VPS provider Vultr Claims Rights to Sell Your Data & Programs
  • On top of all this you can't access your account without accepting new ToS. After login web page show full window modal form with one button "confirm" so you can't reject it. I'm sure most of HN readers can handle this minor obstacle ;-) After I asked vultr for access to my account without acceptance of new ToS they wrote me back legal slur suggesting I may host questionable content:

    (...) you take the necessary measures to protect minors from accessing harmful material on your website.

    (...) requirements apply to you, including removing any infringing content and safeguarding minors.

    and threaten me with "law enforcement agencies"

    Bravo, bravo...

  • ‘Dune 2’: How Artisans Pulled off Shooting the Arena Fight Scene With Infrared Technology
  • While I was watching in cinema I thought it was only strange makeup and post-processing. But whole lighting was off. Skin texture was off. I love cinematic art like this: light, composition and color (or lack thereof) It's for me one of most important aspects of both parts. Amazing idea and execution. Hats off...

  • Software registration lock

    Hi, some years ago (2019) I purchased landscaping program 'Punch! Deck & Landscape' from punchsoftware.com. I wanted to install it on new computer but on-line registration of license key failed.

    Their support said that I need to buy new version and gave me 20% discount.

    They seems to not care that purchased software had lifetime license:

    "Unfortunately with changes in technologies the registration server that the older programs used were rendered obsolete and thus rendered the older programs (v20 and older) unsupportable. This is why we offer the discounts to customers who have those older programs."

    ...

    "As newer product is released, they replace the older versions, thus the upgrade systems that are in place for customers who have the older products, so they do not have to purchase new product regularly at full retail pricing. "

    Is there any way to fight those assholes? The company is located in US.

    Can you block an entire instance?
  • I had similar problem and want to block all communities from specific instance (lemmygrad to be precise). I used community search by instance name and block them one by one.
    It would be great to be able to select all results and block with one close click.
