So you wrote all that and didn't state anywhere in it what sources you'd accept?
Then you still can't ask for facts yet.
Cite a source you'll accept or you can't ask for facts. End of discussion.
We both know you'll never cite such a source because you know you're a fraud. And you're not even an especially clever or skillful fraud. Your fraud is obvious.
There's no reason Boeing couldn't be doing this on a fixed price model. In fact, they should be doing it. SpaceX would take the contract on that basis. And frankly they're making some really good progress with delivering high quality products at a fraction of the competition's price.
I haven not attempted further sourced facts because you STILL haven't cited a source you would accept.
For all your babble you still have not cited a single source you would accept.
As to moderation... I maintain an excellent rating 99.9 percent of the time. So. I don't really care.
Let me say this multiple times because you're as stupid as you are dishonest:
Provide a source you will accept and I will provide facts using that source... assuming your source is reasonable.
Provide a source you will accept and I will provide facts using that source... assuming your source is reasonable.
Provide a source you will accept and I will provide facts using that source... assuming your source is reasonable.
Provide a source you will accept and I will provide facts using that source... assuming your source is reasonable.
Provide a source you will accept and I will provide facts using that source... assuming your source is reasonable.
Did you read that even once, shit for brains? Do that and we'll move to the next stage of your humiliation.;-)
Until then, you can't ask for facts. You haven't the right. You lost the right when you rejected facts arbitrarily requiring me to demand that you provide criteria that allows me to know which sources you'll accept and which you will not. Absent that criteria... are you just arbitrarily rejecting facts and that means citing them to you is pointless.
Name a feature you want and it exists. I grant the listings are often poorly organized but what do you expect from FOSS? They're almost always poorly organized.
You get good at searching through that stuff. You learn the terms. And it all comes into focus.
What you want to do is archive, delete, or send to spam on a single keystroke?
That's more a matter of the email client itself than the server. I suppose you're looking for a good webmail client?
Not a fan of them personally. Email clients simply do a better job than the crap that approximates one in a website.
But I'm sure you could find a good webmail client that is FOSS if you wanted. It isn't a big deal.
Still.. I wouldn't bother. The email clients that don't bother going through websites are always faster. Even than gmail. A proper email client donkey stomps gmails webclient and always has.
A feature I think is really important for example is auto sorting of email as well as "triggers" that do certain things automatically when some emails come in.
For example, I get a text message on my phone when some of my automated systems send an email to my address with certain trigger phrases in it. The home client checks the box every few minutes. When it gets that message, it puts the message in a special folder and then triggers a script that also sends a text message to my phone.
The vast majority of mail that arrives at my email accounts is automatically sorted. I can receive hundreds of mails in a day and know what I got that matters in about 5 seconds.
Outsource the whole operation to SpaceX or Boeing and then have them be responsible for hitting the deadline.
It won't cost more then what it currently costs, the US will retain the internal capability to do the work... and we'll be able to put real pressure on the whole institution to actually hit deadlines.
I have a raspberry pi that I use to host a personal website. It is just for me and a couple friends and it associates a free subdomain with my home dynamic IP.
I have access to my home movie and music library anywhere, can remote into my home systems whenever I want from my phone, and can host any file I want on line without having to give it to a third party.
That's the trick. Remove the third party.
Is it more expensive to self host? Not really. I want these things stored locally anyway. So I just link my local drives to the pi. So self hosting cost me about 25 dollars... total and done.
The only thing I use the cloud for is offsite backups and only of a few critical things.
Perhaps but it isn't... I don't lower myself to such things. It isn't fun for me, I'm too proud, and I really don't see the point given that I don't need to do it.
The people I suspect of doing it are the people that get really mad and are sort of stupid. Those sorts clearly care enough to do something and aren't clever enough to be able to weather an argument. So rather than deal with logic they resort to trolling because it is that or just lose. They lose either way of course... but they try.
I don't have that problem. I don't care enough, I get no joy from doing that, I don't need to do it, and I won't dirty myself with such tactics.
First only one system on the network needs to actually check with the internet time servers. Everything else can just check that local system. The most damaging thing is not having the time be wrong but the times be out of sync with each other. I'd much rather have all the systems be 4 hours off in the same direction than have them be every which way with some of them using the right time and some of them not.
Second, there are a lot of ways to check the time and the NIST is not the only way to do it. A lot of companies maintain time servers that I've found to be more error free. I sync to them more often than not simply because it works more often.
Indeed. Airplanes don't work unless you design them to be aerodynamically stable.
Take that that excuse and air travel doesn't work.
Boats only work if they're buoyant. Take out that excuse and they don't work.
I see the problem. It however has solutions. It isn't an "excuse" an excuse is an attempt to shift blame. I am not shifting anything. I am solving it.
A solution is not an excuse.
You don't like my perspective on the matter? That is fine. Don't straw man me or attempt to twist my position. I am as rational as a slide rule. Fallacies do not work on me. At all. Attempting them is like trying to play tricks on a man that can see that would only work on a blind man. I'm not blind. I see what you're doing.
Exactly. Germany has been doing a lot of whining on the Snowden issue with increasing levels of hypocrisy.
Don't get me wrong, I think the snowden situation is bullshit. But the germans were complicit in it so they don't get to climb onto a high horse about it.
I generally agree, however what if they ask for your server passwords?
What after all is the difference?
The trick is to put the information somewhere that they don't know it exists at all. They can't ask for the password if they can't find the files or the server login. You say "what password"? If they can't find the files or the server then they can't ask for the password. And THAT is the trick. Putting the files on a USB stick and then secreting that into your other belongings in such a way that it won't be seen on an X Ray.
Then they can go over the machine all they want. The data isn't on the laptop. You might even secret the USB drive inside the laptop. There are a lot of circuits in there. Who is going to notice an extra flash memory chip?
As to screen size, that isn't a big problem. I have good eyes can test on remote deskop on my phone because my phone has a 1080p screen. All that you need to do is have eyes that can pick details out. And the pinch zoom feature in all such programs is entirely sufficient if I really want to get a better look at something which is rare.
I remote into machines all the time with my phone. It isn't a big deal.
The only input limitations that are irritating is that sometimes it is faster and more accurate to have a mouse and typing with a keyboard is always faster. However, that doesn't mean the programs on the phone have to be simplistic. It merely means it is annoying to interface with it sometimes. I have a tiny bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I prefer to keep them with me instead of a laptop.
If I need to write some long emails for example, then I want my keyboard out because typing it all out using the onscreen keyboard is a pain in the ass. I only use the bluetooth mouse sometimes when I'm remoting into a machine and I need a bit more dexterity.
Anyway, those work perfectly and instantly on android.
You connect a mouse through bluetooth or an OTG cable and you instantly have a mouse. Same thing with a keyboard. Both run on rechargable AAA batteries. I keep a little pouch of them in my backpack and when I've used them up, I put the spent ones in a recharger. It is more convenient then using the ones that recharge in the devices.
Anyway, I've run some pretty sophisticated programs on my phone. I've run some corporate databases. I've run some pretty impressive emulators.
One thing that always annoyed me about my phone was how shitty the games are for it. I'm a gamer. I know what a shitty game is and all the android AND iOS games are bullshit. So I use emulators.
I play PS1 games, old PC games, SNES, NeoGeo, N64 games. Basically anything you can emulate on a PC is something I play on my phone. Obviously you need a gamepad to do that properly. I just use a cheapo USB gamepad and an OTG cable. Instant gamestation.
These little computers are quite capable. See them for what they can do not for what lay people use them for. They don't know any better.
First, the whole thing is a system where the industry regulates itself. So a game developer or publisher is going to be running this thing.
Second, why is GTA such a big problem here? Are GTA games getting a tame review on the box? Lets look that up... *Actually looks it up* They're rated "M" for mature. So what the fuck is the problem here?
Third, no one cares about these ratings. My parents didn't when I was growing up and anyone that works at a gamestop will tell you that most parents that buy games for their kids don't either. They'll go into the store to buy murderspree 14 and the box will say M and the store clerk will say "this is not for kids" and the parent will say "shut up and take my money".
Forth, this just looks like another whiny article bitching about GTA from people that either don't know anything about gaming or people that are writing FOR people that know nothing about gaming.
This is a stupid article and the author should be embarrassed with themselves.
I wasn't arguing against white lists. I'm a big fan of them actually. But I don't like the implementation of them through a walled garden application distribution system.
I'd prefer something that worked more like anti virus in that on execution, the program would be checked against a database of approved code, and if it was in the approved code list it would be allowed to run.
I don't think either apple or google should be in the business of saying what people should and shouldn't be doing with their devices.
Let anyone release software for the platforms and distribute it on their own websites or where ever. All they have to do is submit their software to apple or google to be checked for security compliance.
Have different grades of checking. Have a free automated check that most applications will get. And then have a more exhaustive human eye ball check that costs some money to get the company to actually do.
So users can decide how dangerously they want to live.
There's no need for the files to be hosted on google or apple's servers.
That's your own opinion. I prefer more violence and less sex personally.
I don't like sex in my entertainment really at all. But I do like action movies.
Think of Game of Thrones for an example of why violence is often more relevant to the plot than is sex. Game of thrones has a reason for violence. There are power struggles. People die. There are battles, there are assassinations, there are duals, etc.
But what is the point of vagina, boob, dick scenes? They don't accomplish anything for the plot. It is just HBO's way of saying "hey we can show naughty bits on our network!"
And it doesn't really accomplish anything besides that.
Which is in many cases the issue with sex in media in general. It isn't relevant to the plot unless the plot is about sex for some reason.
violence is a much more interesting plot device. violence is much more useful as a dramatic element.
So for my money... less sex and more violence. Sex just isn't interesting IN A STORY. Sex is a fun thing to participate in but its less fun to hear about.
Where as violence is not so fun to be involved in but it is very entertaining to hear about it.
I haven't lied to you. You're just too crazy and bigoted to deal with reality.
As to setting up other accounts... I've not done that. I've suspected you of that frankly but I wouldn't bother to do such a thing. Not only do I not need to do it but it wouldn't amuse me or flatter my ego to do it.
I'm too proud to engage in such degenerate tactics. I'm also too good at what I do to need to do it.
I note in your comment that you don't state what I lied about or really make any effort to defend yourself. Just a lot of babbling about how unfair it is for people to call you out on your bullshit.
Well here's the bottom line, shit for brains... if you make a statement, people are free to comment on it. And if you say something fucking stupid, then people are going to tattoo "idiot" on your stupid face.
The very nature of a smart phone or a tablet rejects this notion.
Do they come preinstalled with 4 basic functions and that is all they do?
or are they roughly as capable as similliarly powerful desktop computer?
There's no reason to limit them.
If the bumpkins only want to use one of the 4 preinstalled basic features that is fine. It is a little like only playing Microsoft Solitaire but whatever.
Slashdot Mirror
If you offered them a chance to take boeing's contract they'd make it work. The money is too good.
So you wrote all that and didn't state anywhere in it what sources you'd accept?
Then you still can't ask for facts yet.
Cite a source you'll accept or you can't ask for facts. End of discussion.
We both know you'll never cite such a source because you know you're a fraud. And you're not even an especially clever or skillful fraud. Your fraud is obvious.
Fuck off.
Personal web traffic is typically so low that no one will notice.
If you have high enough traffic that you need that much bandwidth then I don't see how you're going to get free cloud service that covers that volume.
Yes, if you're doing youtube videos or something then fine... but really what else is going to matter?
I self host everything that is private. Anything that isn't self hosted doesn't matter to me. They can sniff those panties all day.
There's no reason Boeing couldn't be doing this on a fixed price model. In fact, they should be doing it. SpaceX would take the contract on that basis. And frankly they're making some really good progress with delivering high quality products at a fraction of the competition's price.
Nah, more like "Google announces policy that only effects lazy and or ignorant people"
Don't care.

It won't cost more then what it currently costs, the US will retain the internal capability to do the work... and we'll be able to put real pressure on the whole institution to actually hit deadlines.
They want to get paid? Deliver on the contract.
I have a raspberry pi that I use to host a personal website. It is just for me and a couple friends and it associates a free subdomain with my home dynamic IP.

Or the ones below that?
Because if google is screwing with the links below the 'advertised" pit then that is a bit fucked up.
I wouldn't throw hand cuffs on them for that. Its totally legal. But it is misrepresentation because the implication is that they're not doing that.
I'm happy with them doing it so long as they're open about it.
Exactly. Germany has been doing a lot of whining on the Snowden issue with increasing levels of hypocrisy.

Absent that, you'll just say anything I cite is wrong no matter who verifies it.
