Oh, how naive. OF COURSE THEY CAN compel you to give up your encryption password/key. It is trivial and occurs simply by denying you entry to the country until you comply.
I am increasingly feeling that importance of various leaks is being diminished constantly and consistently. At this moment it's starting to feel that it's utterly irrelevant what new information comes out about Hillary and/or Trump. The supporters of both have made up their minds and they basically plain DON'T CARE. Can anything be done about it? No idea.
On Macs I use Safari first, Chrome second and Chrome only on Windows. Safari runs circles around Chrome, so I definately wouldn't like Safari becoming "as fast as Chrome" as it would indicate making it slower than it currently is.
No, you're the fucking idiot. That is precisely what Calydor is saying. I'd love to see John Deere try that bullshit on a farm. The unlucky sap they hire to impound the tractor would be looking down the barrel of a 12 gauge shotgun.
Pointing a 12 gauge shotgun at law enforcement does not usually end well for the person holding the shotgun.
Ah not really. That number is thrown around by "fancial advisors" to get people to invest with them. It depends on the asset classes one chooses and the years you look at. (The linked article also assumes one bought right after the Crash of '29) And that doesn't mean it will continue. And much of those returns were from the end of WWII to about 2000. Things are slowing down and with the Baby Boomers retiring and selling their holdings to buy their Harley Davidson motorcycles and Land Yachts, expect returns to be in the mid-single digits. The rate the financial planners I know are using 5% for retirement planning.
Ah, no. The stock market consists of a single asset class: stocks.
Why would anyone pay $600M for something with annual revenues of $460M? Best hopes of 5 years to recover the investment, but more likely 10 or more years? That makes no sense.
Because recovering your entire investment in 5-10 years is considered a very good outcome? You do realize that the stock market returns as a whole over the long term are in the ballpark of 10% per annum, right?
Gawker could've considered not breaking the law in the first place (meaning there would be no legal case to begin with). Secondly, after they got caught and taken out to court, it takes a really special kind of stupid to ignore a judge's order. Had they obeyed it, chances are they would've been given a slap on the wrist. Gawker had it long time coming.
Alternatively, Apple could make laptops that don't have massive heating issues and ridiculous failure rates. 2009 to 2013 Macbook Pros have absolutely ridiculous failure rates and the new models aren't that much better.
Is this why I am seeing so much more older Macbooks still in operation and functioning just fine compared to Windows laptops? You're funny.
Why would it be awkward? The friend suggestions are shown to YOU. It's not like Facebook is gonna scream at your friends "LOOK AT WHAT FRIENDS I JUST SUGGESTED TO JOHN!".
I think it's exactly the way it's supposed to be. The option to use alternative installation sources is there, but you have to manually enable it and you most definately don't get to bitch about it if you get into trouble.
Facebook is being led by a leader who promptly reacts to challenges facing his company. If this was supposed to paint Facebook/Zuck in some sort of negative light... it managed to do the completely opposite.
The saddest thing about systemd is not systemd itself, but rather how it highlights the big problems of the Linux "community". People, init systems were a solved problem more than a decade ago. Can we spend all this wasted time and effort on something that actually does need major improvement and that a significant amount of users actually care about instead? Pretty please?
and then almost lost her mind when she asked me if there was some easy way to go back to Windows 8 and I had to tell her no.
Why did you lie to her? There is a 30 day grace period during which reverting back from Windows 10 to previous Windows version is roughly 3-4 mouse clicks away.

I live in the EU and would very much like for EU bureaucrats to stop fucking up "the market" with their meddling. Calling something "making an even playing field" while in reality advancing the exact total opposite, a protectionist agenda, just takes the fucking cake. Thanks, but no thanks.
Slashdot Mirror
is that the TOR network is so badly designed it apparently can be switched off entirely by a central authority.

No one I know has ever paid money for pirated media. That's kind of the entire point. What is this drivel about business models?
Advertising and/or malware distribution. Don't be dense.

The "most inherit it" is a fallacy. Look at the Forbes 500 list and you will realize more than half the people on it are self-made.

Facebook would have to be pretty retarded to NOT have this obvious feature. I'd be rather shocked if it wasn't added a very long time ago.
It stops mattering when the companies in question have a near-stranglehold on the flow of information received by the public.
Except for the tiny little problem of firearms not occuring naturally in this universe.
MacKeeper is the biggest distributor of Mac MALWARE. WTF?
Regular "normal" people and small business owners. I wish I was kidding.

Even the worst hosts provide backups? I see you are new to this whole hosting thing. Oh, and to how "normal" users behave.
