Well, obviously you should have been since wanting to be an early adopter of a nascent technology that hasn't been thoroughly vetted at all to DRIVE YOUR FUCKING CAR sure sounds like test pilot to me.
Probably get modded down. Don't give a fuck. I think this shit will/has been pushed out the door too early because money. Wait til it kills someone else.
There are lawyers with erections they're not even sure how they got right now.
Clinton is making it clear that for Democrats, immigration is an issue primarily about Latino voters --- not tech donors. The tech industry has sometimes thought of itself as first among equals when it comes to the "immigration reform" coalition --- now thereâ(TM)s reason for it to worry it might be last....
Some in the tech industry continue to nurture the hope that Congress can come together to pass a bill that just expands high-skilled visas, avoiding the political thicket of other immigration reforms. (During President Obamaâ(TM)s first term, bills to increase high-skilled visas were actually the closest to immigration reform that Congress came, though they were voted down by Democrats.)...
But itâ(TM)s still impossible to miss the message: Tech, and everyone else, needs to take a back seat to unauthorized immigrants and their families (millions of whom, of course, are US citizens and voters).
Yea. That makes sense. So she has not deviated from her "Say anything to get elected" course. Shocker.

Stop this shit with GWX Control Panel or Never10. I started off using the former on my g/fs computer but once I saw they were stepping up their "optional upgrade" (It's neither), I looked again and found an even better alternative. This is just an executable - I ran it through totalvirus.com first I'm sure you will too.
Personally I have Win 7 Ultimate on my primary machine (gamer here) and have never seen an nag window but other machines have other versions that have and I'm sick of it. I've even seen a few at work which are supposed to be disabled.
Come on Valve, this is your time to shine. Go STEAMOS Go.
Depressing is. China is working hard to out America America.
They don't have to destroy unions where there never were any.
These pictures just look like cleaner more expensive sweat shops to me. I wouldn't be surprised if they were carefully staged too, like their empty apartment buildings and whatnot.
place - that they don't have to hire anyone. It's another form of temp worker program. They don't owe benefits don't owe pension or 401k matching nor do they even have the possibility of being sued despite the kid being too young to work basically anywhere.
How much would they have paid a professional security firm or on staff IT to audit them and get this result?
Sounds like the legacy of Reaganomics (aka sell out to the highest bidder - "I got mines") to me - high unemployment, deregulation causing massive harm on many levels, low wages, eviscerated unions, corporate oligarchy running roughshod over actual people...
were willing to pay the ISPs to do this per instance and the fee was substantial enough I suspect the ISPs would change their tune.
Many people are locked in to local ISP monopolies. If they were serious they'd put the money up and people would have no alternative but to either stop/get more sophisticated/or get fleeced for the overpriced media laden with ads and threats...
a priority. It's how many people can you harvest data from. Remember, Verizon is home of the Super Cookie. Now, most Yahoo users are using it because they're probably used to it (i.e. elderly) and/or they don't know how to change their default Firefox search.
It's a whole new world of spying and tying that across the phone they might already have bugged means some more Google style multi-angle fuckery. It means they can set Yahoo as the default search on their phones and get ad revenue for the spying they're already doing too. It makes sense if you assume people are stupid (most are), the market has limited choices (it does), and you make more money from B2B than from your plebian "customers" who will *pay you* to be spied on.
over the skin-suit wearing Activision business Nazis. I didn't even know this was still a thing. I heard of pirate servers years ago and I thought they were all sued in to oblivion then.
The mistake you made was thinking that your requirements were the ones that mattered to them.
I expect this Nest shit to harvest as much and as intimate of data about you as possible in the most invasive way possible to bombard you with ads. Because just like Facebook, you're not their customer, businesses trying to stuff your face with said ads are.
Luckily I have 0 interest in home automation after seeing the X 10 shit in the 90's.
It says it guarantees Safe Harbor if they use the FCC format. What they will likely do is adopt the format and then try to weasel the information actually included and then claim Safe Harbor.
Making it a "suggestion" and offering the carrot of Safe Harbor is about avoiding being instantly sued for issuing a mandate that the carriers don't want them to have the right to give in the first place.
I'm pretty sure they're already being sued in as many ways as possible to stop their having any authority in the first place, I vaguely remember reading something about it.
It seems fairly clever to me I just hope the FCC is ready for the manipulative ways it will be implemented (which will obviously be in as useless a way as possible by the carriers).
I went to a meeting about going paperless. The first thing my boss did was go around and hand everyone a pamphlet about how we were going paperless.
While it's probably less printing than it was before there is still quite a lot of printing where I work, as in cases of printer paper and dozens of cartridges per year.
I saw a chart somewhere and basically there is 0 incentive to subscribe if you're not in North America unless you have a VPN to make it appear that you are.

Internet Access = Human Right, at least in the modern western west it's basically impossible to live without it (find a job, etc).
As such ISPs need to be common carriers whether they like it or not. Regulated as a utility like power and water.
"But now I feel like this is extremely dangerous.
No fucking shit, it always was.
It gives you a false sense of security.
Sounds like wealth redistribution - Darwin style.
I'm not ready to be a test pilot.

Which makes sense as this is an even more gilded age.

At least their unemployment problem will be far worse than ours when the robots finish taking all the jobs =)

who has more to take? The kid/parents or the bullshit web 2.0 company with the hyper inflated valuation?

Yes and yes. Significantly less.

Yes, good point, that would make sense.
I already got down voted, though, lol. I suggest those doing so do some fucking research before they exercise their emotions via moderation.
doing this. Big businesses don't do *anything* "out of the goodness of their hearts", especially not an entity the size of Amazon.

that a company bought by Facebook would have shady as fuck ToS designed to harvest data and fuck you every imaginable way.
SHOCKED.

Been here since the 90's. Completely agree.
Please?
