Ad block software will not cost publishers publishers $21.8 billion in 2015. Those numbers are invalid because (1) many ad block users would avoid some sites they normally visit if they had to suffer through ads, (2) the incremental traffic from ad block users will not likely generate a proportional amount of sales for advertisers, and (3) advertisers will not like pay a proportionally higher amount if ad block software was not used.
Who knew that trade negotiators could pass legislation without the knowledge, let alone approval, of Congress? Do countries other than the U.S. also kowtow to the music and film industries? Google or Microsoft could buy the entire music and recording industry, and never bat an eye. How does such a small industry carry the weight to mandate worldwide legislation?
If a Greek citizen can buy a bitcoin, the same person can buy Euros, Dollars, or stock index funds, all of which are more stable.
The author of this must be either financially ignorant or hyping bitcoins.
It was not a reverse. It was a postponement. From the SourceForge blog:
"SourceForge pledges to present third-party offers only with the projects that explicitly opted-in to that program." So sourceforge will give money to developers if they agree to allow malware in install files.
"We are forming a Community Panel to review our mirroring practices and guide the way mirrors are established and the presentation of mirrored content on the site." So sourceforge will resurrect their distribution of non-sourceforge software (like Firefox), potentially with malware included at no extra charge.
It looks like they're just waiting for the uproar to die down before they continue with these practices.
Notice how all the comments on this thread that might offend Dice management have been downvoted as "Troll"? Don't worry, though. It's just a coincidence. A company with the strong moral fiber of Dice would never interfere in a public forum.
The only thing dumber that this article is the police who blew up the pressure cooker. Maybe I'll put a big nitrogen tank in my back seat for a few weeks and see if I can meet some interesting new friends.
They don't affect the moon significantly. While they are large enough, the difference in density between the water above and below the wave is so small, and the speed is so slow, the gravitational or frictional effect is too small to matter.
However, the moon does affect the waves. They're caused by tidal forces.
In Obama's transparent government, much touted 8 years ago, shouldn't unclassified email be public in the first place? Surely they didn't change the rules, did they?
Why do we need Google to be our App Nanny? The faster they remove bad stuff, the more false positives they get in their removal process, and independent developers will lose out in the process.
You learn to do more automatically what you repeat, whether it's texting, playing the piano, typing, or tapdancing. It makes the brain-muscle interaction more efficient for that area. This is not news.

Hardware blames software, etc.
I don't use a password. Why is my url mobile.slashdot.com when I'm on a desktop?
Isn't "continuity in creative works" consistency and elegant evolution between software versions?
We are cattle.

That's not true. Some of us here work for a company that is losing money collecting data from end users.
I think it's a trade agreement, not a treaty, and only needs a majority vote.

We do allow prototype airplanes on public airports.
Because I prefer north up, so I use the map instead of navigation which does not have that option.

WinSCP

I think if you borrow money, you should pay it back.

A computer is not "destroyed" if you have to repair the MBR or reinstall Windows. It may be a pain to do, but the computer itself is fine.

Looks like my days on the internet are numbered.

Maybe they can follow through by increasing science research.
