Considering the security measures required to get into a stadium in france vs a group of protesters and someone wandering up with a suicide vest strapped to them. Well, there does appear to be a security risk to general people. Those protests would be a splody-dopes dream.
Common knowledge, it doesn't require a citation. Want a recent pop culture example? The Zoe Post, and examine the media's stories on it. In nearly every case, the stories are factually wrong, even though the story will cite(the zoe post) and make incorrect statements and claim they're factual.
Kinda the sweet spot for hybrid-electric drives, no?
Well trains aren't hybrid electric, but they're diesel driven electric. A few companies like Freightliner and Mack have been messing around with it for a few years, but there's problems mainly to do with the raw torque requirements for trucks, especially on heavy grade pulls. One of the solutions(can't remember if it was Mack or Freightliner), went with both. Diesel-electric for long cruising and diesel drive only for startup pulling and grades.
Seems to me it's closer to paraphrasing. On top of that, the elaborated sentence can also imply that if you know that a crisis exists and you postpone it for whatever reason(time/public backlash/money/others don't believe it's urgent/etc), you can then use that opportunity to implement things that you wouldn't be able to do so before. That also includes implementing things that the general public would find highly objectionable, but would allow in a crisis moment. Or to ram though legislation that would have failed previously.
So because there is a non-zero chance of a third party maliciously infecting a website, you block all ads everywhere? Why not just not use the Internet at all since any website can be compromised in ways other than ads?
That's easy, websites that serve malware are exceptionally rare. Ads that serve malware are not. Why do you think there's a proliferation of ad blocking software.
When does that actually, and more importantly, deliberately by the web site, happen?
Often enough that if you're letting ads be served to you, you're just waiting to get malware from something. Whether it's via flash, java, javascript, silverlight, css vulnerabilities, or one of two dozen other things.
What exactly is the business model for "gimme gimme gimme"? Adblockers have existed before all the JavaScript tracking. Even if it were a simple static image you'd bitch that it was take bandwidth, and even if it were just text you'd bitch it was taking up space on your monitor. Tracking is just a scape-goat, the real issue is people are self-entitled and too used to getting things 'for free'.
Well first, you can put down the weed. Second, you can then realize that my comment didn't have anything to do with tracking. That, is something completely different.
Lining bird cages of course. But some papers actually do have a good opinion/columnist/consumer affairs section, and for some newspapers that's their only redeeming part.
Great, so I'll expect a consumers bill of rights to pop up saying that any company forthwith that knowingly or unknowingly serves ads which infect a machine with form of malware/keylogger/botnet/ransomware/etc are responsible for damages, removal, and restoration of said individuals software/documents/etc, plus a min. $500 fine payable to said person for time lost.
It didn't work out for the Globe and Mail or the Toronto Star here in Canada, so you'd be right it didn't work. Then again, news papers are bleeding print subs and online viewership everywhere. Mainly because the media is either shilling for their buddies w/o disclosing it, or people can find exactly the same news on 3 or 4 other sites, that don't have a paywall of some kind.
First you find one nutjob who calls them worse than ISIS (I've not checked---for sake of argument I won't dispute it). You then say "unfortunately isn't cherry picking one example." but move straight on to less and less and less extreme versions.
Makes it look like people comparing them to ISIS is common, without actually saying that. Very well done. Have you considered working as a spin doctor for a political party or as a writer for a newspaper?
Strangely, at least in the cases where the media has printed stuff on Birgingham I haven't seen them say that it's a Muslim only town.
Fox news don't have a print arm so that's not surprising.
In other words, you can't be bothered to look. Even if it's out there, especially when said nutjob has pull in the online media. And then I point out where said media is falling flat on it's face, but you don't seem to have a problem with the media lying through it's teeth. Maybe you can go look up the stuff written by NBC news, where a person named Izzy Galvez called gamergate "domestic terrorists."
But since people are, and are using rhetoric, maybe, perhaps, you should consider you're wrong. That's a difficult thing to consider right? After all, that's not spinning, that's how far the media is willing to go in order to paint a story for you.
I always like it when people trot out the "fox news" type of BS. It usually shows that the person in question doesn't like to consider things that might intrude on their per-conceived notions on something. FYI, we don't have fox news in Canada unless you pay for it on top-tier channels, and since I haven't had a TV in 17 years...you know what they say about assumptions right?
Well, the lame excuse about intrusive ads does not apply here, according to TFS. Either pay a subscription fee and eliminate ads or view ads. I guess most freeloaders don't want to pay for the subscription or view ads.
Sure it does. A lot of people wouldn't mind the ads if they're not going to hijack their machine and would turn off adblocking software. But the content that said sites offer, do not promote a persons desire to pay for it. Especially since large numbers of news services simply use wire content to fill out their pages. That site in question doesn't offer any unique content that people can't find elsewhere.
The business model is broken, because companies don't want to take responsibility for the ads. And users are refusing ads, because they're the most common source of machine hijacking.
Qatar is Amsterdam compared to Texas. You know, they only have two things in Texas, right?
Really? I didn't know they had mandated religious courses in public schools in The Netherlands. They sure do have mandated classes in Qatar for religion though. Texas on the other hand, doesn't.
Look at people acting as if social media is All Important and Significant and Stuff. So cute.
Well let's look at some of the recent stuff that's happened in the last oh..month. We've got IGN turning around and filing a false DMCA claim against a video because it called out one of the people for spreading misinformation. Then we've got HTC trying to bribe the moderators of the/r/vive sub so they can control and censor information. To me, those both scream companies trying to censor things because they don't like it. So...maybe you're right, it's not important. Or maybe it is important.
If that's true, then the guy's a moron. Of course, cherry picking one example and painting all of the media is kind of silly. Fox and Breitbard are also part of the media. One could cherry pick one of those and say "the media" paints Birmingham is a Muslim only town (for example) or something equally silly.
Yes that's sadly true. Feel free to google his name and slap in isis and you'll see. That unfortunately isn't cherry picking one example. Since you can go to wired, gawker, kotaku, hackernews, various newspapers and they all print the same "gamergate is full of terrorists, misogynists, and rapists." With evidence that doesn't even exist. Strangely, at least in the cases where the media has printed stuff on Birgingham I haven't seen them say that it's a Muslim only town. Rather, that the local council and police refused to do anything about Muslim grooming gangs for fear of being labeled racist. Then again, that isn't an isolated incident either is it.
I'm not engaging in hyperbole. Devin Faraci was the "worse than ISIS" statements, and did an article on that, on top of the "he(sic) has more respect for ISIS.". And the media sure did decide, which is why you saw 14+ articles all coming out on the same day declaring gamers "over, dead, and no longer having to be your audience." Not to mention months of "GG is dead, but we're going to insert GG into everything and blame them for everything that's going wrong." Even the CBC's ombudsman agrees that the CBC itself engaged in behavior that labeled gamergate as something it wasn't.
I'll bet you've got proof that GG and doxing someone right? After all, I keep asking people for proof and they don't have any. It's much like the media is now trying to label GG as the ones who made the photoshop of Vereender Jubbal. Of course, that of course wasn't true and it was members of GG that turned around and tried to get the media to correct it. And it was a member of ayyteam who did it, but since anti-gg believes in "no bad tactics" they're okay with smearing GG anyway.
was the initial switch-over without the option to fall back on http ?
Yep, that would have been back in hmm 2007ish I think, maybe a bit earlier. They included direct http downloads because of the numbers of people who's ISPs or universities were blocking all torrent traffic.
If so many people are overqualified, then why all the complaints about not being able to find qualified workers and why all the foreign workers in both Canada and the US.
It couldn't be because of the crappy wages being offered, could it?
In some cases yes, in others it's the company abusing the process to push the workers out so they can pay less in wages. This is happening here in Canada with Welders and Pipefitters who make in the $30-70 range depending on your location.
Blizzard uses it for all their games, KoTOR:Online. In the first couple of years that I was playing WoW, and they switched to BT there were a lot of college and university students who could suddenly no longer download patches because their admins blocked access to anything using the torrent protocol. Myself and a couple of friends used to run a small server to host the patches on for guildies and a few others, because you know, direct downloads are fine and aren't used in piracy at all.
That'd be the one where the media decided to smear gamers as "worse than isis, terrorists, terrorist supporters, harassers, misogynists," and three dozen other things. It hasn't stopped, if gamers at this point can be blamed for something the media does it. Even if facts don't fit the evidence, because it's convenient.
Well that only works as long as they don't get a hold of a AA system, or manage to get their hands on some manpads or stingers/knockoffs from all that oil they're selling.

Maybe, but the only reason I can think of is because people have it set to automatically install drivers. That's easy enough to turn off.
What else do you call a PC/cell/laptop/tablet that has malware installed and becomes a part of a botnet?
