Plus all the political stuff. The man is patantly off his rocker.

That is actually intentional. They do it to restrict refunds on Steam and consoles.

Incompetence might even be a little harsh. Inexperience or incompetence maybe. I prefer inexperience.

They didn't distribute them to him either, he fucking took pictures then went home and found PDFs or used police funds to purchase eBook copies.

Your estimate seems a few orders of magnitude low. I once had an Econ 101 professor who said she recognized that I should think about going into marketing as I would be good at it. I responded "Nah, I prefer my soul right where it is." Little did she know it was already on the short bus headed for hell as I am agnostic and will enjoy the conversation with other righteous nonbelievers.

Aside from 3 you are essentially creating Stumble Upon.

I always apologize to the server when I am checking out and opt for a custom 10% tip or none at all. It is not their fault the company they work for feels it has no responsibility to pay for them. I explain this and sadly shrug. My company is not paying me enough either and I cannot afford to subsidize some other company. They usually smile and nod. It is unfortunate.

This website may be the sweetest thing I think I have seen in a very long time.

It's not. Thanks for the concern.

My landleech padlocked the basement and attic of the house I rent. I keep a large screwdriver for exactly this eventuality. Something goes wrong in the basement and that lock point is done for. Just slip it in the gap around the padlock and pull. Will only take about 200N to rip the thing off the door and I can get way more than that with a little bit of leverage.

So I am out with my family for Father's Day and we passed a church who had:

"What's your favorite Bible verse? Post it on our Facebook."

And it got me to wondering how they would react if someone started posting all of the verses from their storybook that specifically call out the behavior of modern Christians. All the ones about welcoming immigrants and providing shelter and care for the poor, or deriding capitalism. Wonder what would happen if people did that en masse? I almost want to write a bot to go through and do it.

My son was just born, and while a few photos will go on the likes of Facebook and Instagram, overall my partner and I are wanting to keep our shared photos private from the EULA abuses that we all know and hate.

Does anyone here have any good suggestions? I would create my own front end, but I can't swing hosting or a static IP to do it from my local box. Are there any companies out there who aren't total shit bags who claim immediate irrevocable license to all of my photos to do with whatever the fuck they please?
