All commonwealth nations get 2 years in all the other nations. Once you get your GB visa, you should be able to live and work in Australia, NZ and even Canada for 2 years each. I knew a bunch of Canadians who were in Australia on that visa. I don't know if there's an age limit though.
Exactly. Package management with dependencies is what Linux does RIGHT! Look at Android and it's horrible "you have to update the whole damn firmware because nothing is managed by packages!"
Apks and MacOS app containers add so much redundancy. If you have a library with a security problem, you can now have 50 of that library with a security problem scattered everywhere. In the Linux world with proper package management, if develops use the system libraries, then their apps get those security updates.
Yes yes, cab companies have all those, but they don't have a way to tie the ride to you if you pay with cash. If police suspected something, they'd have to figure out which cab you were on and request the logs (which don't include names if you pay with cash) or video (more common now I bet for liability, but even then those videos probably roll over after a few days unless a driver specifically saves them).
A lot of this randomware comes in the form of javascript files. I'm sure it could be adapted to encrypt your Linux machine and, if you have/boot mounted, replace your EFI bootloader as well (MBR might be a bit tricky. It'd have to monitor/wait for when you use sudo).
I have no idea if Linux ransomware exists, but if it doesn't, it's not due to it being technically non-feasible. There are some safeguards that make it more difficult yes, but not impossible. When Mac OS started getting more popular, we started seeing more Mac malware. Get off your high horse.
I think it'd be funny if we found out they actually created the ransomwear. Double points: BTC for people who pay to unlock their machines + donations for people who use this fix.
In graduate school, I asked a Chinese student about this. He said that anyone can get past the filters in China. He did it all the time. He also said, no one cared. The Chinese government didn't care if you did, but they cared if you talked about it. If you start posting things, blocked links or discussing politics in public forums in China, you can expect a knock on your door, fines, jail or worse. But as long as you don't talk about it, you can view whatever the fuck you want.
I have friends who tell me "if x wins, I'm moving to Canada," and I just have to say, "No..no you're not. You're a moron."
Having living in Australia and New Zealand, I know what visa processes are like. It's involved. Unless you're in a skilled profession, in an in-demand field and are willing to sign your life away, you're not going to Canada. If you're under 30, you CAN easily get into AU/NZ (and if you just graduated or are enrolled in classes, Ireland as well), thanks to Holiday Work Visas. They're only good for a year, and you're not going to get sponsored for longer unless you're skilled (or you get someone to fall for you and get a partner visa).
We have been slowly altering our world for centuries. We've bread sweeter fruits, starchier corn, turkeys that cannot reproduce on their own, cows with unregulated muscle growth, white tigers (not a species, a trait sought after so most of them are inbred), etc. The rice we eat today has been entirely cultivated and most likely would not survive on its own in the wild without modern agriculture.
Wireless networks are no where near short of bandwidth. There was an article posted on Slashdot a few months back stating as much, at least in the US. Three in Ireland/UK offers unlimited (they throttle after 5GB) and back when I lived in the US I was on Sprint's unlimited plan. It's more than possible.
So, they'll refuse to let Egypt spy on their users, but they have no problem what so ever with allowing the US government full access to search everything? (Or did everyone suddenly forget about PRISM?)
Airport security does suck everywhere. Australia's is pretty bad. Germany's is pretty terrible too, but the worst, by far, out of any country I have every flow through, is Americas. I have never had more confrontations with security than in the US. Most other countries don't require ID for flying domestically (and fun fact: America doesn't either. Next time, refuse. It takes a little longer, but it's worth it. The US government has no right to restrict transit if you don't have papers. In most EU countries you are required to have ID on you at all time. Not in the US).
Airport security is a joke. It's not security, it's security theatre. They've never stopped a single damn person intending harm ever in the history of their existence. Fuck them, fuck airports and fuck the TSA.
Not to mention, the TSA searches are totally and completely illegal and unconstitutional. Back when airport security was private, it was the airlines getting together to set the standards and searches were part of their terms of service. When the federal government starts doing it, it now becomes a 4th amendment violation. Texas tried to return airports to private security and was bullied by the federal government and gave up the fight. The new mm-wave body scanners have a massive false positive rate and are effectively useless.
Now Amazon needs to deal with their entire counterfeit sex toy problem. If you're not aware, never buy sex toys off Amazon. Most of their products are low quality, counterfeits of more respectable brands. Often they're unsafe or made to low standards. Most manufactures will stop selling to any store that uses Amazon.
Exactly! People forget Sanders also talks about arming Jordanians, giving the "war back to them" and all that other Clinton/Obama bullshit. He is a war monger just like his predecessors. Nothing will be different under him. Obama never closed Gitmo, still bombed the fuck out of eastern states, faked a Bin Laden assassination, created ISIL/ISIS, passed Romney-care (which puts all the profits in the hands of for-profit health care) and has generally be just as evil and corrupt as every person behind him.
False promises are a part of the deal. When a candidate promises to be pro-life, you're an idiot for voting down that line because the only way to change Roe vs Wade has nothing to do with the president; it requires either a new supreme court decision or a constitutional amendment.
American Flags are made in prisons by people paid $2 an hour. You like having your flag that says "Made in the USA." Remember, it's still made my slaves.
They get some money from their families. There are limits on what they can give inmates. They can also earn money from working in programs. American Flags are made in women's low security correctional facilities where they are paid $2 an hour.
Prison is the only form of slavery explicitly allowed by the US constitution. But it's not the only form of slavery. The other is a form of voluntary indentured servitude. It's called the military.
Since the past decade. Enumerating viruses is useless. There are too many. Machine learning can be fooled and has high false positive rates. A French researcher at Kiwicon in 2014 showed that the parsers most AVs use run as the System user. He was able to use broken JPEGs and PDFs against the parser and get code execution as the System users (read: you don't even have to open the file. The virus scanner ran the executable code!)
Active virus scanners are totally worthless today and actually increase the attack vectors to machines. Passive virus scanners are about equally as useless.

Exactly. This does absolutely nothing to stop any of the NSA programs. Did we....did we forgot about PRISM? Seriously?
and we have svchost.exe too (it's called SystemD)

Really? We have had this form of encryption for decades.
When you look at terrorism in general, the majority of it is State sponsored ... with those States being America, the UK and EU members.

Painless and unnecessary
I kinda have to agree with you on this. Why is USB-C setup so that a bad cable can fry your laptop?

People don't understand that you can't really shutdown an abstract concept.
Correct, very correct, usage of the word literally.

The ATI/AMD open source video drivers are really good; much better than the close source offerings from both AMD and nVidia.
Keep in mind they are in every XBoxOne and PS4
