Having a unique name, searching it provides me with joy, for that is of course also something I gamed, just in case some prospective employer wants to see what I'm up to. Me being close buddies with Bruce Schneier is getting old, though, I need a new BFF.
No, I don't consider it a hassle. Then again, I usually don't need to redo my whole settings, clean up the system from spyware that miraculously got turned back on and hunt down a few new drivers for the next couple days whenever I install a new Ubuntu kernel.
It's entertaining. Sure, setup is a bit of a bore, but it's creative. Some paint, some sculpt, I create profiles. It's fun and we're a really awesome shared house by now, though Melissa is currently sick with the flu. We're all very worried, last night the fever went really high.
This is also the reason why there are companies where crunch is the norm and yet quality is low, yet there are companies where work-life-balance is a reality and quality is high.
Well, guess who leaves the former to work for the latter? And given that the latter gets to choose, they choose the highest quality personnel, leaving mediocre and outright crappy programmers for those companies that treat their personnel like garbage.
Embedded development is its own little beast. One of the problems you run into is that you need someone who is an electrical engineer as much (or even more than) he is a programmer. When you hire a "normal" programmer for embedded work, you're in for a world of hurt. There are things in embedded (like, say, signal travel time) that don't apply in normal programming environments.
And with IoT becoming a veritable security nightmare, you might see what problem you're facing. Care to show me the IT security person that also happens to at least understand basic EE?
Or enjoy playing with them. Poison their data well. Create false information about yourself. Get creative and have exciting new hobbies. Have fun with it and explore the exiting world of being a product. Create a mail address for every possible occasion where you might need one and watch how it travels through the various places. Respond to their "quality assurance" test and enter as much false information as you can. Create 2, 3, 10 personas and let them gain a rich and interesting life. One of mine is for example a freeclimber and has shared many photos on instagram of his travels around the world. Google pix helps. Of course, photoshop it sufficiently to thwart algorithms trying to match it with the original. That's fairly easy and can be done by laymen by now. Create new and exciting landscapes in your back yard!
Not all is lost, and you can have a lot of fun duping corporations into trashing their data hive with your fakes. I don't know about you, but it sure entertains me to see corporations believe in the existence of a person that only exists in my head.
Maybe it's time to create a webpage dedicated to showing off how you could dupe data collectors into believing your forgeries.
Ok, how many hurricanes have to devastate the land before we can talk about there might be something wrong? It's not like like we're in any hurry, it's probably too late already anyway.
Another thing I don't want to see happening is making the same stupid mistake twice. Failing once is a learning experience. Failing again for the same reason shows that you're unable or unwilling to learn.

Maybe that's why.

Microsoft begins rolling back Windows 10 failed creators update
Where does my ISP get the info from where I go from the VPNs and TOR?

Oh, I actually only create fake profiles. I, myself, don't exist. At least as far as Facebook, Twitter and all the others are concerned.
As long as what he says is right, I don't mind someone pointing to his own webpage.
Here, he will get the relevant feedback. If he's full of shit, it's unlikely that people will refrain for long from telling him.

More words: It may work today. It might work tomorrow. It will bite you in the ass next week. Go with the times or you'll go come the time.

At the very least it's a good reason to start looking into the reason behind it.

Slackers, there's money to be made!
I'm not sure, but I doubt it's due to Trump. IIRC, for a hurricane to form, you need cold, not hot air.

The only thing that bothers me is that being "fixed" by MS is usually done in the veterinary sense.
Hush! You know it's like with Hastur and Beetlejuice, if you say it too often he'll come!
Indirectly, by becoming a much bigger flaw. Why bother climbing over the wall if there's a hole in it?
"More pleasant".
Another reminder that the comparative needn't be superior to the positive.
3) I get to control what data is being sent.
Until then, keep your crap.
Critical first-world problem is an oxymoron.
MS in the US or MS in Ireland?
If you say "doesn't matter", realize that SAP is based in Germany, and we'd want to see some data you have over there. Schnell!
Correct, but I still miss any kind of indication that someone controls both endpoints.
