Why is it that they need to be told a compelling story? Appreciation is nice, yes, but is it necessary for them to be wow-ed in every future report? Like OP said, they expect functioning systems and get functioning systems, and people get mad when things don't work right.
This is probably the most fair response to the question. The ultimate question being asked is, "Which workstation setup will allow the end users to be productive?" If FOSS is part of your criteria, ensure that there are open source solutions for all your office's needs, from document writing to file sharing to video viewing. Invest in what will make your office work better overall, even if it isn't $0.00.
That bit about the spreadsheets right at the end is so incredibly true with creative work.
You come in contact with a lot of people and for very different reasons - you've gotta organize that data somehow, otherwise you'll spend all your time memorizing people rather than making creative things.
I would have thought that more standardized devices would be more beneficial given the better/more familiar IT support, the familiarity of updates, better planning for scaling and expansion, etc.?
What in your view are the benefits in a working environment of having multiple different devices/platforms?
The software is built off the blockchain model of the Bitcoin protocol. A key pair is recognized in the blockchain as being associated with a specific username, and it's there for all nodes to agree upon.
Scientific experiments, as those conducted in these studies, test for a "null hypothesis." In other words, they come up with a hypothesis (in this case, saying that video games do not diminish prosocial behaviour) and then seek to prove the opposite.
In this way they are considering the possibility that video games actually do diminish that behaviour, and test for it. They were unable to prove that video games diminish prosocial behaviour - they failed to prove their null hypothesis, leaving their primary hypothesis correct.
I've heard a lot of talk of binaural beats since getting into lucid dreaming, both of which I found out about on the Dreamviews website. What I learned from there was similar to what this article states, except it comes from people who get themselves educated on the subject and discuss it, or they're just asking about binaural beats. Either way, this article sounds rather absurd to me. Music has been a gateway to drugs for decades, it's just a matter of how you look at it. Saying that listening to it makes you want to get high introduces nothing new, and is, like mentioned before, just some scare tactic to achieve some goal.
Shame on them.

Because Russia didn't 3-D print Ukraine's Dolphin Squad, I guess.
How much of that bundle is theirs and how much of that bundle is the users'? Can't just go around spending anybody's money.
"catch as catch can.": using any available means or method : hit-or-miss
Sounds like learning is not necessarily a linear process. Makes me feel better about my learning experience!
I only heard of it because of its acquisition last week, and haven't used it.
Integrate this project with Google Glass. Or have they already?
Slashdot's home office is in the Murder Mitten?
"Yahoo! announced via their Tumblr page"
Really? This is how businesses are delivering their security announcements?

Why wasn't this already required...? (Innocent until PROVEN guilty?)

Edward. His name is Edward Snowden. Unless you were making a joke about how little US media coverage there is on him.
