Right, but the exact same thing could have happened with Google Photos or whatever it's called these days if you don't have 2fa enabled.

If you pay online, you know if your payment cleared right away. With these GPRS card readers, you wouldn't know until the driver has arrived, and frequently the readers wouldn't work for one reason or another. Of course, if you wanted to pay by card, you usually didn't have cash either, so then the driver would have to phone their shop and ask what to do, and it was just a general hassle.
They've since been acquired by Dominos and offer online PayPal/credit card payment and it's much more convenient.
Those are such diametrically opposed interactions, I really don't understand the thought process that went into that. Usually sharing is the last thing you want to do with a photo you're trying to hide, and with the share dialog open it always feels like you're just one mistap away from sending it to whoever.
I guess with the "Duplicate" / "Slideshow" / … options the share menu has become more of a general action menu, but if that's the idea, they should really change the icon imo.
That‘s a single, mostly dead non-profit project in a tiny area, not accepted by most stores even in that area and 99% of Germans have never heard of it. Hardly comparable to Libra.
Why would you write a statement that is so demonstrably false?
Due to EU passenger rights regulations, train company was on the hook to get him there somehow, so they ended up paying a taxi to drive him across the Netherlands into Belgium.
Edit: Ooops, someone already mentioned this below. Oh well.
What the heck, that's a thing in the US? How is that even legal
The lawsuit was only struck down because of a lack of transparency in the pricing, as the customer has no way to check the fare they will end up with if they skip a leg. So if they publish prices for skipped legs, it would be a-ok I guess.
XMPP+OTR is just about the last thing I'd want as a messaging service on my phone.
For a while, there was a URL shortener running on http://to. Ultimately it was scrapped because browser support was unstable, to say the least. In chrome, you had to add the dot or it would do a Google search, for example.
Edit: Actually, I just checked, and to. still resolves, to 216.74.32.107 to be exact. But if you access it, there's only a default Apache2 "It works" page.
I use a pretty ununsual TLD (.su, the old TLD for the Soviet Union, which still remains in the root zone), and from time to time, I come across a site that won't accept my email address because of that. Most of those sites turn out to be generally crappy though, so not much of a loss…
Also, many sites don't accept + in email adresses, which is annoying as hell if you want to use the address extension feature of Postfix et al.
What a horribly arrogant and conceited thing to say.
