When I played around with Ancestry.com (the Utah-based ownership still makes me wonder about them), I was looking at the ages, names, and addresses of my families in census records going back into the 1800s. How is this different than what the Australian government is asking for? Or even just a phone book listing for that matter?
If folks think Americans are jingoistic and racist, it's probably because they haven't dealt with the Chinese (yet). African countries are already starting to experience the Hidden Kingdom's version of TANSTAAFL. Ironically, I fully expect the USA and Vietnam to buddy-up pretty close over the next decade due to the increasing aggression of their common enemy.
I bought a friend's kid a Dell laptop for her upcoming college start and it will be featuring Windows 10. I never bothered for the upgrade offer on our 7 installs, so I have never been in front of Win 10. I'd like to clean off all the crap so she doesn't have to deal with it (starting with the free McAfee), but I haven't found a solid source as a guide yet. I would especially like to avoid forcing her to create / use a Microsoft Account just to use the bloody computer (that part feels Big Brother creepy).
Anyone have any suggestions or links to de-crapify an OEM install of Windows 10?
(as in The Freaking Slashvertisement), I see squat about any commitment to rolling out Google patches in a timely fashion nor more than just for a few months before they start planning for the Note 8. Shocking.
I'm hoping we can fix this in the years to come and convince a different chipset company to release the source code for an equivalent firmware. Unfortunately that argument won't fly if the FCC is requiring lock downs.
No The F/OSS community must come together with funding for both the from-scratch code AND FROM-SCRATCH HARDWARE with not one blob nor black box to be seen. Pony up the cash and the fellas on the Pacific Rim will build whatever you like. Then and only then will an thousand roses bloom (after FCC and EU certification, of course).

Bottom line is: death to independent journalism and all money to the already wealthy and powerful. Think what you're told to think via the pre-approved breadcrumbs of information allowed for you by a handful of one-percenters. This is hand-in-glove with the willful destruction of public education in red states, as an ignorant populace is a controllable populace.
The most popular product was, and continues to be... well, I can't really say here except to say it is intimately linked to the world's oldest profession.

The telcos in this issue remind me of Bofors, whose 40mm AA gun was nearly ubiquitous, used by both sides in WWII.

called paper. Then count them. By hand. Publicly. And it shouldn't ever matter how long the count takes, FFS.

Mass transit that allows car-based bombs to position themselves right under the passengers. Brilliant.

THAT is my thought on Windows 10. I'll pass.
Just come out with powdered nicotine for snorting or throw it into some saline and mainline it instead. Problem solved.
