In The Future, regardless of whether the car is autonomus or not, it will of course always report its travels to the manufacturer, and to the government. For Your safety, citizen. And because terrorists.
Somewhere cheap, I presume. I mean, come on, I could make as good-looking as any flat icons. I could never make even passable skeuomorphic icons. This has to be a scheme to not have to hire actual artists to make your UI.
You laugh, but if Obama bin Laden had gone to this school, you can be sure that he would not have been flying that plane into that building ten years ago. This is how it starts.
If they are on the list for a good reason, why are they not in jail, or dropped from the list, by now? It's been ten years, and the government has watched their every step. Surely they would have done something illegal by now.
(The government has watched their every step, right? I mean, these people are so dangerous that we can't let them fly. Surely, they can't be just let loose unsupervised in 2D-society.)
If the the populace rebels, or votes for more liberal (in the "freedom" sense, not in the American politics sense) policies, they will get no education, no affordable housing, and no healthcare. Surveillance enables the government to quell such dissent. There, that's the connection.
Won't these classes rather be on how to use word processors, spreadsheets, and other Microsoft applications, and name-the-parts-of-the-computer, and such? Maybe write some Visual BASIC on the last week of the semester.
I think the problem rather is what to do if what I consider me "need" differs from what the Zentralkomite says I "need". Or if what I want to produce differs from what Zentral has decided I shall produce.
Also needed if you happen to piss of the government and they order your accounts frozen. Then you starve unless you have cash. Or friends. Who are willing to risk "supporting a terrorist".

...enough computers just for 70% of staff...
Unless you're a convenience store or a machine shop or something, that sounds pretty idiotic. How does that work? 30% are expected to BYOD?
If this was true, why are the airlines constantly teetering on the edge of bankruptcy with razor-thin margins?
Maybe their core business is lobbying the government for handouts and subsidies, and they're actually really incompetent at running airlines?
That would be a much more useful skill to have then cursive.
But whichever way to write we teach them, we should teach the children to spell.

I've always wondered about that too. How do you even come up with the idea?
Where did the latest GUI designers graduate from?

3. if you have to 'search' for it, the UI has failed, regardless whether the search is within the system or done with the internet. FUCK SEARCH.
I particularly love how the proponents often say "discoverability" in one senctence and "just search!" in the next.
But maybe he really needs all those things?
So gender is not important to you? Tsk, tsk, tsk...
One place for everyone and everyone in their place. Now, if we only could make tenure inheritable also...

Using alien technology. To film it in a Hollywood basement.

I propose we forbid (attack) violence. Then no-one will be hurt physically, and we can still have anonymous free speech.
The EU regulators don't want to appear as "censors" (with the unsavory connotation that the word carries in a presumably democratic environment)...
That is a solved problem. Call it "filtering" instead and not only will The Public not object but they will demand it. To protect the children.
I think the problem rather is what to do if what I consider me "need" differs from what the Zentralkomite says I "need". Or if what I want to produce differs from what Zentral has decided I shall produce.
Notifications like those are things that should show up in the system tray, not only if I happen to go to the Start Menu.

So they better contribute enough campaign contributions to remain classified as "emerging"...
Let's compromise. This planet is secretly Ocean-of-Molten-Rock-and-Metal.
So you do not believe in Elon figuring out the cure for ageing soon, then?
"Look, I can't give you a password even if I wanted to, because that's not encrypted terrorism on that drive. It's just static. I use it for randomizing things."
The problem is that "accessible" usually also means "nerfed" and "limited in scope" and "very annoying to the power user".
