Fix online image fix: set facebook page to private... problem solved
Fix online image fix2: set your other accounts to private, doesn't have a private non-web crawl setting? Don't use it.
Now about counteracting reverse image searches... wear glasses & possibly a mask, have fun. Thankfully employers are as of right now too dumb to use it. Fix #1 done upon account creation would prevent your photos from being looked up as well I believe.
Doesn't sound like the funnest of jobs, but as a beginning maybe they can hire somebody to watch play by play after the game and do some data entry. The algorithms can always be built up later. Statistics like this are cool, they help teams fill gaps with weaknesses that may not be apparent watching the team everyday and help to enrich the sport, but they're not to be confused with talent and smarts.
1. Bigger entities have tried going after google only to fail, google can just exclude the links, or if worse comes to worse blacklist Ireland (not likely they have tax entities there I think)
2. The only point of this article I really care about is that they're lobbying for this, which doesn't mean shit usually no idea how this made the news.
3. By doing this they'd encourage people to copy paste their articles, strip out the sources, possibly change some wording and republish, at least with links they get web traffic for ads.
Might seem that way to most, and the thing is... you have to a DIY builder to get around the curve you're talking about. Bleeding edge parts regardless of era have always exceeded computing requirements for 99.9% of users, just be prepared to spend some $, and that's where anything from Dell, HP, IBM gets decisively smoked.
Maybe not... I remember the first palm pads and such requiring a stylus, I think somewhere along the evolution of touch screens, fingers started working. I also remember owning a tablet much more recently that let me choose between finger input, stylus pen, or a compromise of both, but the only thing I ever found different between those 3 is trying to use a finger when it's set to stylus sensitivity, led to poor accuracy.
UI design evolved as the resources justifiably allocated to it multiplied. Transparency requires CPU power, something a ways more scarce on a PII than an i7. A modern AJAX enabled website can spin a 90s computer for a least a little while CPU-wise before loading. For nostalgia though... I remember the icons being a little bit more pixelated in the older Linux GUIs.
And... anybody looking for a similar thing to do with their windows when turning off aero isn't ghetto enough, deviantart has some "classic classic" themes you can try.
yea I was thinking pensions too, but those come out of state tax I believe. My example doesn't matter too much I don't think, there's definitely a bubble in SS regardless of max payouts... and as somebody mentioned Medicare is a part of social security and we're known for our health industry charging massive amounts of money off of medicare.
It all comes down to resources & money. We haven't run out of any resources on Earth yet, so something like asteroid mining is something we largely have the technology for, but it's not financially viable. Same thing with Mars, if there's financial value to going there / settling there / mining there, technical difficulties will be overcome and a pool of volunteers will form, just like people go out to oil rigs today to make large $ in exchange for personal safety.
I don't think we're looking for hospitable conditions (watch too much sci-fi?), but rather a way to branch out of civilization outside the planet and possibly snag some resources while we're at it.
It's not a question of if, it's a question of when (short of us collapsing as a civilization) and what will be interesting to see is if a similar version of Moore's law forms with space technology.
First, the social security bubble needs to be solved, no more retirees getting 300k/y off the rest of us. The other big spender is the military and that's a little more complicated as historically you want the best military on your side, the dollar is just about worthless without it.
The way this country was set up is if you're about to get mugged, robbed, or killed, you invoke your gun holding right and use it. This has been warped beyond recognition, but... if you've ever called the cops to come help you / do something for you that doesn't involve them harassing you... you're better off keeping your dollars and buying the gun.
On another note, I think the state fixes most of the roads, so cali would benefit from taxing facebook / MS / etc... the most there.
I'm sure the pro's of having the tech giants on shore with minimal taxes outweighs them moving most of their assets away as they're all about profits and stock holders. It would benefit us to see them pay more taxes, but it's a tough battle to win.
It's easy to see the states going down the path you mention as a worst case scenario, but the ISP consolidation is capitalism at work, there was a slashdot article about it a while back...
And Britian has always had a very snoopy government, so there's no surprise there, no idea why Australia cares besides the ISPs over there wanting to make more $ through politics somehow. China though has a very different culture and government, I don't think the west or europe would ever look to China as a model for anything anymore than Russia.
Glad I'm not the only one who thinks TV apps are just crappy to begin with, you touched on two major points though, one is Sony & Samsung will ram features down your throat to get their profits up, whether you use them or not, they don't care, especially lately, I have apps on mine to services I've never heard of, much less want to pay for. The other is not so much a point as an observation and that's my older blu-ray player also by Sony has a stable netflixes app in the 100% stability range, go figure, the Bravia one doesn't crash, but every so often it can't be found and you have to refresh from internet apps... I've googled this and that's the way to fix it, unfortunately it comes with a 1 minute (yep 60 seconds)+ wait lag. I've always gotten a laugh out of it trying to watch netflix on it with somebody around and having to explain that this absolutely badass TV w a 980hz max processor is going to make us wait a minute to even boot up the netflix app.
The simple solution here is don't ever become a web developer:) I've used FF for all my browsing, since v1.x, & probably before you knew what IE stood for...
You're 100% correct about the source code, he never had access, however he did package the modded driver into its own installer and omega is considered a 3rd party driver. Don't underestimate the registry either, all the driver settings / a lot of the config are stored there. Some of these tweaks led to increased stability in the past. I'd have to agree they're out of date, but a lot of the cards it supports aren't getting new drivers / improvements from nvidia anytime soon either. I thought I'd just throw this out there for those looking for something else to try, especially with all the invasiveness of newer nvidia drivers.
When you expand a TV's capabilities outwards far enough what do you get?
A PC? A mini-PC? aka a computer.
Right now they act more like an embedded machine with preset apps & software limitations.
They'd have to have an app market & flash based storage for one, but let's think even more (head hurt? not really),
I can use my TV as a monitor making it a computer and the latest FF & IE > anything on that Sony for web browsing + I get a USB keyboard (I already own) to use, that kind of helps. The same goes for the rest of the apps including netflix, which I have a big red button for on my remote, the PC version is more stable, faster, and overall better.
I don't use my TV as a monitor however, so I appreciate the netflix button and the amazon video app all over wifi, can't say I use a whole lot besides that, but the webcam & bluetooth might have some uses every once in a blue moon.
My point is a TV should remain a TV, I'd rather pay for a better image processor than a crappy browser, but if they were to try and make them smarter, they'd have to follow the cell phone's evolution into a smartphone and add similar features in regards to UI design & customization.
They're based on nvidia drivers, just like linux is based off of unix to a lesser extent, however what I appreciate the most about them is the installer isn't nearly as invasive, pretty sure it installs that extra user with just the drivers from the OEM, regardless of whether you choose to install the console or not. They used to serve a more important purpose and that's providing stable drivers the many times nvidia fell short.
Use Omega drivers, I stopped using Nvidia drivers about the time they started putting an Nvidia windows user on my systems for "gathering performance data".
I see google docs as more of a supplement to MS office and a quick changes type software, other than that it's a PITA to work in, if people don't have strong document based needs, or just don't care, or don't want to pay out for MS Office, it can work, but for b2b communication, office is standard. b2c in most cases also. That carpenter is missing out, he could've used office to create business cards, flyers, and labels, keep track of clients, etc... some people never learn though. There's alternatives to MS office, but it's not google docs.
Historically, the feds have gone after the operates of the bot net to stop it's operation. In the case of anon, the DDOS was tied to a website movement, which was tracked by feds linking the attack to the users, even then some have argued they didn't intentionally install the ddos tool on their computers and wouldn't have knowing what it was for. When somebody starts going through the list of IPs and starts looking for similarities, they can usually tell if it's a botnet or not by the randomness of the IP to user correlation involved, or by what the motive of the DDOS was.
I'd disagree because people tend to escalate conflict, and having worked with random people, I can tell you when "people" are coming in off the street into a store for any reason, a 100% customer satisfaction is a myth, some people can't be satisfied short of giving them 2 of everything free, and even then they'll be back the next day. So the moment I get the feeling that somebody is venting on the internet, I don't ever take it seriously.
You couldn't have picked a worse example than the restaurant industry for online reviews, the only people that write online reviews for those are the pissed off customer type, same deal as most bbb reviews. Good service is tipped for, bad service prompts a user review online typically. So you get all the people who didn't get good service writing reviews, even if it's.01%.

There was the cold war... then again the government could use a revamp of the meaning of the word war.

McAfee the person hasn't been associated with McAfee labs for a long time now.
