You need to re-do all your client-side user assistance prompts+ with real validation serverside anyway...

+ client-side validation is not validation.

This is a very likely answer. Strange that it is downvoted.

Fruit sugar is fructose the exact same chemical as comprises about half of sucrose and exactly half of high fructose corn syrup.

Fruit sugar is just sugar.

Fruit sugar is still sugar.

Or rather I gave copies of my keys to everyone who passed by.

And in other news people using screenreaders have been viewing these texts the whole time...

This is true. Maybe this was posted to remind us of how unknowledgable the average computer user is regarding the web?

I have never heard the word "mobbing" in the UK.

This solution is straight up sexual discrimination. Pure and simple. I can't accept that any solution that is purely discriminatory is "good enough".

But it probably isn't used in the YouTube apps and using it would require pushing an update. Smart TV manufacturers are not famous for pushing updates promptly.

Not sure but some guesses:

Traditionally students got a lot of leeway with running their own stuff maybe there have been a few doing not-good-things?

Lots of academics who don't take security seriously have had more admin access to live servers than they should and then stuff like the article happens?

.ac.uk emails get spam filtered pretty harshly.

> If they have a net worth of $1m+, I'm sure they can afford to pay for care. I am not talking destitue, improvished individuals.

Except that you are. There are plenty of old people in London and the South East with very modest pensions that live in homes that have exploded in value through no fault of their own. They are not wealthy they just happen to live in a home that has become expensive.

I don't know if you have seen how confused a someone with dementia becomes when you move them to a new environment but it can be pretty horrible. And cheerfully saying that now this formerly independent person has to now pay for care because you took a policy decision is cruel.

The solution to a problem with society is not to hurt other people. This isn't a zero sum game where pain should be apportioned. We could actually come up with solutions that help everyone. Like simply building more homes...

And you have to balance your optimism with the fact that your solution will cause lots of old people (who maybe should have downsized 10-15 years ago) to be forced to downsize now and who would then lose the ability to live independently.

> But as another post has mentioned, objections include "think of the old people who are worth $1m+ in property but would have to move out because they have low income"....boohoo...

Cruel. There are plenty of old people that are able to keep living in their existing home because it is familiar but would be unable to live independently in another home.

I get the annoyance with deprecating extensions. But seriously the <edit>main</edit> person you are harming by running vulnerable un-patched software is yourself.

EDIT: s/the only person/the main person/

Sounds like something I would need my work to pay for...

If an employer expected me to use such a device I would assume that they would also pay for me to have a separate internet connection (this could easily be tethering to my work provided mobile data).

> I am not willing to introduce spyware that also scans all devices within the network to my home network.

In the EU I would seriously doubt that your employer is allowed to do this.

My point is that changing ecosystems will have unforeseen consequences...

And plastic food packaging?

How is hoping that whole new species evolve and spread without changing ecosystems even remotely an easy problem?

Once we have plastic eating bacteria plastics will serve no useful purpose. Imagine your laptop rotting...

There are natural processes that remove CO2. There are no natural processes that break down plastics to a safe form.

EDIT: To be clear I am not saying that it is harmless to release lots of CO2 I am saying that we can't compare pollutants by simply looking at the gross tonnage released.

The problem is that the plastic straw will still be polluting the environment in 10,000 years. Getting macro plastics out of the environment is difficult getting microplastics may be impossible. At some point we have to accept that single use plastics have an environment cost that is totally unacceptable.

As for emotive press stories about dead animals being the only reason people care. Did you know that the average human meal contains microplastics now? That your body contains microplastics right now?

Paternity leave is still shocking in many countries.

Scandinavian countries have more like a year parental leave.

Their is an entire industry that either is already or definitely would be doing this if there were deliberate bugs in Apps.

Yes.

> USA remains to be one of the only countries where you can own property if you are not a natural born citizen.

This is just not true.
