  1. The match forums have already been created. May 2nd and 9th, around Brighton
  2. Your ratings and reactions please. Keep it respectful even if you know everyone else is wrong. A mod will add the players to the MoTM poll later.
  3. UECLQF: Lille v Villa Please do not mention streams or streaming in this thread. Please note that there is no distinction between legal or illegal, video or audio. If you aren't sure, it doesn't go in this thread. You will receive warning points if you ignore this.
  4. I'm still completely happy with Zzoomm. If they are in your area let me know as I have a code you can use for a discount.
  5. And yet almost everyone renewed. Sounds like a typical piss poor piece of journalism from that rag. The posting guidelines are linked at the top of every page.
  6. It's up there with people that insist that stealing tv services is not illegal.
  7. Lie detector tests don't work reliably. It's why they aren't admissible as evidence in court. Might as well go with the "look into their eyes" method.
  8. There's usually a setting for this in the companion app.
  9. It's like with casinos. The only way they don't make money is if Trump runs them.

    I can't see the shareholders getting upset if the (job) titles aren't correct. No-one is investing based on this information.

    Are you saying that Google securely storing data was a breach? A breach is usually considered a loss of data. I'm not aware of Google ever using data outside of their stated AUPs. That people don't read these is routinely portrayed as Google's fault. However, everyone's ISP records all incognito activity unless you use a VPN - and I don't trust ISPs to keep that data secure. Also, I'm a paying customer of Google on all my accounts, so my interaction with them is far less as a product. When Apple got caught tracking location data on IOS devices when Location Services was turned off, they declared it was a bug and fixed it months later. Apple's AUP allowed them to do this. There are many cases of law enforcement using this data. Apple still download WiFi SSIDs for networks which are none of their business, without consent, for providing location services. I agree completely. It's why I'm on the side I am. They are collecting the data either way, I'd rather get something out of it.

    Just Google and Meta for me. I may drop Meta when we get unified messaging standards later this year.
  15. In my far too many years of going to VP, I've only had a half time drink when I've pre-ordered one in a box. I'm surprised people are so desperate for a crap beer that they'll miss part of the match experience to get one.

    It's closely related to what I do for a living and I don't think there is the slightest difference between the two. Some people like walled gardens and lock in. Some prefer a more functional experience in return for targeted ads. Neither has had a significant breach. Both have had scary problems with consumer stuff. One is more open than the other. One fixes bugs more quickly than the other. It always used to be that Apple was "more secure", but that claim has been long dropped by Apple while Google have ramped this up as their claim. Apple moved to the more nebulous "privacy" but in reality, this serves two purposes. To block third parties doing things in their walled garden (all browsers on iOS are still wrappers around Safari, because they don't want better, faster browsers showing up their pet one). And to make people keep buying devices with more and more local storage because cloud is scary (but we can sell you our special privacy cloud).
  17. Is the beer that good that you'd miss the event you've paud for the sake of getting one?

    So Ample cares about privacy, but only if you are a (recent) customer of theirs? Wow. Do you know of any evidence supporting Apple's privacy claims outside of their marketing and the places that regurgitate it?
  19. If the NHS aren't able to use them for what ever reason, I'd rather they were rented out for use. I don't know whether this is the case or not.
  20. Make people healthy so that they can get earning (and paying tax) to offset part of the bills. Insist on British based private sector companies so that their taxes are paid in the UK.
  21. It's been discussed in this thread before, but the short notice nature of these fixtures makes them harder to sell. However, many are taken for the season, but "owners" can't arrange guests for midweek games at short notice. In that case, they've already been sold and can't be sold again.
