car that was rightfully criticized.
An old person is carrying a placard that says Thank You comrade Stalin for a wonderful childhood. A party member takes him aside and asks him how that is possible because Stalin wasn’t born when he would have been young. The old person replied, “That’s exactly why I am grateful”.
Before Uber, it was independent taxis only that worked. Sure it was less seamless, but it was a system. Even today, many countries have very low Uber penetration and taxis still run solely in the old fashioned way.
If Uber’s rates are so low, why haven’t most drivers quit the app already? I am assuming Uber isn’t the sole way to get around in Kenya and hasn’t a monopoly in any way. Most developing countries have an informal network of drivers who criss cross the city and basically form an essential pillar of transport there.
It’s a weird choice. I remember r/latestagecapitalism had one where if you accrued certain number of karma in unrelated subs, they would ban you.
My city is already unlivable in summers with temps crossing 45C this time. If the site’s projection is true, it will probably become Death Valley in 2080.
Everything is a streaming service now. I like to think of even Peloton first as a content driven business and second as a hardware seller.
Don’t most music streaming services have all the major bases covered? Unlike for films or TV shows, there are hardly any music streaming exclusive versions of albums. Sure, Tidal tried to make it happen but still, at this day, most streaming services have most of the stuff one wants.
There is the unwanted Glance software on Android, usually preloaded on budget models that displays random wallpapers (read:ads) on Lock screen but nothing equivalent on Apple.
I think Hyper was another Electron based terminal. And talking of terminal and Linux, there exists an electron based file manager for Linux as well. I wonder who exactly their target audience for that is though.
