My friends and I actually started using hangouts once I switched to Linux about a month ago, Skype works, but is far too problematic and doesn't support group video chat, at least in my case.
I love the fact that you can limit the bitrate on incoming and outgoing video feeds as well.
That's all fine and well. I don't think waiters are getting replaced by robots in the near future, too much dexterity and flexibility required. Although, be prepared to pay though the nose for the food you used to think was affordable due to the wage hike.
This is very true. I'll normally only buy electronics from either Newegg or if it's an order that fulfilled by Amazon under the name of the MFG of the thing I'm buying.
This should go without saying, but if the price seems too good to be true, it probably is, just like with anything else you buy.
Unfortunately, this doesn't help with all those 2GB USB flash drives from China, which are labeled and firmware hacked to appear to have 64+ gigabytes of usable space.
You can fix that issue very simply by only buying name brand memory. (Sandisk and Kingston are my most trusted) It's not that expensive, especially considering that you'll actually get what you pay for.
The company also announced that it will be releasing Windows 10 Anniversary Update this summer for all Windows 10 users free of charge.
So at some point, Windows 10 will no longer be free to use then, what happens if in the future you refuse to pay to upgrade to the latest version on Win 10?
The process used to gain access to Syed Rizwan Farook's iPhone 5c might not work on other devices, according to an FBI official with knowledge of the investigation.
This just gives Apple the push it needs to make the next gen of phones even more secure than the 5S, 6 and 6S.
The FBI thought they had it easy using Cellibrite to unlock a 5C which doesn't even have a dedicated encryption chip, they've got another thing coming.
If the information you referenced is true, then 50.4% of minimum wage workers are age 24 or younger. So not false. That means the the other 49.6% of workers are not advancing or making good career choices
Also, what does supplemental mean? I guess you've never had a second job that paid less than your primary one eh?
I said it in the parent already, minimum wage jobs are not career paths.
You work at Mcburgerbelldees and you want 15 dollars/hour cause minimum wage just isn't cutting it.
You're right, but the thing is, you should be working towards a better job, flipping burgers or dropping fries in hot oil isn't and shouldn't be a career goal, nor does it merit 15 dollars/hour.
Minimum wage jobs are there for supplemental income and those who are just starting work for the first time.
I understand, shit's expensive, I've been there and done that. Used to work in convenience for 6 years before I started work with a Fortune 500 company making great money for the area I live in, 7 years later and I've moved into the office as part of the management staff. It's not a hard concept to grasp, but if you're not willing to work hard, towards a goal that doesn't involve doing as little work as possible, you'll never get anywhere.
As an aside, if you go into any Wawa or Royal Farms in this area, they have already done away with the waiters, they have been replaced by an automated kiosk. And guess what, they're always to work on time, always do their job and never get the order wrong unless you entered it that way.
So what makes more sense to you? Paying a snotty over-privileged 20 something 15/hour, or buying a 500~ dollar kiosk that never complains? The decision seems cut and dry to me.
As true as this may be, if Microsoft would try developing some quality software and really step up their game in response to the competition instead of developing an all-encompassing spyware platform, maybe I would feel differently.
Win7 is truly a great OS, even 7 years later and Win10 is doing nothing to preserve the legacy of the brand.
I will continue to use Win7 until it is either pried from my cold dead hands or Linux gaming has reached comparable adoption rates
I've already gone and disabled Automatic updates on my Win7 machine and so far after deleting the KB and GWX folders, I haven't had any issues.
I can't say Im too confident that it will stay that way for long as M$ is constantly looking for more nefarious ways to ram Win10 down my throat.
I did actually upgrade my Win8.1 Laptop to 10 and it's not bad, but I don't want that on my gaming rig. I'll gladly move to MintLinux or SteamOS long before that happens.

Things already seem to be getting out hands.
Getting or giving? Big difference.
On a completely unrelated note, I could use a hand.
So everything you do in this install of Ubuntu will report back to M$ too eh?
Just take the plunge and drop Windows 10.

uh DUH!

Fist question should be - do this state have bad politicians and complicated laws?
Find me a state that doesn't have this issue and I'll start packing.
This is a simple problem really.

I think the moral of the story is that the RIAA, Sony, Columbia, etc don't care where the money comes from, just as long as they money comes in.
Besides, it's not like the artist would see a dime of the settlement if it ever came to pass.
This is why the music industry is fucked.

Like i need another reason not to use Twitter. Sheesh
Wouldn't it just be the damnedest thing if this happens to drag out for a few more months and another "tragedy" happens?
DOJ: "Now we have another Iphone from the Cape Cod Massacre that needs to be unlocked, the blood is on your hands Tim."
I wouldn't put it past our gov to do something like this, seeing as they love pulling on our heartstrings.
Good luck changing your retinal structure when the database gets hacked.
Well you know, it is Verizon handing out the rewards.
It's much easier to be skeptical after realizing that.
Face recognition is all fine and well till you grow a beard, or have a stroke.

Highly unlikely.
More likely, confiscated and given away during the monthly employee empound raffle.
You had me at Cryoscapes.
Who knew AC's had opposable thumbs?
I would be super pissed, especially if it only went up 99 meters
