The solution to this is to use a 3rd company which is only legislated locally. This means MS could turn around and say it's not their data and it's not on their storage. They can then provide the details for the company in question to eventually realize they have to way or prying the data out of them.
Lesson here is don't cause the US government to want to get into you data and they won't. Otherwise they will. Data out of your hands is not safe anywhere. This has been true of money for a long time with offshore accounts becoming less and less isolated from big government such as the US.
People with one arm can have their system turned accordingly. No sense in stopping 99.9% of other users from being controlled because we can't control 0.01% or less.
BUT regardless the system isn't ideal. There are more reliable ways but I think we aren't there yet. The best way at this point in time is to punish the offenders.
It's pretty simple. Deal with is like you deal with drunk drivers. Take their license away. The amount of accidents caused by texting and driving is higher than the ones caused by drinking and driving leaving aside deadly accidents.
Once you've prosecuted enough drivers the word will get out and this shit will stop. FFS, we didn't have cell phones 10 years ago so what made it so important to answer the text right away.
Many scientists in the last decade have managed to turn their research into businesses (Look at Walter White). The problem is abstract science. There is no use for science that cannot be partially applied at this time.
That's not what I was pointing out. What I was pointing out is the lack of wanting to help further generations. Nobody if forcing anybody but I expect those who don't want to help to stop singing the conspiracy song and calling everybody a liar just because they don't want to be the black sheep. It gets old really quick especially for those educated enough to understand what is reasonable for compromise. The naysayers are just preventing very simple changes from being applied.
It don't find this any different than cigarette propaganda in the 70s. While health groups were trying to save people one cigarette at a time, the manufacturers were putting up advertisement to make people feel at ease that smoking wasn't going to ruin their lives.
Actually in Europe you can often see very high traffic roundabouts controlled with lights. It's actually very efficient when dealing with multi lane roundabouts since the two major problems with roundabouts are: 1. City can't control the flow. In this case the lights allow flow control 2. Heavy traffic in one direction blocks traffic in the other direction. Also resolved with traffic lights.
In many cases the lights are only used during traffic jams to avoid blockage.
Have roundabout been trialed in big cities? I know it doesn't apply to one way streets unless 2 of them meet.
The small town I grew up in doubled in size since I left and they replaced 2 major intersections with roundabouts. The congestion has been reduced significantly and the police posted numbers showing a 75% reduction in accidents at those intersections in the first 5 years of implementation.
My apologies. I did call you a liar without actual proof so that's my bad.
On a side note, your original comment:
Seriously, a person who cannot install and use linux today should not be allowed to use a computer.
was assuming anybody cares about the computer itself. I'm sure there are plenty of things in your life that you use and don't understand. And if you do understanding everything you use then I'll call you "all knowing" but reality is that people live in bubbles. Most people try to keep the complicated for their jobs and keep the rest of their lives simple. That's why you call the plumber when you need a leak repaired.
1. How much economy is greater than the future of human kind? 2. What short term benefits do we gain by compromising now? 3. What are the long term benefits? 4. What is a reasonable amount of compromise?
Every time this debate is brought up I get the same answers and it immediately points me towards how selfish our society has become. I know that me personally am willing to help the next generations by making reasonable compromises right now but it seems it's not the general consensus.
What he wrote isn't that complicated to understand and only points out the fact that many variables were brought into the equation. As human beings, we love waiting for things to be a problem before dealing with them.
How long did it take for us to decide putting our waste water in our lakes and rivers is a bad idea? The answer is thousands of years. The reason for this is that it was never an issue until enough was being dumped in. What we know is that our planet has worked well without humans for millions of years but in the last 100 we have made our presence more obvious than ever. Is it unreasonable for research to point us towards a path of prevention? I doubt there's any harm in that.
After the release of the first Fast and Furious movie, there was a massive increase in performance and after market part sales. At the time I was working for one of the major distributors and the growth they experienced was massive. An industry that was already alive at the time (classic restorations repro parts) also noted a major increase in sales.
BTW, do you know how much of an increase in sex toy sales there was after the release of the book "50 shades of grey"? HUGE amounts. http://www.newswire.ca/en/stor...
Entertainment has a direct influent on a very large portion of the population and you are surrounded by proof.
Maybe you aren't as influenced since you sound smart enough to make decisions based on logic but I assure you that's not the case of a large percentage of the population. Most people pick their clothing based on what characters and shows they like let alone what they eat and drink.
Thanks for writing this. Someone had to say it. Not all politicians head to bribe city. I would even say that most have good intensions until they get tempted by bribes and other incentives. Becoming a politician isn't the easiest road and it's definitively not the quickest path to financial success.
It's not the school. It's the online program they use. I asked her the same thing. Apparently is fairly new software but required local running software... Not sure why.
Network connection. I would need the distro to successfully install network drivers before I can do anything with the network.
Anyhow, the fact that Linux has not gained momentum on PCs is proof that it's still not there. Sure, they got the mobile market and that's great but start throwing it random hardware and it needs drivers that may or may not be hard to find.
Not saying Linux doesn't work. What I'm saying is that it's not a simple install for home users. Windows isn't always a piece of cake either but it has much more running time than Linux on home computers. There is a much bigger pool of experience and troubleshooting since 95% of used it and still use it. I'm not talking from the side of my mouth. Proof is that Linux has NOT cough on with end users. Reason for this is that it just wasn't what they wanted.
Linux was neatly packaged as Android on very set hardware and now people buy it. The first few version of Android were garbage but when they started getting it together it became the #1 selling OS in the world. The difference here is that PCs aren't like smartphones. Each PC varies in hardware specs which is where most Linux distros fall flat on their face.
Don't take me for a Windows fanboy or Linux hater. I'm neither. I'm a technology guy that has been successful in life by picking the right technology for the right situation. Linux has it's place and so does Windows.

Abstract science is science that has potential to be applied but isn't confirmed yet. E.g. Higgs Boson particle.
The solution to this is to use a 3rd company which is only legislated locally. This means MS could turn around and say it's not their data and it's not on their storage.

To answer your question. It ensures our roads are war ready.

my 2 cents.
From having read bot positive and negative articles about bitcoins, it sounds to me that the system just can't work as it is flawed in too many ways.
Is PayPal doing this as a mean to be in should this concept go mainstream or is intending to focus on making it mainstream?
Just turning the favor. But you only read what you wanted to so who cares.

I do but you lost the original topic so there's no point in going into it.

No, only 90% of computer has Windows. There must be a lack of experience out there.

I figured we were going backwards when the primary reason for buying a computer or smartphone was facebook.
U nailed it.
But suspend resume. Argument made.
Thanks!
