Instead of having a specially tailored version of search for each Constitution-free country, produce one limited version that would be, being the lowest common denominator of each of those countries' set of rules, usable in each. It would index only approved Chinese sites, would have nothing criticizing Putin or Erdogan, would forget individuals by default, and would bring up no restaurant listings during Ramadan. With so many restrictions built into it, Google Censored could be implemented by that French staff that has to work a thirty-hour week.
Rhen again it's Europe which are completely destroyed by Muslim and Africa immigration.
You're being premature, but I have been making a big effort to see it while its treasures are still there. This year, Iceland; next year, the Ligurian coast.
I hate to travel...Birmingham Alabama etc etc (epic shitholes).
It might surprise you to know that our Birmingham is not only a noticeably more refined place than their Birmingham, but has only about one-tenth as many rednecks - 'chavs', as they are called there.
America is kind of the land of idiots from the British perspective, I should think, as an American myself.
Actually this is an old, reflexive British academic perspective prevalent at the time, just like the reflexive anti-white perspective that seethes in our own academic culture today. (Hmmm, I just almost typoed acadermic, a word that ought to exist, to denote the thin-skinned nature of liberal arts culture).
But Manchester at that time was even less like it is today. It would not have had a gay district back then as it does now, while the postwar Beat bohemia movement was already gathering steam in the US. Jack Kerouac had already coined the phrase "Beat Generation" by 1948, and although the movement originally took root in Times Square and Greenwich Village, it didn't take long for it to transplant west.
I'm primarily commenting about conspiracy theorists here. On one hand "they" are conspiring to keep us "unhappy and afraid." On the other hand, an effective depression treatment would immediately be assailed as "they" feeding us feelgood dope to distract us from the real problems of the world.
But if a treatment for depression has been found, it might give us a feeling of agency to work on real-world problems instead of going down for the umpteenth time in the constant sea of manufactured gloom on public issues. An example is climate: deniers on one side, on the other activists who keep insisting that the problem is Real Serious Now, but at the same time reject any approaches that might actually fix the problem. Their reaction to the Haida sequestration experiment is an example: http://www.slate.com/articles/...
This is a small-scale experiment that worked, brilliantly, and just has to be scaled up and deployed in places where the algal bloom it produced would sink to abyssal depths after it dies. But climate activists were horrified that it was even tried.
Very insightful observation. People are not supposed to be happy, at least not for very long. If people are happy they will not change anything to risk it going away. A ruling elite wants people to be unhappy and afraid.

If the FDA approves this, and doctors began prescribing it for PTSD and depression, the pearl-clutching catastrophists would start calling it "soma" and riddle the Internet with quotes from Brave New World
Let's require every global warming activist to take MDMA. Then we could actually sit down and start fixing the carbon problem.
I didn't know there were that many Windows phones out there in the wild. With this return, that will make this the first smartphone to enjoy negative sales.
Amazon wants you to review a product as soon as you open the box. There is. Ever any follow up to elicit a review after you have used the product for a while. The people who do review after experience are the ones who had trouble with the product.
My own cure for the problem of that interesting show being on the streaming service I don't have is to wait for the end of the season, which means only about 10 episodes these days anyhow, and then view it on Netflix DVD.
The streaming market is now in that phase after a new tech becomes popular when there are large numbers of brands on the market. It was this way with cars in the 1920s. After the forthcoming big wave of consolidation, it won't be so much of a problem.
I mean, this is Slashdot, which brands anonymous comments as "cowards" to begin with. It seems to me nobody, including the site's administration, has a legitimate argument against anonymous comments.
The best argument against anonymous commenting on Slashdot is about two-thirds of the anonymous comments.
We need to export our bureaucrats and lobbyists there right away, forming a Deep State that can tie down every technological initiative with an unbreakable mesh of monopolies and regulations that reinforce each other so that nothing gets done. Replace every flash of initiative with a California style treadmill of wheedling for permits.
And if we find that some East Texas patent troll has not been paid its danegeld, we can send in the bunker-busters.
Yes, there is a tendency for doctors to use HIPAA as a handwave excuse when they just don't want to deal with patient email: https://www.usnews.com/opinion...
The engineer gets prosecuted for decisions signed off by the executives?
That's why an engineer who puts extra effort into doing a great job is rewarded with a laser-printed certificate of achievement in a handsome plastic frame, while an exec who gives the order to fudge on emissions testing walks away with millions because the implementing engineer was one who drew the legal lightning bolt.
Web forms are NOT email. Don't put a link on your website saying "email us" if it points to a web form.
Not necessarily. Because email is inherently insecure, banking and healthcare sites routinely point you to an SSL-enabled reply page. HIPPA actually requires correspondence to be handled this way.
Imagine, we could eat rare animals, or hybrid meat.
For the adventurous, I can see it going farther than that: "long pig" and from specific celebrities. Fans will pay a premium for Mark Wahlberg filet mignon.
I would imagine that they'll label it in some way just because I can't imagine vegetarians or vegans objecting to eating it.
Vegans, being religious psychoceramics who require no connection to animals in any way, will not eat vat meat. Vegetarians object specifically to the idea of killing for meat, so they will probably be receptive to this.
I'm another refugee exiled from my ancestral CrashPlan homeland. I used the macOS client, but for me the best feature of CrashPlan was its versioning, which you can set to "keep an infinite number of versions." This makes you bulletproof against ransomware. Deduplication worked really well on CrashPlan also: if I accumulated a terabyte of photographs on my local HD and then bought an umpteenth external disk to archive them on, CrashPlan figured this situation out without resending all that data over my usage-capped broadband.
Right at the moment Backblaze is the consensus replacement for CrashPlan, but it automatically throws out versions thirty days after a new version is created.

It's now going to be a cute little Pivot Porpoise.

Whereas Ernst Schroedinger's letters are both.
Among which were found an empty, tear-stained bag of "Schnucki" brand cat food.

My experience with smart people is that they hate travel, and with stupid people is that they like travel.
This must explain why so many stupid people get airline jobs, from nasty gate agents to drunk and suicidal pilots.

But then they get advice like this from the administrative side of medicine:

Then why does every single doctor office receptionist cite HIPAA as the reason why doctors won't communicate by email?

The ultimate PR stunt is going to come when someone 3-D prints the first blockchain.
Because they think Linux users can make their own storage out of mud and sticks.
