Well when I order them they get delivered to my home or office. I haven't yet seen a way to reach into my monitor and pull the item from "on-line". Just curious how someone could steal my stuff on-line before it gets to me. DUH!
It's a shame BlackBerry dragged their feet on porting their BlackBerry Messenger to other platforms. They were the gold standard for simple secure messaging in their prime. BBM today is an excellent messaging system that nobody uses because they don't know how good it is. I had high hopes for Jabber er...XMPP but as others have pointed out companies couldn't figure out how to monetize it so they ultimately opted for a walled garden solution.
I have always used a ThinkPad that is off lease and verified. Newegg has a host of models listed between $200-$300. And the ThinkWiki will help you with the particulars if you aren't familiar with the model you get.
That is a VERY good question. I learned long ago that those questions seldom get answered here. They recreated each ID manually. Which generated a new SID meaning when they logged back in they couldn't access their old profile data. Yeah, like I said...fiasco.
An AD administrator in charge of purging old user accounts was using a script to cull AD. He put an * someplace he shouldn't and deleted all the users in a sub-domain. That was a fun week. And I was still cleaning up after that fiasco months later.
There have been no clear successors despite tens if not hundreds of attempts by some of the biggest players. Google and Microsoft have been pushing their offerings hard and they're not bad offerings. But the traders and brokers are stubborn and steadfast. They HATE change (but love volatility). It will literally take something like shutting down their go to tool for them to choose a new one. XMPP (AKA jabberd) was the clear choice early on but it still hasn't been adopted widely and suffers from the Not Invented Here syndrome.
While mainstream consumers have long since moved on from AIM commodities traders still rely on it as their primary IM client between brokers. And since trading falls under the purview of the Sarbanes Oxley (SOX) legislation must be recorded. Although AIM has a conversation history feature it cannot be centrally administrated. This has led to a third party IM recording industry. If this change cuts off these third parties access to the server then traders will not be allowed to use AIM and there will be a scramble to find an alternative. Since Intercontinental Exchange's ICE chat already communicates with AIM servers many firms have moved to it. But this might also affect ICE chat's ability to connect to AIM servers.
You didn't read the article did you? iMessage is just as vulnerable as BBM when using Apple's server. But with BBM you can add your own BES and BB doesn't have access to the keys.
I guess you didn't know all the other message services were already under surveillance. The only reason you heard about BB giving in was because they fought for years against it. So you want to punish the only company that actually cared enough to try and protect your rights. Besides BBM is part of BlackBerry. This phone is built by TCL for the newly created BlacBerry Mobile company which is not part of BlackBerry.
You probably have you just didn't realize you had. As of 2013 they were number three globally for TV manufacturing. They make LCD panels for Samsung. In the US you would know their joint venture TV's with Roku.
Google has done a wonderful job of obfuscation to the fact that Android and Chrome are Linux distributions not OSes. They both use the Linux kernel and Google's in house Desktop Environment. Does Fuchsia replace the Linux kernel or is it simply a new distribution with yet another Desktop Environment?
I think the problem you may be having is trying to apply US law to a UK arrest. In the US the plugins probably aren't considered illegal in and of themselves but if you actually use them to access content you don't have the rights to then THAT is illegal. AFAICT in the UK buying/selling the very plugin is illegal. So if the seller of the "KODI" box lives in the UK they are breaking UK law. Not for KODI itself but the offending plugin. In the US not so much despite what the RIAA/MPAA say.
Software licensing. They may not have invented licensing but they took it to a whole other level. For a while they were actually getting away with forcing enterprises to pay a seat license for every desktop in the office. That Sun Sparc-Windows license. That Mac-Windows license. That Silicon Graphics Iris-Windows license.
The worst customer service from the worst company on the planet now with extra buffering. Expect it to not work so great if you happen to use AT&T for your internet.
I was working with a customer on an issue with their new Sceptre 14" CRT monitor some years back. The thing just would not sync. It looked like the scrambled signal you would see when you were trying to watch HBO and you didn't have a subscription (or one of those descramblers you got out of the back of a truck somewhere). After hours without success we called Sceptre support. After describing the problem they advised us we needed to point the monitor due North to align with the Earth's magnetic poles. Once we got off the floor from laughing I went about determining due North and swivel the monitor thus. The picture cleared.
The Washington Post calling out anybody on alternate facts is dubious at best. Downright scandalous at worst. And MSNBC plainly state they are an opinion station not a news agency. I want to know where anybody is getting "official" numbers for any of the inaugurations since they stopped taking headcounts years ago. All counts you see put forth as fact are actually guesstimations based on a photo of the event. The numbers can be close but never verified. The inauguration is harder to count because no aerial photography is allowed (No fly zone). Add to that rioters blocking the entrance to the Mall preventing attendees from actually entering and numbers become even more irrelevant. I didn't want to believe the media had gone completely partisan but the more they publish hearsay and innuendo the more it looks like they have.
Which is why Netflix is going all out on original content. I currently watch more of Netflix's original content then I do their licensed shows so it seems to be working for them.
Earlier this year Harvard Medical School posted this video showing a bacteria mutating over the course of 11 days until it is resistant to the anti-bacterial they used. 11 days!

So how exactly does this stealing of packages on-line work?
You must not watch very many recent movies or television shows. They movies/shows have become the commercials: product placement.
I'm sure that would NEVER happen.

They did that movie over 35 years ago

How was this not the first post? And just so we don't ruin a perfectly good law...NAZIS
And when exactly has MS ever innovated?

these days about the only Java applets on the web are malware
You mean like Intercontinental Exchange's WebICE? A multi-billion dollar commodities trading platform.
So now you play a basketball game and the next thing you know your the protagonist in GTA - Hot Coffee.

I hear it runs Cygwin so there's that.
