The most recent academic research suggests that, on average, immigrants raise the overall standard of living of American workers by boosting wages and lowering prices. One reason is that immigrants and U.S.-born workers generally do not compete for the same jobs; instead many immigrants complement the work of U.S. employees and increase their productivity. For example, low-skill immigrant laborers allow U.S.-born farmers, contractors, or craftsmen to expand agricultural production or to build more homes—thereby expanding employment possibilities and incomes for U.S. workers. Another reason is that businesses adjust to new immigrants by opening stores, restaurants, or production facilities to take advantage of the added supply of workers; more workers translate into more business.
Yes, but that's most likely because they feel it won't benefit them now that they are 40 years older and won't enjoy much of the economic progress that can come in the future. It is typical for the much older generation to vote in their favor which is usually not the best in the long run, whereas someone younger will vote in their best interest which includes the long term.
Both sides have been propagandized to some extent, but considering how technology is moving, globalization is something that will happen, whether you like it or not. There are both good and bad things in terms of globalization, but I really don't see any benefit for the UK to exit the EU, as well as almost half of its citizens. Also, stating that globalization is the result of the widening wealth gap depends on which country you speak of because each country gets affected to it differently depending on its current economy. From what I remember in terms of macroeconomics, globalization and immigration actually benefits countries and increase standards of living.
Back in 2007 I bought my first touchscreen Smartphone, the AT&T Tilt. With all that was wrong with it, it also didn't have a headphone jack and expected you to use a usb to stereo adapter that came with it. Fine, I have to carry an extra adapter. The issue came with wanting to listen to music and charging the phone at the same time (battery life was horrible even compared to today's standards). I had to shell out extra cash for a special 3rd party converter that allowed me to charge and listen to music at the same time. It was a pain.
Even though I use bluetooth headphones when I workout I don't want to have to remember to carry an adapter if for some reason my headphones die and decide to switch over to wired headphones. So yeah, i'd never buy a phone without a dedicated headphone jack/2cents
Agreed but I see it all (consumer) being handled by just ones and zeros, considering the fact that qubits can expand on that to have data be past binary I can see a whole lot happening with it
Yes, you are correct and I am well aware of that, but still, just the thought of it becoming personal computing and storing data on a qubit just sounds soo... futuristic! Doubt I will see anything in my lifetime, but still we can dream:)
But I am not sure what system or software can take advantage of it. Personally I want to see progress being made on quantum computing for consumer lever stuff.
And I don't think they get it either. Napster was revolutionary because the ability to search and trade songs with people over the internet. Yes it was piracy, but it became essentially became an icon of "anti-music industry" and Anti-RIAA. And it seems people are still trying to profit by it, which I don't get how they think it will work.
I mean I get it, there's some nostalgia to the name, but the name was related to a service that has long been dead. What customers are they trying to get? People in their 30s who remember the name and for some reason will flock to it because it reminds them of their teen/college years? Hardly i'd think./rant
Screw current events or politics, personally I prefer those that hack them with something funny and whatnot. Brings better joy to some random driver's life if they have a small chuckle then reading some persons pointless opinion.
I am not arguing that it's easy to enable but it still warns you regardless if it is a "shiny button" to enable, but you'd think because it's a bad file you download from the net or a questionable email they would be smarter than to enable it. If you decide to enable it that's your fault. It's like going to some random questionable website "Oh I need a new codec to stream this video? sure i'll install it!"
Does this mean you can blame the creator of javascript for creating pop-ups that allow you to install malware disguised as "codec downloads"? How about blaming your bank because someone set up a phishing site that looks just like the bank site. Yeah...
Well, in most cases when you call microsoft as M$ instead of MS or such, it's like calling them "Microshaft" or similar, which makes it hard to take a comment seriously because the comment itself isn't written seriously.
I am not arguing that a lot of microsoft's software has issues, but microsoft of course wants to appeal to the masses, this complaint about not having a pop-up and instead having a bar with an easy to find button isn't less safe, it still prevents the macro from instantly running, it's just more intuitive.
You can only warn but you can't prevent stupid. It's not like the code gets executed right away. You have to PURPOSELY enable it. This is no different when people install whatever off the internet because they don't know better, while running an expired virus scanner that came with their computer when they bought it back in 2011. While I understand that Microsoft is a very user friendly OS compared to something like Linux, you can really only do so much without making it TOO user friendly where you can't do anything.
It's determining your trade-factor between simplicity and security Some people just want their software to work quickly and out of the box, others are willing to spend hours to properly learn and set up the software. Anyway, when you sign onto your computer with teamviewer you still have to log in to the desktop. At least that's how it's setup on mine. These people probably used the same passwords with no TFA. As for your Dr Oz reference... I guess? I never seen the show.
Well, last time I tired using RDP for windows, it was annoying. You had to ensure that specific ports are open and firewalls allow it and so on. I am sure it's a lot better now, but it left a bad taste in my mouth to give it a try again when I can use a piece of software from a reputable company that makes my life much better.
You ask why install software that has a potential to make your system more insecure? That goes with ALL software, including all the recent reports from antivirus, OEM upgrading software, browsers such as firefox and chrome. Why else would people install software if it adds another hole? because they see the gains outweigh the risk. Like anything you have to determine if the risk outweighs the benefit or not. It might not work for you, but works just fine for me, everyone is different.
Well, I use it for both the simplicity and capability to access my computer from both my android phone and the computer at work (browser, since i'm not allowed to install anything w/o IT permission).
When you factor in the fact that it has TFA, it's a pretty solid program that works well with multiple monitors. Why do you think scammers use it as well? It's a damn good program, free, and easy to use. Perfect to walk through an average user to install.
I really only would think you would hack myspace out of sheer boredom or curiosity of the security. Given that majority of the user names and passwords are from inactive accounts, and I would think most of the emails and passwords are outdated.

So they're like the vegans of technology? no wait... those are ones without cellphones/smartphones... ok, the vegans of media... I guess..
because they have horrible security and greater information.

It would be interesting to see scotland leave the UK and rejoin the EU
Judging by the stats it's not the "average people" but scared old people who cares nothing of the younger generation.

But how well does a system know to allocate it to different cores?

probably... efficiently? Doubt it.

yeah, that's funny until the zombie apocalypse happens and people think it's a joke and drive to their demise... well, maybe that is still funny....

No good deed goes unpunished? Sounds about right... sadly.

Kind of hard to take you seriously since you reference microsoft as m$
