The point is that it makes it a lot harder for malware to target masses. The malware creator needs to fake the right certificate and hope the users make the mistake of running their malware AND it most not be known to AV. That's increased the difficulty significantly.
I do agree that it's a bit of an inconvenience for people who live in their parent's basement and run pirated copies of Windows while claiming to live and die by Linux
I think anybody with enough of a system background knows you can fool a certificate system locally but how does the external malware know what certificates your organization allow? As for apps from the app store, you cannot fool it into providing a different certificate than it's authentic one.
Considering most apps will eventually be app store downloads/purchases, I suspect their strategy is pretty sound.
The idea is that there are different levels of control: "All good, Warning, Deny".
Application control already exists through group policies. What this does is make it easier for the administrators to manage but it also brings another level of flexibly which is virtualization. Windows 10 comes with built-in virtualization which will allow isolation of the instance being run. This will further protect the system. I believe some antivirus are already doing this but obviously MS is trying to make the OS provide this functionality built-in. After all, MS best understands their own OS and the API that runs on it.
OSX is great and all but it hasn't catered to large corporations and enterprises. It's the one segment Apple either doesn't care about or doesn't know how to penetrate. Maybe they understand how generic doesn't work in complex business environment.
Don't take me wrong, the concept is good but what Windows 10 is doing here caters to the corporate/enterprise environment better.
I love speed. I have a 400HP muscle car I bring to the strip when I can just to enjoy the thrill of fast acceleration and high speed. As stated in another post of mine, the speed limits are in place so that the majority of drivers can drive safely. After all, many of us don't know our own limits. This is especially true of drivers under the age of 25 which is also why insurance for drivers under that age is outrageously expensive.
If your a speed junky then go to race track or racing events available all around the country in small and big cities. Leave the public roads for people who are just trying to make it to destination.
BTW, I'm not suggesting that moderate speeding is bad since most of us do it, it's the excessive speeding that's an issue and it's the best way to get a cops attention.
Choose your words carefully is what one of my French teachers once told me (yes, I'm French). The individual who wrote: "he hoped they would go to die and go to hell because of all the Muslims they killed" wasn't very smart in the picking of his words for his statement. To wish death on someone is a pretty strong hate message. To wish death on someone is a form death threat you know you can't carry out yourself but wish for it to be carried.
At the end of the day if Twitter censors too much (only time will tell) new services that provide more reasonable censorship will emerge but my bet is that most users don't care for this type of speech and they will stick to a service that censors it.
Look, I did say that I live in Canada and I'm friends with Chinese, Jamaicans, east Indians, Italians and many others. None of them get harassed here for being of a different color or ethnicity (That's Canada for you).
That being said before I moved out of a rough neighborhood (over 10 years ago) as a Caucasian I had a fair share of encounters with the police. They always kept me longer than they needed to and asked questions that seem odd on top of being condescending. Today I realize it had more to do with the neighborhood I lived in rather than how they profiled me.
So I feel for you if you are being profiled so my best advice is to avoid meeting them by being as law abiding as you can. Time will eventually remove this non-sense from our society, until then we have keep working at making it better.
So depictions of Mohammad and bad-mouthing Jesus are indeed defined as hate speech then.
They did it knowing how much anger it would cause. Regardless they didn't deserve to die and neither does anybody else for publishing hate messages. This is why these policy changes are excellent. If people aren't happy with their speech being censored they will quit using Twitter. Otherwise they'll continue using it and the haters can go hate somewhere else.
You see, it is often the case here that roads are built for speeds much higher than the actual posted limit
The problem with that statement is that your assuming the following: 1. That all drivers will adjust their speed to the weather 2. That all drivers will keep their car in the condition required to go the speed they want to 3. That all roads are worthy of limitless speeding 4. That all drivers have the same confidence as you and me
I used to think that way but then I realized I wasn't the only driver on the road and if drive 100km/h on city streets I'll eventually kill someone. Would I like to be able to speed more? Sure but I've settle with speeding reasonably (15km over except on highways 20km over). I've had 2 speeding tickets in the last 8 years and by being friendly with the officer both tickets were given at lower speeds than caught at
By posting a lower limit, the cops and the cities they work for have a nice juicy revenue stream whenever they please to use it
Where I come from cops don't dictate speed limits. Instead the ministry of transportation does this based on a set list of criteria that were previously defined.
As for the revenues, how do cops in Europe make their money with the autobond (unlimited speeds, except when posted otherwise)?
Anywhere else a $200 speeding ticket barely pays for itself if you consider all the time and resources that go into it.
Fact is, if you speed unreasonably you draw attention you don't have to have.
There are also US studies released in the last 10 years (you can probably Google it) showing a direct correlation between speeding and increase accidents death toll. So we know that faster speed = more death in case of accidents (that's common sense to me). What we don't know is what % difference of accidents between those that speed and those who don't. Unfortunately it's not a stat we can obtain yet.
Networking in the 80-90s is not comparable with networking today. The H/W has been improved significantly but more so the software that drives it and surrounds it. Your WIFI network has interruptions but they aren't apparent to you because the layers of software provide a padding to deal with the lost of connectivity (talking a few milliseconds up to less than 10 seconds).
I can already see great applications for this technology as long as it's combined with WIFI.
If you consider the fact that WIFI in many cases has a better chance at making it to it's target by bouncing around I'd say there's not much difference.
Considering this from the following wiki: "Thus any obstruction between the transmitting antenna (transmitter) and the receiving antenna (receiver) will block the signal, just like the light that the eye may sense" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L...
I'd say 99% of people I've met in my life can tell what hate speech is when they read it. They can tell by using the moral compass they've developed over years of being part of a society. Maybe your the 1% I haven't met.
They made a change to their "violent threats policy" but they are also dealing with abuse in general as stated in the article: "This is to deal with all abusive tweets."
Many twitter users have been threatened by "non terrorist" individuals just because they don't like what they do or have done. Sure, social media can be used by terrorists but they aren't the bulk of the concerns. The KKK aren't a terrorist group (although that's debatable in Canada based on new legislature that was released last year) yet they promote violence.
Then stop speeding excessively. Why pull all this attention onto yourself?
It's shit like this that makes me laugh at those who complain about the authorities. I live in Canada so maybe it's different here but I still hear people with the right ethnicity (white) complain about cops and then they say something like "well, I speed 30 over all the time".
I'm pretty sure cops really don't give a damn about you or anybody else if they appear clean. They'll get on your case the minute you act like a dick or show signs of criminal activity. There's a saying I like: "There's not smoke without fire". Cop sees smoke so they look for the fire.
if we continue to allow voices to be silenced because they are afraid to speak up
If you can't make a point without using hate speech then remain quiet. Calling someone names has rarely resolved anything and if anything usually derails off the main topic. If you want to push the Nazi agenda nobody is preventing you from doing so on any media, you just have to do it without using hate speech.
If you think freedom of speech should be used to protect the rights for morons to write things like: "GO KILL YOURSELF FAGGOT" or "UR AN FN TARD" then I obviously won't get my point through to you.
within the available vocabulary without Allowing hate to be As far as I concerned the fact that one is allowed to express his HATE for another race, way of life is not constructive in any way to society and it Nobody said opinions could not be spoken as long as they remain don't become hate . This is looking more like the Canadian way of doing things. For some reason in the United States "hate" is an acceptable
You do understand that most users don't even have the guts to upgrade the firmware on a extremely simple device let alone replace the firmware on an existing router.
There's a reason Apple was the king of smart phones early on. They provided a turn key solution that required little to no knowledge of IT to use.
1 inch of water per SQFT is for those who want that golf green lawn. Until about 6 years ago I never watered my lawn and it remained reasonably beautiful with just normal precipitation. Now I only water my lawn when it's dry for extended periods. I water for only 15 minutes per section (whatever amount of water that equals to I'm not sure but I managed to do the whole lawn which is about 30x30 total which is about 1/3 inch per sqft).
So the point is, I get whatever I get out of the 50 gallons. It's water that isn't coming out of the city's water supply. Those that are more serious (such as some I know) will get a 1000 gallon tank installed at time of construction. Each 50 gallon saves me $10 (based on the lowest rate in the consumption chart) and based on my bills I figure I save between $25 and $40 a month.
The concept of sun light being the trigger for sleep/wakeup has been around for centuries but it wasn't an important subject of conversation until recently (I say this because sleep disorders have become a major issue in our society). What this study does it goes further into the inner workings of the brain. We have observed human behavior to light but in depth research has never been done (citation required). This is where this research comes into play. If they can properly map the impact of light on the human brain we can make better adjustment to our environment to maximize our efficiency through applications such as F.lux and who knows what else.

It stifles creativity rather than promoting it.
How does it stifle creativity? If you reuse copyright material you aren't being very creative.
Which is quoted in Transformers.

My point was I don't know anybody that couldn't tell you when they read hate speech.
