I find Windows 10 needs to restart a hell of a lot. And it forces the restarts too. It will wake the machine up in the middle of the night just to restart without asking.
While it's generally pretty good the lack of control over updates is immensely frustrating.
Just like in real life they can ban people for bad behaviour. If a politician has a public meeting at a convention centre and someone tries to use their air horn every time they open their mouth, they can be ejected and it's not a 1st amendment issue.
It's difficult to decide where the line is. For example protesters might want to display photos of aborted foetuses, which might make a lot of other people not want to or even be unable to participate. The line is somewhat fuzzy.
1st amendment protections don't stop people ejecting you because of disruptive behaviour. Trying bringing your own megaphone to the next town hall meeting.
They have the free offering because it often leads to paying customers. If people use the free version and get used to it they may then suggest that their company adopts it. That's what happened at my current and last employer.
Problem is that both the Ds and Rs hate Trump almost equally. If anything he will just encourage them both to ensure nothing like this happens again, e.g. even less choice of candidates next time around.
The argument accepted by the court is that this page was akin to a public form, and the 1st applies to such forums in order to foster political debate and engagement. Hopefully someone can post the relevant case law that decided this.
The argument accepted by the court is that this particular page is akin to a public forum debate, a kind of town-hall meeting, which is protected in the US.
The principal doesn't apply to almost anyone else or any other situation.
It only applies to politicians on their official pages, not to individuals or even a politician's personal account if they maintain a separate one.
The ruling was based on the politician's public page being considered a kind of public forum. It seems that the courts are finally starting to define which parts of the internet are a public forum, and it's worth noting that the ruling doesn't prevent social media platforms enforcing their terms of service.
Thing is cylindrical cells will not be any better, as I already explained. They change geometry internally too, which can cause a short if they are not properly manufactured. It's nothing at all unique to pouch cells. It's just that because pouch cells can expand and usually vent along the seams they mostly don't become high pressure bombs in the event of such a failure.
But none of that is relevant to automotive packs because the packs themselves are sealed, meaning that ultimately both types of cell are enclosed in a metal box with its own vent.
As for less durable, sure if you are handling them. But these are automotive cells inside a sealed pack.
I take your point, but for example I don't think the "nightmare letter" is actually all that bad. Most of the questions should be things that the company can answer easily anyway, and the answer will be the same for every request or at worst require a quick ctrl+F on a list of records involved in a data breech.
So again I see it as a benefit. If companies were not able to answer those things already they should be now.
In response, GitLab CEO Sid Sijbrandij said: "GitHub today announced the launch of free private repositories with up to three collaborators. GitLab has offered unlimited collaborators on private repositories since the beginning. We believe Microsoft is focusing more on generating revenue with Azure and less on charging for DevOps software. At GitLab, we believe in a multi-cloud future where organizations use multiple public cloud platforms."
Translation:
"Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuk we just lost the only reason people were using us!"
Their competitors offer free private repos, and it's one of the major reasons people use GitLab and BitBucket. Those platforms are not as nice as GitHub, but private repos are free.
So they get increased market share from this.
Obviously if you idea is super secret you don't want to use this.
Wait, you are talking about the normal changes in size that are not a fault condition and which are designed to happen, either in a pouch or inside a metal tube? What exactly is the problem again?
Samsung's failures were both due to internal shorts due to manufacturing defects, causing abnormal swelling. If they had somehow released a brickphone that used cylindrical cells that had similar shorts they would have either vented or exploded. In that case having the pouch expand but not, in most cases, fail catastrophically, was actually better.
None of which explains why you think pouch cells are worse for automotive use. It's not like they are using actual phone batteries.
It's easy to disable personalization, just open a private browsing window in the EU. The EU bit is important because then Google needs all your opt-in permissions again to do any personalization.
So a browser say wouldn't need to know the screen size?
A browser needs to know it to render properly. A website serving it certainly doesn't. And I have no idea why it would.
It's used for adaptive layouts, so that the same page can render well on desktop, tablet and phone.
Unfortunately it's hard to avoid that information then getting back to the server. For example different images might be selected depending on the screen resolution (no point loading 4k photos on a 720p screen), different CCS might be loaded to alter the layout to move side menus on a narrow phone screen etc.
Well, there is one way, which is to go back to really basic HTML pages, but in these days of webapps there is little chance of that happening.

Where have you been for the past few years? This has been happening for ages.
Well, yes, if they just arbitrarily banned you for no reason then they might be in trouble.
It's not a question of who, it's a question of the nature of the thing being blocked from.
Dumb and a an SJW mastermind member of the ruling class? Okay.

If you already bought it then return it. It says it's got Android but Android apps don't work on it. It's broken, defective by design.
Clinton might actually being doing something useful about migration too, i.e. the long term fixes that are the only way to sort it out.

I never understood the bionic man. His "super power" appeared to be doing normal stuff in slow motion.
Trump is both the crook and the fool. His scams are well documented, verified in court.

It's so easy though! How can we be expected to resist?
Someone said he had small hands and we got a bizarre boast about the size of his penis at a public rally out of it.
If that was likely they would have already banned all dissenters from their public appearances by declaring them terrorists or a security threat.
More likely whiners will keep inventing reasons why we are on the verge of becoming a communist police Nazi state.
