Taking a looking at the list of censorship bodies *cough* I mean rights organizations, I'm guessing I wont be able to say anything on twitter that offends anyone about anything at all without being banned!
Scary days with thought police being deployed under the label of trust and safety.
I'm actually pretty upset about this move as all dissenting views will be shutout from the new clean and family friendly twitter.
Honestly the only way to deal with issues is to let everyone have their opinion and you as the user decide who the crazies are, not the twitter stasi patrols
Heavy days, Heavy days for the Internet's freedoms.
Black taxis (the iconic meter driven type) here are prohibitively expensive.
Minicabs are incredibly unreliable and can have very dodgy drivers.
Ubers provides the following: credit card payment, instant booking and availability checking, ourney planner and destination address sync with the driver's GPS,
A rating system for drivers and passengers.
They are also Available in areas where black taxi service doesn’t exist or is incredibly infrequent.
They offer extremely cheap prices for most journey types compared to black taxis/ minicabs.
Clean fuels would indeed be awesome.
Unfortunately when we apply commercial interference and box ticking, we end up with something worse.
i.e. replacing CO2 with No2 in the UK, just to meet carbon emissions targets specifically, has been a terrible health blight on Britain's air quality.
The road to hell, good intentions and all that.
If you take back something you previously gave for free, you are going to have a bad time.
Some companies never learn this lesson - breaking previous expectations of service levels is not a way to go about gaining/keeping customers (happy).

If I defrag the hard drive, will it create an irreversible cataclysmic nuclear chain reaction?
1) Google "solid progress"
2) The top hit is this article
3) profit ???
Nice work Marissa, here's that extra bonus for you!

What a waste of money.
Nobody cares for goodwill gestures that don't end up anywhere useful.
How about just paying your fair share?
use an ad-blocker.
Put up a couple of USB fans around your computer to keep you cool and to confuse the enemy.
1) The security model is broken by design.
Android barely restricted apps from taking over your entire phone with an agree box until only fairly recently with Marshmallow.
2) The updating model is broken by design
Carriers don't care if your phone OS is out of date. Manufacturers don't care if your phone OS is out of date.
Bottom line constraint from the supply side - They both want to sell you a new phone or contract.
Bottom line constraint from the developer side - No major punitive incentives from Google to force upgrade have been passed to Vendors, Carriers.
The customer is always our bitch.
So basically they built in an backdoor into every modern intel CPU that is secured by technology they protect through obscurity.

What could possibly go wrong?
I'm kinda attached to my DNA, I'd rather the CIA didn't collect it for any purposes!
I've never heard of this model/brand being used in consumer hardware available in Europe. Are these units mostly sold in the US?
Since I didn't know it even existed, nothing of value was lost. :)

I guess I'll have to change my username soon too.
Outlook continues to be a frustrating experience no matter how many times its been supposedly improved over the years.
I would look for an entire new approach such as the likes of mailbird.
I've replaced it for all my mail personal accounts and its been pretty solid.
Note: It's still in its infancy and as far as I know there is no activesync support yet unfortunately.
Let us cavort like the Greeks of old. You know the ones I mean
Why is Uber welcome in the uk?

Being in a busy road in london, you can choke on "clean diesel" in a way petrol could only strive for!
IPv6 is an absolute fail if its reached 10 percent after 20 years.
I think we should literally dump IPv6 and then devote efforts to IPv7 in whatever form contributors to the IETF thinks it should take.

Vaporware concept applies to battery tech now as well i guess? :P
Truecrypt was great in the day, but it has been superseded:
"VeraCrypt is a free disk encryption software brought to you by IDRIX (https://www.idrix.fr) and that is based on TrueCrypt 7.1a."

Please tech journalists - stop trying to make the idiot of things (IoT) happen. It's not going to happen the way you want it to!
