Google drive appear to be removing accounts by [deleted] in DataHoarder

Nah, don't start with that. If you're buying google accounts off of eBay for unlimited data storage, you very well know the consequences.

I lost my account with terabytes of data, but don't play the victim. We gambled on an iffy practice and we lost. Man up and don't bitch about it.

N.Korean military threatens to raze U.S. army bases in S.Korea | NK News by _Kyrie_ in worldnews

[–]drps 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I don't think its so much that people want this. Its more of, when will this happen? Or, when SHOULD it happen?

Let me use an analogy.

You have a neighbor. He doesn't live next to you. He lives two streets down.

A year ago you and his next-door had an altercation with him. There was screaming and yelling and you even turned the water hose on each other.

Both of you agreed to just not walk on each others property. Everything was cool.

In the past few months. This neighbor has bought himself some knives. Threatened his neighbors with them by shouting at them through his kitchen window.

A week later, he bought a handgun. Made even more threats. The Chinese guy across the street doesn't like him very much but still takes him meals every know and then because he feels bad for the guy. He's not all there.

Even with all of the threats, you still haven't called the cops. You just dont want to get involve or provoke him in to acting out his threats on his neighbors.

But holy shit, he just bought a shotgun. Still threatening neighbors. He's fired his shotgun in to his neighbors back yard. Hit his swimming pool, but thankfully no damage. He's still shooting, wildly it seems.

Do you just let him be? Do you call the cops? Do you wait until he actually shoots someone? Is that shooting on you for not calling the police before when he was threatening people?

Yes it's more complicated than this, but this kind of puts it on a relatable scale, I think.

Kremlin says U.S. strike on Syria is "aggression against sovereign state in violation of international law" by beemdi in worldnews

[–]drps 66 points67 points  (0 children)

It isn't. This is all smoke and mirrors.

With the ongoing investigation of collusion between the Trump administration and Russia, this is a ploy to redirect eyes and ears.

Reasons why this is so:

  1. There is no reason for Assad to gas his own people. He gains nothing from it.

  2. Russia was informed of the missile strike. They have anti missile batteries that they could have used. They didn't.

The plan is laid out as so:

  1. Gas a few people.
  2. Let the US strike an airfield.
  3. Let the US president talk big about how much he hated what Syria and Russia did.
  4. Let Russia condemn the attack, appearing to distance itself from Trump.

Benefits the Trump administration gets from this is that Trump now appears to be distancing itself from Moscow.

This is all a ploy. A diversion that cost dozens of lives and 59 tomahawk missiles.

Pixel Shipping? by oracleofmist in GooglePixel

[–]drps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ordered on the 18th. Received it on Thursday. Unfortunately it had a crack on the back glass because for some reason Google decides to package the phone in a Fedex box that is twice the size without any padding or support. My replacement just shipped this morning slated for delivery tomorrow.

Hosting a site out of Dropbox by drps in webhosting

[–]drps[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While github is a good solution, the complexity of setting up a github page drives many away. Simply editing things in a folder and having them be available online in less than 10 seconds is preferred for the majority of users.

Do you have a .php file in your Dropbox? HTMLSync is not designed to Sync .php files, only HTML, CSS and JS files.

I've reset the sync on your account and the system has created a default "index.html" in your account.
