Ah, so I need not to restart Firefox while they're still enabled.

One of the easiest ways in which you can live longer, is by simply managing your current time better. For example, try living near everything that you might need, in an area with no pollution. Hard to find for a good price!


This shortcut could be seen as scraping the website, since it's just pulling out one image


Scraping = save a local copy of the image Linking = point to source image

If they are referring to jguitar.com each time then this is linking.


I had an app in the AppStore for years that scraped Vonage’s web site and neither them nor Apple seemed to care. There is nothing innately immoral about downloading a web page and parsing it in ways the web site operator did not consider.


It's not about combining, it's about being designed as a construction based on other known patterns. See http://conwaylife.com/wiki/Gemini for an example of a non-elementary ship.


If all you celebrate are the 'wins', you disincentive people from taking risks.


The value they're providing is to the forum owner, who has reduced spam-handling workload.

So the forum is providing you value, you are providing Google value, and Google is providing the forum value.


Sure, but if the public has to provide Google with free data, we should make laws requiring Google to open source the entire ReCaptcha training set.


Why?


Anything created with free work should be free in return. Anything created by the public should be available for the public.


To use an in-thread example - online forums are created with free work. Should all forums be forced to make their archives available for free download as well?


For free download? No. Should I be able to scrape them? Yes.


Yes.


It's not free though. You get access to the forum.

If it was free then you wouldn't be doing them!


When it's for a touch-based system that doesn't typically have a keyboard, my mind goes to graphical drag-and-drop programming first.


But now they could also own put options.


This is a pretty good point. If you're the kind of person who has avoided getting a photo ID on purpose, you probably are staying well away from Facebook. The only targets I can think of would be homeschooled teens with no student ID.

It does however make Facebook even harder to use for anti-government organizing, though Facebook is already pretty clear about not wanting truly anonymous profiles.
