NearlyFreeSpeech.net offers many TLDs (not all) for registration. If you use them for DNS, their config page isn't that great IMO (it's a bit slow and cumbersome), but I like just about everything else about them.

Relevant to TFA: you can configure how many "recovery actions," between 2 and 7 (default: 3), which are required before you're granted access to lost account credentials. They also offer a "scorched earth" option: if you lose access to your account, it's gone forever (any associated services will persist until the account runs out of funds).

I imagine that goes a little like this.

They deserved that, lol.

I imagine that goes a little like this.

It's worth putting all this out there because it has been one gigantic clusterfuck ever since Windows 8's features were revealed. And I will continue to point out that PR firms and fanbois have harmed Microsoft more than help them. I really hope Windows 10 can put this awkward, uncomfortable, frustrating dynamic to bed. The social costs of Windows 8 have undermined its value as an OS, and that's so damn silly that it's a shame I have to type it. In the Army, we called that "Mickey Mouse bullshit." All that should matter is the OS itself, and I'm optimistic about Windows 10 in that regard.

I some time running the Windows 10 Technical preview that was released in January. Although it's an early, nowhere-near-finished- pre-beta version, it shows where Microsoft's thinking is headed. And it's not good.

While they have made some improvements over the clusterfuck that is Windows 8, in most cases they have doubled-down on stupid, keeping the vast majority of bad design decisions that were made with Windows 8. Even bringing back the Start Menu was botched. It still isn't as functional as Windows 7.

And the whole thing is just fucking ugly. More and more people spend an enormous amount of time in front of a computer, not just for social/entertainment purposes but for work as well. Aesthetics matter and Windows 8/10 fail horribly. This picture sums it all up perfectly:

"... stop being an enabler and speak up."

Most people are locked in the matrix of their upbringing and education, they are quite literally spinning in terms of exhaustion/being distracted by stress of school/work and debt (paying the bills). We'll not get into poor parental environment or upbringing which heavily interferes with all of that. And yes you can be manipulated without knowing it.

Reason doesn't work the way we thought it does:

"I'm worried primarily about two kinds of abuse: political capture of our nation (a coup through intelligence services) and theft from motivated American minds working to accomplish things that could benefit us all. The overarching problem is that there is absolutely no way for the average citizen to know these abuses are not happening."

America in the Technetronic Age 1968

https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http://64.62.200.70/PERIODICAL/PDF/Encounter-1968jan/18-29/&chrome=true

Page 21 "At the same time, the capacity to assert social and political control over the individual will vastly increase. As I have already noted, it will soon be possible to assert almost continuous surveillance over every citizen and to maintain up-to-date, complete files, containing even most personal information about the health or personal behaviour of the citizen, in addition to more customary data. These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities."

"Moreover, the rapid pace of change will put a premium on anticipating events and planning for them. Power will gravitate into the hands of those who control the information, and can correlate it most rapidly."

But, but, all girls must learn how to code, whether they want to or not, because Google told us so. If your school's CS department isn't at least half women, you better shut it down before it gets publicly shamed as a misogynistic hotbed of rape. It's a nice uni you have there, hate to see something happen to it...

Good thing we're teaching every girl how to code, I mean Hello Kitty is gonna need a new webmaster some day right?

Wendy's and McDonald's still do it:

Tim Hortons used to.

Some older locations retain signage with the company's name including a possessive apostrophe, despite the fact that the official styling of the company's name has been Tim Hortons, without an apostrophe, for at least a decade.[16] The company had removed the apostrophe after signs using the apostrophe were interpreted by some to be breaking the language sign laws of the Province of Quebec in 1993. The removal of the apostrophe allowed the company to have one common sign image across Canada.

... people don't make "free choices" to begin with, the universe works on the laws of nature. The only way to safeguard our privacy would have to have been to build it in at its foundations early in history when it was being invented but that didn't happen because the people who invented it didn't really think about it too much because of computational and other limits of the technology of the time. The freedom and open-ness that gave us the internet ended up being its achilles heel.

Just look at early things like Gopher and email, all plaintext and early HTML as well. That was pretty much just asking to be spied on and let's remember, most of the internet is in plaintext so its trivial to see what they are doing.

All systems can be hacked given infinite resources and time, and given the political climate, Schneier would do well to see what science has discovered about reasoing. Reason doesn't work the way we thought it does, your sense of reality is controlled by emotion not truth:

Why does it group all the windows of one application into one button

This is why.

Of course, part of the problem ifs that I'm using an "everything" computer. Then having to do some other task or wait on an existing one since it's nowhere near complete and has to be done later. Then these windows build up.

If they weren't group, I'd be hunting through 82 buttons, which has the same effect as having to click twice.

Good job making it impossible to login to comment from any page other than the front page, assholes.

See this shit?

Latest Chrome, with only AdBlock Chrome installed.

Face it, folks. Slashdot is GOING to convert you over to something new no matter what you say.

The editors and staff of Slashdot are constantly lying to you and they will not stop.

Fairly soon some of their e-mails are going to leak and you're going to see EXACTLY what DICE is up to.

"It's time to stop giving these idiots the benefit of the doubt, and assume they're lying to us and crapping on our rights -- because, apparently they are"

You and many people are unaware of what's really going on, this is a pre-emptive strike against political change. Most have no clue what's really going on in the world... the elites are afraid of political awakening (aka global revolt). i.e. they fear you stopping voting for politicians and causing social and political change because the democratic system is a sham.

It has nothing to do with drugs, most people don't know what the spying is really about. It is very intentional.

Reason doesn't work the way we thought it does, see the sc

Yes, it's about the same for me. I see it predominantly gold and white. However, I can see it black and blue if I first look at this white and gold dress, and then I scroll the image from the bottom. I guess it's because most of the orange illumination "hints" are in the lower part of the image.

Me and my wife, as well as other couples see it in the same light but interpret it differently. I was sure it can't possibly be interpreted as blue/black, at most I would say it could be thought of as blue/bronze, but I asked my wife in the same room what color it is and she immediately said "blue/black of course". Neither of us could "see" it the other way. Until I opened an image someone made of how the white gold would look in a proper photo. So, after looking at this photo for a bit, I went back to the original and I could finally see it as black/blue!

That's not how it would work. It's cloth. It has ripples and shades.
There would be patterned ripples across the dress where "real" colors would show in shades or highlights.

IF the photo itself wasn't messed up by the camera/software, effectively replacing the color palette in the entire photo.

William Gibson foresaw this in his "Bigend cycle" books.
Hubertus Bigend wears International Klein Blue suits just to fuck with everyone else, as it can't be represented correctly on monitors or in print - note two different whites in the color corrected photo in order to get both the skin tones and the dress right.

Gibson just didn't thought of adding shitty CCDs to the list of technology with issues with reproduction of the color.
Or, illiterate "designers".
She calls it "Royal Blue" in the video.

Sure... If one could get people to wear a computer screen, calibrated to show the web palette of colors.
There will be little difference. THERE. On the screen.
Especially if one's screen is not even close to calibrated.

On the other hand.... Trying to mix those "equivalent" values listed in RGB and CMYK.
In Web-RGB they WILL look exactly the same. And so will the blacks.

Ask the same industry standard company to do it using their other, more professional tool, with full RGB and CMYK gamut...
http://i.imgur.com/46B6H55.jpg

And just try using the RGB and CMYK values for Ultramarine (essentially IKB).
http://i.imgur.com/Idc2pr7.jpg

The color she envisioned on her screen is NOT the color of cloth chosen for the dress, based on the color on the screen.
She wanted "royal blue" but picked ultramarine - because Web-RGB royal blue is closer to aquamarine IRL.
The person designing the dress DOES NOT KNOW WHAT COLOR IT IS.

It's not about "rods and cones" and "everyone seeing colors a little differently".
It's about people using wrong names for colors, often calling many different colors by the same name and the same color by different names.
Then it is about faulty capture technology and badly written color conversion and calibration algorithms.
Then it is about faulty display technology, which can't show the same image under different viewing angles.
THEN, and only then, MAYBE, color perception and ambient lighting might fool the untrained eye.

But it is most likely that in most cases it is again different people calling a shade of red pink and orange.

The XKCD plot just makes me see gold and white at different levels of brightness. But I did find this color illusion featuring yellow and blue. The dogs are actually the same color, which you see if you look at them individually through a small aperture
http://i.imgur.com/sh5NwCK.jpg

Make it pretty obvious that at some point your brain switches from wanting to see blue to wanting to see yellow based on the color context. It would appear some of us are slightly different in where transitions like that occur.

For reference, here's a histogram of the image's RGB color components.
