Because after we fill girls' head with garbage about needing to be tall and thin, needing to wear high heels and makeup and the rest of it; getting them to follow celebrities who do the above... THIS is a problem.
Baby steps.
I'm sure every single girl wants to look like an unattractive female scientist wearing a labcoat and geeky safety equipment and looking plain. Especially after the garbage everyone else is throwing into their head.
A site does something which goes against youtube's TOS - Google changes something in Youtube to block it - and sends a letter to the owner of the website. So?
If you Google it - you still get search results, and Google didn't do any tricks which we find immoral.
Why is this an article? What were we expecting? How could Google have dealth with it better?
Lets see, when i was in primary school, there was Windows 3.1 and Windows 95. Nothing at all changed in the meanwhile, no interface changes whatsoever.
The message he tried to put really looked like the sort of thing bots post. I'm not surprised at all an automated spam filter blocked it. He did mention 11 different 3rd party websites in it, so its not too amazing that it flagged.
But as usual facebook is run by evil commies who want to oppress our free speech and all that.
Yandex is a good backup for the ever-increasing list of topics which "america" fears and feels it must "censor" in order to maintain the red-white-and-blue wall.
Incorrect. I'm Maltese.
Also are you suggesting that a russian website is less prone to censorship? What an interesting role reversal.
I'm quite sure that most people who use Google Chrome do so after finding out about it because they use Google as a search engine.
So its basically the other way around.
Moreoever, you can change the default search engine, so WOW, issue solved!
Also the only reason I ever heard of Yandex was because I saw their scraper on my website. I had never heard about it before. I guess Google is doing a GREAT job choking them.
They have less DISCOVERED flaws that's true. But it doesn't mean there aren't many which can be discovered and exploited.
And quite frankly their virus-response is crappy. It took ages for them to patch something that Oracle had patched a while ago. I think that's the main issue here - they needed a fire lit underneath them, and even then they worked sluggishly.
So normal people who get infringed on copyright need to take a loan or something similar (I don't have a couple hundred dollars which I could lose against better lawers) - but large companies who make billions a year - they just might be able to afford it. Cost of doing buisiness.
And of course all pornography websites would be on xxx. For all descriptions of pornography. Which also includes for example artistic nudes (for some people or some jurisdictions). All you're doing is sweeping it under the rug.
Every single time I see one of these stupid bills the first thing that comes to mind is 'won't work.
You can set up the most intelligent, crazy whitelist type system in the world, then it'll get thwarted by someone sending an email, or someone posting something on a forum. And that's assuming that the blocking itself works (hint: it doesn't).
There are too many sites on the internet, there is too much of a wide definition of what is porn or not, and if you block agenericpornsite (blacklist), then someone will come up with anothergenericpornsite - and your filter is useless. The fact that you can get domain names pretty cheaply doesn't help either.
While we're here I'd like a system which excludes all malware please. K thnx.

I don't see why this article is of interest.

This is a list of hardware models which have been user tested to work with ubuntu. I assume edubuntu will work just as well.

Its not like he (and apple) weren't rolling in cash before Jobs died...

I know quite a few dictators who would agree with this brilliant idea. Much easier to find the activists this way.
We should set about to implementing it right away!
We cannot allow a cyber-war gap.

Surely what we're making here is an ultrasonic screwdriver.
To pick up girls at Starbucks?
You're probably american.

Ah well, no harm done!
I wonder if he will be able to sue the US government for the millions/billions lost in buisiness.
That's how Science works.
You build a model, you predict things, you test it. If it fails, you fix your model, you test it again.
Now we'll see how his next prediction holds and we can then judge his model
I don't know about your definition of secure...

"PC Viruses" actually.
Which makes little sense, since Macs used to run on PowerPC machines.
Cthulhu doesn't exist, however we can all agree that an Eldritch Abdomination is bad.
Next time they should install a proprietry and closed OS on these laptops, thereby increasing their price and enforcing minimum hardware requirements.

So if you buy it after the price drops to a low level, you'll have to stay with the crappy ending.

Traditionally you grabbed your torch and pitchfork, met with your friends and stormed their mansion.
