Prison has turned into punishment and about keeping people off the street instead about reforming people. But you can't reform people when you keep cutting back on funding. If you keep cutting back on funding the conditions in prisons will continue to worsen which will only lead to more violence and conflict. And the people leaving will be less ready to integrate back into society once they have served their time.
Then why do you only do it for sex offenders? Plenty of other prisoners are released when they are known to be a danger to society but don't have restrictions placed on them after they have served their time. Shouldn't they have restrictions placed on them? Oh yeah, it's against their rights! But somehow that doesn't apply for a sex offender (for which the definition is very wide).
Where have you been? It's been about the money for a long time now. The various Olympic committees have been using heavy handed techniques to enforce the brand for years now. It was especially bad in Canada when we had the Winter Olympics in Vancouver in 2010. Letting professionals play was all about increasing the ratings as well as adding some events that are more suited for the X Games.
The USOC does that in the US. The Canadian Olympic Committee does the same thing in Canada. They were especially bad when we hosted the Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Every country has their own committee and they have to enforce the brand to protect the sponsors. I don't know if they are all as heavy handed though.
Their primary markets are saturated and they aren't bringing out any must have features on the new iPhones so many people are keeping their existing ones longer. It will get worse if they do go to a three year cycle between major redesigns as it will encourage people to hang onto their phone longer.
I think part of the problem is the drive to make phones thinner all of the time. If manufacturers added battery capacity then they could be adding new functionality or greatly improving the sensitivity of the existing sensors. Heck, just improving the battery life of the phone would cause many people to upgrade.
Every government, including the US, does regulate the sale of companies to foreign firms. The US won't allow the sale if it would compromise national security. So unless Vizio is working on something for the NSA or the military then the sale will probably go through since it's a pretty small company doing pretty generic electronics work.
If the US blocked every sale to a foreign firm then US companies would quickly find themselves being unable to buy companies in other countries.
What, batteries don't store energy over the winter? I guess that's why all of us Canadians have dog sleds in the winter. It's a wonderful scene all of the sleds going down the highways as everyone heads downtown. Tens of thousands of dogs pulling thousands of sleds. And our replacements for buses have hundreds of dogs pulling sleds with 20 people at a time.
Try getting your own domain. You can host it for free at https://freedns.afraid.org/ and then find a free mail provider. I have used https://www.zoho.com/ for the past couple of years and been pleased with them. You could also skip the domain and just get your mail at Zoho (or where you get your free mail from). With Zoho you get a number of mail accounts with their free program so if you create your own domain you can have accounts for your family or friends.
That only works if you are a tourist. Not if you are coming back to the US from visiting somewhere else. They can stop US citizens and take their stuff too.
It's due to their quest to get the phones ever thinner. The headphone jack is the thickest element left. By getting rid of that then the smartphone manufacturers can make the phones even thinner.
Not that there's a huge demand for that as I think most people would prefer to keep the same thinness, or even add a bit of thickness, in order to add a bit more battery and not have to charge the device as often. Or they could add some more sensors to the phone or give it some other capabilities if there was a larger battery. Get back to innovating instead of concentrating on making it thinner.
Probably because when you go to a mall the majority of people find a parking spot closest to the store that they are going to so it's safe to assume that's where you are going. Especially when you go there repeatedly, it's not at a busy time of day, or they (or someone who purchases your driving information) buys other sources of data that can be matched up with you. Isn't big data a wonderful thing!
Do all the logs go to Tesla automatically or does the company only go fetch them after an accident (or when someone writes in with a report like this and implicitly gives their permission to access the information)? If everything gets sent to Tesla there are huge privacy implications. They know what stores you go to and how often, your habits, and many other things that can be determined by your driving habits. They could probably make a fair bit of money selling that information to advertisers.
But just think what resources will now be available to the Feds with the tax revenue coming in because the copyright holders will be getting their $1B a year that was being stolen because of KAT./s
Back when I was a system administrator for a government department looking after the computers for the web sites losing a UPS in the data centre would have been no big deal. Each chassis holding our blade servers held four power supplies. Two power supplies were connected to one power distribution unit (PDU) and the other two power supplies were connected to a different PDU. The PDUs were cabinet models and each PDU was connected to a separate UPS. The whole data centre had a diesel generator for a backup too. So losing a UPS, or a PDU, would have had no impact on my servers since they still would have gotten the electricity through the other path. I also had redundant network and SAN switches. I made sure that every server had at least two instances running so that one could be brought down for service without impacting the users. The only issue that I ever had with those IBM blades was the SCSI hard drives that started to fail after about three years (not bad in a server environment) which were replaced with the SAN. All running Linux of course.
As an aside we got stuck with a rack of the first generation of the HP blades and they were horrible. They ran so hot special cooling had to be installed in the data centre for them and we kept on have RAM failures. I was thankful that I had as little to do with them as possible.
There was a show from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation program Background Briefing about the high prices of electricity in Australia. The companies that own the infrastructure have no incentive to save money as they are allowed to charge customers cost + profit. With this they just keep on building things even if they aren't needed. The show had some examples of this.
It's going to get out of hand to declare the emoji pretty soon by using the ZWJ. We're going to have base emoji + gender + skin tone + hair length eye colour +...
People are going to spend longer defining a single emoji than it would have taken them to write what they wanted to say in the first place.
Of course the opposite direction and trying to include a distinct emoji for every case will be just as crazy.
I installed this on my Synology NAS, my computers, my iPhone, and my iPad. Haven't had any real problems with it at all. No more problems with space. I had dumped DropBox after they took some free space away from me and said that I never had it. The great thing about Sync is that since I mostly use it at home it's faster than other options because it doesn't depend on my Internet connection. But I can still connect to it if I'm out of the house.
It is slow on the iPhone and iPad to start up and make connections. I wish it would see if there was a network connection and not try to connect to other peers if there's no network available. When I have my iPad on the bus it takes a bit for it to appear to time out and find that there's no available peers to connect to. You can still look at documents that are cached but only after it's done searching for peers.
After using Sync for months I just moved my files off of the other services that I had free storage and deleted the apps off my devices.

If he's in it I really hope he gets it back without the video hitting the Internet.
I had heard that there was going to be a Star Trek spin-off where you go around and collect Tribbles.
I put it to you that not much from McDonald's is consumable.

No, the regulations are still strict in Flint. It's just that they aren't being met there and in many other places.

Everything normal.

Yes but since it was 10:30 at night one might figure the person might have seen the headlights.

Or someone didn't like his art and filed a right to be forgotten request on his behalf.
And then it'll take another big loss of data to learn to verify that backups are actually working before needing them.
