That friend they mentioned was trying to be the one to put that info on the Internet. It has to start somewhere - things don't just magically appear online.
This. If a digital booklet had a high-res cover, I'm in. Every time I buy a new CD, I rip it (the physical disc is my backup). And then I scour the Internet trying to find something better than a blurry 400x400 image scanned from paper with halftone artifacts and edge fade all over the place. Sometimes I get lucky and find a high-res digital version from the label, but usually not. Scanning it myself doesn't actually improve the situation, due to the halftoning problem and being lazy.
And it's not like I want a ridiculously high resolution. I scale these all down to 500x500 and compress it reasonably since it's embedded in each track.
This rule does make a profit for shareholders. It's not single-payer insurance, it's either being forced to buy something from a private company or a fine.
I never said it was overpriced. I already have a (compatible) computer. I can't buy macOS for it. I can only buy a second computer.
giving Microsoft a pass for pulling features from its "base OS"
The base OS still exists. This is just a more basic OS with a common core. They're not charging $50 to put them back. They're charging $50 for the more fully featured base - because you're not paying for the OS in the first place. Right now, the idea that they even give this to OEMs is imaginary, but if they did they will probably not charge the OEMs for it. An OEM that currently pays to put Home on their hardware, could potentially give this away for free.
This does not cost an additional $50 - it's passing the price on to the customer instead of selling it to the OEM.
You're still not logically shoehorning the word "shill" here. Because I'm not even discussing the merits or supporting it. I'm just giving a much better definition.
Uber's a bad example, because they're more like a limo service than a taxi service. It's all about how hails and street pickups work that defines the difference.
If I claim I'm not a doctor and then tell you you have a certain illness, am I practicing medicine? If I claim I'm not a lawyer and draft up a legal document for you, am I practicing law?
I'm not defending them at all. You're just moving the goalposts on definitions when you say they took something away.
Apple doesn't do that with its OS because you simply can't buy it. It's "free" but only available bundled with expensive hardware. If either option is abusive, I vote that it's the latter. That's a much bigger than $50 penalty for a full-featured OS.
It's still in the OS. You're just not getting that version. And the OEM (if it makes it outside the surface) probably won't have to pay anything for it, but Windows 10 Pro is always an option.
This separate version already existed with RT, if only because of CPU compatibility.
And then someone will find a way to use Visual Studio as a generic app launcher. All it takes is a dummy application set up to spawn the program you want.
The only thing you're proving is that they are using creative license to classify this as a DDoS, when it is really legitimate comments that they don't have the infrastructure in place to support. Sure, there are bots posting the same thing over and over, but those can be filtered in the end.
According to those on Reddit, it is "DCIGroup.com". That web site, in turn, is under heavy DDoS attack and using Cloudflare to protect themselves. Some of the wording seems to come from CFIF.
I can add one more. Position is based on GPS instead of some sort of radar system once cars are in range - at least in the demo. GPS is somewhat accurate on the open road, but Google Maps gives an impression of much higher accuracy than is really possible in a moving vehicle. They snap you to the nearest road based on the curvature you follow compared to the documented curvature of the road (partly pioneered by this guy).
Most of the backups come from people coming to a complete stop, and the extremely slow acceleration for all but the front car once traffic is moving. That is, at the front light when there's multiple intersections backed up. You would greatly increase the capacity of those intersections, but probably at the cost of increasing the number of people willing to get on the road in the first place.
I have no idea, but they might be leasing rack space. They also probably collect payments from Austrian advertisers. Robbing from that is probably the limit of what the Austrian government can even do.

The headline still hasn't been fixed yet. So it must be. Msmash wouldn't just leave it there, right?

Community / Essentials edition is free.
Not sure that they would go to those lengths to block, but anything is possible.
This also means that ALL malware has permission to access this file.
US law already disagrees on both counts.

Do you work in sales?
They didn't take anything away - it's a new laptop. You never had it on that machine.
I'm not defending them, I'm just saying it loosely fits the definition of what you asked for.
All that means is it's time to scale up rather than call it a DDoS.

I'll spell it out real slow.
If it's on the store, it can run on a Windows 10 S machine for development.
However, that same machine can't run anything that VS compiles, because it's not in the store.
That's the topic/premise of this whole thread. Doesn't matter if it will ever happen, that was the scenario being discussed.
possible the decay of whatever is down in that tunnel will probably eat at the concrete over time
Yeah...isn't that what caused this collapse?
If you're running Visual Studio on Windows 10 S it is...
