This could really use a demo video of usage.

I feel like it's still early days, but that's a good suggestion!

seriously. This is not "in browser" if you need a plugin in my opinion.

try changing your card's expiration date to an expired date, this has worked for me in other situations like this

Credit card vendors with a high reputation score have extraordinary powers.

During the credit card auth they are told whether the expiration, CVV, and ZIP code match and they can choose to accept the charge even if they do not match, although they do so at some additional risk of the charge being flagged/reversed. They can even charge expired and cancelled credit cards as well.

Expiration/CVV/ZIP checking are an additional security layer but they are there for the merchant, not for you. A credit card number is all a merchant actually needs to make a charge.

> Most consumers think their credit card expiration dates -- the month and year in which their cards are supposed to be renewed -- are a sacrosant security feature, without which a business can't process a payment.

> In fact, big players in the U.S. consumer-sales industry have developed informal agreements with credit-card issuers that allow charges to be made to consumers' credit cards without specifying the expiry month and year. This procedure works even after an individual's card has expired and been re-issued with a new expiration date.

Trying to do that: "An error occurred trying to fulfill your request".

Change it to expire this month and wait a few weeks?

Instagram is a horrible image portfolio system. It does not offer full res downloads, has zero exif data, extremely limited desktop app. Instagram is a social media app first, and a photo app second.

It appears the sarcasm was missed

such is the risk of performance art ;)

I guess this is just as good place as any to bring this up. In current OS X, you cannot disable your mic. You can turn down the input volume, but never disable. All malware needs to do is raise the input volume and it can listen to you to its hearts content.

And its worse with your iPhone.

Can someone confirm if this is actually true? Sounds too far fetched that you cannot disable the mic (i.e not muting, I assume?).

Just look around on the internet, you'll find the same thing. I researched this a few weeks ago and was amazed.

You basically have to disable the audio driver in OSX to disable it, and doing that, means you can't play audio at all. And even that isn't enough, it technically can be hijacked at an even lower level.

Mayyybe he shouldn't have chosen bright red.

He could have made it much nicer to look at and live. Like these houses.

Classy site, redirects to a pic of balls when referer is HN.

Another practical example of why the referer header needs to be removed entirely.

cut and paste, or right click and open incognito.

Ugh. Fixed it.

This is really cool!

This, a million times this. Also, taxi drivers could care less about your ride experience. No way to rate them and cause any change, so they just treat everyone like crap.

From what I've read and heard, the key is reliability, consumer internet service is not as stringent on reliability, but enterprise internet lines usually come with a guaranteed reliability.
