It'll work without a valid provider or without a SIM at all. As long as it has battery and can pick up any network's signal.

Not sure. YouTube broke it on their own end -- and conveniently only for Firefox again. 🤔

From what I read last week, basically they were sending chunks of the video stream in a completely invalid way. Essentially saying a new chunk of the video begins at an earlier frame than the last chunk ended.

Maybe they mean compiled without it entirely instead of disabled by default, but still available?

Snapchat has been a shit company for years. They threatened to sue third party client developers for Windows Phone, they purposely degrade camera quality on Android, etc (For awhile on Android they were just screenshotting the viewfinder instead of actually using the camera APIs.)

A few days ago, three Orions tried to mug me. Now, I want to be very clear about something. These pieces of garbage—they don't know who they're dealing with. I don't know if they wanted money, or they wanted something more sexual. But it's a lucky thing I had my pieces. So anyway, I started blasting

The key difference is its sorted by an algorithm designed to increase your engagement and view duration. And quite often the easiest way to do that is by generating negative emotional responses, etc

It doesn't even involve drug smuggling. Like organized crime in the US, they've branched out into racketeering and extortion in otherwise legitimate industries. Tortillerias are also major targets of extortion rackets now in Mexico.

Free Speech Systems is out of bankruptcy court now, though. The Sandy Hook plaintiffs asked the court to either change the bankruptcy from a reorganization to a liquidation or dismiss the case. The judge concluded it was in the best interests of everyone involved to dismiss it and allow the SH plaintiffs to move forward in state courts towards collecting.

You could schedule it with cron. You usually don't need to update the lists very often though, and you don't want to either as you're just wasting the bandwidth of the hosts of the lists, who aren't making any money off hosting them.

In my state, the state-issued photo ID cards absolutely do.

Even in the US, you're legally required to for quite a number of things. The most obvious being driver's license/ID cards.
