No, he's you're equating a crowd-sourced, Orwellian dragnet to a legal request for records relating to an individual likely committing crimes.
There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.
We went through 8 years of Obama where anything bad was blamed on Bush and his policies, yet anything good was credited to Obama, often in advance and for no actual reason (e.g., the Nobel Peace Prize).
Yet even before Trump took office, he was taking blame for shit Obama did or put into motion. Many of the things he was blamed for were simply made up. And when he does something good, no one gives him credit.
The media dug their own graves during the 2-year long campaign cycle (thanks to, Hillary campaigning a fucking year early), and now their spinning in them since that's what they do best.
Both factually (Google it - "In what appeared to be a terrorist attack, a truck plowed into a crowd on a street and crashed into a department store in central Stockholm on Friday.") and rhetorically (this Anti-Trump spin job of a headline attached to a fairly neutral summary is far less significant than another terrorist attack in fragile Europe).
The headline is "Employers Added Just 98,000 Jobs in March Below Expectations of 180,000". The summary starts with "Employers slowed their pace of hiring while the unemployment rate fell to the lowest level in almost a decade in March". The rest of the summary also explains that March's growth numbers were likely impacted by January and February having had larger-than-expected numbers, the big storms in the midwest, etc.
The headline is very negative while the summary is fairly neutral. The headline could have also been spun to be positive, such as "98,000 Jobs Added As Unemployment Hits Decade Low", but of course that doesn't generate as many clicks.
The parent AC is correct. This shit doesn't belong on Slashdot and the headline is engineered to be negative.
Youtube is required to automatically respond to DMCA notices from small kids just like the do for the big boy MAFIAA types. Of course they don't, because Joe Schmoe can't inject his content into the audio/video matching bots which are the main anevue of blocking shit on Youtube now.
And when corps block videos the unpaid ad revenue can get redirected to them. I don't know if it always happens or if you have to be a large enough fish to get such a result in your favor, but it does happen. Youtube doesn't pay out ad revenue immediately.
The original owner can file a takedown claim once they see it copied to other channels. The copiers need to see the video, know that it's going viral, upload it to an account they have monetized (10,000 views or more), and wait for the money to come in.
In the time it takes the copiers (and there will be multiple competing with each other), the original video is still "going viral". By the time the copier channels get 10,000 views they'll be buried in the search results or have their shit taken down.
I suggested a similar approach when this shit was blowing up, but I suggested it on a per-video basis. Unless Google adds additional policing of accounts, this move won't help much. They'll have prepped 10,000 view accounts ready to go, or they'll farm up 10,000 views on new accounts with bots.
Was your iPod affected by a recall that was forced under threat of suit / government action? (I'm guessing: Yes.) Was your HP laptop? (I'm guessing: No, but it should have been.)
I will soon get 2 days per month, plus 1 day of sick/family leave.
The sick leave never maxes out. The vacation maxes out at 2 years of accrual (48 days). Plus I get all the holidays. I've never had any pushback when trying to use it, and the last couple of times I used it I made it a point to be mostly out of contact and not check emails.
I'm flexible about scheduling time off in advance, but if someone ever told me I couldn't use my vacation time to the point where I stopped accruing I'd send my employer a bill and go on strike immediately. What the fuck would your employer do if you got a summons for jury duty?
If you're consuming someone else's API to get at someone else's data, you're not a developer, you're a consumer. Developers won't abandon a platform/service if there's money to be made. They'll jump through tons of hoops. Look at iOS and the AppStore. Look at Facebook. Twitter may have bungled their API repeatedly, but if the service and data were useful enough to develop for, developers would still do so.
Twitter killed itself with its politics, "Trust & Safety Council", ads, and incessant changes to the "feed" that make it harder to see shit from people you follow and filled your feed up with retweets, likes, and more ads. All of this has led to fewer users and less "engagement" from the users who are still around. The internet keeps telling me that everyone has moved on to Snapchat for their pointless, daily trivialities (which is what Twitter was for).
You are not a denier but an idiot. And you are nt worth down modding, what would be the point? We rather mod the posts up that are good, informative, insightfull etc. instead of wasting mod points on idiots like you.
Why did you buy that account? Did you really think a low UID on Slashdot was worth it? You've been gone for some time, and we enjoyed your absence.
Why did you come back? Or, are you someone who purchased the account after the first clown who purchased it left? I'm not "worth" down modding because you don't have the mod points. I dare you to refute anything I've said.
Hillary didn't lose though. She won the popular vote.
It was the non-democratic electoral college who ignored the popular vote and voted in Trump.
the only loser here is America's "Democracy"
She didn't win the popular vote. She did get a plurality of it, but that doesn't equate to winning. Especially since the President isn't elected by popular vote. The electors rightfully ignored the popular vote and voted faithfully. Faithless electors flipping the result of the election would have been ruinous. I'm glad you put democracy in quotes, because America is not a direct democracy and never has been. If you don't like it, change the Constitution.
What? Looking at those networks (and yes, including Fox News as the other AC suggested) seems to CONFIRM the conspiracy.
Saying something is a conspiracy isn't saying it's bullshit. It's saying it's a clandestine plot. Whether or not it's true doesn't affect whether it should be called a conspiracy or not.
No. "Reduced by half" means you reduce X by one half of X, yielding one half of X. X - 1/2 X = 1/2 X
"Increased by a factor of 2" means you increase X by two X, yielding three X. X + 2 X = 3 X
Nearly everyone uses "increased by a factor of 2" incorrectly, however. They typically add one to the "factor of". When they say something has increased by a factor of 2, they mean it has increased by a factor of one and is now double what it used to be. They neglect the word "by", which means the following clause indicates the amount of change and not the new result.

If you see something, say something, citizen!
I actually made the "oooooh" face reading these 2 comments. Thanks for the lulz.

Binary guy is correct for once.

What if you're watching an anime cooking show while you're cooking? I don't think there are any on Netflix, though.

The jig is up on the "gig" economy. I can't wait for it to completely collapse. I hope the short-term rental economy goes next.
They don't need to.

How do you disable the telemetry in Enterprise? From what I see, it's still limited to "Basic" on both Windows 10 Enterprise and Windows Server 2016.
Is this limited to the "LTSB" versions of Windows 10? What about 2016?
Does Enterprise offer a "fuck you, don't auto update" setting?
No.
