That leaves about 40%-50% of the increase that can't be clearly attributed to any specific cause. Objective research by people not funded by political entities would be helpful.
that should leave about 30-50% that you haven't accounted for.
So maybe a typo or a brainfart while doing his adding but it clearly says right there. If you can't be bothered reading the comment fully then you have no business either.
99% of the stores would have to close shop. Including car dealerships.
As opposed to 100% foreign crap? According to a quick google search India produced over 4 million cars last year (http://www.oica.net/category/production-statistics/). It doesn't say they have to be Indian things just made in India. All apple would need to do is open a factory to make 30% of iphones sold in India. Except apple don't make things they pay others bottom dollar to make it as cheap as possible and I guess India isn't cheap enough.
...that brainwashes people to believe somehow the people in the country you belong to are more important than anyone else
And it is, to me, and where you live should be to you. The economy somewhere else is of little consequence to me when the economy around me is falling apart. So what if making stuff locally costs a bit more? When everyone has jobs and money is moving around it doesn't matter. It's not like apple sell their wares for cost + a reasonable profit, no they get their stuff made as cheaply as possible then jack the price up to literally the highest they can get away with and pocket the difference. Would you not prefer to support your neighbor having a job than support his welfare because his factory job has been moved to china where the people will work for a fraction of the money. I suppose you won't mind when you get sacked because they can get someone somewhere else to do whatever you do cheaper. I mean they're just as important, right?
Well I'm not sure what a "good lying job" is, but... solution my ass. India is a huge exporter and makes lots of money out of selling things overseas, but they don't want imported goods sold in their own country? If other countries adopted this kind of measure, India would suffer more than most countries.
Where did it say they don't want imported goods. What I read was if a foreign company wants to set up shop 30% of value of the goods needs to be made in india. Seems fair enough to me, as it stands every apple store has almost 100% of the value of products made in china.
Why do you think it's ok to abuse the shit out the world like that? These guys over here will work for nothing so we can slave them, then take the product and sell it for way way more than it cost to make over to these guys who have lots of money (but not for long because all the jobs are being fucked off overseas because it cheaper.) Meanwhile we're taking in all the money from underpaying and overcharging. If you really want a global market then a person in chinatown, china needs to get paid the same as a person in bumsville, usa or ruskigrad, russia etc and the product should cost the same no matter where you go. But they don't do they? They abuse the system from all sides making their huge pile of money huger and by extension making everyone else poorer. Fuck this so called 'globalism'.
Why don't you be intellectually honest by changing your "pro-choice" terminology to "pro-abortion" because that's what it is all about.
Why don't you be intellectually honest and admit that you don't care one iota about the life of the baby or mother/father and only give a shit that the baby is born, nothing else matters just that the baby is born. Call yourself pro-birth.
If you don't read the popups before dismissing them then no wonder bad shit happens. They are there for a reason. It barely takes a second and no effort to see what it's saying before deciding to dismiss it or act on it. So shit one for you, go back to whatever you were on before and maybe you can take half a second to see what the computer is trying to tell you next time but don't expect any sympathy from anyone because you can't be arsed to read.
So you worried about people sinking a nuclear powered ship on purpose? To what? Irradiate the ocean or something? How is it a security issue? Why is a diesel powered ship not just as vulnerable with just as big a potential impact with the release of god knows how many gallons of bunker fuel. Why is that ok but a nuclear powered vessel is not? That's what I'm trying to get to the bottom of here with you, and you don't seem to have an actual answer.
You are completely correct and don't get me wrong I'm not trying to justify their behaviour in the slightest. All I'm saying is the fiasco could have also been avoided if people read the messages.
But if you know something bad is coming that you are able to avoid but don't. That's on you. Sure I'm in the wrong for throwing the punch to begin with but you could've easily not been punched.
You can bet your bottom dollar that someone WILL come up with an app that Google can't readily block that does the same functionality (since they take lat-long and I can get that from the GPS edge...)
Way back when we used this big yellow Garmin GPS that my dad got for Gliding. Basically you put in the lat long of where you want to go and it points at it. It's up to you to figure out what roads to use. Always made trips more interesting without ever getting really lost. Good times. Bring them back.
No, there won't be "high paid computer science guys". The only way to get a high pay is to have anything to do with finance or management. Anyone who actually creates a product is paid pebbles, only pushing numbers counts!
Oh come on now.. you totally left out the big American dream of being a professional athlete! Where else can you be pain millions straight out of college solely based on your physical skills (and also winning the genetics lottery).
The physical skills of running and catching really are worth a lot.
They announced they'd made it a recommended update and it would auto push out to everyone with auto updates on.
I think the important question is whether they announced it to the people who actually needed to know, in a way those people would understand, so those people could choose to act on that information by declining the update it if they didn't want it.
If I tell you I'm going to punch you, remind you that I'm going to punch you, tell you exactly when I'm going to punch you, is it really my fault if you get punched?
Well... Yes. Yes, it is.
If you try to do that, you shouldn't be surprised if I defend myself and/or call the cops.
They announced it all over the place, including on peoples computers, they can't force the information into peoples heads. Making it a recommend thing in the first place is dodgy as fuck but they did what they could to let people know.
And of course if I said I was going to punch you in the face you would do something to stop me (unless you wanted it of course) but it would go something like
Me- I'm going to punch you in the face, if you don't want me to say "Don't punch me in the face"
You- Don't punch me in the face
Me- Are you sure you don't want me to
You- Don't punch me in the face
Me- Are you really sure
You - Don't punch me in the face
Me- Ok, I won't punch you in the face
That's essentially the conversation you need to have with windows except replace punch in the face with install win10.
Exactly, they won't 'feel' pain any more than they can 'hear' sounds. It's just another stream of ones and zeros coming from a contact sensor with three pressure settings.
It's like a notification that pops up that says "you have new email". You wouldn't expect the system to delete your email if you click on the 'x' to close the notification, would you? Of course not.
I also wouldn't expect the e-mail client I've been happily using for years to one day automatically schedule an update that reorganised its whole UI, started randomly cancelling e-mails I was in the middle of writing to reload itself every now and then, started quietly forwarding my mails to some unknown third party, and corrupted 25% of my saved mail if I tried to back the update out, and then just pop up a random notice not even asking for my active consent to go ahead but just telling me how I'm going to be screwed unless I click the tiny text hidden in the middle of the dialog instead of any of the controls I've been using for those past few years.
To be fair it's not like ms have been all that secretive about it. They've been making a big deal about getting everyone on 10 for a while. They announced they'd made it a recommended update and it would auto push out to everyone with auto updates on. The big pop up boxes telling you exactly when it's going to happen. If it gets you it's your own fault. If I tell you I'm going to punch you, remind you that I'm going to punch you, tell you exactly when I'm going to punch you, is it really my fault if you get punched?
Almost seems like they were betting on the vetted response for popups, which is to hit the X immediately after it pops up.
Well that's the fault of all the twats who don't read what they say. The same ones who just click next on any crap they install and end up installing 10 things for every one they want.
Agreed. Fuck you, Microsoft. I had already trained my 9yo son to press the X to close the upgrade window whenever he might see it (he uses my computer more than I). Saturday morning, Windows 10 was installed. Goddamn it.
Well then you done fucked up. Teach your lad to actually read the boxes and you'd notice that it's telling you it's scheduled it not asking you to schedule it. Clicking the red x does nothing but dismiss the window like it always does, same way closing an explorer window doesn't delete your files. I'll agree it's shady as fuck them scheduling it on their own but if you'd only read the box you could've easily stopped it.
Ok, goal post moved, no longer about security? Ships sink. And what's worse in those situations? A self contained reactor that is highly pressure resistant or a massive fuel tanks full of thick bunker fuel that can leak into the ocean? Granted you don't want either but a huge oil spill is by no means better. You do know these things don't just explode and modern designs are practically impossible to meltdown? Come on, what actual legitimate concerns do you have over scary nuclear zomg!
Basically we can have something that if maintained properly is practically pollution free and if not can be bad or we have something that if maintained properly has massive amounts of pollution and if not can be just as bad. You want the second because fuck the planet, right? Or is it just feverish terror at them nukes and no good can ever come of it?

Sounds about right. I think no matter what the system it's the people that are the problem. The few fuck it up for the many.
Stores being required to sell 30% domestic crap.
99% of the stores would have to close shop. Including car dealerships.

Just in case anyone has ever wondered if our economy has anything to do with reality...
Oh oh oh oh I know this one........No?

Does your system run any MS OSes newer than DOS? Then you have Windows Malware.
I was hoping that, in the context of the current discussion, you would understand that I meant the "Telemetry" malware that comes from MICROSOFT.
He was probably hoping in context you'd realise that meant no.
Almost seems like they were betting on the vetted response for popups, which is to hit the X immediately after it pops up.
Well that's the fault of all the twats who don't read what they say. The same ones who just click next on any crap they install and end up installing 10 things for every one they want.
A typical malware trick, make the close button install the stuff.
Criminals.
Close button does nothing but dismiss the window, same as it ever did.
Agreed. Fuck you, Microsoft. I had already trained my 9yo son to press the X to close the upgrade window whenever he might see it (he uses my computer more than I). Saturday morning, Windows 10 was installed. Goddamn it.
