I ended up designing one like it for my own split keyboard. Works great, feels great. Just don't spill soda on it.
I'm also a fan of the Microsoft Natural layout. I got one back in 1994 that lasted for 15 years before the keys began malfunctioning, and I had to throw it out, sadly.
That's what the NSA says, when they demand authority to anal-search your data. So, no, it's not about a criterion of "nothing to hide". Rather, it's about the expectation and right of privacy. Public servants (the police) doing their public duty are a public matter, and therefore have no right of privacy, and are subject to public scrutiny.
My point, as you have fucking confirmed, is that he got only two years. Other guys in Russia have gotten worse for being in an opposition party. That's paradoxical with the situation in the U.S., where hackers get extremely (some would say stupidly) heavy sentences, but being in the opposition party is essentially a non-issue. We have been discussing this in the thread here.
If he had been part of an 'opposition party', he'd also have been charged with embezzlement, given 10 years in jail, and forbidden from running for office, ever. That seems to be standard operating practice in Russia lately.
That's good, and I recognize the opportunities and applaud their initiative. However, the comment that I referenced was not in the context of renewable energy. Rather, it was the opposite. Some Indian minister was rejecting environmental concerns because they would unduly (in his eyes) limit economic opportunities for India. He actually said something along the lines of "what, the brown people don't get the same opportunities to grow their economies as western countries?" (Yes, he actually used the term "brown people", which is why it stuck in my mind.) He meant that western countries had grown their industrial capabilities without caring about the environment, and so now India should be able to do likewise.
Like I wrote earlier, there are all kinds of factions within government, and so my reference was about only one highly-placed guy In India speaking. We've got people like that in the U.S., absolutely. It's nice that India is making progress on renewable energy.
Nope. You can find this opinion all over the world, including places such as India. Their government does not want their economic opportunities limited by environmental considerations. They have literally phrased it as a "brown people" versus "white people" clash, at times. (No, I don't have the citation. It was in the context of one of the environmental summit meetings.)
Let's face it, most big governments (U.S. and India included) contain factions/segments that care about different things. Some are responsible for growing the economy, and others are responsible for fostering the heath of the citizenry. The economics faction often looks in the short-term, and makes decisions that ignore health concerns. (e.g. Trump wanting to dig more coal, or Sarah Palin's supporters chanting "drill baby, drill!") There are tradeoffs, and GP has expressed the main one with the motorbikes in Hanoi.
Eventually, though, there comes an environmental crisis, and then everyone realizes they've been poisoning themselves.
I read about this in the news a couple of days ago. She posted a message on social media before the event saying that the boyfriend thought it up. So, it's possible that she was lying about it, but if so, she started lying about it before the fact.
I'm with qbast on this one. I don't know how a couple would pull this off without agreement of some kind. This involved a high level of stupidity.
There are douchebags on both sides. (Let's face it, there are only two main choices in U.S. politics, but that's a separate issue.) This guy is just the current example-of-the-day. Any of these pols that engages in self-promoting hyperbole is part of the problem, no matter the party affiliation.
The fact that you assumed this was an example of an "opponent" seems telling, though.
Okay, but did they just convince the employees to continue without pay for a while, or did they lie about the payments? The twist in this case is that the company faked a payment or payments. That's pretty scummy.
... but forget social media. You need to hurt them in the hip pocket.
I would like to point out that it was social media that hurt United Airlines in the hip pocket, after they forcibly ejected that doctor from an airplane, and tried to blow it off like he was some unruly asshole. So, outing bad behaviors in public may help achieve the monetary effect.

Doesn't matter who funded more of NASA. The joke only works when it involves baiting the people in control. See:
X is in control, and wants Y.
Tell them Y is on Mars.
Hilarity ensues.
The GOP is in control, so they get to be the butt of the jokes. Too bad.
TFA could not be bothered to clarify this, apparently, but the laws in question are Chinese laws.
At first I thought this was about U.S. cybersecurity laws, and I was thinking "WTF?"
This guy posted a nice little tenting system made out of craft foam sheets:

It is a matter of time control.
United Airlines, is that you?

You mean, "hacking in the U.S." equals "ten years in jail"? Exactly so.

So, Palm dismisses Apple. Apple iPhone drives Palm out of business.
Whole Foods dismisses Amazon. Amazon buys Whole Foods.
Sounds like Whole Foods turned out to be a necessary solution, unlike Palm. I don't think there is a good analogy between Palm and Whole Foods.
Yeah. Can we get a 'woosh'?
Fewer and fewer things are.

Today's Tom Sawyer.
Mean, mean pride.
Conan, what is best in life?
To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of der women!
"Sad."
I know, right? Frigging William Shakespeare.
It seems not to bode well, for the legacy of Mustafa Kemal Attaturk.
