But Hitler has something to do with it? Politically and ideologically Trump and Hitler are the same. So what's your point? Cue the cricket sound....
That aside, sure, Trump has nothing to do with Go (as long as Go exclusively generates results that match Trumps alternate reality), but the commenter used it as an example. He should have picked something else, like the US qualifying for the World Cup.
I think the opportunities to flip these states are there. By then those Trump fans in these states are still waiting for America to become great again and getting their mining or stamping plant jobs back that Reagonomics killed in the 80s. I do agree that the Democrats in their current constellation have the unique quality to screw this up.
Same was said about the total disaster of a president: Reagan. Massive deficit spending, double digit unemployment, tax cuts only for the rich, almost starting a nuclear war...and yet he easily won a second term. We are at a point where either end of the spectrum rather votes for a groper and child molester as long as the candidate of the other side doesn't get in.
As far as Go is concerned...how many more buggy and convoluted programming languages do we need? I'm not saying let's all go back and code exclusively in Plankalkül, but there isn't anything that Go solves so tremendously better than any of the dozen other modern programming languages.
Why is why we need municipal fiber networks...something that will solve a multitude of problems, but is fiercely opposed by the ultranationalistic conservatives and big business billionaire buffoons like Trump.
Seems to be myth enough to have a special counsel run an intensive investigation while Trump & Co are spending most of their time hiding evidence of their borderline criminal actions.
I don't think the choice of words is appropriate, BUT this kind of talk is EXACTLY what Trump uses on a daily basis. You think Trump is fair and balanced when it comes to opinions that do not match his 1:1? Sheesh, how delusional can one be?
Those idiots were drinking the Fox "News" cool aid. It is not a surprise. Put billionaires and industry shills into power and those are the results you get. No surprise that the only companies complaining are those who would be impacted the most. Google will lose a lot of revenue when folks have to pay up to watch cat videos on YouTube or when using Google office apps becomes cost prohibitive. Also, all those companies that boom due to cable cutters signing up for their service will havea tough time.
The only hope here is that the states follow through and start building their own Internet infrastructure. Not that state governments are any less subject to bribes and kickbacks, but it is much harder to dish out money to 50 entities than just one.
In all fairness, ISPs do have a point. They have to invest into their infrastructure in a market where asking for higher access fees is a no go. The only beneficiaries of those investments are other companies. Google, Amazon, Netflix and others would be significantly smaller and less powerful if they had to pay up for the bigger pipes that support their at times even free services. Some traffic shaping needs to be allowed, not all Internet traffic needs to be traveling with the same priority. That traffic shaping has to be consistent across the board and be specific to type of traffic regardless of source and destination. But why compromise when you have reckless filthy rich folks calling the shots with a spineless Congress more interested in keeping sex scandals under the covers.
Some places do that, either permanently or only when no movement is detected in the vicinity. I spent some time in a small village in Germany and after 11 PM the street lights were turned off except at intersections. That saved a lot of electricity and money. Several places now have street lights with motion detectors so that they only turn on if a pedestrian or a car comes along. That is a good compromise to save power without sacrificing safety and security. Another option is to dim the lights down when no movement is detected.
The guy before put the protections in place that the ultranationalist, big corp hugging billionaires now want to remove. That is clearly and exclusively without any doubt on the new guy! Trump voters fucked up the entire country. Are you happy now?
Then how come that essentially all development environments are modeled after VisualStudio? I'm no Microsoft fanboi, but the dev tools are quite good. VS is the best product Microsoft has, although it should be less buggy....but who bothers with QA these days and fixes bugs when new buggy features can be stuffed in?
There needs to be some middle ground. Preserving the "dumb pipe" is not the best solution. Traffic shaping helps to make it more likely that things like VoIP packets or video streams are getting preferred treatment. Stuff like email or other not time sensitive traffic should get second tier treatment. That does not mean preventing transfer, but at a lower speed (priority). Although the Internet was designed as such, there is really no reason to treat everything the same. Other example: file downloads. Sure, we want to get the stuff fast, but does 10 seconds more really impact user experience that negatively? I gladly take that delay over having to pay for watching a cat video on YouTube.
Paywalling content is OK. What is not OK is paywalling content and after paying for it getting plastered with advertisement as it is typically the case. Sadly, often times is the content then not worth the money paid. There is a reason why established media companies have problems.
At issue here is that the paywalling will shift from the content creators and content providers to companies who provide the connection, but monetize access. It is essentially a drastic Internet access fee increase while keeping the ad slogans of 9.99$ Internet plans alive.
Filed a complaint with the FCC, but I doubt it matters much. Does anyone know where I can file a complaint against all those effen morons who voted all these Republican billionaires into office? To put it bluntly, those idiots fucked the entire country.
When it was wrong then, why is it OK today? I am sick of the Trump fans pointing out that others messed up as well and therefore it is OK for Trump & Co to do the same. With that insane logic anything can be excused.
The people who voted for Trump hate consumers...means themselves. None of this comes as a surprise. Just like Hitler, Trump was very upfront and honest about which crap he plans to pull off. Now he can do it thanks to the idiots at the polls and the club of gropers and child molesters in Congress.
As Adenauer once said, every country has the government it deserves. The path to hell started with putting these inept Tea Party morons into office and clinging to ultranationalistic ideas.
...we can be happy to have a train come to town maybe once or twice a day. I gladly take 20 seconds early any time in exchange for a decent regional train service.
Trump is one reason why higher ed costs more for people. He supports the moronic tax plan of the billionaire's party (Republicans) that cuts tax deductions for student loans. What Trump and Co should do what several other countries do: no tuition at public colleges and universities and on top of that a monthly payment that is half grant and half no interest loan. Just alone eliminating interest on student loans will be a huge benefit. Instead they make this all significantly more expensive just so that big corps and billionaire clans can save taxes.
Agreed...and they would give Firefox a decent UI and not this Chrome crap where everything is hidden behind cryptic icons and the rest crammed into the almighty address bar. Thankfully we have Pale Moon....
Yes. Climate change does not exist in the US as per Trump's decree that it is a Chinese hoax. Case closed! And now let's burn some more dirty coal and tar sand oil.
There are far more compelling reasons to replace Krapersky. The biggest one is that it is a total system performance killer. With Krapersky installed it is about the same as not turning the box on. It's a shit product and only gained popularity with corporations and organizations because it bulk licensing it is dirt cheap. In the end folks pay up one way or the other.
Several German nuclear power plants are built on ground fractures and in active earthquake regions. Sure, the earthquakes in Germany tend not to be that strong, but it is unpredictable. Further, around any of the nuclear facilities increased health issues are detected that really only allow for one conclusion.
I do share the critic to some extent because turning German nuclear power plants off means currently importing more and at times even more dangerous nuclear power from France and Belgium. Tihange is a disaster in the making and that crap heap is about to blow, yet politicians and lobbyists insist on keeping that junk reactor going for years to come....while moving as far away from it as possible.
I stopped reading after the claim "emissions-free nuclear power". Since when is nuclear power emissions free? Look at any one of the nuclear power plants and each of them leaks radiation. They also expel highly radioactive and poisonous end products that most countries in the world have a tough time finding a final resting spot for because these end products stay that toxic for thousands of years to come. I don't claim that soft coal fired power plants are better. Nothing good can come from burning potting soil.
The key to meeting emissions limits is by lowering energy consumption. So turn off all the bitcoin miners, street lights at night, and the avalanche of always on devices that now crawl into every crook and nanny as IoT.

In the end it is exclusively nature's fault for not adjusting fast enough to our changes in lifestyle.
