You're wrong. The installation of the updates if under the control of the user. They will almost certainly be listed as optional, recommended updates. People with the default automatic updates settings will get them.
The behavior of the updates once installed is what ignores user preferences. It'll spy on you regardless of your settings (CEIP opt out).
They're literally ending support for Firefox plugins and making developers use Chrome's plugin API, with the promise that they'll consider extending that API to do some of the stuff the old Firefox API did, at some point.
Don't forget that you're supposed to pull the fuck over, stop, and let people pass you if you're holding them up. Trucks and RVs do this, but cyclists simple don't give a shit about anything but themselves.
Because anything falling in takes infinite time to reach the event horizon, at which point they cannot exit (or, from our point of view, continue in) and are trapped on the event horizon and cannot be detected at all.
This is correct for a black hole of a fixed size.
However, if we presume black holes exist, there must be a mechanism for their creation. If there is a mechanism for their creation, then there is a point at which there is no black hole and there is a point at which there is a black hole, with a non-zero radius to its event horizon. Thus, there is a mechanism by which a black hole grows and its event horizon expands. Whether or not this growth is fed by mass falling into a black hole doesn't matter. What matters is the fact that they grow.
Given a growing black hole with someone stuck forever at the event horizon (as viewed by an outside observer), the event horizon will expand as the black hole grows, enveloping the person who was stuck.
If you believe in the concept of a singularity, then this has the effect of destroying information. This is important because if we allow for the destruction of "information" then we're violating the laws of thermodynamics, which are kind of important to our understanding of things at the real-world level. If we throw out the concept of the singularity, then we lost the big bang and the picture of the universe as we "know" it gets thrown in the trash. This is why so many physicists do a lot of make believe experiments and math to try to "solve" the "problem" of black holes destroying information. The singularity and the big bang are religious icons to many.
If singularities destroy information, then there are huge implications that should affect the real world. We don't see these effects (we see the laws of thermodynamics holding true), thus either singularities don't destroy information or they don't exist.
Don't be sorry. Star Trek is pretty shitty. It's not very fun, it's not very sci-fi, it's not very funny, and it's not very interesting.
ToS is campy, cliched tripe and Shatner is the definition of "hamming it up". TnG is a bit better and can, at times, be taken seriously, but it's more soap opera than sci-fi. DS9 and the other spinoffs are universally shit. They're aimless in their struggle to stand out from ToS and TnG, and end up just being weighed down by the universe.
We ended up releasing lizards that fed on the pigeons. Then we released Chinese needle snakes to eat the lizards. To control the snakes, we released gorillas. Once wintertime rolled around, the gorillas simply froze to death.
No, shut down the businesses involved, sell off their assets to the highest bidders, and jail all high-level management for at least a decade.
Those rich fucks are huge flight risks and people within the companies will be scrambling to shred and burn evidence and cover up hidden assets, so time your sentencing announcement with the arrival time of a tank battalion at their offices.
But you do know you're allowed to uninstall all that shovel-ware, right?
Lenovo bakes shit into their ROM chips so BIOS/UEFI reinfects Windows machines with their shit every time you boot. There have been a slew of stories about it lately.
My typical incandescent bulbs last 5 or more years. I have several in my house that have gone over a decade (of regular use) without being replaced. I don't use tube fluorescents at home. Fuck that noise and fuck that color and fuck that flicker. My typical CFL bulbs lasted 6-18 months. Terrible flicker, color, and response time. These are pretty much the worst thing ever. I haven't had LED bulbs die out yet, but it'll be a decade or more before they win on total cost, assuming 0% on that initial savings. The color is better than CFL, but absolutely not as good as a decent incandescent. And I've used everything from no-name crap to Cree, Hue, and Hue Lux.
All that is ignoring the limitations of LED bulbs with regards to the housings you can put them in without baking them to death, the lack of traditional dimming controls, and the materials / disposal issue.
as the incandescent-fluorescent-CFL-LED progressed, cable-sat-stream will evolve.
Light bulbs went from good and cheap to shitty and expensive to less shitty and less expensive to decent and very expensive. How does that relate to tv/etc.? Shit don't jive.
You have your modem running DHCP? And NAT? And you expect to be able to move traffic from a client behind a wireless router behind a switch which also has the modem behind it?
Uh, a dumb switch on a single IP won't work for shit in that scenario. What fucking IP will your modem give you? What fucking IP will things on the switch get? What fucking IP will things on the router connected to the switch get? How will traffic to and from these IPs be routed outside of your network?

the people who designed it, developed it, and ordered its incorporation into the OS should all be flayed.

Let them?

I remember a similar problem with pigeons.
We ended up releasing lizards that fed on the pigeons.
Then we released Chinese needle snakes to eat the lizards.
To control the snakes, we released gorillas.
Once wintertime rolled around, the gorillas simply froze to death.
Considering we "lowly humans" modified it and dispersed it in the first place, I don't think stopping it decades later is a "win".
The only ones who get fucked are the ones the tanks roll toward.
Fact: Every major conflict in human history has been solved through violence.
