Someone should sue the warning label makers for choosing a word that seems like it should mean "not flammable" but in-fact means "flammable". Anyone who puts "inflammable" on a warning label is an idiot. It is a stupid dangerous word that should never be used.
Hitler was not a psychopath/sociopath, he was a deluded, arguably stupid, patriotic person who wanted to improve the world. And I could argue every one on that list is attributed to similar peoples/groups.
Racial hate is not propagated because of sociopathy, indeed I would say that sociopathy would be resistant against it. It is propagated on ignorance and stupidity.
But all the phones use different amounts of power. I just read today that while the google nexus uses a USB mini connector for power, the to versions 2012 and 2013 use different wattages, and are somewhat incompatible.
And yes a lot of this is just BS to get more money, but smartphones are not all the same, and this is good. Their is a wide range, and their is some necessary differences in their batteries and their charging cables.
That would only help if it significantly reduced the price. Pot is legal in some instances now, and it is cheaper it get illegally, from what I have seen. Also, people like illegal drugs, not legal ones, so it would just encourage Krokodil.
I don't believe it, what could ever possible be gained by Google compromising their email security? We already know that all the powers that be have access to everyone's gmail account, through a Google made interface, making compromising the security irrelevant.
But they would get less per customer, and raise their costs by dealing with more customers, then five days latter their competition lowers their rates, and they lose those customers, and probably have to 10 thousand dollars of servers in a closets and give out termination bonuses for the employees they no longer need.
No, in no scenario would their ever be any reason a competent business man would want to do what you are suggesting.
I guess, you might argue that not all business men are all perfect business men. You might argue that their might exist a few incompetent business men, in any given field, who might make the mistake of doing as you say. But you would think that they would get weeded out overtime
Or just go with the industry and make more profit. Why would a business want to undercut itself? And make less profit? I think it would be more logical to assume that businesses will look out for their own best interest and try and get as much profit as possible.
OK, but that does not really seem to be the main issue here. If the doctors needed to proscribe anything, they could proscribe some vitamin C or whatever.
Doctors have dozens of alternative general medications that would do less damage than prescribing antibiotics.
I could live with the design choices, if they at least launched them when they were ready. The last Ubuntu I installed included the horrendously unready beta Grub 2, that made by PC boot 10 times slower, and the completely unconfigurable and unusable Unity.
The law is written in such a way that you, me, and everyone one else on the planet breaks it at least a few times a day. Not only that but most laws are written is such a general, dependent on opinion way that that it is impossible not to be breaking the law if the authority in charge deems it so. Only ass hats take advantage of this and actually charge innocent people with the stupid laws that they break.
By any and all definitions, as far as I am aware. "Noun The software that supports a computer's basic functions, such as scheduling tasks, executing applications, and controlling peripherals." The the BIOS executes at least one program (normally THE OS, in this instance Zork), and controls a computers basic functions and peripherals (input/output), as well as abstracting and standardizing the use of the hardware.
You cannot run without a OS, something has to manage the hardware and execute programs. And that thing that does that (here is a hint, Zork is not doing this) is the OS.
But what do they define as "identity"? Can they collect your address, or at least guess at it? What about your first or last name, your credit card, your SSN, your IP address. At what point do they have to stop, because one inch more is your "identity".
I imagine their stopping point is long after it would be easy to compute your identity from the information they have already gathered.
The more bigger of a threat that China is, and the more hacking groups break into goverment files the more power the NSA is given, and they get the benifit of spying on themselves.
So it is a win/win to compromise your own systems.
The problem is only solved if anyone does this. Scratch that, everyone does this. Good luck getting 80 million people to do with with no way to know if it would solve their backdoor problem.
But if he had actually been contacted by the authorities the answer would of simply been "NO", as nodding his head at that moment would of meant going to jail, if not worse.

No idiocy, and wanting to do good got us those.

Also, I use micro USB, and it kindof sucks.

With a standard you can have confidence that everyone's implementation of SHA-3 has been compromised and crippled by the NSA.

No, I would say the premise was that it has to satisfy some group of people, which it increasingly does not.

So the EFI in this case is an OS.
Zork cannot manage hardware, nor execute programs, and since the EFI is doing this is is just a slimmed down OS.
It is actually against Christian and Jewish law, and since their book is just a offshoot of the new Testament they have it as well.
No seriously.
This is basically just putting Zork in your start-up directory in window.

I do not know about that. You can hook an eternal storage medium up to USB 3 or SATA whatever and get internal hard-drive range speeds.
So you are suggestion that fundamentalists loose their faith constantly, as it is shattered by the light of reason and evidence?
I am pretty sure we have "supported by mounds of empirical evidence" that suggest that it is far from fragile.
The problem is only solved if anyone does this. Scratch that, everyone does this.

If they asked him too, you can be pretty sure that he complied.
