Useful idiots like Merkel just brought on the much needed police state. Once those pesky rapefugees are gone, they'll be using those tools on the native population.
I live in a place where it's unfashionable to say certain things. The only reason it's unfashionable is because a vocal minority have deemed my speech "hateful" even though it's free.
The fact that my free speech can now get me barred from establishments is on par with the ideologies we conquered in the 20th century.
I should be able to say: 1.that abortion should/should not be abolished 2.gays can/can not marry 3. women are/are not fundamentally different than men 4. Illegal immigrants should/should not be able to stay in my country 5. Islam is/ is not a violent, hateful, and supremacist organization. 6. Apple and Macs are / are not the best computers around. 7. PCs are / are not the best computers around.
Without fear of reprisal or imprisonment. The fact that statements like this are being punished in western democracies is frightening and a sign we are in critical decline.
You don't hear about airlines complaining about restrictions flying over military bases or other "top secret" places.
Put a permanent flight path block over the area and be done with it. "Our fuel costs jump an extra hundred dollars because we had to fly around a flight restriction which incurred a 10 cent increase on a ticket price."
What I find hilarious is how Slack came about. It's the best example of recreating the wheel I can imagine. There is no reason AOL couldn't have made AIM into what Slack is today.
And yet corporations pony up tons of cash for the privilege of using it when there are a ton of chat programs around that use the same thing.
I need to start thinking like a fashion designer. What's old is new and what is new is old.
Maybe I should resurrect PDAs again, oh wait they already did that with Tablets.
Knowing Lucas's plans for the franchise "should make every Star Wars fan send a note of gratitude to whoever at Disney decided to buy the franchise and take it away and out from under Lucas' control."
Knowing what we got with Disney (vacuum space force protection, a complete rehash of a New Hope in TFA, every annoying SJW thing under the sun, Rose), I would rather take my chances with Lucas.
At least he writes a coherent storyline. After The Last Jedi we now have to do away with Death Stars, Star Destroyers, and their Dreadnoughts and instead have tiny little scrappy doo space ships that light speed kamikaze each other.
Calling them that is an insult to every victim of the Holocaust. I'm old enough to have known dozens of survivors, and you are insulting them with that hyperbole.
This is my favorite new line of argument from MAGA chuds. It's the most cynical kind of virtue signaling.
But before you spout off defending the memory of people who were victims of the Holocaust, maybe we should ask a few Holocaust survivors what they think:
I have a hard time believing that in 2018, the gov't & its contractors, aren't locking down national security military secrets better than this. It's so close to unbelievable to me, that I have to wonder if this is misinformation left on a honeypot server. If the US gov't is really this loose with their classified information at this point in history....
I tell myself the same thing. I'm almost willing to bet this is a honeypot operation and the leaked data is otherwise useless or better yet has faults built in that we can manipulate.
If not, there better be extreme punishments involved for the contractor in question and it should be through the military court system.
And how in the hell do they not notice 614 f*cking GIGABYTES of data being transferred? Their sysadmin just sat there and thought, "Derp derp, I wonder who is transferring so much data to IP addresses based in the far east?"
You'd be surprised how quickly retooling and training can occur when there's a need.
And the debt is meaningless. Remember the old adage: when you owe the bank 100 million dollars, that's there problem.
The US has renigged on their debt obligations before (hid it with a devaluation and gold confiscation in the 30s) but got away with it. It would be easy to make most of it disappear again. Whether the credit agencies care will be up for debate.
Who doesn't want their greatest rival to be struggling?
While I want to watch China suffer another two centuries of "shame" (which most working poor Chinese don't even care about), America needs a worthy rival.
Otherwise, this country stagnates which is what has happened since the Soviet Union went belly up in 1991. Another cold war won't hurt anyone and would probably start another space race. All good things in my eyes.
Innovate away ON YOUR OWN China, just don't expect to get the free USA ride you've been getting this entire time to keep going.
Pretty sure the order of causes are corruption and water mismanagement followed by climate change being the crack that drained their fresh water supply.
I work from home and couldn't take how unreliable home class internet is.
Now shelling out for business class. 100mbps is nice, but the $115 bill after the year long introductory rate ends will hurt. At least I get free cloud hosting and a 20gb Linux web server to play sysadmin.

Reduce, REUSE, recycle.
The order is the importance. Recycling is the last thing you want to do.

All apart of the plan.

If you don't have the means to enforce it or collect abroad, it's effectively useless.
We can begin to see the death of a brand and company.
In honesty, I'd love to see Apple fall back into obscurity. Their products suck and are over priced.
Funny thing about predictions, they're easily able to be BS'ed and in 33 years time, no one is going to remember if they were right or not.
For all we know, there may be an even better technology that comes out that is cheaper and even better than solar energy or wind.

Windows 10 for Arm devices has a 64bit emulation layer for non native applications.
Balmer and Gates are gone. It would behoove us to think it's the same company it once was. I wouldn't under estimate them.

I don't think you'll have any problem with suspended students trying to sneak back into school.
"But please Principal! I really want to go to class!
Out of school suspension for a teenage misfit is equivalent to forced paid leave for a professional. Might as well call it vacation.
