  1. Windows 10 Sets is an upcoming feature where you can group documents and apps into one tabbed window that are related to the particular task at hand

    Does it..... maintain state for that task across reboots which occur one second after you've gone afk or does that still require seventeen hours of manual recreation? :|

  2. Re:Streaming Conversion on Trump Promises Copyright Crackdown As DoJ Takes Aim At Streaming Pirates (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    streaming free episodes internationally is efficient marketing if the series has a good enough story

    The new model is to secretly leak your own content to drive purchases of boxed content whilst pushing hard for draconian penalties against everyone on behalf of arrgghhhh/P-word.

  3. there is no fucking money left in the economy to pay for their fucking delusions

    Nope.

    Austerity, people will not starve themselves to buy shitty content

    If true, serves to emphasise that people should be encouraged to open their wallets unwillingly - perhaps by a tax on argggghh^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hpiracy paid for by everyone^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hthose least able to afford it?

       

  4. Information Technology and Suppression of Innovation Foundation (ITSIF)

    FTFY?

  5. Since when did our governments decide their populations were "risk factors" and citizens desire for privacy were "non-actionable concerns"?

    Since,... THE BEGINNING. The idea is that THEY control US. If we know what's going on we have the potential to affect outcomes and seize control. This changes the THEM/US dynamic. Bad.

  6. Paradox alert!

  7. Everything about the US is fiction. Who's today's false flag victim?

    You know that every time you buy one of their products, it encourages them - tells then 'yes, the ratio between cost and enjoyment-gained is acceptable to me'. If it's not acceptable, stop telling them or is.

    ...another Bitcoin shill story

    Investigative journalist brings light to the shadowy world of the shill underground?

  11. I for one don't appreciate how iFruit allow some of their indirect manufacturing partners to lower their productivity by completing their suicide attempts and therefore drive down the profits of the mothership by a small fraction of a nano-cent.

    Pretty trippy. Hook us all up with a link to the appropriate medication :D

  13. > often campaigns are directly controlled from Kremlin

    baseless rumors and lies

    Yeap; pretty sure that's what GP is saying, the baseless rumours and lies are directly controlled by Kremlin.

  14. According to Business Insider Poland, the Narodowy Bank Polski spent around 91,000 zloty ($27,300) on a marketing campaign designed to attack the legitimacy of cryptocurrencies.

    Um, what's that, like $27,300 / $10,386 = 2.6... BTC.

  16. Re:As always... on Apple's New Spaceship Campus Has One Flaw -- and It Hurts (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't think Apple understands that 'good design' is not simply 'good aesthetics', the former being about functionality in the real world with real people and real circumstances.

    Or they (from some point of view) design something aesthetically pleasing and separate themselves from the unpleasantness of ruining the aesthetic by allowing third parties to provide the functional-but-ugly accessories?

  17. Art (visual art especially) can exist for its own sake, but Architecture *should* be functional because most spaces we design have a function and first and foremost they enable that function.

    For all we know the building is performing it's function admirably - to accelerate evolution amongst the apples.

  20. How about dealing with the basics first, like that ability to walk away from the computer with your multi-application state arranged as you see fit and return WITHOUT FINDING THAT ALL YOUR PREPARATION HAS BEEN LOST BECAUSE WINDOWS USES A DEAD-MAN SWITCH METAPHOR when asking for permission to reboot to install updates!

    What the hell is wrong with you people?

  21. Scammers are higher in the social order.

  22. So an email from Pinterest, for example, could contain actionable content, for example a button 'Remove all traces of Papathy from your view of the web. Warning, this will mean that 48% of images returned by Google Image Search will no longer by hijacked by the Papathy service.'
