When you send an email from your client it goes to your server and then to the recipient's mail server

Your connection to the server is encrypted. If your recipient is on the same server then no further transmission is necessary. If you're recipient is within an internal network who's servers you can control then the further transmission can be encrypted if the admin chooses it to be. Then the only remaining piece is to read the mail using encryption. And that is precisely what is happening in this case.

Your mail server will almost always then send it out to the recipient on their wire in plain text.

Get with the times. Email servers these days will "almost always" send out to the recipient using encryption. What does almost always mean? Well according to Google 86% of messages sent on to other servers are encrypted in transit and 88% of messages received from other servers are encrypted in transit. https://www.google.com/transpa...

But don't take my word for it, open your email and check the headers. You'll be amazed at the number of emails that will bounce between all servers using TLS encryption in transit.

Technology changes*, you need to change your view with it.

Problem: you can't just hand people money. Nobody is working; who is building these houses, maintaining these roads, and making the food?

For like 400 years, people have been saying that, just next decade, these new machines will end all human labor, and we'll all live with our mechanical servants caring for us. It hasn't happened yet, for important reasons: any machine which can do that has to be a sentient, creative intellect, which is essentially human, will want rights, will want pay, will want free time, and thus won't be free. Anything less just paves the way for us to apply our labor to make even more shit.

More to the point, though, every industry has a break in it. The major break is the logistics of marketing: every business wants to exceed its peers, or at least keep its position, and so we have competition; and robots can't compete. Humans can utilize robots as they compete.

That doesn't get down to the recursion problem: robots aren't self-maintaining, and we need machinists and QA and such to keep the robots running. There are little things for which we'd use more labor to build and maintain robots than to do on our own. Instead of 3,500 people running a candy factory, we use fewer than 300; and we use those 300 people because the robots can't do some stuff cheaply enough.

In a decade, it'll be 30.

So you have two considerable situations: The rich have nothing because nothing is made, because they can't sell to anyone, and so can't remain rich; or everyone is rich because the means to make things are cheap and easy. Neither of these actually works out.

Thus you have the only remaining option: we have the same kind of working population as we have now. Oh, we might cut our working hours in half, because suddenly we can produce 3x as much and nobody wants that as much as they want 1.5x as much stuff and half the time spent working to get it. We'll still be a working society.

With a universal social security, the bottom of society--the poorest--have a minimal standard. What's just above that, though?

I've been trying to get a good visual down for this, but I'm not the world's best Web designer (I can't, at all). The policy is easy to work out, while the politics are... hard. Bear with me for a minute.

A universal Social Security, sufficient to better achieve the mission of our welfare services, without dismantling our welfare system, causes a reduction in taxes at all levels. In payroll, it's 0.9% marginal lowered taxes; in corporate profits, we fall from 35% to 32.5%; and the individual has greater retained take-home income when you include the benefits check that comes twice a month.

Currently, our personal income tax brackets range from 10%+6.2%(OASDI) to 28%+6.2%, then fall to 28% and climb back up to 39.6%. I've cut my proposal back to only tackle the naive implementation and leave straightening it out to the CBO, which means I inherit that flaw: the blunt proposal has the highest tax bracket on the middle class, like our 34.2% tax bracket on $91k (single)/$153k (married, 2 incomes under $118k).

Under that proposal, the impacts on taxable wages hit a low point around $200k, with only $2,800 more income (single earner). In other words: the total Federal taxes paid on $200k as a single earner falls from 27.53% to 26.15%.

At $50,000, it's about $5k more spendable income single, $13k more spendable income married.

Let's look at minimum wage, though.

The poorest of poor end up with $8,751/year, or $17,502 for a two-adult household. That's in untaxed income (benefits disbursement). If you have no job and no income, that's where you stand.

At minimum wage ($8.25/hr), one full-time income gets a single earner $7,204 more income than today, $21,579/year, or $12,828 more

the question isn't, do immigrants help the economy?, but rather, Does any of that economic benefit trickle down to the 99%? Some of it does in the form of McJobs supporting the white collar immigrant workforce. But so far in America almost all of those gains have gone to the top 1%. That's not me being a libtard, it's a fact.In America widespread income inequality and a lack of social services makes immigration a raw deal. Your entire quality of life here depends on your job.

Canada's a bit different. They at least has single payer and a moderately functional safety net (albeit not one as robust as the Scandinavian countries AFAIK). They might see some benefit. It depends on whether their ruling class can exploit the divide between city & rural voters to cut those services like they did in America. They're definitely trying.

You're right for bitumen, but there is zero correlation between how "dirty" an oil is and it either being in a tight reservoir or from deepwater except in a broader sense of energy cost.

Energy cost is precisely the issue. Energy in oil production almost always corresponds directly to CO2 emissions.

Abundance in the crust does not necessarily reflect extractability of deposits

No, but as I mentioned, price does. And neither lithium carbonate nor cobalt oxide (aka the raw materials) are particularly expensive. Furthermore, the person said "rare", which does mean abundance.

The latter source has come to dominate because it is generally cheaper, but is still quite energy intensive and both of them involve mining or evaporation pond operations that disturb the surface terrain over large areas. he fact the natural playa floods, typically annually, doesn't make the surface disturbance go away.

Dominate overwhelmingly at present (although pegmatites might make a comeback due to booming demand). No, it's not particularly energy intensive, and I'm going to dispute the statement that the evaporation ponds stick around through flood (unless you have something to back that up); production cost reports regularly note that the annual loss of the evaporation ponds makes flooding salars more expensive to produce from (but they represent some of the largest and richest resources). They're made of salt. You don't flood something made of salt, with water, and then have it stick around.

The GP was trying to make the produditon of lithium sound like some scar-gouging strip mine. Here's what it actually looks like. It's hard to think of a means of mining that has less impact on the landscape.

Use what the camera sees as the screen background.

That's the best idea I've seen on Slashdot in weeks, and I'm including my own comments in that. Of course, life being what it is, that means there's already apps which do that.

I think you could get the brine into deep water pretty easy in Southern California. The more salt, the heavier the solution so getting it off the continental shelf should keep it at the bottom. It would cool just flowing through a pipe to the edge of the drop, which is not far in a lot of places. GoogleMaps
Another thought along your lines is that if oil consumption goes down there may be cold water deep sea oil platforms available for re-purposing... Save fresh water in bags below the waterline and dump salty water right back into the deep. Obsolete oil tankers could haul water just as well as they did oil... and a spill would not be an issue like it is now.

Twaddle

Actually, I think one of the issues with melting polar ice is a decrease in salinity that slows the circulation of the oceans. It used to be that cold salty water dropped to the ocean floor at the poles and drove an underwater river that circled the globe, http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/conveyor.html. That is now slowing, too much warmer fresh water from ice melting (no matter why). Less winter sea ice forming means less salt adding to the process.
Also, people are actively harvesting sea salt today in California... not sure why... lot of algae from the looks of it.

Do you have an android phone? Some sick bastard made a Clippy app that puts the little fucker on your phone.

Will they listen? I don't know. Last time they screwed up News this badly (2011), they eventually listened to the angry people (including me) and added enough features back to make it as useful as the previous version. And the reaction on their product support forums has been next-to uniformly negative, just like last time.

On the other hand, the fact that they did this without noticing they were making the same mistake as last time, without an extended period of a/b testing, makes me wonder if they're too arrogant or stupid to listen to feedback this time. Do they have no institutional memory whatsoever, or did they go ahead in spite of institutional memory?

Hosts add speed (via hardcodes/adblocks), security (vs. bad sites/malware/poisoned dns), reliability (vs. dns down), & anonymity (vs. dns requestlogs/trackers).

Less power/cpu/ram + IO use vs. DNS/routers/addons/antivirus + less security bugs/complexity & faster vs. addons/routers/remote dns!

Avoids DNSChangers in routers/IP settings & dns redirects (99.999% of ISP DNS != patched vs. it) + lightens DNS load & resolves faster from local system RAM!

* Via what u NATIVELY have in the IP stack in FASTER kernelmode!

So what? What's your point?

The point is that if you're going to try to decide if this will hurt the company or not, you should look at either income before tax, current assets, or cash flow. Those numbers are easy to find and will give you a much more accurate picture of how much it will hurt the company. I'll even link to them for you, to make your life easier, here you go, enjoy.

I see you're also a druggie too https://slashdot.org/comments....

Going to make more sockpuppets to stalk & troll me with you loon https://slashdot.org/comments.... ?

Your sending me postcards with threats too https://slashdot.org/comments.... ?

* You're a butthurt loon freak, plain & simple... you did it to yourself, loser...

You're from SWEDEN the land of UBI slavery, which IS all that result from it, witness your "no go" zones w/ Muslims RAPING your women https://www.google.com/#q=Sweden+and+muslim+rape (you're all "not men" there, punk)).

P.S.=> Still trying to live down how I shot you to pieces in the art & science of computing Mr. Butthurt https://slashdot.org/comments.... ?

How about proving hosts & my program that builds them are useless too https://slashdot.org/comments.... ?

See subject above - They're FACT & your fails made them so, lol!

What is this supermarket thing you're talking about? I seem to remember that term from the dark ages but can't quite place it .....

TL,DR; Why are you wasting time in a store?

bestweasel noted:

E.U. member states agreed [last month] on an ambitious new open-access (OA) target. All scientific papers should be freely available by 2020, the Competitiveness Council - a gathering of ministers of science, innovation, trade, and industry - concluded after a 2-day meeting in Brussels.

http://www.sciencemag.org/news...

Unfortunately, that was just the Competitiveness Council's resolution. To put actual teeth into it as an EU policy will require action by the European Parlaiment.

In the meantime, there's the Unpaywall extension for Firefox and Chrome. If there's a non-paywalled version of a journal article available on the Web, it'll find it for you. (And it pays to check back, because free versions often become available sometime after the initial publication of a journal article.)

The issue is that YouTube (GOOGLE) directs you to a specific CDN based entirely on the location of the name server you are using rather than your actual location. This means that even if your ISP has a nice YouTube (GOOGLE) CDN that can deliver terabits of YouTube video per second, it wont use it if your name server is one of the public ones located on another leg of the internet (such as GOOGLES public name servers.

Not true. https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/faq#cdn. Most site's nameservers that serve geo-sensitive results (including Youtube's) respect the edns-client-subnet information that most public DNS resolvers send, including Google's Public DNS. That means that regardless of where the public nameserver is located, it'll fetch the appropriate results from the authority as if it was on your network.

If other sites work at full speed, it's possible that your ISP's peering with Google is the bottleneck, not the last mile. It would be tricky to get much visibility into that though.

Double standard?

Hardcoded favorite sites in hosts where you spend most time resolve faster locally from RAM increase speed/security vs.remote central DNS' numerous security issues & protect vs. malware etc. too or DNS being down. This also lightens DNS server loads too (bonus).

* So where's my prize Mozilla? Dns = centralized function of the internet. Use of hosts thus is not.

There is even an 1 employee option.

The standards haven't changed for over 100 years. A link to a 1905 manual I posted elsewhere in this thread.

No, you're the one who is wrong. 2x4 is rough cut size, the dimensions 1.5 x 3.5 have been used even since the advent of balloon framing when the mills started delivering dressed lumber. Prior to that boards would be dressed at the site. These measurements haven't changed in a long time, here's information about it from 1905.

Why not go all the way? Give me an app so I can order AND pay from my phone. Save them the cost of the kiosks and save me from wasting time queuing for a kiosk

I imagine it's possible to enter a McDonald's gift card into their app and then apply the balance towards mobile orders in markets where it is available.
