1. This is not net neutrality. Net neutrality is letting the corporations decide what the net is and isn't, when there is an old clear definition. Net neutrality is not discriminating against data by type or origin, and certainly disallows deep packet inspection type analysis. This is to keep the peer to peer model alive, and disallow port blocking, throttling, etc, based on content or destitnation.
It means what the corporations have to sell to the consumers is infact "internet". We need do need standards and regulate this. It worked for a long time as the de-facto standard, but it needs regulation
How MUCH internet they want to sell you at what price is not covered in net neutrality.
Its not a mandate how much or little internet can be sold at what price.
2. this really isn't going to help the average citizen. This is revenge for ISPs blocking SOPA/PIPA.
The government gets to decide what companies get to sell what for what is terrible and will only lead to favortism and corruption. In my view the internet belongs to no one, companies can only sell you access.
The only two standard measures I accept for internet pipes are: 1. width of the pipe. how many bytes/second 2. total amount of internet in bytes transferred total in a set period of time.
Except under court order the ISP should never have a reason to monitor any data besides this, nor regulate anything beyond this. The contract needs to be plain. The customer needs to be guaranteed they get the exact minimum or more of transfer or bandwith, at all times.
"Even if this kid planned to blow up something big, the entire chain of events that led to police finding whatever they found make it all the fruit of the poisonous tree."
But in the United States, if your accused of terrorism, school shootings, communism, nazism, or making a career out of disliking authority, such silly little things like precendence, law, good taste, common sense, etc.....
simply do not apply to your defence. In fact everyone who shows you one ounce of remorse or does the slightest bit to humanize you, just might be put on a "list" or some sort.
"But it DID work in Minority Report. They had a crime free society, and only ONE GUY (played by Tom Cruise) was accused unjustly. Our false conviction rate is WAY higher than that today"
no way to dispute false convictions. Its a closed system
"I think this is just grandstanding by politicians that want to be seen "doing something", and will fade away once the media moves on to the next "crisis"." Its the same fear and hysteria we had after columbine with the same disaster results.
You will more or less get people so scared of the rare event of school shootings, they will be seeing "mentally ill"/deranged gunmen in everyone. Teenagers will have less rights. Anyone questioning the proccess will be labeled as "deranged/mentally ill", and be scooped up.
Red Flags are more paranoid and disinfomration to get you more scared of your peers than authority figures.
A common theme among these shooters is they have all been systematicly disenfranchised and the solution always seems to be systematicly disenfranchising MORE people, than fixing a broken system which leads to broken people, which leads to a rare handful of shootings.
How many lives are ruined because people accused of being killers, or murders, with no real evidence are ostracized, arrested, get the typical law enforcement "spy on them, and then use their weaknesses to push them until they fuck up", to run ruin life tactics on otherwise innocent people.
All what, so some people can have a scapegoat to push off the cliff so they FEEL safer. Guess what, its not making you safer. Its making you less safe. The cameras, the mental health zoos, the laws are not there to protect you, they are there to protect the system, and all of this is disinformation to make you so scared of your neighbors, you run into the arms of the police state.
By "deranged gunman", they really mean "government, business, and social leader" critics.
"Even being critical of your government or questioning authority qualifies for a mental illness diagnosis."
which is were they are going with this, they want to arrest critics, and even potential critics, by labeling them mentally ill, and vaugely "dangerous".
Again, lets review,
Forcible incarceration, no jury, no trial, no lawyer, no appeals, you lack the basic rights even prisoners have, and access to REAL medical care while incarcerated.
for the same reason that most of these "police state" measures only get brought up immediately after a tradgedy when emotions run high. They need to enact legislation before people start bringing in inconvienant facts and statistics.
the new post columbine hysteria has started. They are going to ruin far more kids lives than kids who died in the last shooting, or shootings in general.
We need to put our foot down, and stop this cycle of scape-goat finding based on stereotypes being passed off as valid research and response NOW.
because you as an invidual aren't used to punching.
you need to train for it. Like a martial artist(they really do these things).
1. do pushups on your knuckles, it builds callouses on them, and strengthens your wrists
2. Start punching/scraping your knuckles against brick walls, as hard as you can stand it. keep doing this until you build callouses on your knuckles and strengthen your wrists.
martial artists have been doing this for centuries.
before the political grandstanding and emotional appealing has begun.
Politicians are sick fuckers.
This is nothing short of censorship, politically and emotionally motivated censorship.
Its not cool, and it wasn't cool after columbine, 9/11. the sinking of the USS Maine, the Lusitania, the aurora shooting, the arizona shooting, etc....
"According to the FBI, the hacker used open-source, public information to try to guess a celebrity's email password, and then would breach the account."
Further proof celebs are fucking dumb. This guy wasn't a "real hacker".
I don't know what is more disgusting, celebrities themselves, or psycho brand of psychonphants they attract.
the "file manager", is probably on the biggest key components.
Find your documents quickly, and preview them painlessly. How many people work straight from the apps instead of the file manager?
Oh, and the tech guys need a command line for doing tech guys things. Also need a schedular and a scripting lang to automate tasks to make our lives easier.
" So put them on the metro page. Functions in a similar way: press the windows key and you'll see all your pinned apps for quick and easy access as well as be able to just type the name of any given app you may want."
thats exactly how gnome 3 works in linux. That came out 2 years ago. mabey microsoft should have asked linux users what they thought about gnome-shell(3) before jumping in.
It was so bad, that while most major desktop distros shipped gnome 2 as the default, almost all of them jumped ship, and even produced two forks, MATE and cinamon, to retain application compatibility while not having to deal with the UI design.
"Checksums/CRCs to guard against corruption. This is in ReFS, not NTFS. Linux has no production-level filesystem that can do this." I'm pretty sure ext4 does this.I know for a fact btrfs does this.
In addition if you don't like Linux's ext4, which is a great FS, enterprise grade filesystems Are enterprises using ReFS now? Its new. How widespread is that? how does that really stack against ext4 for general usage. Or even JFS/XFS for database performance. Is ReFS tested? After ext4, btrfs is right around the corner. This is the filesystem of your dreams. MS has no answer.
"Logging, policies, and so on which are needed for anything bigger than the guy in his basement: Linux doesn't offer this, Windows does via GPOs. This is important come audit time, and the auditors are there."
pretty sure linux has that too.
"Please name me a feature that Linux has that Windows doesn't that is useful on the enterprise level." 1. runs on archecture other than x86, namely IBM's z-series. you don't use mainframes in the enterprise world, no sir.
2. scales well for multiple CPUs (as in hundreds-thousands), making it the de-facto OS for super computers.
3. stable, doesn't break. developers won't make accusations at you for reporting bugs.
4. Rock Solid drivers. drivers for linux are generally rock solid, with few problems. The exception being 3 party drivers written by reverse engineering. If your running enterprise and you have factory drives, this is not an issue.
5. performance in general. https://www.pcworld.com/article/230527/ubuntu_linux_day_16_ext4_vs_ntfs.html " ReFS does not support data de-duplication, copy-on-write snapshots (a ZFS and Btrfs feature"

mental health issues will be used as an excuse to round up dissenters.
it will be used to ruin the reputations, and with drugs, the mental capacity, so they don't get a chance to tell their stories.
I would insist on an jury of PEERS chosen from the population.
I would choose the burden of proof is "beyond reasonable doubt", there was an intent to harm.
We need to stand up to this rhetoric, before we further strengthen laws that authorize extra-judicial detention.
There also needs to be a right to apeal.

they needed to be treated as human beings for being such.
His mom was fucking a lunatic.
We need to stop being such a police state, and we'll stop seeing men do desperate things to escape it.
AC makes some sense for once.
Mental Health industry is one giant fucking scam, to enforce the current social order.
for the same reason that most of these "police state" measures only get brought up immediately after a tradgedy when emotions run high. They need to enact legislation before people start bringing in inconvienant facts and statistics.
this guy went on a rampage because he was going to be involntary comitted
what stops this sort of crime is when we start treating people better. Mental Health serivces create these sorts of disasters
but that never seems to be an option.
Where does this sound familiar from?

so, it will be like, what, another 3 months before its patched.
this is the world of linux where security flaws are patched in a timely manner.
unlike MS, who hides them, for years
"Criticism of anonymity is perfectly valid"
so sign up for an account, coward.

I don't know what is more disgusting, celebrities themselves, or psycho brand of psychonphants they attract.
"The guy was a diagnosed aspie"
was as in paste tense, aspergers is no longer a valid medical condition, and has been removed from the DSM-IV
my thoughts on aspergers, is that its nothing more than
1. an insult for someone you don't like who acts derpish. Like calling someone a retard
2. excuse for why you are a looser.
and forget digital cameras, USB Sticks/card readers, external HD's.
3 is the magic number, at least for laptops, that permits most reasonable combinations of commonly used devices for most common scenarios.
6 is also nice.
we have equivs like napalm, and white phosporous.
