Being fat is another indicator of wealth. In the medieval days, being plump meant you were eating well and thus meant you came from wealth. Ergo, found the rich guy.
I can understand copyright infringement when a movie is still in the theaters. However, once the video is made available to you, you are free to make a backup copy for your own purposes. No one knows when or how you made the backup. *hint*, *hint*

we know much much more about our brains than we did in the 19th century, magnetic-resonance imaging, higher resolution xrays and what have you. further, we can control current with much more advanced circuitry where we won't e.g. accidentally deliver 20A of current because someone hooked up a wire incorrectly.
so we know electroshock therapy works but we also knew it created a whole host of troubling problems. today we also have TMS (it's tDCS but with an electromagnetically induced current, so nothing is physically touching you) which is much more focused for specific ailments. take a look at the wikipedia page, it's chokful of useful nuggets of learning information
Guess what, bro. Your car has a shitty noise floor, so sound quality is pointless. Even if you have a more sound proofed german car, you are still listening to an overly compensated EQ that I'm betting you don't have control over (no the bass/mid/treble settings is not control).
Nothing in the latter quoted section conflict with the former quoted section.
They don't share your information, they will market on behalf of partners (that to me sounds like this company screens their partners and contains all interaction with their data to themselves, not the partners).
Obviously trip logging for the GPS aspect of the application. If they tout a feature to find your vehicle and see driving history, then wouldn't they *need* to log trips?
Lastly please point out an American company that would not be guilty of obstruction of justice if they did not comply with a legal obligation (e.g. subpoena and warrant)
Toll calls were real back then. It wasn't hard to make BBS' reconsider that policy. Between 2 and 6 am, spoof a few hundred toll calls would typically cause that BBS to go missing the next month or continue without the callback functionality.
I'm thinking about reality, and catchign this problem may be very difficult.
What if this company (before it had strict IT controls in place) allowed employees to rent EC2 servers on their CC. Well DB/Windows/SysEngineerAdmin said let me spin up an EC2 server where I can dump my shit so I don't have to do stupid vpn tricks to move data around. He then lets others use said server, then forgets about it because what's $20/mo when you're making IT money? Someone stages a prod SQL dump with a random ass name like tmp-2o2-deadbeef.dat.
Everyone ignores it.
Later someone accidentally removes index.html when rm *.html in the wrong directory.
"HEY DOES ANYONE NEED THAT?"*crickets* Now up to this point everyone thought this system engineer was just a weirdo but that's the usual M.O. for BOFH sysadmins. Life goes on as usual. Until one day an entrepreneurial hacker shodan's something completely unrelated and sees this garbage file.
"Whoa, I wonder what that does."
He downloads it but only part of it before he closes his laptop because his mom told him to go to sleep for the tenth time. Transfer aborted. Queue a ridiculous story of incompetent FBI agents, a system engineer hell bent on destroying the world, and several young teenagers who just want to hack the planet and make all the wrongs right in the world. There will be shenanigans as a new hacker friend joins their ranks but ends up being a hacker that pulled off the most epic hack 10 years earlier. Gawking at teen boobs and state of the art technology. Teaming up to create mass confusion and override security personal daily functions. All to recover the remainder of the database dump so they can share it with everyone to prove to the FBI and to the world that the system engineer is guilty and not the downloaders.
I'm going to make a movie out of this and name it Hackers. It will be a cult classic eventually.. I hope..
I actually find a majority of Indian coders I have worked with to be the most skilled and competent. I have found that a strict development process is key in any coding shop and all the complaints you have are a symptom of a bad leader. Zero initiative is solved by showing a backlog and being quick to fire. After a few heads roll, people will start showing initiative to not get fired. Sloppy coding is solved with linting tools and style enforcement upon merge request. Usage issues are not the developers problem but should be coming from your QA team building valid tests for your described corner cases. Documentation is solved with peer review and spot checking. Peers ensure code is documented to satisfaction, scrum master ensures documentation is a task that gets completed.
Instead of being racist and casting a negative light on all, or excuse me a vast majority of, Indian coders how about you take a step back and think about why that kind of culture is allowed to perpetuate in the first place.

2006 housing bubble. same thing. when you see a bubble forming, hop on that shit. then hop off the gravy train when you realize suckers are getting in (mom and pop investors getting into BTC as example)
a) there was a transaction malleability issue which could be exploited for free bitcoins on the mtgox platform. this is rumored to have happened, thus someone could have had a database entry of 6000 BTC when in reality his wallet was already emptied. trades on mtgox were offchain.
b) if you own the platform, then you can turn an invalid scenario into a valid one.

Bonus and stock manipulation does not cause incentive for CEOs to conflict with shareholder interests. That is literally the opposite of what CEOs are supposed to do. They are supposed to follow the interests of shareholders or face rejection and replacement, and the interest of shareholders is to squeeze out another penny of profit wherever possible. Companies were not always like this, they acted in the best interest of the CEO and chairman of the board. But then a lawsuit set case law which forced companies to act for the good of their shareholders, not the good of mankind.
So we actually created this culture 40 or 50 years ago. We have also grown our population by 1/3 since then. You think it will be *easy* to unite the country in this change? I have a bridge to sell you...

KDE has bad memory leaks. I use it extensively as a desktop and not a week goes by without having to jump to a console to kill an app or have to physically reboot because the lock screen has decided to leak all of my physical ram and swap space. Every release I report the bug, every release the bug just moves to another part of the system. I have given up on PIM because akondi is a crashing POS. KDE's KIO plugin architecture is cool but useless because all files must be copied temporarily to be given a file handle to third party apps. So if you have a 2GB mp4 file on an sftp drive somewhere, it will copy the entire file before playing it. KIO was introduced back in KDE3, so when I complain about a buggy feature in KDE it's because it has been buggy for the past decade.
Lets not get into how all the different KDE addon libraries are a breeding ground for malware.
did you watch the fight? it wasn't fake, it was blast from the past mayweather and mcgregor actually put up a good fight. this is what the pacquiao v mayweather fight should have looked like. fuck you "it's fake anyway". this ain't wrestling, son.
And you are literally paying for the time, there is a hardcoded timeout between accessing the reprogram function and enabling the new key. That said, there are always ways around this functionality.
Definitely found a fake song while looking for the real one.
In one of my playlists I have a song called JK Pharrell which is an obvious cover of the Move That Dope single by Pharell and Pusha T. Except its not Pusha T nor Pharell on the track. I fully believe the article and hope I don't come across any other bad clones.
Kind of like how SSH always treats your initial connection like a telnet connection? And warns you that unless you have authenticated the remote identity you should treat it as though unauthorized individuals are monitoring your traffic.
I am going to assume you meant it's always been stupid how browsers handled unauthenticated HTTPS certs. At the very least its necessary to warn about unauthenticated connections for all browser users, uneducated and experts alike. However, power users should be allowed to enable a switch to avoid glaring popup messages about SSL certificates. Ultimately this is solved via extensions since this is not a use-case for the typical browser user, so your complaint is really one of personal inconvenience.
The real purpose of Let's Encrypt is that it gives another layer of security to the typical browser user. More websites can exist with security with the minimum authorization necessary (control of the domain), but there still exists obvious methods of abuse. These abuses are countered by Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) which can turn an abusive site into a site that throws warning messages in most typical browser use cases.
