You can't even follow your own statements logically. You blamed the democrats, when it's clear the republicans are doing the same and probably much worse.
Reread his post. That's exactly what he said:
We've complained for years that the political elite is owned by the corporations, and that there's no difference between having a D or R after a candidate's name.
Don't blame corruption on just the Republicans, it's not intellectually honest and distracts people from the true problems.
WhatsApp messages are end-to-end encrypted - or so they say, at least. I'm by no means an expert so I take their word for it, including it being unbreakable and WhatsApp not being able to read my messages while in transit and so.
Either there's no value in the data that Facebook has negotiated to pay lots of money for or the sentence above is just marketing (ie. lies). Facebook, after likely doing its due diligence, is betting on the former...
This has been my experience as well. When I've been able to identify and directly contact the actual hiring manager, they seem delighted to talk to me and always lament the complete lack of qualified applicants (none of them ever got my resume passed to them from HR). So far I've ended up turning down most of these offers, but you have to wonder how many other qualified resumes the hiring manager never even sees.
Any communications with HR, even if addressed to a specific person, are just blackholed. I have no idea why companies even have these useless departments or if there are actually any real people in them at all.
Scientific research in the US is conducted in entirely metric, without exception. Medicine, the military, and most engineering firms in the US use metric.
That street signs, recipes, and people's height/weight use customary units is a non-issue. Even many countries that claim to use metric still cling to customary units in trivial areas such as this. Getting all bent out of shape about it is silly.
Tethering on my t-mobile branded phone doesn't cost anything extra and isn't throttled at all. In fact, I don't even see a "tethering" option in the choices for data plans. Where are you getting this?
(Assuming of course that after paying the Danegeld the amortized cost would still be less than switching to a different phone on a different provider.)
Assuming that paying the Danegeld once gets you off of the hook forever, which you know it doesn't (since you're referring to it as Danegeld). Verizon's next step it to find out who is willing to pay more on a continual basis and then expect it to be paid regularly.
You're already paying for service. Paying extra to avoid new abuses is setting a bad precedent.
Which comes with the added bonus of actually paying attention to driving instead of fucking around with your phone until somebody honks (or your car beeps) to tell you that the light changed. Everybody else thanks you, too. At least everyone who isn't fucking around with their phone instead of driving.
Speaking of false, let me know how the hell you feel your Mid2012 MBP has any relevance in a discussion about how hard it is to upgrade their current line of hardware.
There are two things you can now upgrade after purchase in Apple laptops; Jack and Shit.
It's relevant because the mid-2012 MBP is the last notebook of theirs that has upgradable memory and SDD and they still sell it to this day.
It may not be from the current generation of hardware, but it's certainly in the current line of hardware.
No kidding. This idea that every hobby needs to generate teh profitz that seems to permeate nearly ever corner of the internet is so obnoxious. Especially since it always seems to play out in the form of ever more advertising.
The hosting costs are minimal, even for a big project like VLC. They can easily be paid for by the involved devs or covered through a few unsolicited donations. My hobbies cost more than that and I'm not constantly seeking to monetize them.
But copyright is so broken it's criminal. Despite the problems, we have greater problems in American to solve, such as the open disdain for and circumvention of law at all levels, in every area.
The latter problem is intimately related to, and follows from, the former (and similarly broken laws). Fixing copyright law will actually help to fix the open disdain for law in general.
To make laws that man cannot, and will not obey, serves to bring all law into contempt.
For events like these, I drag out ye olde Motorola from the Reagan administration and leave the iPhone at home.
It doesn't have to be a smartphone to be caught by a Stingray. If it can communicate with the cell network, it can be identified by the Stingray: smartphone, dumbphone, and bag phone alike (linked because, yes... GSM bag phones exist).
Almost every one is from the same are code and exchange as me, just a different last 4. A couple of times it was even my own number.
I absolutely love that the spammers do this. My cell phone number has the area code where I went to college and, since I moved, I don't get calls from a single other person in that area code. I've just put the entire area code in my blacklist and I get annoyed by way less of these calls.
Also, it seems to take a little bit of time before you start to feel full, even if you've eaten enough food to make you full. Eating slower helps you stop eating before you get too stuffed. Drinking water with meals also helps you get the "full" feeling before you're painfully over-full.
I don't have any weight problems, but I absolutely hate the feeling of being over-full. I noticed that I'm way more likely to have it happen if I eat very quickly.
With the increased energy I also did a bit more weightlifting.
Building muscle burns energy, but even just having more muscle increases your resting energy consumption and can help you lose weight. Handy!
You keep mixing up velocity and acceleration. Delta V is literally a "change in velocity" and has units of m/s. It is calculated as (final velocity, m/s) - (initial velocity, m/s).
The only time in space travel (using orbital mechanics) that acceleration is important is when timing is critical because you are directly counteracting a decelerating force, as with gravity in a vertical burn or drag in an atmosphere. Timing may also be important when your desired burn time is longer than your burn window, but that situation doesn't make a maneuver impossible, it just makes it more complicated/time-consuming.
The first line of defence, of course, is to make sure all voting machines have a permanent paper record of each vote.
For that to be an effective defense, you also need to make sure that the electronic vote matches the paper vote. Since paper ballots are easily human- and machine-readable and more difficult to discreetly tamper with, what advantage do electronic voting machines bring to the table?
If hand-counting ballots takes too long for our ADD society, we should standardize on a ballot layout and let many companies offer ballot scanners to speed up the process.
In the US, any powers that are not explicitly delegated to the government are forbidden by default. The correct question is, "Where is collecting this information allowed?"
[An] Enumeration shall be made within three Years after the first Meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent Term of ten Years, in such Manner as they shall by Law direct.
As that section is talking about taking a headcount for the purposes of representation, the intention was probably just to count the population. The exercise of the power is left up to Congress, though, so the current census is most likely constitutional. If nothing else, it would probably be defended using one of the elastic clauses.
In the telcos case they did fiber projects in order to get grant money, and Verizon sold off their fiber business to Frontier after the grant money ran low.
Which illustrates how the grant money is being poorly allocated. Companies shouldn't be able to pull a profit directly from the grants, but should be using them to acquire infrastructure that they couldn't/wouldn't otherwise get. It sounds like they were just treating the grants as free money because they were given too much or there weren't sufficiently durable strings attached to them. Why would they sell off an upgraded, and paid for, fiber network?
You efforts are much more profitably employed in protecting your passwords to begin with.
Or avoiding passwords altogether and using secure element bound PKI for access to critical systems. In addition to seriously raising the bar for unauthorized access, you can get generate nice audit logs of who is accessing what and when because there is no need for sharing admin passwords.
"Doing the opposite" would typically mean a reversal of the verb, so the opposite of "defying your elders" would be "obeying your elders". The opposite of "defying your elders by having sex" is either "obeying your elders by having sex", "obeying your elders by not having sex", or "defying your elders by not having sex", depending on what the elders ordered you to do and whether you're talking about the opposite of "defying" or "having [sex]".
"Defying your children" isn't the opposite of "defying your elders", it's a translation of "defying" to a different object, "your children".
Ridiculously pedantic and likely to prompt an even more ridiculously pedantic response? Oh, I think so!
You spent 3 hours of your life watching someone else play a video game?
I was thinking the same thing. That someone could actually watch three hours of somebody else playing a game sounds almost like a glowing endorsement of the game. I doubt that I could watch twenty minutes of somebody else playing games that I actually like.

That's what I was thinking. It's like grad school.

It's the systemd model. The exchange between Linux and Windows goes both ways now! Progress!!
Righto. I saw the details of the new plan right after I submitted. Mea culpa.

This is why McCain is staunchly anti-trump.
Speaking of somebody else who became unaccountably ridiculous during his run for president...
Didn't they bother to test it before it released? If the game relies on yet unreleased drivers to function properly, then it's the game.

Ok, why not? Why don't they have a right to your name, your age, or even your citizenship? Where is collecting this information forbidden?
The usual answer to that question is right here:
In the US, any powers that are not explicitly delegated to the government are forbidden by default. The correct question is, "Where is collecting this information allowed?"
The answer to that question is in Article 1, Section 2:
As that section is talking about taking a headcount for the purposes of representation, the intention was probably just to count the population. The exercise of the power is left up to Congress, though, so the current census is most likely constitutional. If nothing else, it would probably be defended using one of the elastic clauses.
