I'd be really dubious that a coal fired electrical grid is a way to do so that would improve their standard of living. I don't think it's been such a great boon for the majority of Chinese, based on their chronic air pollution issues.
I figure most of the billion w/o regular electrical supply are in Africa (~200 million in India), so you'd think solar would be preferable to coal but realistically they can't afford either. Plus I bet if asked most would prefer you to work on water/food security.
Maybe if you vote R's into office long enough you can have some kind of migrant slaves to mine your coal, but "good paying mining jobs" are not coming back.
The point of malware is to gain financial advantage (or lulz if you're a teenage dickhead).
Even if you ignore previous jailbreaks from the VM sandbox, there's no end of mischief you can achieve with JS alone which will cause users to hand over credentials that can be used to steal from them, or just willingly infect their machines with second stage infections they download to "fix" the problem with their browser.
While Einstein is correct, as usual, that doesn't mean every explanation should be targeted at a six year old, or that the explanation would complete.
The idea that you should be able to understand everything on Wikipedia in one reading is a the kind of whining I would expect from a millennial who, having been told they are brilliant by their parents every day, is experiencing cognitive dissonance that they don't understand anything beyond the introductory paragraph.
Which model of the atom would you explain to the theoretical six year old? I think I'd stop at Bohr's model, which is more incorrect than Schrodinger's but probably sufficient for their needs.
Not a great solution, but you used to be able to just create a domain account/password with the same name/password as the non-domain machine and all authentication would work fine...
With my security hat on I would say just get the domain licenses...
IANAL, however; They're never "carefully defined" they're judged by the court.
In a civil case you'd have to prove you're actually a complete blithering idiot and really believe goji berries can cure cancer.
In a criminal case, the prosecution would have to prove you knew you were going to hasten the deaths of all the other idiots that binged on your berries instead of chemo.
The civil case is winnable, but fruitless because the company has no assets. The criminal case is probably too difficult to make and doesn't have enough political will behind it.
It had been known for at least 2 years when the virus checker completely missed it, then opened (and hence infected) every COM and EXE file on the computer.
Despite having no payload, the thing was so fragmented afterwards I had to format and reinstall (which is the thing to do anyway, but it made backing up any data bloody difficult)
Virus scanners are like condoms; you suggest everyone use them because you can't stop their behaviour so you hope to mitigate it.
I have had none of the symptoms you describe in 6+ years.
Anyone I've known to have issues w/ SMS has been due to iMessage (sure, if all your mates are on Apple they're going to fail to SEND you SMS, but that's hardly your fault)
It turns out that we *can* prove or disprove certain statements about our universe. The fundamental fact (to prove, or disprove) is whether the universe is computable.
Do you really have to compute the whole universe or just the bit your Sim is looking at? Given you control the contents of their mind, you can't even be sure the observations of the thing you're attempting to simulate are correct, so...
Mmm, I reckon I'd agree with you when you compare $800-1000 phone with say $300 phone for ability. However; $40 phones are trash, unless you only want to use them as a phone, somewhat unreliably.
The X will have slightly better camera, but not $700 worth, and a much better CPU which is where most of the value is. If you're OK with a little bit of lag and occasionally rebooting a phone because "something" isn't behaving, then save the $700.
All that said, if you're trapped in the Apple ecosystem it's bloody difficult to climb out; you have to accept that any apps and other purchases that only work on Apple are a sunk cost. It's rapidly cheaper in the long run, but people are really bad at that kind of maths.
Ah, fair enough. I've seen at least one manager kill a project at birth since it was not possible to do, but that's pretty rare.
Also, I'd forgotten the absolute worst PM trend; project is going too slowly, we need a daily meeting that we'll pretend is 15 minutes, but is actually an hour and probably subtracts 2 from the day with prep and recovery.

That's still a problem for government, not corporations. They've the right to limit whatever speech they care to.
Mencken was also talking about government, might as well be a complete non-sequitur and quote:
Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance.
-H L Mencken.

I dunno about American coal, but apparently Australian coal is too expensive for those markets: http://www.abc.net.au/news/201...

Sure, CCS is great, if you can ever get it to work. Is there a single CCS coal fired plant anywhere?
I tried http://www.globalccsinstitute.... for example, found nothing in production.

I see we have some whiny millennials with mod points, lol

I'd be fascinated to see the details of that configuration... was there a WAN involved?
We are in furious agreement here... though I hate Exchange calendaring.
Thanks for your anecdote.
Exactly. Servers, Linux still has no answer for the reasons people run a Microsoft server.
Huh?
I guess he means File/Print and Exchange.
Windows Server is better at the first two (for Windows clients) and the only option for the third.
Not that you need Exchange, but it's easier than retraining staff or listening to whining about [insert any other email server/client]

So, it's lose/lose unless you're in China; https://www.businessinsider.co...
Lol, wish Ah hud some points fur ye.
NFI what you're asking.
It literally is better than nothing, outside of a truly closed system.
Tell that to my first Windows computer that picked up the relatively benign Lemming virus: http://wiw.org/~meta/vsum/view...

I was more thinking iTunes + AppleTV + Macbook + etc etc etc

The one that comes to mind for me is trying to print, anywhere, other than your Apply printer.
I realise that's down to the vendor drivers, but that's exactly where most of Microsoft's issues are too, with other people's crap code.
There's still a lot of shit that works in IE but not in Edge...

Well, not only that, but this really is an insurance pool and they've decided to treat it as such.
Realistically, if they've got a bigger pipe than any of the botnets out there, it doesn't matter which of their customers is under attack.
