What do you do when you have to buy a few boxes of beer for a party that are too heavy to carry?

How do emergency services work?

Considering the technical expertise of the parliament members, I'd fully expect it to pass.

I dare you to wear a jewish hat and go through one of those districts if you think the law will protect you - but of course people like you are all talk and no action.

Here's what very likely could happen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U82tPY7EyL8

You're indirectly defending anti-semitism and it makes me sick.

>it's been an issue for the last 30 years

So why are you arguing it then, only to admit that it's a problem one sentence later?

You haven't seen shit. Criminal family clans have an estimated 200.000 family members in Germany alone. This source is leaning extremely to the left so you can't accuse me of using bad sources:

Police have formed extra divisions for this and it's a huge problem in at least a dozen big German cities.

It's the same or worse in Paris, Marseille, Stockholm, some English cities and probably others I forgot.

Saying this problem doesn't exist only shows how uneducated and ignorant you are.

This was always about sending a message. For that, it has to be obvious who did it.

Why would anyone in the west go to such lengths to frame Russia in this? It'd be like kicking a kid that's on the ground. They have nothing to gain from it.

Adding to that, the bluntness and stupidity of these operations fits the style of Russian agencies very well. They don't seem to be very good at covert operations anymore as they failed to adapt to modern technology.

That's an earlier screenshot of the page. It had about 2 million likes at the end. They posted provocative content, government critical stuff, some of it true, some of it false and some of it utter nonsense. None of which is illegal. Welcome to election campaigns around 2018. It's not our fault they have sunk to such a low level, but that's what it is and there's no consolation price for being the good guy.

This page had more readers than all but the biggest printed newspapers, which is quite a feat. Then one day their page was disabled and later deleted.

No real person has been and would be prosecuted for what they did. Personally, I think their content was crap and didn't follow it, but that's besides the point. They did what most politicians and official newspapers do to get attention and clicks.

This was in the early days, when the law was in planning, but not officially passed. Since then, many other pages like that simply disappeared.

Government critical pages with millions of followers were deleted, playing directly in the hands of the (re-elected) government.

I don't want to be the judge of what's reasonable and what's not. As you see, having any kind of hate speech laws can and will be abused and end in censorship and stupid political games, as almost anything can be labelled as hate speech. It only depends on the perspective.

Personally, I'd go with the American model of anything goes. I don't think it's great, but it's better than this. Hate speech laws don't change anything - there will always be people who say something stupid or something you don't like. I prefer offensive people any day to people who deliberately misinterpret things and paint themselves or others as victims to discredit their opponents.

Directly from the devil himself.

Arvato belongs to Bertelsmann. Here's a German article about how close they are to the government.

The situation is absurd. Facebook is legally required to pay for censorship by companies with close ties to the government.

And that's exactly the problem with it: It cannot be clearly defined and everyone is offended by different things, which makes it a perfect tool to censor just about everything you want.

Show players the contents of the next box they buy, which makes it not gambling.

I hate it, but it's a very elegant solution to avoid any legal problems.

The legal process was completely removed. They use this to help their election campaigns by branding government critical content as extremist and having it removed without due process.

You'd think that when they remove content like that, they'd report the offenders to legal authorities -because after all, they are only allowed to remove content that is clearly illegal- but in most cases they don't. They just want the content gone and move on, which makes it very clear that this is just a censorship tool and their generous interpretation of illegal hate speech wouldn't hold up in any court.

What the fuck. I don't even.

Western countries are actually starting to imitate that system, because it allows for a somewhat peaceful submission of society at low living standards.

The situation in the 'country of the free and awesome'© is supposedly different, but that doesn't invalidate my statement in any way.

If there's one thing where the German TV industry equals the American one, it's being corrupt pieces of shit.

2. Show them local alternative ISPs who don't have these problems

3. Take a signing bonus when users who had the warning displayed change ISPs

Just one idea of many, but content providers and users could put a lot more pressure on ISPs to prevent this, at least in areas where alternatives are available.

So yeah, my real life response to that would be very similar.

Really smart move by the UX team.

You're a billion dollar company and your web player has problems getting the focus right.

You still haven't found a decent way -other than notification and email spam- to remind users when the series they're watching start a new season. Like, keep them in the user's list, but apply an "inactive/watched" filter so they don't mess up the list of currently running and unwatched series?

My WoW character disagrees. Seriously though, if you enjoy what you're doing, doing a lot of it is fine.

I've worked with developers who completely ignored good libraries and instead created their own terrible implementations. They got nothing done and what they did was a buggy mess that often needed months of patching.

Finding a good middle ground is the best way to go and when the loading time increases by only a few milliseconds, but the development is a lot faster and cheaper, that's a good compromise in most cases.

That being said, killing an app that is actively playing audio is not the best idea and an open source app with 100 million installs should probably be whitelisted anyway.
