Adware already has a meaning. It's software which presents ads in exchange for not costing money, and you may be able to remove the ads by paying a fee. It does NOT mean apps which only show you ads. Android software is dominated by actual adware, and this seems a deliberate attempt to obfuscate that fact.
No new legislation needs to be passed in order for this to become illegal
Okay...
or get enforced.
...lol
If it were getting enforced against the largest offenders, who are easy to find because they are so very large, it would cease to be a major problem. QED, it's not getting enforced, or if it is the enforcement is wholly ineffectual (and likely designed to be so.
SolidWorks dominates the low-end features modeling space, it's commonly used in modeling objects to be machined (which is what it's for) or 3d printed (it's good for that, too.) It also does the machining process, which is to say, it generates the code that's sent to the CNC machine. And there is nothing which is even vaguely close to it on Linux, and it does not work well under WINE. It's unfortunate that the developers haven't written a decently compliant application (those tend to work under WINE) but it's still something of a standard.
What? Who told you that? Walls do NOT WORK. They don't. They never have. The great wall of china was a failure. The Berlin Wall only worked on poor people. And ever since the invention of the cannon, walls have been nothing more than a delaying tactic in a military context. Walls barely keep out the weather, even that requires constant maintenance.
There is a physical post office you can go to in both cases and retrieve your mail.
Yes, I have to go get it, and then I have to pay for the privilege (on a monthly basis.) How wonderful! Even more wonderful, they photograph flats but not packages, so I never know when I really want to go in!
Destruction is overkill. Just don't use the sucker. That doesn't really guarantee that nothing nefarious is happening, though. The CPU controls the IOMMU and whatever management CPU they hid in the CPU controls the CPU...
Because GitLab is less likely to do something illegal than a company that constantly has lawmakers looking for the slightest edge to sue them out of existence.
I don't want to stop something. It's the system that needs to change. I'm tired of feeding the wrong beast. If that means I suffer, well, I've been suffering anyway.
Like election fraud: All the "There's little to no election fraud occurring." claims turn out to really be: "There's little to no PROSECUTION of election fraud."
The fact is that republicans shout voter fraud, and then when we go looking for it we only find republicans. This absurd myth of Democrats winning because of voter fraud is the last, desperate measure of the tiny little minds of anti-progressives who cannot conceive of the idea that the majority do not agree with them. They manipulate elections at every level in order to win, and can not only conceive of the idea that the opposition is not doing the same, but then go on to seemingly forget that they have done it and then be surprised when the majority doesn't feel it's represented by government.
Illegal immigrants - what is under discussion with the wall - cost $54 billion to $115 billion per year.
That is very much open for debate, but I notice you've cherry-picked sources instead of aiming for an overview. This is my surprised face. Many estimates suggest that they far more than pay for their impact, and would do so even more if we wouldn't waste money trying to round them up.
I don't ask the workers at McDonald's how to manage my health, and I don't ask border guards how to address immigration. That's above their pay grade.
Ahh - you DO know better than those who do their job
If you ask a surgeon how to solve a health problem, he will tell you about the surgical solution, because that's the solution he knows. If you ask a border guard how to solve a border guarding problem, he's going to advocate guard equipment he's familiar with. But if we do indeed need increased border security, it makes a lot more sense to get it with intelligence than with a wall. Walls don't work. They never have worked. They never will work. They are made by men and circumvented by same. If you want security, the only way to get it is to make sure your neighbor doesn't want to take your stuff. Only then can you relax and enjoy it instead of walking around with a clenched asshole at all times.
Here's the problem - once they are in the US, then they can process through the system, and a lot of those (thanks to our sanctuary State and cities) just disappear.
Here's the problem — the official process for applying for asylum in the United States requires you to be within the United States. Also, we deny many people asylum who really are in need of it, who really are fleeing situations which we have created or helped to create, et cetera.
Something like 91% are ordered deported, but only 2% actually do so.
So what? Why are those people being ordered deported?
Would you rather keep your doors and windows locked, or leave everything wide open and install a few cameras inside?
That is a child's question. You can't get security by buying a lock. Sure, I use locks, but only to discourage children. Locks only deter casual thieves, the determined ones learn how to bypass or defeat them. The only way to get security is with defense in depth. By all means, patrol the border with drones, which is cheap and easy — in fact, it can be done mostly by computer, and you can bolster that cheaply with volunteer eyes on the video footage. But also, un-fuck US foreign policy which creates refugees. It doesn't matter whether we "should" have to help these people, which is a value judgement anyway. The fact is that if we don't, they will continue to cause problems — I don't pretend that there's no negative sides to what is happening. But it's not happening for no reason, either. People tend to want to stay put and build their lives. They leave because something impedes that. We are that thing. Let's stop being that thing, and then they won't even fucking be here.
Virtually all terrorists in the USA are home-grown. Taking history into account, the number which have come in from outside amount to a rounding error. (And most of them come from Saudi Arabia, but we're spending our effort banning people from OTHER countries.) Absolutely none of this is about security, let alone terrorism.
"Because the Americans are lazy and do poor work in comparison. That's how it was when I worked at a place that hired illegals."
Americans won't work hard for shit money. Illegals have been fucked so hard that our shit money looks like good money to them. So we get yet another race to the bottom as those willing to hire illegals outcompete those not willing to do so. We never would have got here in the first place without government enabling it, though. Deportation is used as a profit maximization tool. Just call ICE in to be there when you hand out the last check of the season. And they won't show up before then if you just grease the wheels correctly...
As usual you are peddling a logical fallacy, in this case a false dichotomy. There are lots of other options. Militarily the best option by far is to simply increase detection using drone overflight. Or we could just actually accept the refugees that our foreign and drug policy creates graciously, establishing new systems at the border to process them more rapidly. We shit directly on third world nations and then act surprised when people with shit on their lives show up at our border, and here you are acting as cheerleader.
"Well, it depends. If having people come on to my land means I have to pay tens of thousands a year for them,"
If it did you would have a point, but immigrants contribute to the economy in average, so it doesn't, and you don't.
"As far as ineffective, I keep hearing that from politicians, but the border patrol agents - those who actually work there daily - overwhelmingly say that a wall would work and help."
I don't ask the workers at McDonald's how to manage my health, and I don't ask border guards how to address immigration. That's above their pay grade.
Low end card 50-100 Mid range card 100-200 High end card 200+
People do not have unlimited amounts of money, and computer part purchases are compared to other purchases. Inflation is a thing, but people have emotional attachments to certain currency units.
This is too expensive to call mid range based on what average people actually pay for components. It's not about the performance level so much as the price position
Absolutely none of those things are true, and you've got a little Sony on your lip there, sport. Sony is evil and making excuses for them is stockholm syndrome.
Perhaps you have not heard of Moto. They make high end phones with large screens AND UNLOCKABLE BOOTLOADERS. And removable batteries, and headphone jacks. Buying Sony crap because you want quality is an idiot move. They haven't offered anything worth buying since the nineties, and haven't had the best of anything since the eighties.
"Additionally the USPS is required by federal law to provide service to everyone in the United States. The can't withhold service except for specific reasons, such as dog attacks."
You'd better tell the postal service about that, then. They don't deliver to my address, or several other addresses where I live at the end of my 7.57 mile road, even though they are literally at the other end of it. I don't think you know what you're talking about. They literally won't even come out as far as the pavement.
Nah, I'm over pissing in a cup, and I quit tobacco. Either way, a casino is no place for me. Not to mention that the whole point of such a business is to take advantage of people's addictions. Sick, sad world.
No, speed is the rub. You can't get really high speed RAM in ECC. Or if you can, it costs all the money. Compare like speeds and ECC costs much more than t% more.

I don't know if I'd characterize Solidworks as anything resembling 'low-end'. Maybe compared to CATIA...
That's the kind of thing I would call high-end, yeah.
If you're really clever, you might be able to spot it and then you'll understand why it's not actually a problem in the country today.
Since you're so clever, why don't you point it out? Because it looks to me like it is a real problem.
