Indeed. They're closing user sessions here to get a shorter boot, that's essentially curing the disease by killing the patient. If I have a long boot time from hibernate, I can go do something else for 5-10 minutes. But if I've lost my user sessions, I have to sit there and reopen all my windows before I have a usable desktop. They might technically have a shorter boot time with this strategy, but it will end up wasting more of the user's time.
Because they're going to track you either way. Mozilla needs to spend less time on this, and more time on implementing technical countermeasures to tracking.
You need to learn not to fall for it, not have people try to hide the whole world full of scammers from you. The same ability to sort out bullshit applies to prescription drugs, diets, vitamin supplements,
This is typical of all creative types. They never like the work they did last year. This has nothing to do with the quality of the work and everything to do with the psychology of creativity.
So it's your position that it's not rape, but it's still as bad as rape and should be punished as harshly as rape? I'd agree with that in principle, but not in practice.
What you call it shouldn't matter, but usually when people say something isn't rape, they're just making excuses for the rapist. Words have power, and if you use a word that doesn't carry the connotations rape does, you deemphasize the severity of the act. This is why I call you an apologist.
Thanks, but I don't watch Fox. The financial crisis had everything to do with being overleveraged, which is equivalent to printing money due to the way fractional reserve banking works.
If I were really a Fox tard, would I be calling for RICO prosecutions of bankers?
No. People have needs, both physical and psychological. If your actions destroy a mans livlihood and his hope, you have killed him just as surely as if you pulled the trigger yourself. Do you really think the only person responsible for the death of Mohamed Bouazizi is Mohamed Bouazizi? The people of Tunisia would disagree.
What about when a group of people form an organization with the intent of selling worthless securities with fraudulent ratings? Can we use RICO on them then?
In every case where I've seen violent protesters, the criminals have been the ones in power. Mostly because protestors are not likely to be violent, unless they're provoked by agents provocateur, which are only used by tyrannies.
Though I don't think laws regarding organized crime should be used unless there is an actual organization involved or clearly working for an organization.
I can think of a few such organizations. Goldman-Sachs, AIG, Countrywide, Bank of America, JP Morgan, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, and so on.
Intent does matter. If it was truly an accident, say a woman fell down the stairs and onto your fingers, then that's not rape. But if you actually intended to put your fingers there, it doesn't make a bit of difference if you didn't mean it as rape.
Yes, if size, noise, and power consumption weren't an issue, then a PC would make a perfectly capable alternative to an arduino for many projects. Why does that bother you?
There's at least some overlap in the capabilities of these devices. If you're already handy with Debian and want to build an LED twiddling project without spending too much time learning a new platform, then sure it would make perfect sense to buy a Pi instead of an Arduino.
You do have a point though, they are targeted at different sweet spots.

Sales tax does not work for securities and investments.
Really? Why not?
Stock traders would not exists because they would have to pay taxes every time the purchase something, even if they lose money
Sounds like it would work just fine then.
Breaking the law in private shows you to be far wiser than sacrificing yourself in a lost cause.
I came into this world, not chiefly to make this a good place to live in, but to live in it, be it good or bad.

Ahh, copyright infringement. Weasel word for government protectionism interfering in a free and consensual transaction between two individuals.

These days the "black hats" are more likely to be trustworthy than the "white hats".

I don't know which is stupider, the concept of the art project, or that they are distributing a list of links over the internet with a PDF file.
And when I tell them that America is little more than a banana republic these days, they call ME paranoid.
To defend bankers, it seems.

The controversial part is that it's not being used against bankers.
Because printing money doesn't kill people.
Bullshit. People died in the financial crisis of 2008. That blood is on the hands of bankers.

No, you said it wasn't as wrong. You're still an apologist for rapists.
That is pretty egregious.
