I'm not gonna protest against neither Article 11 nor Article 13 of the EUCD. Because:
1. I'm not European
2. It's all but hopeless to work towards societally sane & productive regulation, anyway. Not on the Global Internet space.

The more I read the more I'm convinced that if a phrase is short, pithy, and doesn't involve at least one pun that only makes sense in prakrit; Siddhฤttha Gotamaย didn't say it.

"Does dropping (malicious) USB drives in parking lots and other places really work?"
297 samples were dropped, 290 got picked up. 135 people opened documents (HTML pinger), 54 flash drives got returned.
20% were opened within the first hour. In less than 5 hours half of the devices were used by someone.

Tumblr having a scare? Heh. Tumblr's been blocked in Indonesia by the government since 2016 whereabouts. I use SimpleDNScrypt though so I still can access it.
But still though I rarely even post or visit anymore.

Dave Isay, the founder of StoryCorps, has an uplifting message for this Thanksgiving season. In a conversation with Brian Stelter, Isay reflects on the power of listening to loved ones' stories. Fights on cable news and Twitter are "just not who we are," he says. "I am way less fearful and way more hopeful about people after having this experience."

You don't grow by pushing everyone away.

โฆThough yes it must be clarified & confessed that I have never subscribed to the Humble Bundle ever before. An oversight I should be deeply ashamed of yes.
Also the last (electronic) game I purchased with actual currency was Monument Valley II for Android. The last "PC Master Race" game I played was, uhโฆ Fahrenheit/Indogo Prophecy? Maybe? ๐
